Manhattan community boards, Borough President Levine call on city to slow 5G rollout
The city’s effort to roll out its new 5G antenna tower program across the five boroughs has generated backlash in Manhattan, where residents have raised wide-ranging concerns against the technological upgrades.
The issue played out Thursday night in Lower Manhattan’s Community Board 2, which voted for a moratorium of new 5G towers in the community district. Manhattan Borough President Mark Levine, who appeared at the meeting, said he shared many of the board’s concerns over the towers and wrote a critical letter to the city’s Office of Technology and Innovation (OTI) earlier this week.
