Sedona City Council

Dear Mayor Adams and City of Sedona Councilors:

Thank you.

Thank you for your June 19th workshop on ‘smart meter’ concerns in Sedona with local citizens and APS.

Thank you for questioning the long-term health effects of this untested, non-UL approved ‘smart meter’ machinery.

Thank you for your decision to oppose the proposed costs associated with denying ‘smart meter’ installation.

Thank you for hearing your citizens concerns. Thank you for having the courage to take action.

Thank you for making this meeting available on line.

It makes it very easy to educate and inform others with the familiar faces of respected local leaders.

I live in the Village of Oak Creek in Big Park. It was in large part because of your brave decision to act in the best interest of your citizens that Big Park, too, decided to hold a community meeting. As some of you are aware, APS is presently not willing to attend our meeting, leaving us with the task of deciding how do we now best inform our community before this mass ‘deployment’ in a few short months?

The good news is that the question is now being asked. Local politicos are listening and learning. Thanks to you.

I have sent your meeting video to other communities throughout the Verde Valley and Prescott. Just yesterday, I sent your video to a leader less than ten miles away that had not yet heard of “smart meter”. I told him that most people have not. I had not. Now he has. Thanks to you.

The immediate goal is NO ‘smart meter’ in the Verde Valley. The larger goal is to have them removed in all of Arizona. There is a lot of work to do. Many people are now reaching out in different ways. It is starting to blossom upward and outward. Thanks to you.

My Best Regards.

    @Elaine Brown – Thank you to Elaine for your work informing the Village of Oak Creek community. Although APS may have decided to not participate in the meeting that had been planned, Sedona Smart Meter Awareness is happy to be available to give a presentation. We want everyone to be informed. Just contact us at sedonasmartmeterawareness (at) com so we can make arrangements.

    You and your kids’ iPhone has 5 antennas!!!!!

    This new 9 minute video (from WiFi in Schools Australia) follows the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency’s advice (ARPANSA Factsheet 14 – updated June 2013) on reducing wireless radiation – and explores the implications of children using wireless devices such as iPads, at home and in school.

    The video includes an explanation of SAR values, a real life test of iPads vs iPhones and ARPANSA’s practical advice on how to reduce exposure from mobile and other wireless devices.

    Let’s educate children on how to use wireless technologies safely. Protect children from (RF EME) wireless radio frequency microwave electro magnetic radiation (EMR) until long-term exposure is proven harmless.

    Safe & Smart 4 r Kids – reduce wireless radiation

    We must take action against this before time runs out. They are planning on ‘deploying’ in our beautiful Village and Sedona in January, 2014. That is 4 months, people. Once that radiation comes in, it will never leave us. Think of your children.
