OLD BUSINESS (PUBLIC SPEAKS): None
PUBLIC SPEAKS (CITY BUSINESS): John Alge announced that Grace United Church of Christ will be holding a prayer vigil
and blessing for first responders Sunday, July 17 th at 4:00 P.M. The address is 2300 Cleveland Ave N.W . He invited everyone
to attend and offer prayer, and thanks everyone for their fine work for the city. Pete DiGiacom o spoke about the purchase of
property for the salt dom e and to run a hike and bike trail through it. He feels it would be ridiculous for a bike trail, especially
for the price. He encouraged the city to find a better location at a lesser price. Also, the hike/bike trail where it com es down to
27 th Street and goes into that property he feels is a really bad plan. He advised Council not to do it. Frank Kem p spoke about
land that he shares with the city on the east side of his property. He’s been m owing this land for nine years. He attem pted to
contact the Street Departm ent, and after three weeks spoke to som eone who said they would put him on the list for m owing.
He spoke with the Street Departm ent today and they told him he wasn’t on the list, and they expected him to take care of it.
He feels it’s not his responsibility because it’s not his land. The Park wants access through it, but he says there is no right of
way. He would like to either have the land vacated or acquire it and pay the taxes. If not, he is asking that the city either m ow
the grass or give him a good excuse why not. Patricia Kirk, President of Downtown Central Neighborhood Association, spoke
about the future of the Kresge lot since they have taken care of the walls and landscaping by hiring local businesses. She still
sees the elderly and young enjoying it as a park. She rem inds the city that Canton has qualified for two years in a row as a
Tree City. She announced that the Association has m eetings every second Tuesday of the m onth at the Engineering Office
that are open to the public. Malone College is also looking into becom ing a tree cam pus. Mark Turkeltaub spoke in opposition
to the cell tower. He is concerned about the flooding issue on North Market which he fears will be exacerbated by the
construction of the cell phone tower on First Friends Church property. He lives directly across the street from where the tower
will be built. He is certain that if we get a torrential rainstorm it will flood across Market Avenue and enter their living area.
Close to $80,000.00 has been spent in repairs and restorations for new drainage. He is asking Council to do everything
possible to prevent construction of the tower, as well as to address the drainage situation on North Market. Pat Varn spoke in
opposition to the cell tower. She has lived in Montabella since Septem ber of 2008. She circulated pictures of her hom e to the
Council Mem bers. She stated that when she looks out her front door the view is beautiful. According to HG TV, the view is the
m ost im portant aspect of purchasing or selling a hom e. Another study indicated that cell towers would negatively im pact
surrounding hom es. She m entioned seven cell tower sites that she photographed. None of these were constructed near a
youth sports facility or preserved wet lands. She circulated photographs of cell towers that affect the view of the hom es in the
area. As President of Montabella Estates Hom eowner Association, a registered vote and taxpayer, and a Montabella resident,
she encouraged Council to deny the easem ent to Towerco. She suggested that Verizon provide service utilizing the tower at
55 th and Market Avenue which is already utilized by AT&T. Ray Haas spoke in opposition to the cell tower. He is part of the
hom eowners association, and they feel that the cell tower will have a negative affect for the over 100 residents of Montabella.
Mitchell W agner spoke in opposition to the cell tower. He and his fam ily have lived in their hom e since a year ago January.
One of the selling points of the hom e was the beautiful view of the back yard and adjoining wetlands. He and his fam ily sit on
their deck often enjoying the view and the wildlife. He served in the Arm y as a com m ander, and while overseas one of his
dream s was to purchase a hom e in a nice neighborhood with a good back yard. Building the cell phone tower will tarnish what
he calls the Am erican dream , decrease the value of his hom e, and possibly create unknown health risks. In addition, the tower
could collapse causing m uch dam age. He and his fam ily have Verizon service and experience no problem s. He feels he m ust
fight for his Am erican dream . Mary Ann Gordon spoke in opposition to the cell tower. Her hom e was built eleven years ago in
Montabella. She and her husband are very proud of where they live. They have planted 13 trees, and built a deck and a
screened in porch on the back. They sit on their back porch, watch TV and enjoy the beautiful view, but if a cell tower is built, it
won’t be pretty anym ore. She gave som e exam ples of the types of people that live in their neighborhood, including police
officers, fire personnel, teachers, professors, and m edical personnel. She feels it is very im portant to keep the neighborhood
as it is because they love their country, they love their city, but they will not love a cell tower that will obstruct their view.
Joshua Guilliam s spoke in opposition to the cell tower. His house butts up against the wetlands. He’s been a resident of
Montabella for thirteen years since he built his hom e. Studies have been done in Europe showing that a m ajor cause of
cancer is from living within the first 1300 feet of the tower. The residents have built a tree house for the kids in the wetlands,
but the cell tower will butt right next to this area where children play. W ith regard to the flooding, he stated that the city
engineer presented all the issues regarding the flooding at the North Canton m eeting. First Friends does not want this deal,
but Towerco is forcing their hand, as well as North Canton. He feels if North Canton wants it, it should be on their land. He
stated that he will leave Montabella if this is approved. He strongly encouraged Council not to approve the tower, and to stand
up to big business. Brandon Blood spoke in opposition to the cell tower. He is a doctor who resides in Montabella. He
m entioned a study that was done in Germ any that says if som eone lives within a 400 m eter span of a cell phone tower, the
cancer risks increase by 300 tim es. For those reasons he is against the cell tower. Dustin Hennessy spoke in opposition to
the cell tower. He has lived in the neighborhood for about eleven years. He and his wife were one of the first fam ilies to build
in that area. His concerns are about property value. In June 2014 the National Institute for Science, Law and Public Policy
conducted a survey which showed that 94% of residents reported that cell towers would negatively affect their decision to
m ove into that neighborhood. He is concerned about the vacant homes which are on the m arket far too long. He asked that
Council consider property value, and those residents who decide to m ove out m ay not be able to sell their hom es very quickly.
Deborah W atters spoke in opposition to the cell tower. Her m ain concern is for the health of her son, daughter and
grandchildren. Her second concern is property value for her hom e and her daughter’s hom e. She is opposed to the cell tower
for all reasons given, but especially because of health concerns and property value. Asif Iqbal spoke in opposition to the cell
tower. Along with the health issues and decreased property values, he feels that the m ajor argum ent is between life versus
com m erce. He asked, is com m erce m ore im portant than life? He also asked what is life without good health? And what is life
without the liberty to be able to own a piece of property that does not depreciate for m an m ade reasons? He is a Verizon
CANTON CITY COUNCIL AGENDA - PAGE 2 - JULY 11, 2016
custom er with no service interruptions at all. To com e to a decision, the questions he posed m ust be answered. Jim Mathews
spoke in support of the cell tower. He is an attorney with Baker, Dublikar who represents the applicants, Towerco. He feels
that m any of the issues of concern from those in opposition are m atters that have already been aired before North Canton
officials. He stated that the location of the tower is actually within the jurisdiction of North Canton, so the perm it process went
before the North Canton Planning Com m ission and Zoning Board of Appeals. There was an appeal by the hom eowners
association to the Zoning Board of Appeals challenging the perm it. The issues such as health concerns and property value
concerns are not justifiable because those issues are pre-em pted under the Federal Telecom m unications Act. His client has a
lawfully issued perm it and plans to proceed as soon as possible with the tower project. They are seeking an easem ent across
a sliver of property that Canton owns that extends on the west side of Market. It’s property that’s held only for highway
purposes. This would be a twenty foot easem ent for utility installation only. There will be no disturbance of the surface. The
underground utilities will be installed through a boring procedure. As far as the drainage issue, he feels those concerns need
to be addressed in som e other fashion and have no bearing on the tower project. Mr. Mathews exam ined Mr. Barnes, the
Canton city engineer who appeared at the North Canton hearing, and he testified that he m ade no calculation of any problem
that would be encountered with the installation of the tower as far as run off or drainage concerns to the south. He said that
Mr. Barnes also indicated he had no concerns about the developm ent of the cell tower. Canton city engineers and his client’s
representatives have com m unicated to place this easem ent in a reasonable location that would not interfere with any possible
detention basin expansion in the south. He stated that per statutory law the general overlying or underlying public policy
expressed by the General Assem bly is to expand access to utilities and econom ic developm ent by allowing utility easem ents
within public right of ways. State law is clear that a m unicipal corporation shall provide public utilities or cable operators with
open, com parable, and com petitively neutral access to its public ways. He feels the law very clearly allows his client this
access.

M ISCELLANEOUS BUSINESS: Mem ber Sm ith com m ented on the prior Council m eeting, and the decision on how to suspend
Council rules. She does not feel it should be decided once the m eeting begins. She feels it should be decided previously so
that the audience and the Council Mem bers will know what is going on. She wanted to clarify that for the Council Mem bers
who said that the m eeting was m essed up because of her. She feels the rules should be suspended just as Mem ber Morris
did this evening. President Schulm an added that while his job looks easy, it is not that easy. He said he has a great staff, but
things m ove quickly and you’re trying to follow the rules, and m any tim es it’s difficult. He appreciates everything Mem ber
Sm ith is saying. Mem ber Fisher told Mem ber Sm ith she did a great job last m eeting. Mem ber Morris thanked Mem ber Sm ith
for covering for them .
