FINDINGS OF FACT — SPECIAL EXCEPTION
JB TOWERS
tIEGEtVE
FEB 1
OGS
During the summer of 2012, Connie Murphy, the President of the Homeowners Association of
Keystone Woods, contacted JB Towers about the possibility of building a tower on the parcel
of land owned by the association's swim club. She had received our name as a possible contact
after an inquiry with the city.
We met with Connie and did internal due diligence on the actual need of additional coverage
and /or capacity at this location. Our search included a one mile, and two mile radius of this
location. We were able to determine that this area does need a communications tower. There
are some coverage holes that can be filled but mostly it is capacity issues that will be solved
with this proposed tower.
Our attached site plan was developed by taking into consideration maintaining the aesthetics of
the property and the residents of the surrounding area. We have located the wood fenced tower
compound in a grove of trees on the Woods Swim Club property. Within the wooded area we
chose a spot currently filled with dead trees and underbrush. Building the proposed tower in
this spot allows the large healthy trees to remain.
Locating the tower in the woods also blocks the view of the tower from the area residents and
from the people driving on Keystone Parkway. This location is the best way of making it a win -
win for the residents. They receive better cell usage and the tower is well hidden from the
normal line of site.
The access and utility easement placement allows us to not infringe upon utility easement with
the City of Carmel. There is small area that needs to be crossed to enter the compound.
The access and utility easement location is also allowing JB Towers to give Woods Swim Club
additional parking. This will aid in keeping the street clear during swim meets.
Section 21.3 items 1 -26
1. Topography: Our plan works with the existing topography to maintain the visual aesthetics
currently at the property.
2. Zoning on site: Special Exception is required.
3. Surrounding Zoning and Land Use: The surrounding zoning is also S -2. The residents of this
area are in agreement with this tower.
4.- 15. Do not apply to this project
16. Special and general Easements: We will have an access and utility easement to our site.
However, the line of access for service vehicles will be through the existing parking lot.
17. Landscaping and trees: As mentioned above we are placing the tower in a small wooded
area. We can also place some additional landscaping along the south property line of the parent
parcel.
18. Necessary screening and buffering: N/A
19. Necessary fencing: We will place an 8' wood fence around the base of the tower.
20. Necessary exterior lighting: This tower is less than 200' and won't be lit.

7) State explanation of requested Development Standards Variance. (State what you want to do and cite the
section num ber(s) of the Carmel /Clay Zoning Ordinance that applies and /or creates the need for this request)
We are requesting to build a 150' monopole. The 150' height is allowed in Business, Industrial, and Manufacturing
districts. The parcel we are requesting to locate the tower on is zoned S -2. However, it is currently used for a swimming
pool, tennis court and club house. The current use of this property compares directly to a business use instead of
residential. It is also important to note that the legal description is metes and bounds. The legal description is not a lot
in the Keystone Woods subdivision. Per Code 26.01 in the S -2 classifications the height max height is 120'.
8) State reasons supporting the Development Standards Variance: (Additionally, complete the attached question
sheet entitled "Findings of Fact - Development Standards Variance ") _
We are asking fora variance from this because....
1.) The tower will be located in a wooded area therefore providing coverage from eye sight for up to the height of the
trees. 2.) 1 he parcel is bordered by heavily traveled roadways on the south and west. It is bordered by a fire station on
the east and to the north the swim club building is between the closest houses. Also, the three property owners to the
•
North have signed the petition in support of the tower. 3.) The taller tower provides room for additional collocation.
This tower will be designed to hold all four wireless carriers that currently have licenses in the area plus have room for
additional uses like fire and safety, wireless Internet and 2 -way radio.
Please see attached pictures showing the visual difference of a 120' tower and a 150' tower.
9) Present zoning classification of the property: SS =2
10) Size of lot/parcel in question. 2.03 acres
11) Present use of the property: Association swimming pool and tennis court
12) Describe the proposed use of the property. The use will remain the same. We are proposing to add a tower on a
small 80' x 80' parcel away from the current uses.

RE: Proposed 150' Monopole at Carmel, IN
Dear Ms. Jones,
•
SabrE IndustriEsM
Towers and Poles
February 4, 2014
Upon receipt of order, we propose to design and supply the above referenced monopole for a Basic
Wind Speed of 90 mph with no ice and 40 mph with 1" radial ice, Structure Class II, Exposure
Category C, and Topographic Category 1, in accordance with the Telecommunications Industry
Association Standard ANSI/TIA- 222 -G, "Structural Standard for Antenna Supporting Structures and
Antennas ".
When designed according to this standard, the wind pressures and steel strength capacities include
several safety factors, resulting in an overall minimum safety factor of 25 %. Therefore, it is highly
unlikely that the monopole will fail structurally in a wind event where the design wind speed is
exceeded within the range of the built -in safety factors.
Should the wind speed increase beyond the capacity of the built -in safety factors, to the point of
failure of one or more structural elements, the most likely location of the failure would be within the
monopole shaft. Assuming that the wind pressure profile is similar to that used to design the
monopole, the monopole will buckle at the location of the highest combined stress ratio within the
monopole shaft. This is likely to result in the portion of the monopole above "folding over" onto the
portion below, essentially collapsing on itself. Please note that this letter only applies to the
above referenced monopole designed and manufactured by Sabre Towers & Poles. In the
unlikely event of total separation, this, in turn, would result in collapse of the section above, within a
radius of 100 feet. woo
Sincerely,
Robert E. Beacom, P.E.
Design Engineer II
