Area Board of Zoning Appeals—January 4, 2012 <br /> accessibility to fiber via the internet, reason power rates and strong support facilities. The addition is <br /> consistent to what currently exists there and that which surrounds it. If you'll turn to exhibit B, we have a <br /> site plan of the location. The dimensions of this property lends itself ideally to what we're trying to achieve <br /> here. The property is approximately 124'wide by 1760' deep. The first structure will be located behind the <br /> existing structure approximately by about 200'. Then there will be a separation of 150' between the <br /> remaining two structures. The new structures will have a 10' x 10' fence surrounding them. It will 6'high <br /> and black vinyl coated. And an existing shelter that's in the original compound will be used to house all of <br /> the equipment. Service personal will be visiting varying frequently to this site. The wooded area will be <br /> retained for use by the adjacent property owner. They have riding stables there and we allow them to use our <br /> acreage for trails for their horses. If you will please refer to exhibit G and that is our site plan as an, excuse <br /> it's an aerial with the proposed facility. And I'd like to discuss the variances that we are requesting. The <br /> first variance is from the requirements of co-location availability as required by Sec. 21.08.01. And that is <br /> because of the fact these structures are only 90' tall because of the type of equipment that is going to be <br /> placed on them and because of the separation that's required. We will however still have the 155' structure <br /> that's in the existing compound for co-location. We are secondly asking for a variance from a monopole to a <br /> lattice type self support structure and that is due to the fact that it would be impractical to mount this type of <br /> equipment on a monopole. Additional we're going to have all the structures back in the woods so we'll have <br /> a natural screening around them all. Thirdly we are asking for a variance from the required hard surface <br /> drive to a soft surface grass access because the towers will serviced infrequently and to help preserve the <br /> natural setting so that we can still allow the horses use the trails on our acreage. Fourthly we are going to ask <br /> for a variance from the required 500'to the closest residential use to 124' to the closest residential use. And <br /> that is in conjunction with our neighbor who has the horse stables. Lastly we are asking for a variance from <br /> the landscaping on all sides to no landscaping on all sides and that's due to the fact, as you can see from the <br /> drawing, that all the structures will be set back in the woods and they will have a natural screening of trees <br /> around them. <br /> MR. VELLEMAN: So you're creating something obviously, I'm not sure what, but it requires these exact <br /> dimensions for these 90'poles to be put in those spots? <br /> MRS. WALLACE: That is correct. <br /> MR. VELLEMAN: This land leads to those proper dimensions you need there? <br /> MRS. WALLACE: That's correct. <br /> MR. VELLEMAN: But since there's no really buildings going near them you only need a 10'x 10'to just to <br /> protect them? <br /> MRS. WALLACE: Correct. <br /> MR. VELLEMAN: And any wiring coming from them will be going back to the existing sheds that are <br /> there? <br /> 20 <br />
