tower to continue in the direction the Planning Commission had you know initially voted on it you know being denied. I do see that it will adversely impact the community's character and surrounding properties. I hear some background noise is that just me. If everybody else could mute, thank you. First of all, I went through the whole background report and I did not see proof of gaps of coverage by providing you know I didn't see those records. Records of drop calls and I do believe that it would be prudent for the Planning Commission to demand the hard data here because you know this is Cingular Wireless we are talking about and they can produce these records. So, I liked to see evidence of lack of coverage provided with this permit application and I would also like to see that there's a third parry inspection of the emissions done every quarter would be my recommendation with this tower. Because unfortunately the telecommunications as well as the FCC are undergoing numerous you know litigations right now. One of them which has been supported by you know the Hawaii County Council to support the FCC's investigation into their limits they're allowing and unfortunately they have also been you know basically called out to be a captured agency and that's very well documented by the Harvard Ethics Committee et cetera. So, that's number two. I would also like to see that these you know that there is a proof of insurance policy and that it not exclude personal injury or damage liability from any kind of exposures. I think that this would be a very important clause just as well as another point is that I did not see in this background report that there was a cultural resource, like an archaeologist survey beforehand. I think that you know prior to approval that would be another prudent request as well as an environmental survey particularly you know this area is very susceptible to rapid ohia death and I do believe that survey results from an environmental perspective should be turned over to the planning prior to any tree cutting for this permit which is a vegetated area. So, it should be approved by Planning beforehand. I would just like to commend you all and remind you that Section 47 USC 332.(c)(7)(A) clearly states that the local governments do have the power to regulate the placement of wireless facilities and aside from your precious time and our County's resources they do not get any damages or attorney fees through these suits of these lawsuits. So, I'd just like to encourage you all with your initial decisions that you made, and I would like to again to thank you all for your time. I do not believe that there is a sufficient fall zone here for this tower and I would like an alternative location to be available that's less intrusive as it was suggested initially in the first So, thank you all so much for this time and consideration "—".
