President Alice Gallagher recently sent letters to the leaders of various municipal groups, encouraging them to support Senate Bill 41, sponsored by Senator Glowiak-Hilton, and its sister House Bill, sponsored by Representative Mazzochi. This legislation amends the Small Wireless Facilities Deployment Act, and returns some control over the siting and regulation of small cell wireless facilities to local municipalities.
The letter, which encouraged the recipients and their memberships to contact their state legislators in support of the pending legislation, was sent to:
Rich Pellegrino

West Central Municipal Conference
Mark L. Fowler

Mandi Florip
Executive Director
Lake County Municipal League
David Bennett
