i <br /> Yes, the monopole design has the same safety features as a <br /> lattice tower design. The monopole is designed to fail, but when <br /> modeled to fail that portion of the tower designed as a weak link <br /> will bend over, remaining attached to the tower, it will not <br /> fall Off. The tower will not break apart and remove itself from <br /> the structure. <br /> Mr, Joyal stated he has four (4 ) leases. <br /> The development process has a no disturbance factor, as- -no <br /> vegetation whatsoever will be removed from the -site. <br /> Dennis Balarini asked about current use of the exit'inc <br /> building. <br /> r. Joyal responded that outside of the fall zone required <br /> by the By-law there will be no active use of the building. There <br /> will be no active use of the building whatsoever within the fall <br /> zone established by the By-law. That portion of the building <br /> located within the fall zone will be used for storage . <br /> The Town Planner explained that the By-law rewires a 150 <br /> ft . fall zone, however the Board as part of the Special Permit <br /> can reduce that figure by 75 ft . The zoning question in this <br /> natter refers to the fall zone, as the proposed project does not <br /> proVide. for a 7 -ft. fall zone. No business is allowed within <br /> said 7 -ft. The current storage use of the building is <br /> considered to be a business . <br /> Attorney Iirrane took issue with the Town Planner' s <br /> interpretation of" the By-law fall zone requirements . <br /> Don Myers questioned the- parking situation around the <br /> existing building/lot, asking if parking activity would continue <br /> to tape place after the tower is constructed. Would parking <br /> activity be restricted within. the 7 -ft. perimeter around the <br /> building. <br /> Mr.. Jo al responded, "' o. " [finless the Planning Board made it <br /> mandatory, He stated the issue could be mitigated and resolved <br /> through the design/structural integrity of the tower. <br /> Don Myers expressed some concer.n with statements made that <br /> the tower " . . .will never fail" . <br /> Attorney Kirrane argued that there is inconsistency within <br /> theBy-law as it suggests and recommends that these facilities be <br /> located on or attached to existing structures . <br /> The Town Planner clarified the By-latwreads " . . .mounted <br /> on. . .
