Subject: Oppose Item #8
I oppose item 8 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 allows for towers and antennas in ALL zoning districts with NO permitting process and
not enough requirements. It gives total power to Planning with no other agencies
involved.
Please consider Council Member Evans proposed ordinance which has clear, attainable
permit requirements. It is the perfect balance between the health, safety and welfare
needs of the people and the needs of the tech industry.
