In addition to the application each package includes: 1) Authorization from the property owner 2) Assessors Map identifying the property. On this map I've also numbered all the properties within 200'. The numbers correspond to the numbers on the spreadsheet listing these property owners. 3) Property owners within 200' 4) Vicinity Map 5) Deed with legal description 6) Project narrative 7) Criteria 8) View Plane analysis 9) Full drawing set 10) Elevation drawing stamped by a surveyor which shows the original grade from which the building height is determined. 11) A map which identifies the 12 other properties Verizon Wireless considered in their search for a new site. This map also identifies the FCC registered antenna structures within a 5 mile radius. Included with this map is a key with information on each of the 12 properties and FCC structures. 12) Property Value Analysis. This study performed by a licensed real estate appraiser concluded that properties with a view of a communications tower did not lose value when compared to properties which weren't close to a communications tower. Worth noting, this study was performed for a relatively tall free standing tower. What we are proposing will be considerably less visible. The majority of this information was included in the previous submittal. The only new items are 2 and 11. 1 had included an Assessors map previously, but not one that identified the properties within 200'. Please email or call with questions, if you require any additional information. David A.

COUNTY Or GARFIELD STATI Or COLOIADO GT P244663 Verizon Wireless Project Narrative Purpose Verizon Wireless would like to build a new wireless facility at the Glenwood Commercial property located at 2550 Highway 82. This new site wi9l fill in a coverage gap in the network for Verizon Wireless customers in the southern portion of Glenwood Springs including those traveling along Highway 82. Description This facility will be located in the fourth building in the Glenwood Commercial project, furthest up the hill to the north, furthest from the highway. The facility will have 3 primary components, the antennas, the equipment to support the antennas, and a backup generator to keep the site on the air in the event of a power failure. There will be two sets of four panel antennas. Each antenna will measure around 1' wide by 4' tall. One set of four will be mounted on the roof of the building at the east end. The other will be mounted to the vertical gable surface at the west end of the building. Some of these antennas will not be visible from the highway. Others will be just barely visible. The equipment to support these antennas will be located inside on the bottom floor of this building. In addition to the electronics to support the antennas, backup batteries will be installed in the event of a power failure. Finally, a backup diesel generator will be located outside the building, adjacent to the equipment room. This generator will run one a week for 30 minutes as a maintenance measure. Otherwise it will only run in the event of a power failure. Once construction is complete, the site will only be visited once or twice a month by a technician in a small truck for routine maintenance. No water or sewer services will be required. Phone and electrical services will be required, and will come from existing services at the Glenwood Commercial property.

Dear Mr. McNally: At your request, our firm has analyzed the probable effect of a communications tower on residential property values in the vicinity of 1 1630 Old Pueblo Road, Fountain, Colorado. aeraground It is assumed that the proposed tower vvill be a steel monopole around 100 feet in height. The tower is to be erected on the western portion of the property located at 11630 Old Pueblo Road. The area where the subject is located is just outside the Fountain city limits in a rural residential setting mixed with nearby industrial properties. Most homes in the immediate area are older horses of average quality and condition. Within a mile of the subject property to the northeast, is a housing development with newer horses of above average quality. The industrial properties are located just to the north and rtarthvvest of the subject site. Most of the properties to the west and south are larger acreage agricultural or rural residential horse properties. Since the vievv amenity is an important issue to this analysis, it is germaine to discuss the surrounding area views. The area has a rnix of open meadow and trees. Utility poles are above ground. There is a large industrial chimney on the ridge perhaps a !mile to the southwest that is readily visible from this area. The proposed 1 (1rf1T.t> fl ;J ' rlFSlr?FN l 1Al. nyr+_l,t i s -/‘ f comr»uriications tower will be located near Fountain Creek which has a significant stand of trees ail along its banks. The industrial buildings to the north are readily visible from most of the area properties. The property on which the tower is located is over 1 ,400 feet deep. If the tower were located 1,000 feet from Old Pueblo Road and was 100 feet tall, the tip of the tower would be a little under 6 degrees high on the horizon. For a person standing on Jordan Road, over 2,000 feet from the tower, the tip of the tower would be below 3 degrees. The property data for the interested nearby property owners is included in the Addendum to this letter_ The El Paso County Building Department has indicated that no recent building permits have been pulled for any of these properties. An_at in order to determine the effect of a monopole tower on residential property values, sales in an area where a tower is visible were analyzed. There are two monopole towers plus one structural tower located at 4625 Stanton Street in Colorado Springs. These towers are located on a ridge in Austin Bluffs Park above the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs campus in the north central portion of the city. The nearby residential area is called Cragmor. Due to the topography of the area, the towers are readily visible to only a few properties located on the north side of Cragmor, near Austin Bluffs Parkway. Close to a hundred sales were reviewed from 1995 to the current date. Four sales were found in the area where the towers are readily visible. Eight other sales from Cragmor were found which did not have a significant tower view. All sales are listed in the Addendum to this letter. Safes #1 through #4 were in the area where the towers were visible. Sales #5 through #12 were in unimpacted locations. Analysis of these sales showed that the towers had no discernable influence on the value of the properties in the study. Two sales, Sales #3 and #4, both in view of the towers, were sold in the upper range of all home sales in the area. The analysis included comparing properties with tower views to sales of comparable properties without tower views and compensating for other differences in the properties. Sales #1 and #2 were compared to Sales #5, #6, #8, and #9. Sale #3 was compared to Sales #7, #1 0, and #11. Sale #4, which had tower views, had no comparable sales in the area. With several of the comparisons it could be concluded that a premium was paid for properties with tower views, however, there was not sufficient evidence to suggest that the tower views contributed significantly to the PRITZ & COMPANY ions 2 tn 0 0 c. a, L • cfr0 (II [in -- ca m In (fl arJ u) CO t— C 01 ct^n Cn Cn Co 6i 4) CA 0 a] Q) 01 al G?

This is consistent with my experience with other structures which may intrude on residential views such as water towers or tanks or high tension electric lines. In these cases property values are only affected when the property has a significant 111 portion of its view blocked by a structure; in other words, a property located right il I next to a massive water tank is negatively influenced by the view blockage. However, the negative influence quickly disappears within a few blocks from the structure as the visual impact lessens. A single monopole tower has a low visual profile and even at 1,000 feet away is quite low on the horizon where views of the tit tower could easily be blocked by area vegetation. Additionally, the visual impact of a single telecommunications tower in this area would be further diminished by the mix of other structures and telephone poles already present.
