Protection & Welfare Committee Meeting Minutes - June 4, 2019
Chairman Shaw called the meeting to order at 7:00 PM.
Members Present: Aldermen Shaw, Spiegelberg and Rogers
Staff Present: Mayor Nold, Kitsembel, Sullivan, Freber, Pickart, Frye, Gallo, Duffy, Osborn and
Coenen
Others Present: Alds. Zwart, Ellis, Strey and Rosek and Atty. Riffle
2. a. Consider/recommend Granting Renewal 2019-2020 Alcohol Beverage Licenses:
Coenen reported the City has received renewal alcohol license applications for all establishments listed on the
resolution for Class A, B or C licenses. Licenses will take effect July 1, 2019 and will expire June 30, 2020. All
applicants meet all Chapter 12 and State Statute licensing requirements.
Motion by Spiegelberg to recommend granting renewal 2019-2020 alcohol licenses as presented; second by
Rogers. Motion carried 3-0.
2. b. Consider/recommend Granting a New 2019-2020 “Class A” Intoxicating Liquor/Fermented Malt
Beverage License to Herr’s Service, LLC:
Coenen reported Herr’s Mobil has applied for a Retail “Class A” license to sell alcoholic beverages for
consumption away from the premises. Currently, they are operating with a Class “A” beer only license and
wish to expand their alcohol sales to include intoxicating liquor/wine. The City has no quotas on Class A
licenses. The applicant meets all Chapter 12 and State Statute licensing requirements.
Motion by Spiegelberg to recommend granting a new “Class A” Intoxicating Liquor/Fermented Malt Beverage
License to Herr’s Service, LLC; second by Rogers. Motion carried 3-0.
2. c. Discussion on Possible Direction for Legislative Referral Requests:
Kitsembel reported the City received two requests for municipal legislative consideration from citizens. The
process for these types of requests that have been sponsored by an elected official is they will be referred by
the Mayor to the appropriate committee for review and direction on whether to further pursue. The first request
is regarding the City’s Litter Ordinance 9.14 which has been referred by Rosek and Spiegelberg. The citizen is
asking the City to consider increasing the litter fine to $500. Our current fine amount varies from $136 - $250,
depending on the number of violations. The Police Department averages 2 citations a year and a witness
statement would be needed to issue a citation. The Chief would need to consult with the judge on penalty
amounts and if this moves forward, an ordinance amendment would be needed. The Committee discussed a
maximum fine of $500, potentially having offenders do litter pickup as community service or pay the fine,
broaden the ordinance to have more control over yards and enforcement issues. The Committee directed staff
to pursue looking into amending our code. The second request is regarding adoption of a resolution
requesting the federal government to update their studies on the potential health risks of 4G & 5G radio
frequency emissions and publish their findings. It has been referred by Spiegelberg to consider passing a
resolution like Portland, Oregon which requests the FCC to work in cooperation with the FDA to update studies
on potential health concerns arising from RF wireless emissions concerning 4G & 5G technology. The
Committee consensus was to ask Government to update their studies and model our resolution after the
Oregon example. Once adopted, send to State and Federal agencies.
Motion by Spiegelberg to adjourn; second by Rogers. Motion carried 3-0. The meeting adjourned at 7:20 PM.

fine to $500. Current city fine amount varies from $136 - $250, depending on the number of violations. The
Police Department averages 2 citations a year for these violations.
2. Resolution requesting federal government update studies on the potential health risks of 5G radio
frequency emissions and publish findings – Alderman Spiegelberg referral of citizen request to pass a
resolution similar to Portland, Oregon (attached). Their resolution requests the FCC to work in cooperation
with the FDA to update studies on potential health concerns arising from RF wireless emissions considering
5G technology.

RESOLUTION No. 3 7 4 1 8
Request the federal government update studies on the potential health risks of 5G radio
frequency wireless emissions and publish findings, as federal guidelines push for more
rapid deployment of 5G (Resolution)
WHEREAS, the Federal Communications Commission FCC, hereinafter referred to as
FCC, is required by the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969 to evaluate the
effects of emissions from FCC-regulated transmitters on the quality of the human
environment; and
WHEREAS, on August 1, 1996, the FCC adopted National Council on Radiation
Protection and Measurements' recommended Maximum Permissible Exposure limits for
field strength and power density for the transmitters operating at frequencies of 300 kHz
to 100 GHz; and
WHEREAS, the FCC in 2015 last updated guidelines for human exposure to radio
frequency, hereinafter referred to as RF, electromagnetic fields from wireless facilities,
based primarily on recommendations of other federal agencies after reviews of prior
scientific literature related to RF biological effects, primarily from the 1990s; and
WHEREAS, currently no federally-mandated RF exposure standards exist; and
WHEREAS, the FCC relies upon federal agencies with health and safety expertise,
such as the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the Environmental Protection Agency,
the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, and the Occupational Safety
and Health Administration which have assigned roles in federal law for monitoring and
investigating issues related to RF exposure; and
WHEREAS, the FCC has jurisdiction over non-federal wireless facilities, authorizing and
licensing all non-federal devices, transmitters and facilities that generate RF radiation;
and
WHEREAS, federal law preempts state and local governments, including the City of
Portland, from considering health concerns in the regulation and placement of wireless
facilities, so long as such facilities otherwise comply with applicable federal law; and
WHEREAS, the Government Accounting Office in 2001 prepared a report of its
investigation into safety concerns related to mobile phones, and concluded that further
research into wireless technology is needed, recommending the FDA take the lead in
monitoring research results; and
WHEREAS, in May 2009, the City Council unanimously approved a request that the
federal government undertake efforts to update studies on the potential human health
effects of RF emissions considering significant increases in the use of wireless
telephones and technology studies. Resolution No. 36706; and
WHEREAS, in September 2011, the City Council unanimously adopted a local
10
3 74 18 I
broadband strategic plan recognizing broadband networks, both wired and wireless, as
essential infrastructure fundamental to the future of Portland's community members and
businesses. Resolution No. 36879.; and
WHEREAS, in September 2017, 180 scientists and doctors from 36 countries sent an
appeal to the European Commission recommending a moratorium on the roll-out of 5G
until potential hazards for human health and the environment had been fully
investigated by scientists independent from industry; and
WHEREAS, the results of the world's largest study on the link between RF radiation
associated with 2G and 3G cell phones and cancer were released on November 1,
2018 by the National Toxicology Program, an inter-agency program: within the U.S.
Department of Health and Human Services, found evidence of cancerous heart tumors,
as well as some evidence of cancerous brain tumors, in male rats exposed to high
levels of RF radiation like that used in 2G and 3G cell phones. However, researchers
have cautioned that findings "do not apply to 4G or 5G technologies;" and
WHEREAS, on December 3, 2018, U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal and
Congresswoman Anna G. Eshoo co-authored a letter to FCC Commissioner Brendan
Carr that requested the FCC and relevant health agencies provide them studies
informing the FCC's 5G safety determination, and while they did receive a letter from
the FCC on December 17, 2018, it had no mention of 5G safety testing; and
WHEREAS, the Resolution by the City would permit the City to: (1) advocate for
updated studies on RF Exposure Limits; and (2) potentially influence the outcome of the
proceeding for the benefit of Portland community members; and
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Portland City Council requests the FCC
to work in cooperation with the FDA and other relevant federal agencies to revisit and
update studies on potential health concerns arising from RF wireless emissions
considering 5G Technology; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Portland City Council requests the FCC make
findings from such studies publicly available in a timely manner; and
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the Office of Government Relations shall cause a
copy of this Resolution to be sent to all members of the FCC, to the FDA Commissioner,
and to all members of the Oregon Congressional Delegation.
