    I found no consideration for protecting public health and safety from exposure to the harmful effects of 5G radiation. Experts in this field have recommended minimum buffer zones from residences, hospitals, schools, etc. of from 985 feet to 1,640 feet. I found no such buffer zone requirement in the proposed ordinance.

    Since there is no research showing that this technology is safe, and there is sufficient evidence that the technology is harmful to human health, it is reasonable that a buffer zone sufficient to eliminate exposure to it's radiation should be imposed until known and potential hazards for human health and the environment have been fully investigated by scientists independent from industry.

    500 Meter buffer recommended... “Limiting liability with positioning to minimize negative health effects of cellular phone towers.” (2019) Pearce M. Environmental Research, Nov 2019; https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S0013935119306425
