Mark F. Hutchins • Consulting Radiofrequency Engineer |
|
"...A Nationally-Recognized Expert In The Field" |
|
Controversy often results when advanced communication development clashes with visual, environmental, safety and other concerns. Mark F. Hutchins’ radiofrequency engineering skills and knowledge of regulatory intricacies combine with his ability to explain and educate members of your board or commission who may not have a technical background. Particularly in the case of Personal Wireless Services facilities, understanding the Telecommunications Act of 1996, rapid changes in technology and the impact of continuing judicial review will help you avoid an application decision that fails to comply with the Act. Mark provides effective application technical reviews. He doesn’t work for any providers and he doesn’t work for neighbors or other opponents - he is one of the few truly independent RF engineering experts working for municipalities. He has also been employed by state, regional and local planning authorities to provide guidance and training to address land-use concerns in view of federal preemption of some jurisdictional areas.
