WiMAX is available using both licensed and unlicensed spectrum. Some of the unlicensed spectrum is in the 2.4GHz range along with WiFi, so yes, in this case interference would be an issue. However, any WISP worth its salt is going to be using licensed spectrum. I can't speak to what these Tower people are using.
Also, saying that every WiFI AP within the 30 mile radius will cause you grief is unrealistic. WiFi APs tranmit at a much lower power than WiMAX APs, as such, the only noticable interference you would probably see would be from your neighbors (ie other WiFi APs within 300 feet or so).
