ALTERNATE SITES ON WHITMAN CAMPUS

Under the Zoning Ordinance, the location of the proposed 120-foot cell tower must satisfy the following two set-back requirements:
  1. It must be 300 feet away from the nearest home and
  2. It must be 120 feet (one foot of set-back for each foot of height) inside the school's property boundary.
According to T-Mobile's zoning map, the proposed location for its tower satisfies these two set-back requirements.  (Click this link to see T-Mobile's zoning map.)

We thought it would be interesting to see what other locations within the Whitman campus would satisfy those set-back requirements.  Click this link to view the zoning map with the set-back penciled in.  Any location within the entire area marked in red would satisfy the two set-back requirements.

We do not know what other locations within this area T-Mobile has considered.
