The separation <br />distances shall be measured by drawing or following a straight line between the <br />base of the preexisting tower and the base location, pursuant to a site plan, of the <br />proposed tower. <br />Please see Sheet C1 of Exhibit "1". The closest existing tower is a 256- <br />foot self-support located 8,450 feet to the Southwest, thus meeting the <br />separation requirements in Table 2. <br />b. SECURITY FENCING-Towers shall be enclosed by security fencing not less than <br />six( 6) feet in height and no more than eight (8) feet in height, constructed of <br />block or masonry or wood material, and shall be equipped in such a manner as to <br />deter climbing. <br />Please see Sheet C3 of Exhibit "1". <br />c. LANDSCAPING-Tower facilities shall be landscaped with a buffer of plant <br />materials that effectively screens the view of the tower compound from adjacent <br />residential property. The standard buffer shall consist of a landscaped strip at <br />least four (4) feet wide outside the perimeter of the compound. Plant materials <br />forming the visual buffer may be existing on the subject property or installed as <br />part of the proposed facility, but existing mature plant growth and natural land <br />forms on the site shall be preserved to the maximum extent possible. The <br />Administrator may waive these requirements in locations where the view of the <br />tower base is obstructed by existing buildings or natural topography and cannot <br />be viewed from adjacent property or a public street. <br />Please see Sheet L1 of Exhibit "1". <br />In addition, please find the following items in support of the application, the Tower <br />Removal Letter by David Herring of SCI Towers, attached hereto as Exhibit "3" and <br />incorporated herein by reference; the Existing Towers Letter by David Herring of SCI <br />Towers, attached hereto as Exhibit "6" and incorporated herein by reference; the <br />Redacted Option & Lease Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit "8" and incorporated <br />herein by reference; the FAA I-A Survey Certification, attached hereto as Exhibit "9" and <br />incorporated herein by reference; the List of Surrounding Property Owners, attached
