HomeMy WebLinkAboutEXTENSION LETTER - 09-00389 - Fuller Consulting (for AT&T) - CUP for Antenna on top of Multi-Family Bldg.j To whom it may concern: AT&T would like to have the opportunity to extend its right to use the temporary site at 120 W. 4`h South in order to continue to provide service to the campus and campus housing surrounding BYU-Idaho. Without a site in this area, the coverage inside buildings in the campus area will be greatly reduced. This will have a negative impact on the service currently expected and relied upon by AT&T users and those who roam on the AT&T network. This is not only an inconvenience for customers, but could also result in unreliable emergency communications. AT&T would like to avoid this disruption in service by continuing with the temporary site until a permanent solution can be found. We are working to find an alternative to this temporary location by relocating on the BYU-I campus as recommended and preferred by the planning staff and city attorney. We have been informed that a second option, in the way of a permanent, off -campus solution, would not be considered by the commission until all avenues with BYU-I had been exhausted. We are expecting a Request for Proposal/Pricing (RFP) to be released by BYU-I and will fully cooperate and reply as necessary to come to a reasonable agreement with the university. As AT&T's authorized representatives on the project, we spoke with Michael Thueson on November 6th and indicated our interest as well as followed up with the attached letter. We are extremely appreciative of the time allowed by this commission thus far to find permanent locations that best fit the needs of the citizens of Rexburg as well as existing and future AT&T customers. Unfortunately, the last 6 months has not been sufficient time to completely alleviate our coverage problems associated with losing the original BYU-I site. We pledge to continue working to find a mutually acceptable location for a site in this area and are happy to provide updates to the commission as necessary to ensure that you are satisfied and aware of our progress. Thanks for your consideration in this matter. Sincerely, Fuller Consulting, LLC 4835 N.
