Re: Use Permit

Oear Mr. Kirche,--
This is In response to Mr. Painters letter dated May 25, 1993,
1, Regarding Item H, under Enviro
nmental Impacts.
,,,rrently our studios and a 2961 tower are located at the site. Wehavebeenloc
e since ated
1966 and the existing tower has been there at least 10 Years previous, Vye
have had no earthquake activity In that time, The additional 1301 tower creates no
greater danger to property or its inhabitants, it is true that the proposed 1301 tower is
approx. 125from an existing building several factors need to be understood.
The,130'tower 18 Made out of light w6i ht material. It is of the type commonly used in
9
�j farms �and residential districts for TV antennas and Ham radio, The Rohn 25G tower is
th� smallest tower: Made in America. Commonly
this tower/mast IS supported by light
fl�; weight gUy wires hooked to trees or anchor points in the ground. However',
is. being Installed by a Ca because it
lifornfa Certified tower company, they are required by state
law that installation and hardwar
e meet all st8te earthquake roquire-ments. Therefore
the guy wires are of a heaviergatige than normal rand a higher, safety
acc cUshion is
ounted for in its bracing, It Must also be noted that nothing i's pjanned to be hung 1
on. the towero The, tov
ver4solf is an electrical radio kequehc dipoleto befended off
from the public. Y
In further'disdu8sion to Rohn ( the manufacturer) , it is almost impossible that the tower'
=ld fall in one piece. According to Rohn, lt,is' designed to fold on itself, Even if the
worse case scenario were, taken, all (3) guy wi
re� would have to 'break before the
tower would fall "like a stick" not (2). Even, at that,, due to,Wlhd and the motio, of the
earth,,. the chances it n
would fall towards the stud! building !$.highly unlikely.
VO 0
If ur concerns re; still not answered, a'simple ans
5'away from the tower. Wer might be to Move our: studio
