I oppose Item #4. The new ordinance proposed by the Director
does not have enough protections for our community.
It gives almost total power to Planning and Telecom with no
other agencies or experts involved. It rushes the approval
process to only 30 days. It has no provisions to protect us
against 5G small cells, and most of all it freely allows towers at
schools, playgrounds and day care centers. This cannot be
tolerated; there is a plethora of documented dangers
available.
Please consider Council Member Evans proposed ordinance
which has clear, attainable requirements. It is the perfect
balance between the health, safety and welfare of the people
and the needs of the tech industry.
