Hello Everyone,
Here’s the link for
tomorrow’s meeting:
https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZMoce6orD8vHdLvbH-ouFd-ZMb05s_s29FX
Quick agenda:
1. Follow up on Section 106 review and any updates
2. Upcoming educational outreach -- community board meetings and presentations in September - MCB3, MCB7, MCB12, BkCB5, BxCB2, BxCB5, SICB1, SICB3 (see attached list of Equity Districts getting the most 5G
towers)
3. IMPORTANT - Federal bills that threaten our local control over wireless placement. Of the 90+ federal bills, just over 50 are of concern to us. About 11-12 bills are being fast tracked through the US House and Senate. They include HR3557, that will prohibit moratoria, and,
along with HR4141, virtually eliminate environmental and historic preservation review, the very kinds of review that are now underway in NYC by the site developer for the 5G towers. This is an unprecedented consolidation of federal power in favor of the wireless industry.
These bills run against the tide of opposition in NYC and the rest of the country and is meant to silence our voices.
See letter on national and cyber security and position paper on local control over wireless permitting, respective fact sheets, and comments on HR4141. Important to educate our US Reps on the issues -- Rep Nadler and the entire NYC
delegation of US Reps.
