The new ordinance proposed by the Director is too <br />sympathetic to the telecommunications industry without protections for our people. <br />I OPPOSE: <br />-giving total power to Planning with no other agencies or experts involved! <br />-rushing the approval process to only 30 days! <br />-omitting provisions to protect us against 5G small cells! <br />- allowing towers at schools and day care centers! <br />Please consider Council Member Evans proposed ordinance which has clear, attainable <br />requirements. It is a start to balancing between the health, safety and welfare needs of the <br />people and the needs of the tech industry. <br />I SUPPORT: <br />-researching technology that can make this new expanded EMF tech world work <br />synergistically with our human, animal and plant bodies instead of damaging life. there is such <br />technologies that can be installed with cell towers, etc to modify the frequency making it <br />human friendly. Let's get on that and make it a requirement when new tech is installed. <br />Mahalo, <br />Terra Sutton <br />North Kohala <br />
