149. 5G Planning Permissions.

We the undersigned petition the Council to stopping any proposals, plans or attempts to introduce 5G technology to the geographical area covered by the City of York Council.  We believe there is a serious & incalculable risk to the health of present & future generations.  We also believe that any support, financial or otherwise, by CYC is a wholly inappropriate & unjustifiable use of resources.
