Approved 3113117 and their citation is Time Magazine reported a June 2 "a 2015 that 76% of home buyers consider 2 cell coverage important in their home buying decision. So, I am justifying this that I am not alone 3 in being concerned that the broader housing property value, if we take it as a whole for Orange 4 County, will be positively affected by increasing cell phone coverage. So I appreciate your time, 5 and I wish you well on your decision - making. I'll leave these letters with you as well. 6 7 Samantha Cabe: Alright, what was your third? 8 9 John Duncan Williams Jr: My third was the aesthetics. I can't professionally... I can't cordially 10 respond to the aesthetic concerns I've heard and so I've decided it's not important for me to 11 respond to those at this time. 12 13 Samantha Cabe: Thank you. 14 15 John Duncan Williams Jr: Sure. Can I give you all these letters? Ok. 16 17 Barry Katz: That letter for citation was Blomquist, did you say? 18 19 John Duncan Williams Jr: Yeah. Let me tell you. I had it in Google document on my phone. I have 20 the link to it. Actually, I usually embed them so if it was email, but I can tell you a link or honestly, 21 would you like to take a picture or write it down right here? So this would be like a general internet 22 search. In reviewing the health literature, I'm glad in the last meeting I heard the Board say we're 23 not acknowledging that, because I spent a good bit of time looking at that, and I have several 24 different pieces I would pull into it, but I think where I'm concerned is there are these sites that 1 25 find are making money off of the alarmist mentality that there are health concerns related to it by 26 selling anti -EMF radiation or anti -RF radiation things and then publishing reports and then these 27 reports I have found sited on more than one website. I don't feel a need to get into that. American 28 Cancer Society is one enough, but you add the World Health Organization and Health Canada, 29 which is the state run Canadian source. I feel like I had those three and I could provide the 30 citations. They're also publically available. I mean, I found them on my cell phone. Again, sitting in 31 this meeting the last time. So ok, is that it? 32 33 Barry Katz: Have a good evening. 34 35 Samantha Cabe: Thank you. 36 37 Barry Katz: I've got a question for Mr. Harvey. You can shake your head, you don't have to... on 38 these 50 -foot towers, or whatever they are, the short towers, do they need Special Use Permits 39 for those as well as the same as these 199 -foot towers? 40 41 Michael Harvey: No sir. 42 43 Barry Katz: Ok. 44 45 Ben Levitan: I think we found our location for our first lamppost mounted small cell in Chapel Hill. 46 47 John Price: Mr. Levitan, your opinion is that the search ring identified by TowerCom the area 48 where a wireless support structure must be located to meet Verizon's service needs? The search 49 ring identified by Verizon. Is that the area where a wireless support structure or structures must be 50 located to meet the service needs?
