> working with PA Senator Stewart Greenleaf.

Section 603. Ordinance Provisions.--* * *
> (m) A municipality shall not adopt an ordinance, regulation or plan
or
> take any other action that precludes amateur service communications
or
> that in any other manner does not comply with the limited preemption
of
> the Federal Communications Commission Amateur Radio Preemption order,
> published at 101 F.C.C. 2d 952 (1985), or any regulation related to
> amateur radio service adopted under 47 CFR Part 97. Any ordinance or
> regulation adopted by a municipality involving the placement,
> screening, or height of an amateur radio antenna based on health,
> safety, or aesthetic considerations must reasonably accommodate
