Grounds for Appeal
Project number P08-003 (MetroPCS Antenna System at WashingtonPlaza 1318 E St)
By Mark Blackburn
May 5, 2008
I am the owner of 1312 E Street, which is next door to WashingtonPlaza at 1318 E.
My building is a legal triplex and I have rented to families since I
bought the building 10 years ago.
As an ethical and responsible real estate investor and landlord I oppose adding
the proposed Metro PCS cell phone antenna system for a variety of reasons.
1.
There are over 500 legal dwelling units within 1000 feet of the proposed
electromagnetic nuisance, supporting a population of at least 1000 individuals.
I estimate that there are at least 50 different landlords within 1000
feet of your proposed EMR (electro magnetic radiation)
nuisance.
So far, there is only 1 other landlord I have spoken to who is aware of
this stealth project. Today I spoke
with another 3 other landlords who own rental buildings within 500 feet of your
proposed nuisance and none of them have received notification of it.
I believe this may be a violation of the planning commission’s
regulations for such a project, and request at the very least that the process
be re-started with the proper notifications being made to all property owners
within the statutory radius. About 80% of the dwelling units within 1000 feet
are rented out by landlords like me.
Under California Real Estate Law we are legally required to disclose to
all current and prospective tenants
any potential health threats including mold, asbestos, pesticide residues, and
electromagnetic radiation (EMR).
Already, I have two tenants who are threatening to leave due to the proposed
cell antennas. I have a unit that
will be vacated at the end of this month.
How will I ever be able to rent it out?
How much should I discount the rent to entice them to live in an EMR hot
zone? If I can’t re-rent the
unit, will MetroPCS and SHRA pay my mortgage for me?
My wife and I live within 500 feet in a rented apartment directly behind
WashingtonPlaza on F Street, where we
have rented for over 5 years. We
love our apartment, but we will definitely move away from this health hazard, if
approved, at tremendous personal expense.
And, what of our landlord?
What will you do to compensate our Landlord who will legally have to disclose
why we left the apartment, and may be unable to rent out our apartment.
Let’s just suppose that MetroPCS will pay $2000 in rent to place the
hazard on WashingtonPlaza’s roof.
What if in a 1000 foot radius there are suddenly 50 apartments that can
no longer be rented because nobody wants to live under a cell tower?
50 x average rent of $700 = $35,000.
Does SHRA hope to cost nearby property owners $35,000 so they can pocket
$2000? What is the public interest
in that?
If you inform the many property owners within the statutory
radius, maybe some of them will show up at the public meeting (if it will be
open to the public)! I am working
out of town presently and I sent my wife, Sharoll Blackburn, to the April 24
public hearing for this project and although she tried every entrance to both
the old & new portions of city hall she was turned away at all entrances, being
assured that there were no public hearings at city hall that day.
I therefore assume there was not one property owner or local resident
present to oppose the nuisance. Since
virtually none of them claim to have been notified, it does not surprise me that
no one came to oppose the proposal.
Yet, I am aware of a number of people on the block that are very concerned.
2.
A casual amount
of research will show that many people, especially the elderly are put at grave
risk by living close to cell antennas.
Meftal spas equivalent in usa is the 2nd largest medical site on the web.
Dr. Joseph Mercola has an article describing the horrible experience with
a similar apartment building for the elderly that erected a cell phone tower:
Orange
mobile phone company agreed to remove its cell phone mast -- dubbed the “Tower
of Doom” -- from the top of a
five-story London
apartment building after seven of its residents got cancer.
The cancer rate among those living on the top floor, where residents from five
of the eight flats were affected, is 20 percent -- 10 times the national
average.
The mast, along with a second mast owned by Vodafone, was put up in 1994. Since
then, residents have battled cancer, headaches and other health problems they
say are caused by radiation from the masts. Three residents have died from
cancer, while another four are still fighting the disease.
In August 2007, after a long legal battle, Orange agreed to move the mast from the
building -- to another area near homes, a public library and a primary school.
3.
Most people understand cell phone technology is new and we don’t know the
full risks. Do you know this?
Did you know that in the 1940s many government doctors were touting
occasional cigarette smoking as beneficial for the lungs?
(How much did the tobacco companies pay them)?
Our parents blindly bought into the fraudulent test results that calmed
concerns of the health risks of asbestos, nuclear energy, silicone implants and
tobacco. When the brain tumors and cancers start forming 15 years from now,
which industry leader or government official will take responsibility? Today,
cell phone use remains in its infancy and is very convenient.
But, the long-term effects are not known.
Government studies show conclusive physical harm from long term exposure
to electromagnetic energy.
For this reason it is illegal to place a cell transmitter at or near a high
school in California.
This is an appropriate law because A study by Dr. Bruce Hocking in
Australia found that children living near three TV and FM broadcast towers
(similar to cell towers) in Sydney had more than twice the rate of leukemia than
children living more than seven miles away. Yet, the occupants of WashingtonPlaza are frankly more
vulnerable than high school students and deserve the same protection.
The residents of WashingtonPlaza are among the most unhealthy,
weak, vulnerable, and disenfranchised
citizens in Sacramento.
Was this population targeted because of this?
Because they are too weak to resist? Like
the residents of the London building these
seniors remain in their apartments nearly 24x7.
This means they get constant bombardment with EMR.
I’d think it better to place this on top of the Attorney General’s
office. Those guys are there a
scant 8 hours a day and take tons of vacation.
Why pick on the most vulnerable?
MetroPCS makes millions of dollars per year.
WashingtonPlaza residents make what,
less than $18k? Are they just
expendable? Are the big
corporations controlling every decision?
4.
What safeguards are in place?
What guarantees does SHRA make that another “Tower of Doom”
scenario will not occur? Who will
examine and track the health of the residents of WashingtonPlaza
over the next few years? Have
proper baseline health examinations already been made?
Can the city afford the potential economic burden of
lawsuits arising from a building of 100
sick and dying people and their dying neighbors?
Will SHRA become known as the ‘Drugstore gel primer’ of the 2000s?
5.
I have had newborn infants
as tenants. I do not want to rent
to tenants knowing they may be getting cancer due to WashingtonPlaza’s
ability to pull in $2000 or so a month rent from MetroPCS.
I appreciate WashingtonPlaza’s
unique height and location, but
there are many other areas less populated that could serve much the same cell
zones. There is a cell tower at 15th
& D. Cell towers can be shared by
different companies. They do not
all have to have their own individual towers.
There are central locations near the train tracks that could be exploited
that are not near homes, families, and vulnerable children.
I am including a map of the registered cell towers in downtown.
Do you not notice that downtown is already very well-saturated with cell
towers compared to other parts of
Sacramento?

The above map shows the downtown area is loaded with cell towers already,
especially when compared to other high-density areas like East Sac, Arden,
Natomas or West Sac. Why do we need
to destroy the rental income of 50-odd landlords to add another?
Why can’t MetroPCS do a cooperative sharing with another existing tower?
Or, locate slightly away from such a densely populated quadrant of
downtown? What about the rail
yards? And, why does East Sac not
have any towers? Is it because they
are richer and more influential and don’t want cell towers close to their homes?
6.
As an ethical & law-abiding landlord,
I have to disclose to all current and prospective tenants the health
risks that potentially exist in my home.
Up to now, there have been no such risks to disclose.
I spend considerable effort when renting an empty unit.
I have worked very diligently to attract good people and tenants to the
neighborhood. Now, what kind of
people will I be able to recruit as tenants?
Only the trashy druggies who make a sport of killing themselves.
These are the type of people we have worked so hard to get rid of on E
Street!
7.
The proposed hazard and the health risk it will create will certainly
cause me to lose rental income and double the considerable effort I take to
locate and rent to good tenants.
Already, I have two tenants threatening to leave over the cell fiasco.
Will MetroPCS or SHRA be there to make up the shortfall due to their
actions? I’m struggling with an
adjustable rate mortgage already.
I have maximized my rental income to pay the mortgage.
But, if MetroPCS makes it impossible to rent my home out, and other
nearby homes, the neighborhood will become blighted again as homes are
foreclosed upon. Or, what if
my tenants develop cancer and sue me?
Will MetroPCS and SHRA be there to pay?
I don’t think a public agency like SHRA should undertake the enormous
potential liability for harm to it’s thousands of neighbors.

Program is designed for students entering the legal profession after undergraduate degree programs or with certain other special circumstances. As an ABA-D Program (also referred to as a J.D. or LL.M. degree), we encourage students and recent graduates in a variety of specialties to become bar-certified.
Please use this site to navigate ABA-D Program-related information and resources. The video is from the first day of North American Aerospace Defense Command's (NORAD) first ever missile defense exercise, codenamed Vigilant Ace 2014. The exercise ran from July 3-12 and included an air missile defense exercise and simulation, called Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) – the same type of defense system, known as the most advanced anti-missile system in the world, that was installed in Korea back December.
The THAAD is an anti-rocket defensive system, which provides protection against ballistic missiles launched by North Korea. They are extremely accurate and can intercept, even at a high altitude, the intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs), which are the most dangerous ballistic missiles in the world when it comes to the United States. As an example, it has already been proven by NORAD that they were able to shoot down a North Korean ICBM where to get xenical in australia at height of about 481 miles, even when it was in its descent phase.
There are several THAAD units located in South Korea: Busan, Gyeongju, and Seongju, which are very close to the North Korean border. largest of them is the facility in Seongju. There's also a unit, located at order xenical online canada the Southeastern U.S. Air Force base in Fort Greely, Alaska, known as the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD)-ready site. In total, over 160 THAAD systems have been deployed, ranging from the units with capability of intercepting intermediate-range ballistic missiles in the highest possible altitude up to the sites that can intercept incoming ballistic missiles from land, sea or the air.

The THAAD-related exercise kicked off with a simulated ballistic missile launch on July 3, 2014 and ended with a simulated missile launch of the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense system on July 12. Vigilant Ace 2014 also included a simulated aerial intercept exercise on July 5 with the THAAD missile defense system located in Alaska's Southeastern Air Force base.
According to a NORAD spokesman, the exercise went off perfectly. They noted that the exercise included some simulated intercept attempts against the North Korean Missile, which came about because they were testing the interceptor's ability to track incoming threats.
This type of exercise is usually conducted to test the readiness of THAAD's target interceptor, which is an interceptor that launches at a target missile, intercepts it and destroys with its Priligy australia cost own nuclear bombs. It's not the first time NORAD's anti-missile defense system was put to the test, however. In April 2014, NORAD conducted a joint exercise with two other air force units in Alaska, the NORAD Pacific Missile Range Facility (PRF) at Kincaid on Kodiak Island and the National Air Defense Command at Buckley Force Base in Colorado. These other exercises included the interception of missiles and simulation with an actual missile.

This time, according to the Pentagon, simulated intercept was conducted as part of Vigilant Ace 2014. They noted that the simulated missile was not a test of the THAAD system. North Korea launched four ballistic missiles at the Joint Base 4-2 in Guam retaliation to the United States' recent drills which came close to destroying their ICBMs. This is a rush transcript.

I would say that the 'pink triangle' is one Xenical 90 Pills 120mg $191 - $2.12 Per pill of the most well-known symbols in Australian literature, if not the world.
There is no more Australian symbol than the pink triangle.
In my view, the idea of a triangle or two triangles is a common one on the Australian political scene, but not the pink triangle. And, if you read 'Pink's triangle ', the 'pink triangle' is not even mentioned! It's simply there.
On my website I have a page describing various Australian symbolisms, some that might seem familiar and even a good story or two.
The story of pink triangle has been well-known for more than a decade, including in my website, but it has never seemed to catch on.
In this article it is my hope to help change that, by telling the story of 'Pink's triangle', one the world's most frequently-used symbols.
The story
Here's a summary of the timeline events what has become one of Sydney's most famous events modern times, which, sadly, has been largely Is tretinoin over the counter ignored by Australians and, for some time now, by the Australian media.
May 8, 1980. One of Australia's most famous political cartoonists is invited to an international drawing conference in Sydney's Town Hall.
Pink's 'pink triangle' at the Town Hall.
John Hewson is one of Australia's most famous cartoonists and one of Australia's most popular political cartoonists.
It's the 'Pink's triangle' that he uses for many of his cartoons.
John Hewson and his Australian political cartoon.
He is asked to give a talk by Sydney newspaper on the drugstore coupon code free shipping subject of "Australia's political cartoons and their importance to the political process."
At the beginning Voltex east london contact details of talk Hewson is asked if he familiar with the pink triangle. paper has just published a cartoon by "The Pink's Triangle", and, if Hewson is to believe what The Pink's claims, it is a cartoon that will forever be associated with him.
Here is the cartoon:
John Hewson, The Pink's Triangle.
The cartoon seems to reference how Hewson sees himself in relation to all other political cartoonists because the pink triangle is used by all in equal measure. It is not something which used by, or is regarded Gabapentin buy online australia with the same level of admiration and respect as Hewson himself, who draws these cartoons.
The cartoon is not an attack on Hewson, or even all political cartoonists, but rather an attack on any cartoonist who is not Hewson, regardless of how well-known he may be, and how good his cartoon is.
The cartoon was not widely reprinted in Sydney at the time.
Two years later, October 1983. Hewson was asked as to whether he knew about the incident in Melbourne of a woman being burnt to death by an angry mob of men at the publication 'The Pink's Triangle'. cartoon on which, Hewson's is based, in my opinion, strongly sug
