I couldn't find such a list, but you might find reading this old eham
thread useful for explaining why there are no such lists:

How friendly do you want? No tower restrictions of any kind? There
are various degrees. For example, just about any city or county that
has a tower ordinance, will tend to restrict the installation of ham
radio towers in some way. If you're serious, just check with the city
or county planning department for tower ordinances. You'll also find
that tower policy is highly dependent on those making the decisions.
Without rigid guidelines, a traditionally friendly planning
department, might easily become hostile if the composition and
membership changes.

Good luck.

Most rural areas are very ham friendly when it comes to antennas but
you can get blamed for every flake of snow on their TV. I was once
getting blamed for periodically wiping out all the TV in about 4
blocks. It turned out that one of the people who complained to the FCC
about me owned the source of the problem. Her antenna mounted preamp
would break into oscilation.

Anyway I have found that most places where you can find $300K+ homes
in close proximity to run down mobile homes is usually pretty ham
friendly.
