From: Nebel, Colleen [mailto:NebelC@bv.com] Sent: Wednesday, November 22, 2017 10:42 AM To: Bill Gavette Subject: Verizon Wireless - Carbondale & Rural Fire Protection District  

Hello Mr. Gavette; I’m a real estate consultant for Verizon Wireless (VZW). I’m scouting sites for a new LTE wireless facility. Verizon Wireless is looking to improve network coverage along Hwy 82, between Glenwood and Carbondale. You might have noticed a stretch of Hwy where calls drop. I’d like to talk to you about a potential location I’ve identified. The parcel of interest is Garfield County PIN: 239319201070. I’ve attached a Garfield County GIS map for your reference. If you think the Carbondale & Rural Fire Protection District would be interested in pursuing a lease agreement with Verizon Wireless, I’d like to set up a site visit to discuss the proposal. Thank you and have a wonderful Thanksgiving! Colleen Colleen Nebel | Lead Site Acquisition Specialist - Land Services & Acquisition Group, Telecommunications Black & Veatch Corp. 4600 South Syracuse Street, 3rd Floor, Denver, CO 80237 +1 303-256-4079 P | NebelC@BV.com  

To improve service along Hwy82, Verizon Wireless is proposing to install a new wireless facility. The facility would include up to 12 panel antennas mounted to a mono-pine (see pictures attached). A mono-pine is described as a pole designed to mimic a pine tree. The proposed mono-pine would need to be 40-50’ tall, with 5’ of faux branches installed above the antennas. A small lease space of approximately 200 sq. ft. is required to house related equipment cabinets. I’ve attached a picture of an existing mono-pine site, to give you a better idea of the proposed installation
