Help Support Action to Clean Up Verizon Overhead Cables in Long Beach

Hello Community Leader,

 

 The RPNA has been concerned about the visual blight caused by Verizon in the stringing of overhead cables and equipment throughout our neighborhood and much of the city.

  

Our councilmember Suja Lowenthal provided the California Public Utilities Commission with pictures, locations and information based on RPNA's letter. Suja Lowenthal has requested a site visit and review from a CPUC staff engineer. 

 

In addition, Vice Mayor Suja Lowenthal will be submitting a motion for Council consideration on Tuesday, June 19, asking the City Attorney to identify any remedies at the city's disposal including, but not limited to land use, regulation, blight and historic district status. 

  

Please see the attached agenda item from Vice Mayor Lowenthal on utility cables coming before City Council on June 19.  We are encouraging residents to testify in support of the item  or send their comments electronically to City Council via the City's eComment.  The meeting starts at 5:00 pm on Tuesday, June 19.  The Utility Cables motion is tentatively #18 on the agenda.

eComment is open for this council meeting on Friday June 15 at 4:30 pm until one hour before the meeting begins June 19 (4pm)
