Lookout Mountain & Mount Morrison Hearings

Channel 31 Fox Broadcast Tower
|
- April 15, 1999: JeffCo Board of
Adjustment approves Mary Bunn’s permit
for adding a FOX-TV digital transmitter
on Lookout Mountain. Attorney Victor
Boog presents proof that the parcel owned
by News Corporation is 4.6 acres, not the
five acres required for A-1 Special Use
zoning. CARE supports Boog in a District
Court appeal, which also backed JeffCo on
November 5, 1999.
- April 27, 1999: JeffCo Commissioners
hearing for Lake Cedar Group proposed
854 foot Supertower and 35,000 sq. ft.
building to broadcast digital television for
their five TV stations and rent to as many
as 35 high-power TV and FM transmitters
as well as hundreds of low power wireless
antennas. Planning staff recommends
denial. LCG paid attorney Tom Ragonetti,
former FCC engineer from San Francisco
Robert Weller, University of California
physics professor Dr. Jerrold Bushberg,
Sacramento researcher Dr. Litchberg,
Michigan engineer John Browne, and RF
engineer from Washington D.C. Dr. Julius
Cohen.

- Colorado Health Dept. epidemiologist, Dr. Richard
Hoffman,
testifies that the Lookout Mountain cancer
survey is being misrepresented by the Denver media.
“We did not reach any definite conclusions. Without
further study, we don’t know if RF contributed to the
significant number of cancers.”
Representing 30,000
citizens recommending denial are CARE
attorney
Deb Carney, Psychiatrist Dr. Paul Polak, Pediatric
oncologist Dr. Cindi Kelly, Colorado Representative
Dr. John Witwer, and Bryan Sterling representing
Golden City Council.
- April 28, 1999: Witwer’s HB 1340 is considered by
the Colorado Senate Business Affairs and Labor
Committee chaired by Norma Anderson (passed on
from Colorado House Business Affairs and Labor
Committee hearing on April 6). Twelve professionals
volunteered testimony to support the bill. Among many
paid LCG consultants is Channel 9 station manager
Roger Ogden who testifies there is no need for any
health research. They (LCG) are complying with
Jefferson County’s desire to “consolidate” towers on
Lookout Mountain. Editorials in the Rocky Mountain
News and Denver Post opposed the bill, which died
in committee.

- May 4, 1999: Mt. Morrison tower hearing by
JeffCo Commissioners for the
proposed 300 foot
guyed tower and
12,000 sq. ft. building. Engineer
Jay
Jacobsmeyer says the tower based at
7700
feet altitude would actually be 350
feet higher and
provide better coverage
than the proposed LCG
854 foot tower
based at 6800 feet altitude in a
residential
area. Citizens from Morrison, Genesee,
Lookout Mountain and Lininger Mountain
recommend denial.
- May 23, 1999: CARE holds a fund raising
party
for Tower Hazards & Radiation
Exposure Above
Tolerance (THREAT) to
pay attorneys, office
supplies, and
communication.
