BOA Meeting April 28, 2011 6 <br />No one spoke in favor of the petition. <br /> <br /> <br />Fred Donovan of Unit 222, David Walko of Unit 460 and Sarah Springer of Unit 116 spoke in <br />opposition to the petition. <br /> <br />The tenants of Muzzy Condominiums are asking the Board to defer the decision until they can <br />meet with AT&T next month at their annual meeting. They had many concerns with the cell <br />tower facility. <br /> <br />Mr. Walko presented a letter to the Board from his heart doctor, Dr. Manfred Ernesti, outlining <br />his concern with episodes of Atrial Fibrillation Mr. Walko has been experiencing that may be <br />related to the wave frequency emitted by this antenna that is 40 feet from the apartment where <br />Mr. Walko lives. Dr. Ernesti feels where as they cannot establish a relationship between the <br />waves frequency he is exposed to and his recurrent episodes; they cannot exclude them either. <br /> <br />Attorney Pare responded to the abutters concerns by saying this was a long standing business <br />deal with the Condo trust. <br /> <br />Kevin Brewer the Radio Frequency Engineer with AT&T spoke to the Board regarding the <br />frequency standards. <br /> <br />A Board member asked if Sarah Springer was speaking as a Board member or as a resident. <br />She was speaking on behalf of herself. <br /> <br />A Board member suggested the Board postpone closing the hearing until after the Association’s <br />annual meeting. He was not comfortable that AT&T had not notified the abutters themselves <br />of the installation. <br /> <br />Attorney Pare told the Board that he would commit to AT&T meeting with neighbors and <br />requested a waiver on the 30 day abutter notice. <br /> <br />On a motion by Carolyn C. Wilson and seconded by John J. McWeeney, the Board voted 0-5 to <br />waive AT&T’s 30 day notice to the neighbors. The Board opposed the waiver. <br /> <br />On a motion by Carolyn C. Wilson and seconded by John J. McWeeney, the Board voted 5-0 to <br />continue the hearing until Thursday, May 26, 2011 at 7:30 pm with the understanding that <br />AT&T will attend the Association’s general meeting on May 19, 2011 to discuss their plans <br />and that they will send a notice letter to the abutters. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Dianne Cornaro, Administrative Clerk <br /> Submitted by: <br /> <br /> <br />
