1 Communication Systems Development, Inc. Project Description CSD Communications Facility Project Applicant: Communication Systems Development, Inc. Project Site Owner: William and Charles Beckman Project Location: 1.5 miles east of Lockeford on Hwy . $$ APN: 019-120-05 Proposed Project: Communications Facility Applicants Project # SJ-049 The applicant requests the following_ A Site Approval in accordance with the regulations of The County of San Joaquin for a Communications Facility for wireless communication antennas at the above mentioned project location. Project Description: The wireless communications industry is in the process of deploying large communication networks throughout California, and in anticipation of the proliferation of antenna/communication sites that will be required, CSD would like to construct communication towers for the sole purpose of locating multiple future carriers. At this time, two (2) cellular carriers, three (3) PCS carriers and two (2) paging carriers are licensed to develop communication networks in the central valley. The federal government is auctioning 3 more licenses for radio spectrum in each county as well, making the total number of licensed carriers about 10. (This does not include the "unlicensed" carriers that will be developing in the area.) By constructing one (1) 140' lattice communications tower, there is the potential to locate up to seven (7) of these carriers antenna arrays on each tower rather than having one monopole site for each carrier. CSD has been a consultant for some of the industries largest wireless carriers and is familiar with radio engineering principles. (CSD has a Radio Frequency department.) We have strategically located CSD's towers by utilizing our technical expertise. By utilizing existing towers, these carriers will save time, money, and effort using the existing sites, all of which will expedite their build-out.
