Staff believes that this addition will not constitute a substantial change from the plans or Standards as shown in the file for USR-776 (A site specific development plan and a Special Review Permit for a self-supporting radio communication tower). It is our understanding that the addition of the three whip antennas wi': not change the height of the tower nor will it cause any structural changes. The Department of Planning Staff approves your request to make the additions conditional to following the specifications outlined in your letter and the plans that were submitted to our department on October 27, 1998. However. any additional changes or upgrades to the towers in the future will not necessarily be approved by the Department of Planning Services. If changes, upgrades or additional antennas are proposed in the future then a letter from your office or from PageNet outlining the request will be reviewed by Planning Staff and considered at that time upon the merits of the proposal If I can be of any further assistance please to not hesitate to call me.

It is our understanding that the Pagenet installation includes (3) "Omni" antennas, 15 feet in length and mounted on the tower at an elevation of 200 feet above the ground. In our professional opinion the existing tower structure is fully capable of carrying the additional loads induced by the Pagenet antenna installation. The addition of the proposed antennas on the existing tower profile has a negligible overall effect on the tower structure assembly.

The address is located within the NW 1/4 of Section 33,T2N, R67W. Our client, PageNet;is expanding its services to include Alpha and Numeric Paging. The equipment needed for this service will include 1 whip antenna for transmission and 2 for receive, all to be located below the top of the existing tower. The equipment to operate this site will be housed within 1 cabinet located within the building at the base of the tower. Presently a lease has been signed between Paging Network of Colorado, Inc. (PageNet) and Tsunami Communications,Inc. I would appreciate hearing from you as to what procedures,if any,I need to follow in order to add this equipment to the tower.

A copy of this certification shall be submitted to the Department of Planning Services. Please see EXHIBIT B. 3)The applicant shall submit evidence to the Department of Planning Services that adequate space exists on the tower and in the equipment building to mitigate any loss of transmission capability in the existing public safety radio network. Please see EXHIBIT C. 4)All future frequencies transmitting from the tower shall require an intermodulation and signal saturation study to be approved by the Weld County Information Service Agency.

Colorado. We have worked on tower antennas.reinforced the structure, and completed maintenance over the past four years. The tower bolts and guy anchor • attachments have been checked and the tower was plumbed and tensioned by our firm the summer of 1996. This structure was a well fabricated and installed structure and is in excellent condition in relation to maintenance end repair. . You have upgraded a formal listing of all existing antennas and a lietiog of some proposed additional antennas of Western Wireless and two paging companies. You had directed us to analyze the tower to determine if the proposed antennas could be located from the 100'to 370' elevation on this structure. Our specific guidelines were to make appropriate recommendations to maintain a structure capable of meeting the ANSLTIA\EIA 222-F Standard for a 70 mph basic wind speed rating. This rating is the rating the structure was improved to from its condition at the time of your initial purchase. • In order to maintain a 70 mph basic wind speed rating with additional antennas, improvements in feed line distributions on the towel were found necessary. By bundling and relocating feed lines to be directly in front of tower angle legs;reductions in overall wind loading could be achieved. Details concerning our analysis end recommended feed arrangements are contained in my 3-27-98 Tower Analysis Report. The end result is that with improvements in feed line arrangements the tower can maintain a 70 mph basic wind speed rating with the proposed additional antennas. Sincerely, Ernest R: Ion P.H.
