Fax: 561 - Director of Community Development County of Indian River 1940 25th Street Vero Beach, FL 32970 October 18, 1996 N Pow W"s" Dear Mr. Keating: Tlburoa, CA 94920 You have asked me to undertake the following tasks: • Prepare materials for, and conduct a workshop on, wireless communications in general and how Indian River County can plan for them in particular. • Meet with the Indian River County staff before and after the workshop. • Travel to Indian River County to undertake the above tasks as soon as possible. • Prior to traveling to Indian River County, briefly read the Comprehcrosive Flan, Zoning Ordinance and any recent carrier submittals in order to obtain a broad overview of these documents. I can be available within the next three weeks to undertake these tasks and to conduct the workshop on a mutually convenient date. Workshop Approach Kreines & Kreines, Inc. gives workshops in every part of the US. We try to tailor each workshop to the specific jurisdiction and audience involved. We view the workshop as an interactive learning opportunity. In Indian River County, the audience will be diverse and pointed in their questions and expectations. I welcome the wireless industry's presence at the workshop. Types of Topics to be Covered in Workshop The types of issues, options and questions usually discussed at workshops include. • b the height of personal wireless facilities the major concern? • Would ft County be wilting to mase the number of cell sites to bring the height of personal wireless facilities down? • Is co -location an issue? • Does Indian River County want to require co -location? • Can the County specify desired locations of ce11 sites to the industry? In my opinion, there can be affirmative answers to all of these questions. Workshop Format In a few hrnir workshop such as Indian River County's, there are three levels of participants. My remarks and responses are normally directed to the elected and appointed officials. Staff interjects and interprets as needed. The audience is usually in a listening mode, with questions taken from them (including industry representatives) at a prearranged time during the workshop. We can mutually adjust this format up to the time of -- and during -- the workshop. OCTOBER 22, 1996 23 BOOK 99
