SUMMARY:Preemption Webinar - Free Live For IMLA Members
DESCRIPTION:Structural Racism\, Local Authority\, and the Harmful Impacts of State Preemption in the South\nCLE available to Kitchen Sink Subscribers and in some cases to others but fees may apply. \nState interference in local democracy is embedded in a long history of events and actions that have sought to promote the interests of historically privileged property owners and perpetuate the South’s racist past. Across the region\, the configuration of government\, policies\, and practices are rooted in earlier efforts to limit the rights and freedoms of Black people and entrench white supremacy during the dismantling of Reconstruction-era economic and political gains and the concurrent rise of Jim Crow–era state-sanctioned discrimination. Preemption as it is used today works to reinforce these inequalities when it is used to block local policies that promote racial and economic equity. \nIn fact\, a new report documents the use of preemption laws in the South by overwhelmingly white male legislatures to keep Black-majority cities from passing the progressive policies their people need. For example\, the Alabama legislature preempted Birmingham’s minimum wage increase; the Tennessee legislature preempted Nashville’s local hire law; and the Georgia legislature preempted Atlanta’s fair scheduling law. \nThis webinar will discuss the legal history of local government after the Civil War\, the extent to which racial animus shaped and continues to shape local institutions and how state legislatures and the misuse of preemption continues to perpetuate inequities in the South. While the session discussion and research focus on the South\, the impacts and lessons learned can be applied anywhere preemption and state-local conflicts block policies that promote racial and economic equity. \nSpeaker: Dan Farbman\, Jaimie K.

SUMMARY:Telecommunications Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Cell Tower Leasing and Sales\nThis program provides municipalities (and all property owners) with the basics – – A to Z – –  of cell tower leases on city property\, such as a park\, police station or city hall.  It covers the impact of 5G service\, which will require tens of thousands more cell sites\, including describing 5G\, why it will be rolled out slowly and why it may have little impact on lease rates or sales prices.  It is presented by two attorneys with decades of experience representing municipalities on cell leases.  The program starts by covering key business issues in cell site leases\, including lease rates\, who gets the revenues from additional antennas or carriers being co-located at a site\, and the major rent increases possible at renewals.  It then shifts to avoiding lease terms which can prevent a landlord’s use or development of the property with the lease\, and adding lease terms which help preserve these rights. After covering some more conventional lease terms the program addresses the sale of cell leases and future leasing rights.  This includes typical sale prices (often 15 to 20 times annual revenues); when to sell and when it is not advisable to sell; how to get the best price and terms in a sale; and again avoiding provisions that restrict the development of the property. On both cell leases and the sale of leases the program addresses key items that are unique to municipalities. More generally\, the program covers such topics as lease term and terminations\, access requirements\, radio frequency interference\, design and camouflage\, and radio frequency emissions safety. \nSpeaker: John Pestle & Jonathan Kramer

SUMMARY:Preemption Webinar - Free Live For IMLA Members
DESCRIPTION:The Post-Election Preemption Landscape \nCLE available to Kitchen Sink Subscribers and in some cases to others but fees may apply. \nThe results from the November 2020 elections will have consequences for state-local government relationships across the nation. The balance of power and ability for the federal\, state\, and local governments to work together is critical to respond to the demands of the pandemic\, strengthen the systems upholding our democracy\, and address the calls for justice for Black\, Indigenous\, and People of Color.  Local governments will continue to be on the front lines of myriad critical issues and will continue to be impacted by past and potential state interference that has – and intends to – thwart the ability of local governments to effectively meet the needs of their communities. \nThis webinar will map the changes in terrain caused by the 2020 elections\, including local public health protections\, workplace safety\, local fiscal authority\, redistricting\, and criminal justice and police reform with the goal of sharing and exploring trends and informing local solutions to meet our country’s ongoing challenges. \nSpeaker: Kim Haddow & Rick Su

SUMMARY:Telecommunications Webinar
DESCRIPTION:Update on FCC Rules on Cell Tower Zoning\nMajor topics will be (1) – – The September 2020 Ninth Circuit decision upholding major portions of the FCC’s 2018 Order about 5G and small cell towers in the rights of way\, but restoring municipalities’ traditional discretion on aesthetic matters\, and (2) – – Two FCC Orders that expand the types of changes to cell towers (notably expansions up to 30 feet outside the current cell site) which municipalities must approve.  In each case we will summarize the decision\, its background and provide suggestions as to how municipalities should proceed. \nSpeaker: John Pestle & Jonathan Kramer

SUMMARY:Litigation Webinar
DESCRIPTION:What Every Municipal Lawyer Should Know About Recovering Damages for Legacy Environmental Contamination of Municipal Resources\nMunicipalities have long shouldered the burden of managing PCBs\, PFAS\, MBTE\, TCP\, Chromium and other contaminants in their drinking water\, wastewater and stormwater systems\, often spending millions of dollars per year.  This webinar provides an affirmative litigation  framework for local governments to recover damages from the manufacturers\, distributors and dischargers of the contaminants\, shifting the financial burden away from taxpayers and ratepayers and onto the companies that profited from the sale and uncontrolled use of hazardous chemical products.  The webinar will provide a brief historical overview of the development of the law of environmental recoveries: CERCLA\, the Clean Water Act (and state equivalents)\, as well as state law claims under products liability\, consumer protection\, public nuisance\, and trespass. It will provide an update on the proposed $550 million national class PCB settlement with Monsanto\, and an overview of municipalities’ additional options to recover from dischargers the costs of PCB management\, reduction\, and remediation.   The webinar will give an overview of the tightening regulations for PFAS in municipal water systems\, and litigation options for shifting the future huge costs of PFAS remediation.  Municipal law departments can bring in significant revenues through affirmative environmental litigation. \nSpeaker: Kyle McGee\, Suzanne Sangree\, Viola Vetter\, & Jason Wilson
