Angus L.K. McKelvey <br /> Consumer Protection & Commerce Committee <br /> February 27, 2017 <br /> For the above reasons, we cannot support the current draft. <br /> At an absolute minimum, we would ask that any bill that passes provide that an <br /> entity proposing the installation, construction, development, or improvement of <br /> broadband networks must file a written request to do so with the State and affected <br /> county, and allow the counties to reject an application if the proposed installation might <br /> interfere with or overburden existing equipment. <br /> Please assure that HB 625, HD2 does not become law without a good deal of <br /> further discussion and amendment. A very real danger to public safety could <br /> inadvertently result if, for instance, civil defense operations or emergency and first <br /> responder networks were compromised by the anticipated new installations. <br /> Respectfully submitted, <br /> ?c__\ <br /> Harry Kim <br /> Mayor <br /> County of Hawai'i is an Equal Opportunity Provider and Employer. <br />
