Additional Supporting Statements
1. The proposed use and development is consistent with the General Plan and any applicable
specific plans.
A robust wireless network will contribute to the county's ability to respond to natural or
man-made disasters and other public safety concerns in a potentially life-saving
manner.
2. The site is adequate in size, shape, topography, location, utilities and other factors to
accommodate the use and development.
The site is of adequate size, shape, topography, location and access to utilities to
accommodate the proposed wireless facility. The site is generally flat and has
access to power and telephone connections that can be used for the project. The site
is disguised as a tree in an effort to blend the tower with its preexisting surroundings.
3. Adequate street access and traffic capacity are or will be available to serve the proposed
development as well as existing and anticipated development in the surrounding area.
The facility is unmanned and will not contribute to any traffic.
4. Adequate utilities and public services are or will be available to serve the proposed
development as well as existing and anticipated development in the surrounding area.
The facility only requires power and telephone connections which are present in this area
of the city.
5. The use and development will be compatible with the intended character of the area.
The facility is designed to blend as much as possible with the surrounding environment
that already exists within the vicinity.

Safe – RF is Radio
The FCC regulates RF emissions to ensure public safety. Standards have been set based on peer-
reviewed scientific studies and recommendations from a variety of oversight organizations,
including the National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP), American
National Standards Institute (ANSI), Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE),
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), Federal Drug Administration (FDA), Occupational
Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), and National Institute for Occupational Safety and
Health (NIOSH).
Although the purview of the public safety of RF emissions by the FCC was established by the
Telecommunications Act of 1996, these standards remain under constant scrutiny. The typical
urban cell site operates hundreds or even thousands of times below the FCC’s limits for safe
exposure. All Vertical Bridge cell towers will operate well below these standards as well.
Thank you for your time and assistance throughout the application intake and review
process. Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any questions associated with
this project.
