1/16/2024 17:00 Planning Commission Appeal: Conditional Use Permit to Install
a New 45-Foot Freestanding Wireless Telecommunication
Facility on a 2.09-acre Parcel Improved with an Existing Church
PAUL HENKIN It is wrong to put this tower in a residential area when there
are other options. AT&T claims a gap in service. None exists.
Health effects can and have been devastating to some people
and open up the City to liability. The American Academy of
Pediatrics recommends that electromagnetic/RF transmissions
be limited in the proximity of
children, and there are not only children but also a preschool
in our neighborhood, less than 350 feet from the proposed
towers locaƟon.
A 45 foot freestanding wireless telecommunications facility at
430 Second Avenue is also inconsistent with the character of a
quiet residential neighborhood. The tower can and should be
placed elsewhere, in a business area.
Do not give in to corporate demands when alternatives exist to
impacting the health and welfare of the people you serve.
Please do what is right for the people of this City, their health
and welfare.

joanne fischer I oppose the tower being placed at 430 second Ave. I am
trustee on the property next door to the placement. I was not
able to attend the previous meeting. the original notification
shows an arrow on the map that is not the actual location of
the tower so the notice was misleading. i oppose the tower
being placed in a residential neighborhood. The facts relied
upon by big corporations are outdated 1992 and 1998 on
safety of the cell towers. This will lower my property value by
about 20% and deter renters being in close proximity to tower
due to safety concerns.There are numerous cases across the
country of health issues arising from close proximity to cell
towers. Some people have electro hypersensitivity also called
microwave or radiation sickness.The bedrooms in the near
house are on a hill and on direct line with said cell tower
placement. Cell towers do not turn off at night. Are we going
to wait til health issues develope ? this is a residential
neighborhood not industrial. There is no lapse in coverage for
this area. the cell tower is not needed. There are concerns
that the cell tower leads to other electronic radio cell devices
being placed. one such concern is privacy. I ask you consider
the obtrusiveness the future dangers and perhaps regulations
regarding this cell tower and deny the approval of placement
of the tower at 430 second Ave.
