"Stephanie Jansen, a Polk County mother who homeschools her 5- and 9-year-old children, owns property with two houses right next to the proposed site. “The cell tower will sit within 500 feet of one house, within 800 feet of the other,” she told The Defender.
Jansen’s two neighbors also homeschool. Among the three families, there are roughly 10 young children.
If constructed, the cell tower would subject the families to radiofrequency (RF) radiation 24/7. “We’re home all the time. We have no way of shutting this off or giving our bodies a break,” Jansen said.
Jansen said she’s been fighting the tower ever since she learned it would loom over her and her neighbors’ families. “Everything that I do as a parent and a mom, I put my kids’ health and safety first.”
She said she knew enough about cell towers to know they were “not good.”
Research has linked RF radiation from cell towers to negative health impacts, including diabetes and chronic immune stress."
