OCAFN recommends the City Council to consider a moratorium, as other California Cities have for staff to study the proliferation of telecommunications causing much citizen concerns.  We are asking the city to up date accounting process for all towers/antennas within the City of Oceanside, after all these are networks.

  • Global Reaction: 

                   European Parliament Votes for Strong Protection for Citizens on RF/EMF

  • Current Law: Cities and Providers must show significant gap in coverage, alternative sites, and state and local DOES have authority to permit/deny per local siting criteria zones/codes.

OCAFN with the Residents of

Oceanside, Request:

An immediate moratorium on all wireless permits provides time to :

-Study & Analyze possible proliferation that could possibly create "Hot-Spots" of Radiation.

-Create an inventory list on all sites/antennas/towers. (Oceanside does not have !)

-Produce an Educational Public Hearing that include (citizens committee, staff, and wireless industry)

-Creating an overlay map for for existing towers and antennas.

-Obtain a truly independent 3rd party RF analysis which shall consist of ALL accumulative RF per site and shall also include distance to the next closest site.

-Creating an updated wireless ordinance (Over 26 plus CA Cities Have-Why not Oceanside?)The  City of Oceanside current ordinance has not been up-dated since 1997! This should include clear defined sitting standards, providing the maximum legal safety standards possible.

  • The Matrix Consulting Report for the City of Oceanside (Feb.9,2009) page 23, last line. "The wireless ordinance zoning and development standards are NOT CURRENT" - Our City Council needs to be held accountable!

DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY ANTENNAS ARE IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD? 

 

 

 

Who We Are

When this advocate group was started in 2007 Oceansides Wireless Ordinance had not been updated since 1997! 12 years!

 We are a diverse grassroots group located in Oceanside, Ca with concerned residents and other neighborhood organizations. We are joining together to prevent inappropriate cell tower/antenna placement. We believe inappropriate commercial projects have a negative impact on our right to quality of life, health and the natural environments.

  As Oceanside Residents it is our right to know potential for health risks effecting our neighborhoods, our properties, thus enhancing our investments in our homes, and saving natural environments, and our long term health.

  We are asking our City Council to keep up with new technologies, and create a master plan that insures health, life and vitality back to our neighborhood(s) to keep property rights & values in mind as well as the environmental impacts.  We ask City Council to do a complete study on all  towers/antennas in the city to make proper assessments.
