Just where do these communities get their authority to regulate part 15
devices?

This community does and what we are talking about is location placement on
top of lamp poles ect, ect and what they ban by ordiniances they make those
who to do something like that pay and hefty fees.

Ah, now we're getting down to some nitty-gritty issues.

Did you think that you would be able to put something up on
non-private property without paying hefty fees?

What would stop you from putting the device on the roof of the
tallest building in town? The fees for the use permit?

If the city REALLY wanted the station, they have the power to waive
those fees. What does that tell you?

And if the FCC was to grant you the authorization for your LP
station, would that disappear the above problems like magic?
PRB-1 does not apply to anything but an amateur radio antenna
support structure.

How did we get back to ham radio ???

Welcome to the world of zoning and permits for communication
