Dear Hans

I just thought I'd write and let you know what is happening here in Red
Deer Alberta.  We as a community have rallied many community members in
several areas of the city to oppose the installation of the
communication towers proposed for the schools in our city.  in total we
are looking at the erection of 17 towers of 30 metres and under.  The
towers are to improve commuication between schools and on the computors
in the schools.  They are hoping to alleviate the expense of rent from
one of the companies and extra expense incured with fibre optics.

We, at least 20, attended a Municipal Planning Commission Meeting last
week in which we were able to present our concerns along with the
arguments for the proposed system from the school board.  As a result
the commission has recommended their decision be tabled and that the
community and school boards hold some meetings.  It sounds like we will
have the provincial government as mediator.  A planner or others from
the environment branch will be apointed.  The municipal planning
commission realizes that this is a bigger issue and that policy will
have to be developed for the future as community becomes more aware of
the risk factors involving emf's.  

I am really happy that the school board kept highlighting the fact that
there already is a lot of emf pollution out in the community already.  He
spoke of the taxi's, the radio and television and we were also informed of
all the individual home owners that are now placing applications for
personal towers.  I have noticed these popping up all over almost
overnight.  They are not so tall, just a bit taller than trees in the
vicinity.  A scary thought though that every 2nd or 3rd house might be
having these towers in their backyards.  What kind of issues are a concern
here???  I am yet to fing out the use for these.  Are they a replacement
for tv dishes or are they bigger and better for the computer and maybe
more??

Well, this is the story from Red Deer.  Now I guess I need to gather up
the ammunition and be prepared to recommend policy for our city and
surounding community.  i have heard rumours that perhaps we will provide
the groundwork for a provincial policy.

I need help and support!  I am sure you and contacts have ideas for
creating policy and ideas on what definitely needs to be given as
information on which to base this recommendation of policy????  The info
on the emf guru site is excellent but at this point I am not sure what
to zero in on to make a clear, concise point and presentation.  We sure
can use some expertise here - ideas on policy Hans or who I should
contact???

Thanks Hans and all the others from emf guru, etc.  Thanks for taking
the time to read my message.  I look forward to your response.

In Red Deer,  Susan Spyker-Noonan
