Mr. Kyle, still referring to the photos, stated that a visual impact already exists with the tower already there. He noted that the residents of Eagle Ridge will only see the back side of the dish antenna after it is installed. Ms. Borg asked if Mr. Kyle had a photo of the back of the dish so that they could see what it would look like and Mr. Kyle replied no, Mr. Lavigne stated that, at the last meeting, the applicant agreed to paint the dishes and the radomes to match the tower. Mr. Buechler asked Ms. Borg if the towers predated the Eagle Ridge Condos and Ms. Borg said that they did. Mr. Kyle stated that there are five towers on Marcella Avenue. He said that there will not be a major visual impact on the area because there are large dish antennas on another tower on Marcella Avenue. Chairman Neuer asked the Board members if they had any questions for Mr. Kyle. Mr. Bullock said that Mr. Kyle’s report stated that this tower is structurally sufficient to handle these dishes but yet there was no attempt to get a structurally sound inspection report. He asked Mr. Kyle if he thought that a 36 year old structure didn’t need a current inspection report and asked if he thought this was normal. Mr. Kyle said that all that they ever get is a New Jersey licensed structural engineer report which usually suffices, Mr. Keller stated that he is not aware if an inspection report even exists. The applicant is supposed to conduct a structure report, according to the industry guidelines, but no one has seen one. Ms. Borg asked Mr. Kyle if there have been any inspections in the past 36 years specifically ones that checked for corrosion or deterioration of the metal. Mr. Kyle stated that this is a stainless steel tower and stainless has a higher resistance to corrosion. He said that if the Board needs a current inspection report they will provide. Ms. Gabry asked Mr. Kyle if someone would have to subscribe to the services that are going to be transmitted from these towers or would it be available to the public. Mr. Kyle stated that they would have to subscribe. There were no other questions for Mr. Kyle from the Board. Ms. Borg asked how much faster microwave is from fiber optic and how much cheaper it is. Mr. Kyle stated that he has no opinion regarding that. Chairman Neuer asked if there were any members of the public that bad any questions for Mr. Kyle based on

iber optic and how much cheaper it is. Mr. Kyle stated that he has no opinion regarding that. Chairman Neuer asked if there were any members of the public that bad any questions for Mr. Kyle based on his testimony. Joseph Bums approached the podium and stated that he lives at 364 Styles Court in the Eagle Ridge complex. He said that his question is regarding the stability of the tower and asked Mr. Kyle if this tower could sustain 120 mph winds. Chairman Neuer stated that Mr. Kyle cannot answer that question because Mr. Suppa, the applicant’s engineer, testified to that at the last meeting. The Chairman asked Mr. Lavigne if he would like to call Mr. Suppa to the podium to answer that question and Mr. Lavigne said yes. Mr. Suppa approached the podium and
