We have gone through similar, but received adequate warning and
the town worked very well with us to make sure we could get equipment
protected. If they are not willing to work with you maybe contact your
subs and get them to call the town letting them know they cannot live
without service for a month (or more realistically two). Maybe if they
feel the numbers it will help them to work with you.
I have used a similar strategy for getting towers approved for
locations I have met resistance. Brought along a number of
residential/business who are all voting members (that is key) to the
meetings stating they wanted our service and that the tower was needed
for them to get cost effective access.
Good luck and hopefully you can get them to work with you.

The contract they have says the city only has to give them 48 hours...
they actually gave 72 hours. A judge is not going to grant an injunction
when they followed the contract that both parties agreed upon.

I know which direction I would go. An injunction only puts the project
on hold to force everyone to come and talk. I have used this method
before with good success. I would most certainly have a lawyer ready
to contact a judge if you are not getting anywhere. What do you have to
lose?
