Subject: Support Resolution 678-20 Time 6:6{04Y' By
Date -JUL 2 0 2020
Aloha Council Members,
I support the resolution because it puts public safety first by following the precautionary principle until this yet untested technology
is proven safe.
Bottom line the"precautionary principle" should apply.Such a policy approach would require the proponents of 5G to establish with
a high degree of scientific certainty that the technology is safe BEFORE we just freely allow anyone,for example,to set up a cell
tower on their home without even being required to get a permit and thereby possibly place neighbors at risk. I'm pretty sure I'll
survive with the current speed of my streaming service and won't need in the foreseeable future to wirelessly interact with my
refrigerator or other appliance or enjoy whatever other convenience 5G may offer-that is, at least until the proponents of 5G
establish with sufficient scientific certainty and testing that the technology does not pose an undue risk to the public.That's really all
that is being asked for by our concerned public here!
Mahalo,
Daniel Kanahele
