Tower Selection and Antennas <br /> The new monopalm will be constructed of structural galvanized steel and accommodate <br /> Verizon's twelve(12) panel antennas, and its appurtenant equipment. The tower will also <br /> be designed for at least one future collocation. <br /> Visual Impacts <br /> Potential visual impact will be mitigated with a stealth tower design that emulates the <br /> appearance of a palm tree. This type of tower, often referred to as a monopalm, will have <br /> a pole made to look like the trunk of a tree, and imitation palm fronds installed at the top <br /> of the pole. Additionally, the antennas will be painted green to match. The objective of <br /> this design is to diminish visual impact the installation may have on the view plane of <br /> passersby and neighbors. <br /> Color <br /> The pole will be painted a tannish brown color, and antennas painted green to replicate <br /> the look of a palm tree. <br /> Lighting <br /> Due to the short height and distance from any airport, lighting of the monopalm is not <br /> required, and will not be used. A work light will be installed within the ground equipment <br /> area to provide nighttime visibility should Verizon's technicians need to be at the site <br /> during evening hours. This work light will not be on at all times. <br /> Landscaping <br /> The design plan does not include the relocation or planting of new vegetation around the <br /> perimeter of the site because the existing surroundings of the proposed site includes wild <br /> grass in the immediate area, and trees strewn across the expanse. <br /> Safety <br /> There will be 8' tall CMU wall with an entry gate. The gate will be locked to prevent <br /> public access. The antennas will be inaccessible due to the height of the tower. All <br /> hazard signs will be installed as mandated by the FCC. <br /> 4. Federal Aviation Administration Determination: <br /> Verizon Wireless adheres to strict Federal Aviation Administration rules governing <br /> antenna installation, maintenance, and safety to its facilities. <br /> 5. Federal Communications Commission Requirements: <br /> Registration with the FCC is not required for this tower. However, Verizon and all <br /> subsequent co-locators will be responsible for complying with the radio frequency <br /> emission standards set by the FCC. <br /> 6.
