Dear Honorable Councilmembers,Please 'Voteto amend the AGF ordinance so that we can stop AT&T from putting a cel! phone tower on one of ourmost beautiful bluffs.

AT&T has applied to the California Coastal Commission to put a 45 foot tower at 302 Mt. Holyoke( Applicationnumber:5-12-146.) Please vote to amend the regulations so that we can keep the cell tower out of the park wheremany of our children play and all of us enjoy a spectacular view of the Pacific Ocean

Placing an industrial commercial wireless telecommunications facility at: 302 Mount Holyoke Ave., PacificPalisades is completely incompatible with the use and purpose of the family homes in our R1 zonedneighborhood. Further, this cel! tower is right beside a park where children play. It would create an aestheticblight since it would be located next to Palisades Park (a public park) and in a coastal zone. It would bedetrimental to the health of our families, the value of our property, the reputation of our local public schools, andthe character of our neighborhoods.

Please vote to provide regulation for the following:Elimination of the utility pole exemption (BIG!)Expansion of the notice provisions (to be determined, but currently limited to "adjoining/abutting/across thestreet" property owners/occupants)

Enhancement 01 the aesthetic provisions (to be determined, but certainly any enhancement would be animprovement since there are virtually no such provisions related to towers in the current ordinance!)Imposition of permit duration limits (again to be determined; currently there are none)Expansion of the right of appeal to "all aggrieved persons" (1. e" consistent with appeal rights under LA ZoningCode for CUPs/private property installations; currently, appeal of AGF permits in the PROW is only afforded tothe limited number of owners/occupants who received notice -- a highly restrictive provision which stands aloneamong California cities),Requirement for the applicant to map all existing wireless facilities and to project anticipatedfuture needs in the area or community served by the proposed facility,Provision for public comment and/or a hearing prior to permit issuance, for all proposed installations in residentialzones (currently no such hearings are provided for),Requirement for the applicant to provde an RF emissions analysis and/or a certification 01 compliance with FCCrequirements (again, no such provsion in current ordinance),Requirement for the applicant to map all existing wireless facilities and to project anticipated future needs in thecommunity served by the proposed facility (same),Provide a temporary moratorium on PROW installations (not onprivate property installations) while the Ordinance is being draftedRequirement for the applicant to bear the expense of an independent expert to assist the City, asneeded, with analysis of technical issues such as coverage gap claims, RF emissions andalternative location feasi bility.

Sincerely,

As a society, are we really going to erase the little beauty we have in urban areas? Is it not possible with a littleeffort to maintain form with function? Please take a stand for all of us,

AT&T has applied to the California Coastal Commission to put a 45 foot tower at 302 Mt. Holyoke( Applicationnumber:5-12-146.) Please vote to amend the regulations so that we can keep the cell tower out of the park wheremany of our children play and all 01 us enjoy a spectacular view of the Pacific Ocean

Placing an industrial commercial wireless telecommunications facility at: 302 Mount Holyoke Ave., PacificPalisades is completely incompatible with the use and purpose of the family homes in our R1 zonedneighborhood. Further, this cell tower is right beside a park where children play. It would create an aestheticblight since it would be located next to Palisades Park (a public park) and in a coastal zone. It would bedetrimental to the health of our families, the value of our property, the reputation of our local public schools, andthe character of our neighborhoods.

Please vote to provide regulation for the following:

Elimination 01 the utility pole exemption (BIG!)Expansion of the notice provisions (to be determined, but currently limited to "adjoining/abutting/across thestreet" property owners/occupants)Enhancement of the aesthetic provisions (to be determined, but certainly any enhancement would be animprovement since there are virtually no such provisions related to towers in the current ordinance!)Imposition of permit duration limits (again to be determined; currently there are none)Expansion of the right of appea! to "an aggrieved persons" (i.e., consistent with appeal rights under L.A ZoningCode for CUPs/private property installations; currently, appeal of AGF permits in the PROW is only afforded tothe limited number of owners/occupants who received notice -- a highly restrictive provision which stands aloneamong California cities).Requirement for the applicant to map all existinq wireless facilities and to project anticipatedfuture needs in the area or community served by the proposed facility.Provision for public comment and/or a hearing prior to permit issuance, for all proposed installations in residentialzones (currently no such hearings are provided for),Requirement for the applicant to provide an RF emissions analysis and/or a certification of compliance with FCCrequirements (again, no such provision in current ordinance),Requirement for the applicant to map all existing wireless facilities and to project anticipated iuture needs in thecommunity served by the proposed facility (same).Provide a temporary moratorium on PROW installations (not onprivate property installations) while the Ordinance is being draftedRequirement for the applicant to bear the expense of an independent expert to assist the City, asneeded, with analysis of technical issues such as coverage gap claims, RF emissions andalternative location feasibility.

Fwd: CF 09-2645 City Attorney Final Report on Placement of Cell Towers andRelated Equipment

---------- Forwarded message ----------From: Sheri A Saperstein Date: Fri, Sep 7,2012 at 12:18 PMSubject: Re: CF 09-2645 City Attorney Final Report on Placement of Cell Towers and Related EquipmentTo: [email protected]: [email protected]

Dear Council member Wesson,

I urge City Council to swiftly enact the City Attorney's recommended "Above Ground Facility Ordinance," andalso to place a temporary moratorium on all cell phone tower-related placement activity until the new ordinance isin effect.

Specifically and in addition, I urge:

.. expansion of the notice requirement* enhancement of the aesthetic provisions* elimination of the utility pole exemption.. Imposition of permit duration limits

Although my wording is bollerplate, please understand that this issue of great importance to me. I haveconsidered each word, and it is important to me that each action mentioned be taken.

Our civic landscape is too important a shared resource to be damaged by unnecessarily irresponsiblecommercial activity. I use a cell phone, and do want cell phone towers to exist. But they don't need to degradeour landscape.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Honorable Council member Englander:

For several years, wireless telecommunications providers have been taking advantage of deficienciesin the LAMC in order to place unsightly cell towers (AKA Wireless Telecommunication Facilitiesor WTFs) in close proximity to residences and along scenic routes, These companies have utilizedexemptions granted to public utilities in order to place facilities within the public right of way(PROW) in areas where they would otherwise not be allowed; In 2009, the City Council directedthe City Attorney to report on mechanisms available to regulate the placement of these WTFs,Subsequently, the City Attorney provided the requested report along with the followingrecommendations:

• Elimination of the utility pole exemption• EXpansion of the notice provisions• Enhancement-of the aesthetic provisions• Imposition of permit duration limits '

Numerous California municipalities have included several of the below listed provisions regulatingPROW install
