Center for Safer Wireless Recognizes Get the Cell Out - Atlanta's Victory

The results of the DeKalb County election are in for July 2012 and the "nonbinding referendum" question is garnering recognition from one of the leading organizations in the nation that advocates for smarter use of wireless technology - The Center for Safer Wireless.

The Center for Safer Wireless is most well-known for hosting and organizing the "Wireless Safety Summit" in Washington, D.C. in October 2011. 

Here's what they said about us:
*********************************************************************************
Victory for Get the Cell Out in Atlanta

• On Tuesday, July 21, exactly 71,690 voters in Dekalb County, Georgia voted against cell towers on school grounds. The Get the Cell Out - Atlanta Chapter worked hard to raise awareness of the many problems associated with cell towers on school property. More than 60% of voters voted no to the question "Should the local or independent school system of DeKalb County or a charter school in DeKalb County place or operate a telecommunications tower on any elementary, middle or high school property?"
• Consider working to get a similar question on voter ballots in your area.
