This Wednesday, Council will take up a resolution to "authorize the City to participate as an intervener in petitioning for review of Federal Communications Commission's decision to preempt state and local regulations for cell tower siting."

Last Sunday, the 21st, Commissioner Fish attended the Portland premiere of the documentary Full Signal at the Hollywood Theater, where Director Talal Jabari was on hand to discuss his film.  

Full Signal explores the health effects of cellular technology and the activist community working to regulate the placement of antennas.

The showing was also attended by representatives of RespectPDX, a local group "advocating for respectful and responsible neighborhood wireless."
