PROJECT TITLE:
Cellular Tower - Co-location.
PURPOSE OF REVIEW:
Possibility of locating a tower at Fire Station, or on City
Property.
Present: Steve Smart, Attorney Thomas J. Holmes, Jerry Rowland, Merlin Miller, Ray Griffin,
Ron Conlin and Larry Kob2~topp.
Alan Water and Frank O' Leafy, New Corn Wireless were present to explain their proposal.
Mr. O' Leary explained they are looking for a site around Chubbuck. They proposed the tower be
located at the Chubbuck Fire Station, they said they have a lease ageement with several
cities in the area. Pocatello and Twin Falls both have New Corn Wireless towers on their
properties.
Mr. O. Leary explained the pole would be wood and be approx. 90' high. They would need
approx. 8' dia. for the pole, and approx. 8'x14 1/2' for an equipment control building. The
tower can also be attached to the Fire Station itself.
The lease agreements are usually a 5 year option, with increases up to 3% per year, or some kind
of a trade off by using the tower to help City communications. Mr. O' Leary said he
thought the City of Pocatello is collecting $2,700. annually for their leasing of prolperty. It
just depends on what the City's needs are.
Eric King said he did not have a problem with it being location somewhere at the Fire Station.
After discussion, the Committee asked New Com Wireless Representatives to present a site plan
of where the tower and equipment building will be and present at a Design Review
Meeting with Mayor Cotant present.
