Blame that on NIMBYs in your neighborhood who do not want an unsightly cellphone tower there.
Don't forget the NIMBYs that think cell towers cause brain cancer or something silly like that. Local school district wanted to enter into a contract with one of the carriers (Sprint, I believe) to clamp cellular equipment on light poles at schools. It would have brought much needed funding into the schools (several thousand dollars per month) - but the 'concerned parents' and NIMBY crowds lobbied against the deal, and won, based on a lot of unfounded nonsense.
Kind of a bummer, really... especially since these same types of folks would end up calling people like me at AT&T Wireless and complaining about their poor coverage. Go figure.. ;)
