Home My WebLink About1.0 ApplicationGlenn Hartmann From: Glenn Hartmann Sent: Tuesday, October 06, 2015 3:36 PM To: 'DCLOSSER@aol.com' Cc: Tamra Allen Subject: RE: Verizon Wireless Modifications on Iron Mtn Hi Dave: Thanks for all the details on your proposed antennae replacement on the POW Inc. property located on Iron Mountain (Parcel No. 2185-033-00-034). I reviewed the materials you provided with Tamra Allen our Planning Manager and based on the following understandings and pursuant to this email you can proceed with your antennae replacement. There is no increase in the overall height of the installations. There is no increase in the number of antennae proposed on the tower. The proposal is consistent with the existing approvals reflected by Resolution No. 2007-66, and will need to comply with all conditions contained therein including Condition #4 that requires that ".... all future modifications shall be painted a darker matte earth tone to reduce visual impacts;" Continued compliance with all Federal Regulations (FAA and FCC) will need to be maintained. This email and your supporting documents will be added to the County's files for this Telecommunication Facility. No further documentation is required by the County for you to proceed with the replacement. Please contact me if you have any additional questions. Sincerely, Glenn Hartmann, Senior Planner Garfield County Community Development 970-945-1377 x1570 ghartmann@garfield-county.com From: DCLOSSER@aol.com [mailto:DCLOSSER@aol.com] Sent: Thursday, October 01, 2015 2:36 PM To: Glenn Hartmann <ghartmann@garfield-county.com> Subject: Verizon Wireless Modifications on Iron Mtn Glen, We spoke a few weeks ago about Verizon Wireless' desire to upgrade their facility at this location. At present Verizon Wireless has their equipment located inside a shelter. Their existing wood pole with two whip antennas is located just up the hill approximately 140' to the North. The pole is 15' tall. The antennas currently extend to a height of 25'. The plan is to remove the two whips and replace them with panel antennas. The new panels would be mounted with the top at 16', just a foot above the top of the pole. The objective is primarily to provide enhanced data coverage to Verizon Wireless customers.

To access the knob, remove the cap by turning it counter clockwise. It is re -installed by opposite rotation. Do not remove die transparent cap(s) from the antenna Remote Electrical Tilt (RET} Control RET Actuator Important Installation Instructions The remote control of the electrical tilt is managed by either a Multi -Device Control Unit (MDCU) or a Multi Device Dual Unit (MDDU) inserted in the bottom of the antenna. A single actuator individually controls the tilt of each band (no need for daisy chain cables between the bands). This module does not add any additional length to the antenna For RET control, the transparent caps must be in place and locked. The tilt angle indicators always remain visible and the antenna still has manual tilt control (manual override). Select one of the following RET actuators when ordering this antenna Multi -Device Control Unit (MCDU) Multi -Device Dual Unit (MDDU) The MDCU is an electronic module that al ows the remote control of the o ectrical downtilt (RET) in Amphenol antennas with factory embedded motors The MDCU is factory installed. Refer to ordering opt ons The MDDU allows two separate RET Controllers to independently drive the RETs in Amphenol antennas with factory installed motors (for antenna sharing) The MDDU is factory installed.
