get away from city life, and everything that goes with it, especially cellphone towers. I also have
<br />three grandkids here that visit me quite often, as well as the multitude of kids that are at the, the
<br />playground that's not on the map also, but it's, it's, it's directly right across the street from my,
<br />my house where kids are playing all the time. In fact, there are cars that are lined up in front of
<br />my house on 17'h because the gates for HPP rec center are closed, but they park on my street in
<br />order to play in the playground. So, the kids are in the playground 24/7. So that's one thing that
<br />I, I'd like to find out if HPP had any thoughts about what is going to happen to all the kids that
<br />are playing in that playground at all, at all times.
<br />Another twist that we have is, is the property values, okay. I spoke with the fellow who
<br />appraised my house when it was just built a year ago, and he said that the, there would definitely
<br />be a downturn in the amount of value that my house could garner, you know, if I went to sell it. I
<br />went into the internet and found a couple of, couple of items, one of them happened to be a
<br />survey that was done by the national institute for science, law, and the public policy survey and
<br />they had a thousand respondents to this survey that was done in June of 2014. And it came up
<br />and said that ninety-four percent of, ninety-four percent said a nearby cell tower or group of
<br />antennas would negatively impact interest in a property where the price that they would be
<br />willing to pay for it. Seventy-nine percent said under no circumstances would they ever
<br />purchase or rent a property within a few blocks of a cell tower or antennas. Eighty-nine percent
<br />said they were generally concerned about the increasing number of cell towers and antennas in
<br />the residential neighborhood, and fifty-seven percent said they experienced cognitive effects
<br />from radiation emitted by cell towers, etcetera, routers and portable phones, you know, that
<br />affected them. And that homeowners would pay from ten to nineteen percent to over twenty
<br />percent less for a property if within close proximity to a cell, cellphone based station. Now a
<br />question that I have for AT&T is when will they send me the check for when I have to, if I sell
<br />my house for less than I need to get for it? I mean, it's, it's a demonstrated fact that property
<br />values go down. It's a demonstrated fact that, you know, there is a health, health, you know
<br />health risk which I, you know, I know that I don't have any information on that per se, but also
<br />the fact that, you know, my front door is probably maybe 175 feet from the tower. Okay? We
<br />also have the Spectrum shed there that you saw on the map, which is in total disrepair. It looks,
<br />you know, like a very much of an eyesore.
<br />RAFFIPIY: Can you speak directly into the mic please?
<br />REINKE: Oh, okay, I'm sorry. The Spectrum shed that they have there that you see that pole
<br />going into in the wires, it's in very much disrepair, and I fear that the same thing would happen
<br />with an AT&T, you know, building that, you know, they don't really need to keep it up, you
<br />know, upright. All they have to do would make sure that the wires stay dry. And, you know,
<br />I'm against the cell tower for those particular reasons. Thank you.
<br />RAFFIPIY: Thank you very much. Any questions?
<br />AU: Mr. Chair I have a question for Ms. Schiszler.
<br />RAFFIPIY: Go ahead.
