Vice Chairman Buechter addressed Mr. Pryor and stated that the new Engincer’s certification received in response to the Board’s request was circulated this afternoon. Ms. Beirne said that she received it today. Vice Chairman Buechler said that this application was submitted in March and that at the meeting last month, Mr. Pryor’s colleague attended the meeting and was told the certification had serious inconsistencies. Mr. Pryor stated that the original certification was emailed to his office on June 10" with the Engineer’s name typed in. He said that Ms. Beirne notified him that the certification needed the signature of the engineer. Mr. Pryor said that the certification had the incorrect signature on it because the wrong engineer signed it; he said that Mr. Jones signed it instead of Mr. Robinson. He said that he did not get the certification back with the correct engineer’s signature on it 10 days prior to this meeting and that he faxed it to Ms. Beirne yesterday. Vice Chairman Buechler said that the Board discussed a prior resolution condition that required the removal of all antennas from the tower that are not in use. He said that the certification from the engincer states that the antennas still need to be removed and that he will not permit a vote on the resolution to proceed because there are still non-functioning antennas on the tower. Mr. Pryor said that the reason the non-functioning antennas were not removed is because there is a nest on the tower and there is an Environmental Protection Agency regulation that no one can go on that tower to remove the nest. Vice Chairman Buechler asked what regulation that is; Mr. Pryor said that he cannot cite the regulation but that the tower operators are careful not to remove the nest due to this regulation. Vice Chairman Buechler said that he will recommend to the other Board members that they do not vote on this application until all of the antennas that are not in use are
nest due to this regulation. Vice Chairman Buechler said that he will recommend to the other Board members that they do not vote on this application until all of the antennas that are not in use are removed from the tower. He said that the Board is going to need documentation as to when the antennas are going 1o be removed and certification as to when the nest will be removed. 4
