"OPERATOR" jim croce
Operator, could you help me place this call
Well I can't read the number
Last night was the city Planning Commission Meeting. The main reason for wanting to attend was the item about placing three 75 foot telephone poles in the northend of Painesville.
The (3) poles location would be on the tree lawn near 607 Williams St. near 225 E. Prospect and near 701 East Erie St.
Robert Knoph of Mobilitie is asking for a Conditional Use Permit. The applicant is proposing to install 75-foot public utility poles for broadband infrastructure purposes within the right-of-way at these three locations. All properties are located in R1 Single Family Residential District. Section 1143.06 requires a conditional use permit for the installation of commercial transmission of radio, television or communication systems in all districts.
Now Mobilitie called the city to table this until next month?
I looked Mobilitie up on the internet and that seem to do communication work for Sprint. They have somewhat of a checker past with other municipalities. I have no clue what the purpose here is it's strange only three locations in the city centralized in the northern part of the city? Is this just the first phase to later expand throughout the city? Have any other nearby cities been presented with this? I always thought that this was the purpose of cell towers? If any of you can add to this please feel free.
Also in the meeting;
Conditional Use Permit Review of use at 152 Main St. Lake County Commissioners Office-Public use in a B-3 Central Business District Passed
Request for Office Use 56 N. State St. Consolidated Investment Corp. For offices for Goodwill Industries- B-3 Central Business District Passed
Temporary Structure and Uses: Temporary Office trailer to provide office space at Lake County Committee on Family Violence Not passed need more information
Temporary Structure and Uses: Lake County Central YMCA- 933 Mentor Ave. two 20 foot storage units . Passed
Really Walmart and Coca-Cola though it was a good idea to run a sale on 12 paks in a 9/11 theme?

Any idea what the YMCA needs the storage units for? Will it become part of the Senior Center? The word running rampant through the Y is they will be leaving Painesville. Word is Mentor will be their new home near the Mall. Lets hope there is no truth to this but as a Y member, it came through honest sources. Lets hope the Painesville leaders and council get on the stick to keep it from leaving. I believe they have called Painesville home all this time, lets keep it that way. After all it is the Central YMCA. The east end Y would is located in Willoughby therefore no longer being a "Central" Y.
9:50 The spokesman for the "Y" mentioned it would be used to story Senior Center items as well as their own items. He left me with the impression this will not be "temporary"
Wonder how long before this experiment will end? I don't see it continuing?
Who can afford a family Y membership?
If the YMCA leaves Painesville, I will leave the YMCA. No matter where it is. Besides, Anywhere in Mentor will be so much fun in traffic. Especially the Mall area.
Telephone poles are not all that bad. But add those horrible looking cell antennas and there look terrible. They wanted to plant a tower very near the corner of Gillette and Walnut St. some years ago. When they entire neighborhood dropped in on the council meeting to protest, company had already withdrawn. A site popped up behind Pizza hut soon after on the tracks & Rt. 20.
Don't let them do it. Just look at Gibbs property on Rt. 84.
5:51
Let's be VERY clear here. These are NOT telephone poles at all. They are strictly for the use of the wireless company. They have nothing to do with any "phone company".
12:16 So what definition should we call wood poles that are 75 ft. tall?
Communication poles? Wouldn't that include telephone poles? Look I don't care about the semantics only what's there purpose?
Term,
The official terminology is "utility poles".
My point was that many people mistakenly call all poles a "telephone pole". In reality, there are very few telephone poles.
The height of the pole has nothing to do with it. It is simply a pole.
2:12. didn't they call those tall one "black Jacks" at one time.
I don't want Painesville streets to look like that infamous picture of India's utility poles, gob's of black liquorish wire tangled all over the place.
