AT&T is proposing to install a new wireless communication facility at
350 Amber Drive needed by as part of its San Francisco wireless
network. AT&T proposes locating new antennas on a new tower screened
within the existing eucalyptus tree line behind the SF Police Academy.
Plans and photo simulations will be available for your review at the
meeting.
You are invited to attend an informational community meeting located at
Noe Valley/Sally Brunn Library at 451 Jersey Street, April 10, 2024, at
6:00 p.m. to learn more about the project.
If you wish to attend the meeting remotely via Zoom, please call (415)

If you have any questions regarding the proposal and are unable to attend
the meeting, please contact the AT&T Hotline at (415) 646-0972 and a
specialist will return your call. Please contact the San Francisco Planning
Department at (628) 652-7600 if you have any questions regarding the
planning process.
NOTE: If you require an interpreter to be present at the meeting,

ATT is proposing a new “wireless communication facility” amongst the eucalyptus trees behind the police academy.
Federal law only permits objections based on aesthetics and safety (fire).
Aesthetically, Duncan Street neighbors (adjacent and in the condos above) cherish overlooking Glen Park and do not want it blighted by giant cell towers with multiple antennas. The eucalyptus trees are not permanent given their non-native and fire danger, severely have been removed this year.
Safety: Wireless antennas have been linked to many fires – in high winds CA & CO. The city of Malibu was nearly decimated and now has all communication lines underground. (as have many other cities for safety and health) ehtrust.org
other points –
-more antennas will not improve reception due to topography, trees and WIND.
– research published by the national association of realtors documented that property values decrease when a cell tower (wireless communication facility) is located near homes and environs.
– more people are experiencing “electro sensitivity” due to the ubiquitous amounts of wireless radiation in our homes, neighborhoods (cell phones, towers, baby monitors, house alarms, water and PGE meters – especially in multiunit dwellings in units near the location of meters) acute symptoms include: sleeplessness, anxiousness, headaches, fatigue. Non-ionizing radiofrequency radiation or electro magnetic radiation (like in your microwave oven) breaks DNA and has long term effects. In 2018 the NIH National Toxicology Program reported on a $30M 10 year study
linking 3G (old flip phones) radiation to glial cells in brains, renal disease and heart schwannomas. The telecom industry buried the report. The research has been replicated by the Ramazzini Institute in Italy. Firefighters in So Cal reported “foggy brain and slow reflexes” and brain scans documented changes linked to cell towers atop their fire house – now the national firefighters union advises against antennas near firehouses.
Antennas are a form of involuntary exposure. If we choose to have wireless in our homes we can do so with our routers. We do not need the exposure in our entire neighborhood!
Once an antenna is placed there is no measurement of how much radiation it is emitting at different times even though the FCC sets limits, they are not enforced.
Please oppose this blight, fire hazard. Insist on fiber optic wired to the premises telecommunications. ATT is trying to compete with cable at our expense.

May you be well,
