Los Angeles Unified School District Resolution on Cell Antennas
An important development - the Los Angeles Unified School District unanimously passes a resolution calling for repeal of Sectioon 704 of the Federal Telecommunications Act of 1996 that preempts states and local governments from taking environmental (i.e. human health) effects into account when denying a permit to site a FCC licensed wireless transmitter. This Resolution was introduced by LAUSD Board member Julie Korenstein who in 2000 got an ordinance in place to ban cell towers at LA City Public Schools. Many individuals and groups endorsed this new Resolution, see below, including the link to the CLOUT Petition, attached.

Nine years ago, the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) Board of Education passed a resolution opposing the placement of cellular towers on or near school property.
On May 26, 2009, the LAUSD Board unanimously passed a second resolution concerning the ongoing proliferation of wireless antennas near schools that includes a statement in favor of repealing the Telecommunication Act of 1996's preemption of consideration of health and environmental effects of wireless facilities.
