Aloha,
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. Give them an inch, they'll take a mile. Please
REGULATE!
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. Why should Planning speak for all residents? They're not even ELECTED
as voices of the people!
Please consider Council Member Evans proposed ordinance which has clear,
attainable permit requirements. It is a better balance between the health, safety and
welfare needs of the people and the needs of the tech industry.
Thank you for hearing my plea,
Susan Bambara
