News - Jason Machinski, who will be neighbour to a cell tower if a communications giant gets its way, said he doesn’t want to mortgage children’s health for better cell phone reception. Telus has asked Industry Canada for permission to build an antenna at 1071 Dozois Road in South Pointe Manotick. But the site is off of Mitch Owens Road and adjacent
to St. Mark High School and the Manotick Montessori School. Machinski said he received a letter from Standard Land Company, which is a consultant company for Telus, but many residents wouldn’t have been informed about the potential development. “The company only has to tell people that are 120 metres from the site,� Machinski said. “Because it’s the country that means there are only two people that close to the site. But I thought people should know about
it because it’s going to affect them.� The letter Machinski received from Telus on April 11 said the tower will increase network capacity and improve wireless voice and data services for customers residing or working in Manotick. Currently there are no existing antenna system structures or buildings of sufficient height on which to locate Telus equipment,� the letter reads. See COUNCILLOR, page 31
