Eastern Daylight Time From: cmisch @northamptonma.gov_ To: rs ien kiewicz(a�northamptonma.gov, apatillo(a,northamptonmagov CC: rsienkAaol.com, mnazzaro@northamptonmgov, jkoncasAnorthamptonma.gov, dcallahan@northamptonma.gov Russ /Tony I think that there would be no further review by the Planning Board for the application to put the PD's equipment on Atwood Drive tower. See the attached site plan approved by Planning Board in 2000 where the city's equipment was part of the approval. It is also described in the text of that application as well. So the next step would be to submit the zoning permit application to Tony (download from Bldg website) and submit with the attachments you emailed. Tony can review /document it and it can go forward with building permit review. - Carolyn From: Russell Sienkiewicz Sent: Friday, August 21, 2009 3:12 PM To: Carolyn Misch Cc: Russ Sienkiewicz (rsienk @aol.com); Melissa Nazzaro; Joseph Koncas; David Callahan Subject: Atwood Dr Tower Carolyn - At long last we are close to an agreement with Crown Castle. Attached are the items you said you needed to review and advise me on the zoning application requirements. - Tower diagram and antenna location for NPD - Site plan - Shelter drawings - Further technical info in the Crown Agreement I do have the final draft amendment of the amended lease and can provide that once Atty Reall reviews it next week. Please advise if these are the items you need for my application to the board. Thanks.
