PG&E Forces Smart Meters On Scotts Valley
Scotts Valley and Santa Cruz County Demand Halt to Further Smart Meter Installations
Josh Hart with Scotts Valley Neighbors Against Smart Meters reports that PG&E continues to install their inaccurate, carcinogenic, and overpriced smart meters onto peoples' homes in Scotts Valley, despite the City and County demanding a halt to any further meter installation. Neighbors are denying access to PG&E contractors, Wellington Energy, and demanding that the CPUC put a halt to this ill-conceived program.
After hearing evidence about the link between cell phone radiation from smart meters and brain tumors, as well as billing overcharges, the cities of Capitola and Scotts Valley voted to demand a moratorium at the state level.
Protests continue throughout Santa Cruz County.
