Since the last hearing, you should have in your packets a letter from the Fire Department dated February 21 ". We also received a letter from the Police Department and a letter from the Applicant dated February 28h. And, I also just want to let the Commissioners know because this came up at the last meeting that when we first got this application, the Planning Department sent it out to the HPP Homeowner's Association for comment, and we did not receive any comment back. ROMERO (from audience): That's because the board doesn't exist. JACKSON: And that concludes my presentation. If you have any questions, I'd be happy to answer. RAFFIPIY: Any questions from the Commission? No question? Applicant, could you please come forth? You're already sworn in so, please proceed with your presentation. [Mr. Tomlinson had already been sworn in for the previous application.] TOMLINSON: Good afternoon, Chair. Good afternoon, Commission. I hope everybody had a good lunch, a good lunch break. Thank you for hearing our continued Use Permit application. I wanted to address some concerns, community concerns, and questions from the Commission that arose out of last, last month's hearing first of which was consideration, there was a question about whether the Hawaiian Paradise Park Owners' Association had conducted meetings and minutes regarding the proposed tower. So, I had a conversation with their manager, and he pointed me to their website, and I was able to pull down, just as an example, they had various meetings to discuss the AT&T proposed tower back in 2018, and then they had some decision- making in January 2019, and I submitted for your review the agenda as well as the approved meeting minutes. So, they were having discussions, but I understand some people didn't attend the meetings or, you know, but there were meetings to discuss it with the community. Secondly, there was some questions about tower structure. Again, our proposed monopine is a hundred feet from the property line, and theI think the closest house we determined was about 230 feet. I've also included that with a drawing dimensioning that out. I also submitted a structural, kind of a structural letter, signed and stamped from a structural engineer basically describing how the towers are designed and what specifications they are designed to, because there were some questions about tower failure and stuff, so that letter is included for your review also. There were questions about noise, potential noise from the generator and the ground space. The generator and HVAC unit is all contained within a building, within our shelter at about seven meters away. It's about 60 decibels, and as you move away from that, it gets down into the fifties or even lower, depending on how far away you are, so it's actually quite quiet, and again, I'd like to reiterate that this is only an emergency generator. This does not run all day, every day at all. It's only during emergencies and then there is ait runs a self -test for a short amount of time, usually they time it in the middle of the day, the operations guys, so people aren't home at night or something like that, just in case. So, they try to go the extra mile to make sure it's not a EXHIBIT C 2
