of TMs s,s <br /> z. <br /> Aannin Board <br /> c� <br /> 16 Great Neck Road NOYth <br /> .wlashpee, Aassachusetts 02649 <br /> Mr. Vellante stated the burden on existing sites will be reduced. <br /> Ms. Faulkner noted the coverage gap, she has never had a problem in this area, and she lives <br /> a mile away. She would like to know how driving test data is assembled and where the gaps <br /> are. <br /> Mr. Vellante stated the higher bands don't reach as far, so additional support is needed for that <br /> capacity. There is some degree of coverage in this area, but it is not strong enough to support <br /> all the usage, showing a gap in service. <br /> Ms. Faulkner continued that the trees on this site are between 75ft-85ft. does that monopole <br /> go on the ground or is it built on a base? <br /> Mr. Vellante answered the height is the overall for the tower, from the concrete foundation to <br /> the top of the pole. <br /> Ms. Faulkner stated 55ft. would show above the treetops. She read that the monopole is made <br /> of steel, a gray galvanized steel that can be painted. She read it will not be painted, so there <br /> will be no glare. It can have a condition and Ms. Waygan mentioned camouflage. <br /> Mr. Milbury asked who this services, and it was stated that any Verizon customer traveling <br /> through or living in the area. He continued to ask of the number of customers in Mashpee, and <br /> if there will need more poles for coverage in the future. The pole goes up, it won't be pretty, <br /> and it runs along a major road, and sits not that far from the roadway. Can everything be <br /> handled with this one pole? <br /> The applicant stated that wireless demand is growing and is a constant challenge to keep up <br /> with that demand. He is not aware of future plans right now for additional poles. <br /> Ms. Faulkner echoed New Seabury being known for dropped calls, but New Seabury refused <br /> it. <br /> Ms. Waygan stated there are extremely strong federal laws about allowing wireless facilities in <br /> areas that don't have strong coverage. <br /> Mr. Tobin asked if the proponent wouldn't mind breaking down the practical uses and needs <br /> differences for 2100MHz vs. 700MHz, as well as explain the green and yellow service areas <br /> rendering on the provided maps. <br /> 4 <br />
