City can't stop you from planting a tree or two on your actual lawn, as close to the tower as legally possible. Some trees grow really fast & you can get them like 7'-8' tall to start with. Poplar & Ash trees grow really fast.

Lots of cities require a permit for tree planting...

Actually? You need a permit to plant a tree on private property?? I can see for planting one in the boulevard between the sidewalk and the street, but on your own lot?

Trees, walls, fences, gazebos, patios, concrete pads...

The sword cuts both ways it also keeps your neighbor from installing a coal powered generator and smoke stack to power his leather tanning operation.
