All costs associated widi zoning and City approval will be paid by The Everest Group and Sprint Sepante power and telephone connectioas will be run so that no utility bills are shared. Any property tax increase t^ is a result of the new liKility will be paid by Sprint Sprint will provide insuraoce for the fiKility and obviously, Sprint will pay for the construction of the new fKility upon the leased premises. • Size and Location: Sprint was directed to the Old Crystal Bay Post Office tocadon by Ron Moorse of the City of Orono. The area near the old post office located on Brown Road was analyzed by Sprint and it appears that the site will meet Sprint’s coverage objectives. Ideally, the preferr^ height of the tower would be one hundred feet, but Sprint is willing to consider a lessCT height ofeighly feet that wiU meet the basic coverage objectives. The proposed facility would be placed to the rear of the existing post office building. The minimum lease area Sprint typically requires is a 50* x 50* parcel. However, Sprint would a^gain be willing to minimize the impact upon the area with a 20* x 25* parcel The fiKrility and tower could be screened in any manner that is appropriate to minimize its visual impact upon the neighborhood. • Maintenance and Traffic: The facility would require roaintenance, at most, once or twice a month by one or two Sprint maintenance technicians in a typical commercial van or truck. The maintenance individual would only need to access the equipment area and no other part of the property. • Nobc and Disturbances: The facility will not generate any vibrations, smoke or particulate matter, toxic or noxious matter, odorous matter, fire or explosive hazards, glare, heat, liquid or solid w aste or radioactive materials. The only noise that will be made is that of a standard air conditioner unit • Safely: The transmission antennas do not pose hazards to human health. Studies and reports verify^g the safety of the facilities can be provided at your request Thank you for your consideration and time in this matter. If you are interested in the possibili^ of locating this proposed Sprint facility upon the land described above, or if you have any further questions, please contact me at your earliest convenience as time is of the essence in this matter.
