Subject: CHRS urges temporary halt to 5G cabinetry installations until PSC issues required guidance

The Capitol Hill Restoration Society urges the Public Space Committee (PSC) to temporarily suspend issuing permits for 5G installations with cabinetry (i.e., metal boxes) until after the PSC follows its rules and issues guidance for these types of installations, so that these installations will be functional, uniform, and as attractive as possible.  

Thank you for considering our comments. 

Beth Purcell, President
