Planning and Development Department City of Eugene <br />To Whom It May Concern: <br />I am a resident of South Eugene requesting denial of the proposal by AT&T to erect a monopine cell <br />tower at 4060 West Amazon Drive. I have examined the site, related photos and the illustration <br />provided by AT&T in their application materials. <br />I live at 5210 Canyon Drive which is also connected to the Amazon Creek system. I drive to work <br />everyday past the proposed site and walk the trail past it four time a week. <br />I also regularly drop off stuff at the dump and am visually assaulted by the cell tower/fake tree which <br />stands by the driveway. Even in the gritty context of the dump, it is truly creepy . It is hard to imagine <br />such a large, permanent and disturbing structure being permitted in such a public way in the Amazon <br />corridor. <br />I wholeheartedly support the efforts of the Neighborhood group in opposing this proposal, and so I attach <br />my comments to their form letter. <br />In reference to EC 9.9630 (3)(e) South Hills Study Policies: I believe the proposed cell tower in the form <br />of an 80 foot tall monopine would not blend with, but rather would denigrate and dominate over, the <br />aesthetically pleasing natural scenery of this residential area. <br />In reference to Metro Plan EA: I believe a monopine tower at this site would degrade, rather than preserve <br />and enhance, the best qualities and unique environmental character of the neighborhood and Amazon <br />Creek corridor area, and the sense of identity with the area for those of us who truly enjoy those features. <br />In reference to EC 9.8090 (1) and (2)(a) and (b): I believe a tower at this site would not be reasonably <br />compatible with this neighborhood, as it would cause substantial off-site impacts. There could be no <br />adequate screening by standing trees shielding it from view from Amazon Creek or the Rexius Trails or <br />our cherished Kincaid City Park just across the creek. Its negative visual impact could not be mitigated. <br />I urge City staff to recommend denial, and the Hearings Official to deny, the AT&T Conditional <br />Use Permit application 14-003 at 4060 West Amazon, Calvary Fellowship Church (a.k.a. Crossfire <br />World Outreach Ministries). <br />Signature s) Date : <br />,C,.440 ) C <br />.11 9te- Printed names 1 n <br />l ~ <br />Street address (with zip) Email(s) <br />S-2-t0 OW 10 rJ ID rz- I L(O <br />tlr.c55a-L4` 8Jw\.aLL .
