Residents protest against tower at West Lake Park in Hollywood

HOLLYWOOD, Fla. ā€“ Rita Lipoff is among the Broward County residents who are protesting against a tower at West Lake Park, a Broward property in Hollywood.

They have been fighting against it for about a year.

ā€œThere are a multitude of rules and laws and procedures that they violated to put this tower here,ā€ Lipoff said on Friday.

To be able to build the tower without restrictions, the county swapped land with Tamarac.

The 300-foot tower is part of the countyā€™s plan to replace the antiquated emergency radio system that failed first responders after the 2018 Valentineā€™s Day massacre at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.

Officials said the project is slated to be done by the end of the year.
