PUBLIC HEARINGS
Site Plans:
Mr. Orlowski: 5:30 p.m. - Nextel Communications - This proposed site plan
is for a 77 square foot prefabricated equipment enclosure and to affix three
(3) antennas to an existing monopole tower, in Mattituck. SCTM# 1000-108-
Southold Town Planning Board
2 July '13, '1998
4-11.3. Any comments?
Lawrence Re': Yes, first of all, I have the affidavit of posting and the affidavit
of mailing and the green cards. I submit them to the Board.
Appearing for the applicant, Lawrence Re' of law firm Munley, Meade,
Nielsen & Re' with offices at 32 Woodbury Rd. in Huntington. Mr. Chairman,
I'll be brief. This application seeks site plan approval for Nextel to affix three
antennas to the existing pole on Elijah's Lane in Mattituck. Just by way of
background, Nextel is licensed by the FCC to construct and operate a
specialized mobile radio system, or SMR, in Suffolk County. Nextel strives to
provide reliable service throughout the licensed coverage area. At the
present time in Cutchogue and Mattituck,, Nextel coverage is poor. These
antennas would eliminate this coverage gap.
The antennas themselves measure 2-I/2 inches in diameter and a little over
13 feet, plus a 2 foot bracket, so fifteen feet if you count the bracket. They
would be affixed to the existing pole at the top of the pole, but facing down
so they that they will not increase the height of the pole, as depicted on the
plans.
The enclosure measures 11 feet by 7 feet and would enclose related
telecommunications equipment. This site would not require any water,
would not generate any garbage, would be unmanned, would be monitored
remotely on a continuous basis 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. It will
operate at a very Iow power level.
As the Board is probably aware, the Telecommunications Act of ~ 996
preempts local govemments from regulating the placement of wireless
facilities on the basis of their effects on the environment, so long as the
radio frequency emissions are within limits set by the FCC. And we've had
our proposal studied by Bell Labs and 'm going to be submitting a report
that shows that the emissions from this site would be less than 2/100 of 1%
of the FCC standard, so we're quite a bit below the FCC standard.
So, I think this is a good site from every standpoint, it will eliminate the
service gap and at the same time we would be complying with the Town
policy to try to co-locate wherever possible, thereby obviating the need to
build a new tower (inaudible)in the Cutchogue-Mattituck area.
I have Rob O'Connor who is the engineer with Dvirka & Bartilucci present. He
could describe the layout of the site in a little more detail for you, if that's
Southold Town Planning Board
necessary. Rob, why don't you come up.
address on the record.
July 1;5, 1998
If you could state your name and
Rob O'Connor: My name is Rob O'Connor. I represent Dvirka & Bartilucci,
Consulting Engineers, 550 Cross Place Park Drive in Woodbury, New York.
Mr. Re': And you're a licensed engineer?
Mr. O'Connor: Yes, I am. Licensed in New York State.
Mr. Re': And you're familiar with the proposed site?
Mr. O'Connor: Yes, lam.
Mr. Re': OK, could you describe and use the plans that are up on the board,
describe the site layout?
Mr. O'Connor: Sure. The site is an industrial site. The proposed equipment
will be located in a small enclosure set back from the roadway. There's a
barn or storage garage up near the road and in the rear there is an existing
cellular communications building.
Just to the rear of the property within the fenced in compound they will
install a gravel pad and they will install this pre-fabricated shelter that will
come with a little 7xli concrete pad and then the enclosure will just sit right
on top of that.
The cables will then run underground from this enclosure to the existing
monopole and will run up inside the monopole. And services will be
provided underground from the Main Rd. - it looks like LILCO pole...there's no
number here, but the nearest pole right on the (inaudible).
Mr. Re': If the Board has any other questions, that really concludes my
presentation with respect to the site plan.
Mr. Odowski: OK, are there any other comments on this site plan?
Dorothy Conlon: Yes, I'm representing Rosalie Maston, my mother, and I'm
representing my sister Karen Maston, and myself Dorothy Conlon. Now, he
was talking about this pre-fabricated equipment. Is it going to be on the
west side, behind our home, or is it going to be behind the barn? I need to
know.
Southold Town Planning Board
4 July 13, 1998
Mr. Re': OK, as shown on the plans it's west of the other cellular building,
sort of to the southwest of the other cellular building.
Ms. Conlon: Now also, are these antennas going to interfere with our TV, our
radio, any of our electrical equipment?
Mr. Re': No, as a matter of fact I have a radio frequency engineer also, Mr.
Rathweiler, if you'd give your name and address and address that issue.
John Rathweiler: My name is John Rathweiler, Nextel CommuniCations, I
North Broadway, White Plains, NY 10601. The telecommunications
equipment uses frequency (inaudible) by the FCC. Those frequencies will
operate within our band but not interfere with other telecommunications
devices.
Ms. Conlon: I have another question.
want our property value to go down.
and she does not want it.
How about the property value? I don't
ActUally, my mother is a senior citizen
Mr. Re': He's an engineer, but I think I can address that. This site is already
established as a telecommunications site. What's proposed here is just
simply a very small enclosure, 11x7, and three antennas that are 2-1/2 inches
in diameter, so that the character of the neighborhood will remain the same,
it will be very unobtrusive.
Ms. Conlon: Where did you also say where this pre-fabricated equipment will
be located?
Mr. Re': If you'd like to come up and look, it's hard to describe...
Ms. Conion: You'll have to show me her house, where everything is located.
Mr. Re': This is just south of the pole. The pole is located here - here is the
existing cellular building and the little new building will be right here, the
little enclosure.
Ms. Conlon: Where's our house?
Mr. Re': I'm not sure - do you live on Elijah's, across the road from...oh north
of that. This is where Main Rd. is right here. You live on the other side of
the pole, I guess. This would be on the opposite side of the pole here.
Ms. Conlon: Why did they pick that area, that particular area?
Southold Town Planning Board 5 July '1:5, '1998
Mr. IRe': I can give you a short answer and if that's not satisfactory, I can give
a longer one. When there's not good coverage in a particular area, the
engineers, Mr. IRathweiler and his crew will go out and measure the reception
in the surrounding area and determine where a site should be located that
would eliminate that service gap. And the first thing that the engineers and
the folks at Nextel will do is, in that area there if there is an existing pole
tower or tall building, or water tower, they will see if that works, so that we
don't have to build a new tower. Fortunately, in the Mattituck area there
was an existing pole there that does meet the needs and so we right away
decided that that would probably be the best route to go. Because if that
didn't work we would have to build a new tower or pole in the (inaudible)
area and we try not to do that. So, the first thing we do is look where the
service gap is, they look to see where in that area antennas could be placed
that would get rid of the service gap, and then they look to see if there are
any existing structures. So that's how it was decided. We have a map that
we had prepared that shows on the map where the other sites are and this
site lies between...there's a site in IRiverhead, and then there's another one
in Southold and there's nothing in between. And so this is right in between
and will fill in the gap that exists between the IRiverhead site and the site in
Southold.
Ms Conlon: But still it's coming backto the property value. If my mother
wants to sell, is she going to get the amount of money that she's going to
ask for her property, or is this equipment back there going to...
Mr. Re': I don't see that the building of an 11x7 shed in an area that's
already been proved by a 100 foot tower and other Duildings would have any
effect on property value whatsoever, because it's already been established
and we're simply trying to go on that site so that we don't effect possibly
the character of a different neighborhood or the same neig[~oorhood by
building a new structure.
Ms. Conlon: But that is a family neighborhood. It really shouldn't have been
built in the beginning.
Mr. Orlowski: OK, any other comments.
Terry Matthews: My name is Terry Matthews. I live across the street. I was
wondering if there was any documentation of the signal strength or what
the power output would be for these new antennas?
Mr. Rathweiler: The output power of the site will be 100 watts of radiated
power which is well below the FCC specifications and other governing
Southold Town Planning Board
6 July 15, 1998
bodies, and there is an expert witness who could testify to that fact. In
comparison, many people have stereos in their house that operate at 100
watts, so I mean this is a Iow power transmitter. These frequencies were
previously used...are licensed by the FCG for high power television - UHF TV,
and they've been re-licensed to Nextel for much lower powered use.
Mr. Re': Let me interject. Was that the nature of your question or were you
concerned about surrounding sites. Because I have somebody from Bell Labs
who could probably give you more details on the radio frequency emission
as compared to the FCC standard.
Mr. Matthews: Actually, I was concerned with both.
Mr. Re': OK, well Ron why don't you come up and address that.
Ronald Peterson: My name is Ronald Peterson and i'm employed by Bell
Laboratories. I manage a group called The Wireless and Optical Technologies,
Safety Department.
Mr. Re': And Mr. Peterson, you've prepared the report that I submitted to
the Board a little while ago that studied the radio frequency emissions of the
proposed site?
Mr. Peterson: Yes.
Mr. Re': OK, if you could address that in a little more detail.
Mr. Peterson: We were provided with the antenna type that was going to be
installed - transmitter power. Plus the same parameters for the AT&T
equipment that's now on the site. We use a computer model to calculate
what the (inaudible) - could be anywhere from the base of the tower out as
far as you could go so, that would include the surrounding neighborhood.
The model that we use overestimates the actual signals. We made
measurements on losses and we always find. that the actual values are lower
than what we predict. But what we predict is [ess than two thirds of a
percent of what the FCC guidelines are, which is also the same guidelines
that are used by New York State Department of Health.
(Inaudible) when we make measurements it's anywhere from three to ten
times lower than that, so it's a small signal compared to other types of
transmission facilities.
Southold Town Planning Board 7 July 15, 1998
Mr. Matthews: Is that reviewed and measured frequently, constantly...?
Mr. Peterson: it really doesn't have to...no it's not and the reason is because
the antenna, it's pattern is fixed, The transmitter output power is monitored
so as long as that's not changing then the signal strength is not going to
change. And what we found in the past and when we do these reports, we
assume that it operates at the maximum power that it could operate at.
And what we find is that most of them operate at lower powers than that to
keep from interfering with themselves.
Mr. Matthews: At that power (inaudible), should there be any interference
with radio, TV reception, that is, other than cable?
Mr. Peterson: No there won't be. It's a band of frequencies set aside by the
FCC that no one else operates in and the requirements on the equipment
that keep from interfering with other people and adjacent bands such as
cellular and higher frequencies - VCS, really precludes it from causing any
interference. We talk to the FCC quite a bit on issues such as this and they
have no verifiable instances of where any of these sites cause any
interference with any kind of consumer products or medical device or
anything of that sort.
Mr. Matthews: is there a ground meter affixed to this?
Mr. Peterson: No. You mean something that would monitor this?
Mr. Matthews: Yes.
Mr. Peterson: No. The level is small. If it were an AM broadcast station or
perhaps an FM broadcast station that operates at 50,000 or 100,000 watts,
that might be a concern, but this is such a small signal thaT...
Mr. Re': If I could just interject also, Nextel and other carriers, but I know
Nextel for certain, have sites right on hospital roofs. For instance, we had an
application on Huntington Hospital last year and the antennas are up and
transmitting and they don't interfere with any of the hospital equipment as
well as any radio signals, television signals, heart monitoring devices or
anything of that sor~. And Huntington Hospital has been pleased as a
landlord with respect to our site there. Thank you.
Mr. Matthews: Unrelated to the question of power and the (inaudible) it
would present - the driveway, would that use the existing stone driveway?
Would that be shared?
Sou~hold Town Planning Board 8 July 15, 1998
Unknown: Yes. That's (inaudible). There's an existing third driveway that
goes past the barn?
Mr. Matthews: it's actually stone.
Unknown: Or dirt and stone. That's how Nextel would access the site.
Mr. Matthews: So the existing buildJng...I 'm not sure where this building
going, it was unclear on the site...but it did not show it southwest on the
information, at least it didn't appear to (inaudible).
Mr. Re': This is the existing cellular telephone building. (Everyone talking).
Mr. Matthews: The only concern that I would have, if not for the frequency
and the output which although I haven't seen the actual documentation I go
by the word of the people who are presenting, is this pre-fabricated building
or whatever type of building it is, is it going to be more visible in the
neighborhood than the existing building? This building appears it's going to
be straight back at the end of the road and I too would have to share
concerns of the property value in the area. Quite frankly, the tower went up
the last time before I knew it was going up. It has been a good neighbor, it's
quiet, but this building that's planned to be built apparently is going to be a
little more obvious from the Main Rd. And I do have concerns about
property value in the area.
Mr. Orlowski: Mr. Matthews, is there any effect now to your television?
Mr. Matthews: When it was first put in there was no cable, so there was a
definite effect. Since I hooked up to cable, no. I would say to the radio
station certainly AM stations out of New York City I've noticed that that was
effected, but I don't anticipate that that would be any greater than what it is
now. My feeling is that's the tower and not necessarily the output from the
attachments to it. The concern that I would have now is this building looks
like it would be rather apparent from Elijah's Lane.
Mr. Orlowski: Ms, Maston does your mother have any effect from the...
Ms. Maston: NO, not at the moment. I have another question. Is this for the
truck drivers? Is it used for CB, that they want to transmit, talk to each
other or get in touch with someone in another state or...?
Mr. Re': It's not CB but there are commercial users who use Nextel as well as
individuals so there are all different types of users. Some may be driving
Soutl~old Town Planning Board 9 July 15, 1998
trucks and vans and cabs and things like that but it's not a CB...
Mr. Orlowski: How tall is that building?
Mr. Re': The building, I believe is eight feet tail...is that right? Approximately
eight feet.
Mr. Kassner: Mr. Re' can I ask what color the enclosure
Mr. Re': I think it's going to be set up to match the existing ...brown agreate,
I'm told, with a stone finish.
Mr. Kassner: Just for the record, it looks like the equipment structure is
about 300 feet back from Elijah's Lane.
Mr. Re': I believe that's right, about 300 feet.
Mr. Orlowski: You wouldn't have any problem buffering that with plantings?
Mr. Re': No, we could put some landscaping around it. Yes.
Mr. Orlowski: Are there any other questions or comments on this? Hearing
none, are there any questions from the Board? Mr. Ward?
Any questions from the Board? Mr. Ward?
Mr. Ward: No.
Mr. Orlowski: Mr. Latham?
Mr. Latham: Only about this interference. If there is any interference, what
recourse do the people have? Who do they go to to correct the
interference if it ever happens?
Mr. Peterson: If there is interference it's up to the service provider to
remedy it, but I can assure you it's not. It just operates at a completely
different part of the spectrum and other communications: But the service
provider is responsible for insuring that it doesn't happen.
Mr. Latham: So if there is a problem, the people around it would have some
recourse.
Mr. Peterson: Yes.

the Surveys dated June 11, 1998, and authorize the Chairman to endorse the
final surveys subject t° a one year review from date of building permit.
Mr. Cremers: Second the motion.
Mr. Orlowski: Motion made and seconded. Just on that motion, we ask for
the landscaping. We'd like to see a landscaping plan.
Mr. Re': Would that be completely surrounding the building or for facing
Elijah's Lane?
Mr. Orlowski: Well it appears...we'd like to cut it off from the neighbors and
the people around it so they can't see it, so some tall arborvitae would
probably make it look a whole lot better. But we would like to see that ona
plan. So then maybe the neighbors will come in and take a look.

Donna Dzugas Smith: When it's held open too...like weattended the last
Southold Town Planning Board
July 13, 1998
Architectural Review Committee that was held about this.. :because it seems
like you have public hearings and you have work sessions and (inaudible) so
I'm trying to follow this. But things that were brought up at the
Architectural Review Committee gets (inaudible) over to Jimbo and that gets
all considered, then is that open to public comment again? Because there
were things that were changed at the last Architectural Review...
Mr. Orlowski: Did you get the last report?
Ms. Dzugas Smith: No we didn't. There was (inaudible) talk and then we
were told that we can't ask questions and so it makes it hard when you can't
communicate at meetings, so we're kind of waiting for our point to make
comments about what was said and decided at that meeting. So when is
that appropriate to bring that up?
Mr. Orlowski: Well, there is a report from the Architectural Review which this
Board is in favor of, and it's available and you can take a look at it. (CHANGE
TAPE). That's the one the Board is asking the applicant to amend his site
plan and respond to it and we're waiting for that site plan.
Ms. Dzugas Smith: So at the next public hearing we could...
Mr. Kassner: Could I make a comment. I just might inform you that next
Monday, which is the 20th, at the work session at 4:30 Mr. Gray is coming in
and we're going to review this with him and the Architectural Review Board.
Ms. Dzugas Smith: That's good to know. Thank you.
Mr. Orlowski: I didn't even know that.
