II.Summary
Upon completion,these upgrades will provide an improved 4G/5G coverage layer alongtheapproximately2-mile stretch of Union Avenue between Saratoga Race Course and Gilbert Rd.
In addition to Union Avenue,significant coverage reliability and network performance
improvements will extend across the I-87 Exit 14 interchange,vehicles traveling 1-87 near Exit 14,
0.4±miles along Gilbert Rd,and the homes along Gilbert Rd and Piping Rock Circle,as shownontheproposedcoveragemap.[Proposed Coverage Map at TAB 3].
Verizon Wireless is considered a public utility for land use purposes under New York
decisional law (Cellular Telephone Company v.Rosen.berg1,82 N.Y.2d 364 [1993]),and a provider of"personal wireless services"under the federal Telecommunication s Act of 1996 (the "TCA").Verizon Wireless'equipment will be in operation twenty-four (24)hours a day,seven (7)days aweek,three hundred sixty-five (365)days a year.
I In Rosenberg,the State's highest Court determined that the ordinary variance standard is inapplicable and a cellular
telephone company applying for relief need only show that (1)the relief is "required to render safe and adequateservice,"and (2)there are "compelling reasons,economic or otherwise,"for needing the variance.Cellular TelephoneCompanyv.Rosenberg,82 N.Y.2d 364,372 (1993).
Verizon Wireless is applying for review by the Design Review Board.2 The subject utility
poles are located in the Rural Residential (RR),Institutional Horse Track Related (INST-HTR),
and Institutional Educational (INST-ED)Zoning Districts.Additionally,the Union St,utility
poles are located in the Architectural Review District.Nodes #1,#2,#3,and #4 are located in the
Historic District.
The proposed communications facilities are unmanned and will be visited for routine
maintenance purposes approximately two times per year (only as needed).As such,the project
will not have any impact on existing water and sewage services.In addition,neither pedestrian
nor vehicular access to the premises will be impacted [see Zoning Drawings at TAB 6].
III.Compliance with City Requirements
The proposed communications facilities comply in all material respects with City
requirements:
1.SEQRA:A Short Environmental Assessment Form is attached as TAB 2.
2.Minimum Visual Impact:As noted above,Verizon Wireless'proposed facilities
are designed to have a minimum possible visual effect on the surrounding
community and neighborhood [TAB 4].
3.Site Plan:The Applicant has provided.Zoning Drawings that identify the
proposed improvements [TAB 6].
Based upon the foregoing,Verizon Wireless respectfully submits that approval is
appropriate in this case.
IV.Conclusion
The communications facilities proposed are public necessities under Rosenberg in that they
are required to render and improve adequate and safe service to this area of the City of Saratoga
Springs.In an effort to improve existing telecommunications services to this area of the City,
Verizon Wireless seeks approval to upgrade these facilities.
The facilities will not be noticeable to the traveling public or nearby property owners.The
communications system proposed has been sited to have the least practical adverse visual effect
on the environment,and any resulting impact(s)may properly be considered minimal in nature
and scope.
Attached to this Application and Statement of Intent are the following:
1)An Application for Architectural/Historic Review by the Design Review Board and copyofpriordecision;
2 For the reasons set forth herein,Verizon Wireless believes that its project complies in all material respects with theprovisionsoftheCityofSaratogaSpringsLandUseLawsand,consistent with the application process established bytheCityforpriorSmallCellapplications,that no additional approvals or relief are required.To the extent that anadditionalapprovalorreliefisrequired,Verizon Wireless submits these materials in support of such approval(s).

1. Executive Summary
Verizon Wireless has contracted with Circet USA, an independent Radio Frequency consulting firm, to determine
if the proposed telecommunications facility is in compliance with Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
rules and regulations regarding RF exposure as defined in 47 CFR § 1.1307(b) and 1.1310. This document and the
conclusions herein are based on the information provided by representatives of Verizon Wireless which is assumed
to be true and correct.
All information used in this report was analyzed to determine compliance in publicly accessible areas, in particular
at ground level. The analysis evaluates the telecommunications facility with respect to the General
Population/Uncontrolled Maximum Permissible Exposure (MPE) limits. Circet USA has taken into consideration
the Verizon Wireless antenna system as well as any existing antenna systems at the subject location.
Verizon Wireless final antenna count is (3) antenna.
Based on the analysis, Circet USA has determined that:
Verizon Wireless is compliant in all publicly accessible areas with the FCC rules and regulations governing human
exposure to RF electromagnetic fields as described in 47 CFR § 1.1307(b) and 1.1310.
With the proposed Verizon Wireless antenna configuration in service, the composite exposure from this facility in
all areas at ground level will be less than 1% of the General Population MPE limit, or over 100 times less than the
maximum allowed exposure in publicly accessible areas.

3. Analysis
Circet USA has included the Verizon Wireless antenna system at the subject location in the
analysis. All existing and proposed antennas are listed in the antenna table above. Engineering
assumptions were used when specific antenna or operating parameter information was not
available for the other existing collocated antennas (if applicable).
Using this data, software modeling using IXUS software was performed for all transmitting
antennas located at the site. Circet USA has assumed a 100% duty cycle and maximum radiated
power. The site has been modeled with these assumptions to determine the maximum potential
RF energy density at ground level. Circet USA believesthistobeaworst‐caseanalysisbased
on the best available data.
As stated previously, based on this analysis, the calculated ground level exposure from the
Verizon Wireless antenna system alone is less than 1% of the General Population MPE limit.
Keep in mind that the FCC did not arbitrarily establish their own standards but rather adopted
the recommendations of national and international organizations such as the National Council
on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP), the American National Standards Institute
(ANSI) and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). These
recommendations were developed by expert scientists and engineers following extensive
evaluation of the potential biological effects from RF exposure. The FCC MPE limits are based
on thresholds for known adverse effects, and they were designed to provide a substantial
margin of safety. There is a safety factor of 50 built into the General Public MPE limits, and the
predicted Verizon Wireless exposure levels are over 100 times below these very conservative
limits.
In cases where such compliance exists, the subject of electromagnetic field safety is preempted
by the Telecommunications Act of 1996, which states: “No state or local government or
instrumentality thereof may regulate the placement, construction, and modification of personal
wireless service facilities on the basis of the environmental effects of radio frequency emissions
to the extent that such facilities comply with the (Federal Communication) Commission’s
regulations concerning such emissions.”
The graph below provides a visual depiction of the rather insignificant electromagnetic field
exposure contribution from the Verizon Wireless antenna system out to a distance of 500’ from
the base of the structure. This portrays how low the Verizon Wireless contribution is when
compared to the General Population MPE limit.

FCC Rules & Regulations
All information used in this report was analyzed as a percentage of the MPE limits as detailed in 47 CFR §
1.1310. The calculated power density at each sample point divided by the limit at each calculated frequency
provides a result in % MPE. Summing the calculated % MPE from all contributors provides accumulative
% MPE at a particular sample point. Wireless carriers use different frequency bands with varying MPE
limits; therefore, it is useful to report results in terms of % MPE as opposed to power density.
All results were compared to the FCC radio frequency exposure rules as detailed in 47 CFR § 1.1307(b) to
determine compliance with the MPE limits for General Population/Uncontrolled environments as defined
below:
Two Classifications for Exposure Limits
Occupational – Applies to situations in which persons
are “exposed as a consequence of their employment”
and are “fully aware of the potential for exposure and
can exercise control over their exposure”.
General Population – Applies to situations in which
persons are “exposed as a consequence of their
employment may not be made fully aware of the potential
for exposure or cannot exercise control over their
exposure”. Generally speaking, those without significant
and documented RF Safety & Awareness training would
be in the General Population classification.
Environment Classification
Controlled – Applies to environments that are restricted
or “controlled” in order to prevent access from members
of the General Population classification.
Uncontrolled – Applies to environments that are
unrestricted or “uncontrolled” that allow access from
members of the General Population classification.

3. Analysis
Circet USA has included the Verizon Wireless antenna system at the subject location in the
analysis. All existing and proposed antennas are listed in the antenna table above. Engineering
assumptions were used when specific antenna or operating parameter information was not
available for the other existing collocated antennas (if applicable).
Using this data, software modeling using IXUS software was performed for all transmitting
antennas located at the site. Circet USA has assumed a 100% duty cycle and maximum radiated
power. The site has been modeled with these assumptions to determine the maximum potential
RF energy density at ground level. Circet USA believesthistobeaworst‐caseanalysisbased
on the best available data.
As stated previously, based on this analysis, the calculated ground level exposure from the
Verizon Wireless antenna system alone is less than 1% of the General Population MPE limit.
Keep in mind that the FCC did not arbitrarily establish their own standards but rather adopted
the recommendations of national and international organizations such as the National Council
on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP), the American National Standards Institute
(ANSI) and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). These
recommendations were developed by expert scientists and engineers following extensive
evaluation of the potential biological effects from RF exposure. The FCC MPE limits are based
on thresholds for known adverse effects, and they were designed to provide a substantial
margin of safety. There is a safety factor of 50 built into the General Public MPE limits, and the
predicted Verizon Wireless exposure levels are over 100 times below these very conservative
limits.
In cases where such compliance exists, the subject of electromagnetic field safety is preempted
by the Telecommunications Act of 1996, which states: “No state or local government or
instrumentality thereof may regulate the placement, construction, and modification of personal
wireless service facilities on the basis of the environmental effects of radio frequency emissions
to the extent that such facilities comply with the (Federal Communication) Commission’s
regulations concerning such emissions.”
The graph below provides a visual depiction of the rather insignificant electromagnetic field
exposure contribution from the Verizon Wireless antenna system out to a distance of 500’ from
the base of the structure. This portrays how low the Verizon Wireless contribution is when
compared to the General Population MPE limit.

FCC Rules & Regulations
All information used in this report was analyzed as a percentage of the MPE limits as detailed in 47 CFR §
1.1310. The calculated power density at each sample point divided by the limit at each calculated frequency
provides a result in % MPE. Summing the calculated % MPE from all contributors provides accumulative
% MPE at a particular sample point. Wireless carriers use different frequency bands with varying MPE
limits; therefore, it is useful to report results in terms of % MPE as opposed to power density.
All results were compared to the FCC radio frequency exposure rules as detailed in 47 CFR § 1.1307(b) to
determine compliance with the MPE limits for General Population/Uncontrolled environments as defined
below:
Two Classifications for Exposure Limits
Occupational – Applies to situations in which persons
are “exposed as a consequence of their employment”
and are “fully aware of the potential for exposure and
can exercise control over their exposure”.
General Population – Applies to situations in which
persons are “exposed as a consequence of their
employment may not be made fully aware of the potential
for exposure or cannot exercise control over their
exposure”. Generally speaking, those without significant
and documented RF Safety & Awareness training would
be in the General Population classification.
Environment Classification
Controlled – Applies to environments that are restricted
or “controlled” in order to prevent access from members
of the General Population classification.
Uncontrolled – Applies to environments that are
unrestricted or “uncontrolled” that allow access from
members of the General Population classification.

3. Analysis
Circet USA has included the Verizon Wireless antenna system at the subject location in the
analysis. All existing and proposed antennas are listed in the antenna table above. Engineering
assumptions were used when specific antenna or operating parameter information was not
available for the other existing collocated antennas (if applicable).
Using this data, software modeling using IXUS software was performed for all transmitting
antennas located at the site. Circet USA has assumed a 100% duty cycle and maximum radiated
power. The site has been modeled with these assumptions to determine the maximum potential
RF energy density at ground level. Circet USA believesthistobeaworst‐caseanalysisbased
on the best available data.
As stated previously, based on this analysis, the calculated ground level exposure from the
Verizon Wireless antenna system alone is less than 1% of the General Population MPE limit.
Keep in mind that the FCC did not arbitrarily establish their own standards but rather adopted
the recommendations of national and international organizations such as the National Council
on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP), the American National Standards Institute
(ANSI) and the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). These
recommendations were developed by expert scientists and engineers following extensive
evaluation of the potential biological effects from RF exposure. The FCC MPE limits are based
on thresholds for known adverse effects, and they were designed to provide a substantial
margin of safety. There is a safety factor of 50 built into the General Public MPE limits, and the
predicted Verizon Wireless exposure levels are over 100 times below these very conservative
limits.
In cases where such compliance exists, the subject of electromagnetic field safety is preempted
by the Telecommunications Act of 1996, which states: “No state or local government or
instrumentality thereof may regulate the placement, construction, and modification of personal
wireless service facilities on the basis of the environmental effects of radio frequency emissions
to the extent that such facilities comply with the (Federal Communication) Commission’s
regulations concerning such emissions.”
The graph below provides a visual depiction of the rather insignificant electromagnetic field
exposure contribution from the Verizon Wireless antenna system out to a distance of 500’ from
the base of the structure. This portrays how low the Verizon Wireless contribution is when
compared to the General Population MPE limit.

4. Appendix A: Reference Information
FCC Rules & Regulations
All information used in this report was analyzed as a percentage of the MPE limits as detailed in 47 CFR §
1.1310. The calculated power density at each sample point divided by the limit at each calculated frequency
provides a result in % MPE. Summing the calculated % MPE from all contributors provides accumulative
% MPE at a particular sample point. Wireless carriers use different frequency bands with varying MPE
limits; therefore, it is useful to report results in terms of % MPE as opposed to power density.
All results were compared to the FCC radio frequency exposure rules as detailed in 47 CFR § 1.1307(b) to
determine compliance with the MPE limits for General Population/Uncontrolled environments as defined
below:
Two Classifications for Exposure Limits
Occupational – Applies to situations in which persons
are “exposed as a consequence of their employment”
and are “fully aware of the potential for exposure and
can exercise control over their exposure”.
General Population – Applies to situations in which
persons are “exposed as a consequence of their
employment may not be made fully aware of the potential
for exposure or cannot exercise control over their
exposure”. Generally speaking, those without significant
and documented RF Safety & Awareness training would
be in the General Population classification.
Environment Classification
Controlled – Applies to environments that are restricted
or “controlled” in order to prevent access from members
of the General Population classification.
Uncontrolled – Applies to environments that are
unrestricted or “uncontrolled” that allow access from
members of the General Population classification.
