>> Hello All,
>> Last Thursday evening, at our monthly Board meeting, I announced that
>> there was an on going issue, with Verizon and their phone boxes.
>> Today, there was a hearing with the Los Angeles Public Works department.
>> The Board of Public works, has placed a proposal on the table, that will
>> be heard by the full Board and voted on Friday morning, September 25.
>> The proposal is this:
>> Verizon will start November 1st, in taking the Bios Boxes that they have
>> placed on telephone poles at a height  of three feet or so, and move them
>> to a height of no less then eight feet.
>> Any box that cannot be moved to this new height, will have a barrier
>> placed from its bottom edge to the ground.
>> This will start in November of 2009 and has an ending date of December
>> 2010.
>> We will meet in January, June and December to make sure that Verizon is
>> continuing the work that they agree to, and that things are moving along.
>> If members live in the Los Angeles area, would like to attend Friday
>> mornings meeting, they can, but should understand that it is mostly to
>> have a final vote on this proposal.
>> The address is 200 n Spring Street on the third floor.
>> Also, I would like to let you know, that I was interviewed by CBS News,
>> and the story aired at 3 pm and will air again at 6 pm.
>> You can find the story on video at www.cbs2.com and I was interviewed over
>> the phone by ABC and that will air along with others that they interviewed
>> at 6 pm as well.
>> Yesterday, Racquel Decipeda the Secretary of the San Fernando Valley
>> Chapter, was interviewed and had her picture taken in front of a box in
>> Granada Hills, which you can find in the Daily News today.
>> This has had an overwhelming amount of media on the subject today and the
>> last couple of days, which I would just like to say, thank you to those
>> who have helped make this outcome possible.
>> Again, the next meeting is Friday morning at 9:30 am, which I will give
>> you another update after that meeting.
>> Thank you,


>> Robert Stigile
