Subject: 7-18-23 Council meeting.....Legislative positions In reviewing the agenda for the 7-18 meeting, there is an agenda item which recommends positions on various pieces of legislation. Some of the legislation reviewed does not appear to have a direct impact on the City.
The IRC is a city council subcommittee that looks at pending legislation and how that legislation could affect the "The IRC was established to allow a more comprehensive focus on pending legislation that could impact the City." That's a pretty broad definition.
Under prior councils Erik Peterson employed a narrowed definition. He advocated that the Council only take positions on that legislation having a probable direct impact on the City.
I implore you to honor the narrower definition and not take positions on A,B,D,E,or L.
Thank you.

I urge support of D) SB 253 — Climate Corporate Data Accountability Act. business entities with total annual revenues in excess of $1,000,000,000 and that do business in California, defined as "reporting entities," to publicly disclose to the emissions reporting organization
Supporting this bill allows for greenhouse gases and toxins to be reported and thus to be held legally liable in all energy cases. Without liability, the safety, maintenance, conservation and recycling of multiple, current energy systems is inhibited from occurring in a timely manner.
This affects all sectors.
Item 17
Please don't allow the construction of cellular towers or unknown devices in the city. It's proven that cellular waves do exist and a person can feel the waves stinging when too close to a cellular object. The disappearance of landline telephones from the CI & public sectors shouldn't be tolerated. The safety, practicality & reliability of landlines is far superior to the convenience of cell phones. There are too many cellular towers in the city. They produce a violation of people's bodies, the limit should be set here. - Ben
