A VIEW FROM
BIKE PATH
• Putting a cell tower in Rahilly Park
will set a precedent
• Palms Do NOT hide infrastructure
• NO public space will be safe
• It will disrupt a scenic view from the
bike path
• City will be dominated by industrial
looking infrastructure
Palm trees
not
Hide
Do
towers
PROPERTY VALUES WILL DROP
• By up to 10% according to EEnviornmental Health Trust https://ehtrust.org/new-research- cell-towers-near-homes-drop-property-values/
• Wireless Equity Group " A study by The Empirical Economics Letters, Aug. 2019, titled The Disamenity Value of Cellular Phone Towers on Home Prices in Savannah, Georgia found that “homes close to towers sell for a discount of up to 7.6% and that any noticeable effect disappears at 1500 feet."
• According to AI: Studies show that properties within a certain distance of a cell tower can experience a decrease in value, with some studies showing declines of 2.4% to 9.7%. For example, a study found that properties within 0.72 kilometers of a cell tower declined by
2.46% on average, and up to 9.78% for homes within visual range of the tower.
THIS TOWER WILL BE IN VIEW 95% OF THE
TIME FROM OUR HOMES FROM DRIVEWAY TO
BACKYARD
This is where the
cell tower will be
NOT A GOOD
PLACE
• 180 feet from homes
• 30 feet from picnic area
• 60 feet from playground
• 25 feet from Black Rascal
Creek bank
• On a scenic route
THE TOWER SHOULD NOT BE IN OUR
PARK AT ALL...
• Having it here will ruin the characteristics of our neighborhood • There is a better location that satisfied both parties • Having it here will mean vehicles will be driving dangerously close to the playground, picnic area and on a heavily used bike path to build and service the tower • No commercial zones were evaluated
• It would make more sense to place it in the close by commercial areas
PLACES THAT WE THINK SHOULD HAVE
BEEN CONSIDERED THAT WERE NOT
PLACES THAT WERE USED TO PROVE
APPLICATION NO COMMERCIAL ZONES
EVALUATED.
THIS IS BLACK RASCAL CREEK BANK
PLEASE REMEMBER 2030 PLAN CHAPTER 7 OS-
1.2 A VIEW FROM THE
PLAYGROUND
• Do you want to picnic under a cell
tower?
• Do you want your child's playground
to sit in its shadow?
This is the
proposed
area
IF IT MUST BE IN
RAHILLY PARK WE
SUGGEST THE
SOUTH SIDE
• Has thicker trees
• Less public use
• No playgrounds
EASY VEHICLE ACCESS
• The Top is from Shamrock Ave
• The bottom from Parsons Ave
LET'S KEEP RAHILLY PARK IN ITS
NATURAL STATE THANK YOU
