Repeat that please. <br />David Smith: As long as there's some screen from the trees or from a buffer, I don't think it <br />impacts the property values. <br />John Price: Well if there are mature trees and you made a note that it's completely surrounded by <br />mature trees, aren't you saying because of that there's less impact? <br />David Smith: I'm describing the property. <br />John Price: You also note in the report that the area between the least area and the tower site are <br />heavily wooded. <br />David Smith: Yes. <br />John Price: You also make the statement in your report, "If the trees are removed a 40 -foot wide <br />landscape buffer would be installed. ". <br />David Smith: Yes. <br />John Price: Were you aware at the time you prepared your analysis that the Butner family that <br />owns the property on which the cell tower was going to be constructed was going to be <br />considering timbering this property? <br />David Smith: No. <br />John Price: No one advised you of that with Towercom? <br />David Smith: No. <br />OC Board of Adjustment —12/12/16 <br />Page 27 of 156 <br />
