Community Concerns(HOA Meeting 5/20)
Radiofrequency Safety RF emanates horizontally from antennas; measured radiation on ground level is 0.1% of FCC limit; equivalent to wireless router, lower than cell phones. Referred to WHO, American Cancer Society reports.
Impact on Home Values 2010 analysis by Thorne Consultants found no negative impact on home values resulting from monopole views.
Alternative Sites Considered
Alternative Location on School Property
Mitigation of Visual Impact

What is Wireless?
Radio Frequency (RF) Energy Used to Exchange Information Similar to Radio and Television: Higher in Frequency but
Lower in Power
Broadcast Radius of Wireless is Much Smaller Has Been Commercially Used Around Communities for
Almost 100 Years
Frequency Power
FM Radio ~100 MHz Up to 50,000 W
TV 50-700 MHz Up to 1 Million W+
Wireless 850-2100 MHz 500-1,000 W
![Page 37: 1 Proposed Wireless Infrastructure at Carson Middle School May 25, 2010 COMMUNITY MEETING.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022081602/5514cccf55034640138b5e66/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

Wireless Base Station send most of their energy toward the horizon Jan 2005: FCPS tested 7 existing tower locations + 7 random
locations. Results = all sites tested at <0.1% of FCC limit Dec 2009: 2005 Study replicated by Site Safe, RF consulting group.
Results confirm safety of 2005 data The maximum levels measured from cell towers are similar to the
exposure close to a wireless home WiFi access point
