Smart Meter Protest
 
This Wed. 16th February and Speak to the new CPUC Thurs. 24th
If we want to STOP SMART METERS, we're going to have to RAISE OUR VOICES!  Please spread the word widely to your contacts.    If you can't travel to San Francisco on Wednesday, consider holding a protest at a Public Utilities Commission near where you live and contacting the media.
 
Wed. Feb 16:  PROTEST in front of CPUC offices at 505 Van Ness (at McAllister) in San Francisco.  12 Noon until about 1:30-2, or as long as you can stay.  Bring signs, bring friends, wear red or bright color.  Goal is 100+ people this time, so fill those buses, trains, ferries, and carpools!
 
Thurs. Feb 24:  SPEAK at CPUC MEETING (in the open time right after the 9:30 a.m. start).  505 Van Ness.  Two new commissioners will be seated, so this opportunity is critical!  It is especially important for commissioners to hear from electrically sensitive people and others adversely affected by SmartMeters.  Arrive before 9:30 to complete a sign-up card in the foyer.   Goal is 30+++ people.  Two minute maximum speaking time --likely reduced to one minute with 30 or more speakers.  Let's be sure they hear from all of us!
 
Capitola in Santa Cruz County is the latest local government- as of last night- to criminalize 'smart' meter installations to protect public health and safety.   See:  http://www.mercurynews.com/breaking-news/ci_17356134  That makes twenty-six CA local governments who have demanded a moratorium and seven who have criminalized smart meter installations.  Has your local government passed an ordinance yet?
