Correspondence re Proposed Cell Tower May 6,2024 Arroyo Grande City Council 300 East Branch Street Arroyo Grande, CA 93420 Re: Proposed Cell Tower My husband and I are residents of Sunrise Terrace Mobile Home Park in Arroyo Grande. The site of the proposed cell tower is next to the entrance to our homes. We strongly object for the following reasons: First of all it will be unsightly and would lower the tone or our neighborhood,thus spoiling the beautiful entrance to Sunrise Terrace and would negatively impact our property values. A number of studies have suggested that these cell towers may be hazardous to health when situated close to housing areas. As we are all seniors,this is a risk we are not willing to take. Please do not allow the cell tower to be in the proposed site. Respectfully, #44/ actAff Hiliary and Bill Craig Arroyo Grande,CA 93420 May 11, 2024 Arroyo Grande City Manager Planning Department Manager Planning Commission Manager CC: Mayor and City Council 300 E. Branch Street Arroyo Grande, CA 93420 To Whom It May Concern: lam writing to strongly oppose the placement of a cell tower at 789 Valley Road,Arroyo Grande, California. This installation will cause economic hardship to myself and many__ other senior citizens living at Sunrise Terrace Mobile Home Park, as well as to the residents in surrounding neighborhoods. The homes here at Sunrise Terrace range in price from$500,000 to$750,000. Part of the attraction is the amenities,the visual ambiance, and the beauty of the neighborhood. All these factors will be negatively affected by the atrocious eyesore that a 55-foot high"water tower"will impose on us. In a previous meeting,the members here were informed that in addition to the tower, any communication company would be able to attach more equipment to it,thus creating an unidentifiable monster equivalent to a 5 to 6-story building right next to the entrance of our homes. In this location it would be seen every time we or potential buyers come in and out. There is plenty of open space in the surrounding area, and there were other locations that Verizon did not take the time to investigate. Real estate studies show that home values drop from 8-20%when homes are within 1 mile of a cell tower.We cannot afford to lose value in our homes,which we worked hard for, and have invested in for our future needs! Verizon can and should find another more remote location not near residential areas. Verizon stated previously that the company would also need an additional 2-3 more towers to get the coverage they want. That triangle of towers needs to be moved away from our homes entirely. Sincerely, -71:11(411:44157.2441/4----- G'`'41') Lillian Rosen&Randy Nickson Arroyo Grande,CA 93420 Arroyo Grande City Council 300 East Branch Street Arroyo Grande, Ca. 93420 Dear Sirs and Madams, I have learned that a communications firm (Verizon, I believe) hopes to erect a huge tower right outside the front gate of Sunrise Terrace Mobile Home Park in Arroyo Grande. My wife and I reside there and own a share in the park. It is my understanding that the firm needs your permission to erect such a tower. Hopefully, you will not permit them to do so. We try very hard to make this the premier mobile home park on the Central Coast. Up to now,we have succeeded. We have a beautiful park, one in which every space is coveted by senior citizens who would like to move here.An unsightly monstrosity like that proposed would negatively impact not only the aesthetics of our park but also the value of the spaces. Please do not allow a commercial firm to sully and negatively impact what we have achieved. Sincerely, Larry Kates Arroyo Grande, Ca. Arroyo Grande City Council May 6, 2024 300 East Branch Street Arroyo Grande, CA. 93420 Dear Members of the City Council, I was shocked when I learned that a huge cell tower might be placed right outside the front gate to our mobile home park.We moved here from Arcadia, California. It is such a beautiful park and is known as a premier mobile home park. It is shocking that you might even consider allowing the building of such a structure at our entrance. We have a beautiful park with tennis courts, swimming pool, exercise room with modern equipment as well as a pool, bocci ball courts and a small golf Course. Please vote no on allowing the tower to be placed near our entrance. It would negatively impact our park and the value of the spaces.
