RE: Proposed Upgrade of Existing Wireless Facility
Dear Ted,
1 1 western9M
wireless
Western Wireless requests your review of proposed upgrades to its existing wireless
facility located at the top of the 16 story First National Bank building located at 215 West
Oak Street near downtown Fort Collins. Formerly zoned General Business, the location
is now zoned Downtown District. The site design, approved on December 31, 1996,
consists of three sled mount support structures, each supporting two panel antennas for a
total of six panel antennas. Also one BTS equipment unit is located at the site.
Western's proposed additions include a second BTS unit located near its existing BTS
unit in addition to a two foot microwave dish, which will be attached to one of the
existing sled mount support structures.
Because of the extreme height of the building, the visual impact of such a proposal will
be barely noticeable from the ground and therefor a photo simulation from on top of the
roof is enclosed with this letter. At your request, the microwave dish can be painted any
color you see fit.
Western submits this minimal impact proposal for processing under Type 1
Administrative Review in accordance with the Land Use Code updated December 1997.
Please call me with any questions or comments. I can be reached at (303) 359-0099.
Sincerely,
Troy Miller

Dear Troy:
'rvices
January 11, 1999
I have received your photo simulation and request to upgrade the wireless
telecommunications equipment atop the First National Bank at 215 West Oak Street.
Your request is to add one B.T.S. cabinet and one microwave antenna dish, two feet in
diameter.
These additions are extremely minor and not visible from the public street. Therefore, it
will not be necessary to submit a Minor Amendment as we originally discussed. You
may proceed with the installation.
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. If you have any further questions, please
feel free to call our office.
Sincerely:
