Breaking News: Berkeley City Council supports Cell Phone ''Right to Know'' Ordinance

The Berkeley City Council adopted the referral to the City Manager on a 7-2 vote.

The City Manager will ask City Attorney Zach Cowan and Harvard Professor Lawrence Lessig to draft a cell phone ''right to know'' ordinance for the Council.

Councilman Max Anderson grilled the CTIA representative, Gerard Keegan, about why the industry does not want consumers to see the safety information that the FCC mandates. The CTIA position is that this is between the FCC and the industry, and the FCC is in the process of deciding whether this information is necessary so the City should not act on this.
