Dear City Clerk of Newport Beach:
Ci r.. r ..
• S1- .�HI✓II
I am writing on behalf of myself and my neighbors protesting the
installation of a faux 62 foot eucalyptus tree for a cell phone
tower. This location, 2401 Irvine Avenue, is a church on a corner
surrounded by all homes on three sides of the property. There
already exists a faux giant cross with cell towers inside.
I am including the information regarding the dangers of these
towers. We are already inundated with EMF's from Smart Meters
(installed without our permission), computers, wifi, cell phones,
microwaves, etc. The government and phone companies insist
there is no danger. Not true .............
PLEASE DON'T LET THIS HAPPEN
o A study by Dr. Bruce Hocking in Australia found that children
living near three TV and FM broadcast towers (similar to cell
towers) in Sydney had more than twice the rate of leukemia
than children living more than seven miles away.
Says Dr. Neil Cherry, a biophysicist at Lincoln University in New
Zealand:
"Public health surveys of people living in the vicinity of cell
site base stations should be being carried out now,
and continue progressively over the next two decades.
This is because prompt effects such as miscarriage,
cardiac disruption, sleep disturbance and chronic
fatigue could well be early indicators of the adverse
health effects. Symptoms of reduced immune system
competence, cardiac problems, especially of the
arrhythmic type, and cancers, especially brain tumor
and leukemia, are probable."
e Biomedical engineer Mariana Alves- Pereira says exposure to cell
phone towers can lead to vibroacoustic disease. "From what
I understand, some of the complaints are similar in what is
seen in vibroacoustic disease patients, which are people
who develop a disease caused by low frequency noise
exposure," she said. Symptoms can include mood swings,
indigestion, ulcers and joint pain.
® Dr. Gerard Hyland, a physicist who was nominated twice for the
Nobel Prize in medicine, says, "Existing safety guidelines for
cell phone towers are completely inadequate ... Quite
justifiably, the public remains skeptical of attempts by
governments and industry to reassure them that all is well,
particularly given the unethical way in which they often
operate symbiotically so as to promote their own vested
interests."
According to the Mount Shasta Bioregional Ecology Center,
"Studies have shown that even at low levels of this
radiation, there is evidence of damage to cell tissue and
DNA, and it has been linked to brain tumors, cancer,
suppressed immune function, depression, miscarriage,
Alzheimer's disease, and numerous other serious illnesses."
According to Dr. W. Loscher of the Institute of Pharmacology,
Toxicology and Pharmacy of the Veterinary School of
Hannover in Germany, dairy cows that were kept in close
proximity to a TV and cell phone tower for two years had a
reduction in milk production along with increased health
problems and behavioral abnormalities. In an experiment,
one cow with abnormal behavior was taken away from the
antenna and the behavior subsided within five days. When
the cow was brought back near the antenna, the symptoms
returned.

This letter is to confirm AT &T's possible interest in co- locating its antemia and associated equipment on
the proposed Mobilitie wireless telecommunication facility located at 2401 Irvine Avenue, Newport
Beach, CA 92660. It is our understanding the proposed facility will consist of a stealth tower design on
the existing property where AT &T's existing fagade- mounted wireless facility is located.
The proposed Mobilitie site should provide a considerable increase in line of site compared to AT &T's
existing facility on the property. The additional height should provide a significant improvement in
wireless coverage to this area of Newport Beach. Over the past few years AT &T has been unsuccessful
in developing additional sites to address the coverage and capacity issues. The existing Newport Beach
wireless ordinance and lack of suitable locations makes it extremely difficult to construct wireless
facilities in this residential area.
We fully support Mobilitie's efforts to develop a new facility on this property that maximizes height and
the ability for additional carriers to co- locate.

RE: Case No. TP2030.073 (Mobilitie / Verizon Wireless)
Harbor Christian Church, 2401 Irvine Avenue, Newport Beach, CA 92660
Dear Ms. Nueno,
On behalf of Harbor Christian Church, our Board of Trustees requests that the City Council for the City of
Newport Beach review and approve Case No. TP2010.073 for a multi- carrier wireless facility to be
installed by Mobilitie LLC at the Harbor Christian Church site. We support the proposed wireless
communication facility as it is currently designed and sited.
We believe the proposed faux eucalyptus is an appropriate design for the church property. We also feel
it will blend well with the numerous existing eucalyptus trees on the site. Additionally, the construction
of the faux eucalyptus will provide a better facility to which several of the existing wireless carriers
possibly would want to relocate. This would allow them to remove their existing antennas and cabling
from the exterior of the church building. By moving those items it would greatly improve the
appearance of the church facility and eliminate maintenance issues for the church.
Harbor Christian Church supports the installation of Verizon Wireless onto the proposed faux eucalyptus
and the relocation of other wireless carriers to the faux tree. We believe the improved wireless facility
will greatly enhance the 4G /LTE voice, data and internet services for the area of coverage which is
predominately residential in nature and thus typically lacking in adequate sites such as ours for cellular
infrastructure. Additionally, improvements in 911 services would be of significant benefit to the
neighborhood and the residents of Newport Beach.
Thank you for your time and consideration of this wireless project. We strongly believe it is in the best
interest of the City of Newport Beach, Harbor Christian Church and the residents of the area to approve
this proposal.
Respectfully,
co
