<br />This site will enhance public safety and welfare because it will enable US West to bring this new CDMA <br />cellular technology to the area. The ability to transmit data such as fax, paging and computer data <br />transmission will open a whole new way for business, individuals, and government services to <br />communicate. Police can use CDMA cellular fax machines as part of their drug enforcement program to <br />obtain immediate search warrants when illegal activity is observed without leaving the scene, Firefighters <br />can receive faxed blueprints of a building in route to more safely fight fires. Ambulances can use it to <br />transmit vital data to emergency rooms which allows the emergency rooms to be better prepared to receive <br />injured accident victims. At spill sites, hazardous material infonnation can be obtained "on site" by <br />accessing computer data bases throughout the country with a CDMA cellular modem. Motorists who do <br />not have the cellular phones are benefited by this system. Passing motorists with a phone can place an <br />emergency call. <br /> <br />CDMA Cellular radio transmissions are very safe and pose no health risk. It is really nothing more than a <br />digital low power two-way radio. CDMA Cellular uses low power to insure that the signal stays within the <br />designated "cell" so it will not interfere with neighboring "cells". The output for PCS cellular is 40 watts. <br />Television and radio station transmitting towers can range from 50,000 watts to one million watts of power <br />output. In fact, the output of a PCS antenna array impacts the population at approximately half the output <br />and associated absorption rate of the microwave oven found in most kitchens. <br /> <br />The question is often asked if the operation of a cellular antenna will affect home radio and television <br />reception. The use of the frequency spectrum is tightly controlled by the Federal Communications <br />Commission (FCC). The CDMA cellular system is operated in the 1900 MHz range. This is a higher <br />frequency on the radio spectrum than home radio and television frequencies. This is important because <br />higher frequency users cannot interfere with lower frequency users. Since 1984, over 15,000 cellular <br />antennas have been erected across the Untied States, and there have been no documented instances of <br />interference with home entertainment equipment. Additionally, CDMA encoding will virtually eliminate <br />the possibility of phone number cloning and cell number theft. <br /> <br />I respectfully request that we be placed on the next available Planning Commission Agenda. I plan to <br />attend the hearing to answer any questions or concerns that the committee or public may have. <br /> <br />I appreciate the assistance I have already received from the Zoning Staff. I look forward to working with <br />you to provide CDMA PCS cellular capability to your area. <br /> <br />Sincerely, <br /> <br />John Hollenbeck <br />Zoning Manager <br />CB Commercial <br />Telecommunications Division <br />
