To whom it may concern,
I oppose Item #4 because I support Council Member Cindy Evans' proposed
telecommunications ordinance, Bill 194, which had already been forwarded to you. The new
ordinance proposed by the Director is too sympathetic to the telecommunications industry
with not enough protections for our community.
It gives almost total power to Planning 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!
It allows towers at schools and day care centers!
Please consider Council Member Evans proposed ordinance which has clear, attainable
requirements. It is the perfect balance between the health, safety and welfare needs of the
people and the needs of the tech industry.
Thank you for listening, Angelika Hofmann
