PG&E declined to be quoted for this story. The PG&E website
has a specific section dedicated to Smart Meters, explaining
what they are.
Hart believes PG&E should respect the Board of Supervisors’
decision to ban the Smart Meters.
“PG&E continues to install Smart Meters even though the
county voted against them,” Hart said. “People do have
rights and powers to say no.”
Santa Cruz county sheriff Phil Wowak has been criticized by
some members of the community for not enforcing the county’s
decision and allowing PG&E to continue installations. Hart
believes it’s up to the community of Santa Cruz to rally
together to protest Smart Meters.
“Sheriff Wowak refuses to enforce this law and is currently
being recalled through a community effort,” Hart said.
“There’s a signature gathering happening right now.”
Lane said the sheriff’s department cannot enforce the law
because utilities in California are run by the California
Public Utilities Commission, which approved Smart Meter
installation for PG&E in 2006.
Hart said consumers should exercise their right to
understand the risks associated with the controversial
technology.
“People
need to realize they have rights and the right to question.”
