1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Introduction The following is a Tower Feasibility Report prepared by Tectonic Engineering Consultants, Geologists

& Land Surveyors D.P.C. (Tectonic) for a new radio upgrade and installation for Ulster County for emergency services. The report includes a description and exhibit of the proposed site plan, an estimated cost breakdown of the civil components required to build out the proposed facility, and a matrix of the required approvals required to be obtained prior to construction.

Existing Property The tower facility is located at 118 Belleayre Ridge

Rd, Shandaken, NY 12406 (Tax ID 3-1-15). The current property is undeveloped woodland.

However, there is an existing 180 foot tall self-support tower owned by SBA.

Proposed Facility Since the tower is existing, Ulster County is proposing a new equipment shelter in a new

35’x18’ compound extension off the existing compound. Due to the slopes in the area, an elevated steel platform is proposed to support the shelter. A proposed diesel generator is proposed on a concrete slab on grade within the compound. This extension will be located towards the east of the existing compound. The utilities are existing and can be tapped into the existing meter bank on site.
