| Stick it to 'em It's only fair that AT&T pay for independent appraisals showing the value of adjacent property before and after VRAD installation. This appraisal should take into account both the reduced value due to the VRAD's presence and the increased value due to broadband availability.
I would think that a transferable full-ride subscription to whatever AT&T or its successors have to offer, a monthly charge for the current owner for the life of the mortgage (to compensate the current owner for the aesthetic loss), one-time compensation for the appraisal difference, and landscaping service or fees, would be a good place to start negotiations.
If AT&T won't meet the owner's reasonable demands, neighbors who want the service should pay the affected owner or buy the affected house.
All other utilities, including cable, power and gas, should be subject to the same requirement, but since they are already providing service to a lot of people, equipment already in place should be grandfathered.
Around here transformers are pole-mounted or in underground vaults with sidewalk grates. Cable amps are pole-mounted. There are of course traffic signals & control cabinets, but since those are approved by elected officials, they should be exempt.

| Yes in a deflated housing market that the lenders and builders created lets hold ATT accountable.
While we are at it how about a property tax refund for my house not selling for its assesed value?
People I have talked to have chosen a neighborhood with a V-Rad over one that doesnt have those services availible so should those homeonwers give ATT part of their increased value?
Not ATT's opinion just mine.

I see your point, and acknowledge that my suggestions are all pie-in-the-sky, perfect-world stuff with virtually no chance of passage.
The idea is that AT&T needs to be ultra-sensitive when they could have a large negative effect on one property, despite the positive effect for all. They are exercising a power not unlike eminent domain, in which case elected officials must pay a fair price to take the affected person's property for the public good.
With that in mind:
1. The two have nothing to do with each other. The appraisal should make that clear if there VRAD is a line item in the comparables section.
2. That's an issue you should take up with your taxing authority, which is most likely under the control of your elected officials. If they are not doing what is fair and what you want, hold them accountable.
3. Presumably they would subscribe to AT&T services and in effect give AT&T a share of their "increased value".
