The Application seeks approval for the construction of a new 150-foot telecommunications tower, with an additional 10-foot lightning rod(total above ground level ("AGL") height of 160- feet) ("Proposed Tower") on CSX Transportation Inc.'s ("CSX") property located at 1117 NW 9th Street, Okeechobee,FL 34972,under Application File Number 22-003-SE. SBA is the owner One Independent Drive-Suite 1400 I Jacksonville,FL 32202 I Telephone:(904)389-0050 I Facsimile:(904)212-1269 I www.jimersonfirrn.com City of Okeechobee Board of Adjustment December 14, 2022 2 of an existing 150-foot telecommunications tower ("SBA's Tower") located at 3079 NW 8th Street, Okeechobee, Florida 34972, just 0.7 miles from the planned location of the Proposed Tower. Please see Exhibit A for the specific location of the Proposed Tower and SBA's Tower. As described in more detail below, the Board should deny the Application because CitySwitch failed to demonstrate compliance with all of the requirements of the City's Land Development Regulations ("LDR")necessary for the Application to be approved, as follows: (1)CitySwitch failed to demonstrate a need or demand for the Proposed Tower,as required by LDR Section 90-602(2)(b),because: (a) AT&T's argument that the Proposed Tower is needed due to the cost of rent on SBA's Tower is no longer applicable because SBA offered to match the monthly rent rate currently offered to AT&T by CitySwitch on the Proposed Tower, less $10.00; and (b) the Proposed Tower would not provide any appreciable increase in signal coverage or strength over the SBA's Tower due to its close proximity to SBA's Tower and another existing tower owned by American Tower Corporation which is located to the West of the Proposed Tower and available for AT&T's collocation ("Existing ATC Tower"); and (2) the Proposed Tower will have an adverse effect on the interests of the citizens of the City contrary to LDR Section 70-373(c)(3), by allowing the proliferation of an unnecessary new tower without any additional cell coverage or benefit, and AT&T's relocation from SBA's Tower to the Proposed Tower will decrease available coverage to the citizens located to the West of the SBA's Tower. CitySwitch Fails to Demonstrate a Need or Demand for the Proposed Tower For the Application to be approved, CitySwitch is required to demonstrate a "need or demand for the"Proposed Tower under LDR Section 90-602(2)(b). In its Application,CitySwitch states that the Proposed Tower is needed for AT&T to "relocate equipment off an existing tower where rent has become exorbitantly high." However, the "need" referenced in LDR Section 90-602(2)(b) was clearly intended to be the "need" of the public, i.e., the citizens of the City, for a new communications tower for cellular coverage. "Need" under that section of the Code was certainly not intended to be the desire of a Fortune 100 company like AT&T to get out of a lease that it previously signed and agreed to as a contract. Further, any alleged need related to the rental payments under AT&T's lease with SBA is negated by the fact that on December 14, 2022, SBA offered to match the monthly rental rate currently offered to AT&T by CitySwitch on the Proposed Tower, less $10.00. As set forth in the Declaration under oath of SBA Site Marketing Manager Brooke Irby, attached as Exhibit B, in a good faith effort to accommodate AT&T's newly expressed desire to re-negotiate the terms of its lease with SBA for AT&T to continue collocating on SBA's Tower, SBA sent a letter to AT&T on December 14,2022,offering to match the monthly rental rate currently offered to AT&T JIMERSON BIRR One Independent Drive-Suite 1400 I Jacksonville,FL 32202 I Telephone:(904)389-0050 I Facsimile:(904)212-1269 I www.jimersonfirm.com City of Okeechobee Board of Adjustment December 14, 2022 Page 13 by CitySwitch, less $10.00, upon AT&T providing a copy of bona fide documentation of the monthly rental rate offered by CitySwitch. In short, SBA has offered AT&T lease terms at a lower cost than what AT&T could obtain from CitySwitch. As stated in the Sworn Statement of Spencer Gamrell with AT&T that CitySwitch provided in support of the Application, AT&T will bear a significant capital cost in decommissioning its equipment from SBA's Tower and re-locating to the Proposed Tower, and would prefer not to do so. As SBA has offered to match the monthly rental rate offered by CitySwitch, less $10.00, AT&T will be better positioned by remaining on SBA's Tower and avoiding the cost of re-locating to the Proposed Tower. AT&T can instead use the relocation costs to benefit the public by upgrading its equipment and installing FirstNet equipment on SBA's Tower. Moreover,although AT&T provided an RF analysis and RF maps("AT&T RF Analysis") which appear to depict a slight gap in coverage in the middle of the map and to the East of SBA's Tower, the AT&T RF Analysis fails to consider coverage from all of the existing and available towers located in AT&T's search ring, including the Existing ATC Tower. As demonstrated below, the Existing ATC Tower is located in the exact area that AT&T claims there is a gap in coverage: f � itairin ,tt�il4 • Ij ! .

Rather, the Proposed Tower will provide duplicative or overlapping coverage with SBA's Tower and the Existing ATC Tower, making the Proposed Tower unnecessary. Instead of constructing another new tower in AT&T's identified search ring,AT&T should instead put its equipment in a location where it expands coverage to the citizens of the City by keeping its equipment on SBA's Tower and putting any new equipment on the Existing ATC Tower. This is exactly what other carriers in the area have done,including T-Mobile and Verizon. Should the Board approve the Application and allow for construction of the Proposed Tower without a demonstrated need, it will set a dangerous precedent that could result in the proliferation of multiple unnecessary towers throughout the landscape. Clearly, such a situation would be to the detriment of the citizens of the City, and contrary to the intent and plain language of the City's LDR. Accordingly,because CitySwitch fails to demonstrate a need for the Proposed Tower, the Application should be denied. The Proposed Tower Will Have an Adverse Effect on The Interests of the Citizens of The City by Allowing the Proliferation of an Unnecessary New Tower and By Decreasing Available Cell Coverage To The Citizens Located To The West of SBA's Tower Further, in granting a special exception use, the Board is required to find that the proposed special exception use "will not have an adverse effect on the public interest." LDR Section 70- 373(c)(3). As stated in the Application,the Proposed Tower is being sought for AT&T to relocate its equipment from SBA's Tower to the Proposed Tower to receive a lower lease rate. However, if the Board approves the Application and allows an entirely new communications tower to be constructed less than a mile from SBA's Tower without any additional cell coverage or benefit, it will have an adverse effect on the interests of the citizens of the City by allowing the proliferation of an unnecessary new tower. Further, if AT&T removes its equipment from SBA's Tower, it will result in a loss of some of the available cell coverage to the citizens located to the West of SBA's Tower. As explained in the Mr. Dhawan's Declaration (Exhibit C), the Proposed Tower will shift the available coverage in the area 0.7 miles to the East, causing at best a marginal improvement of coverage 0.7 miles to the East. However,this relocation would also eliminate some of the available coverage to the citizens located to the West of SBA's Tower. Rather than building an entirely new tower that would at best only marginally improve coverage to slightly to the East of SBA's Tower, while also reducing some of the available coverage to the West of SBA's Tower, AT&T could remain on SBA's Tower and also collocate onto the Existing ATC Tower,which would maximize coverage to all citizens in the area. In fact, carriers in the area including Verizon and T-Mobile are collocated on both SBA's Tower and the Existing ATC Tower to achieve maximum cell coverage to its customers in the area. Should the Board approve the Application and allow for construction of the Proposed Tower, it will be at the expense of the citizens located to the West of SBA's Tower, who will experience a decrease in the available cell coverage, as well as all of the citizens in the City, who JBJIMERSON BIRR One Independent Drive-Suite 1400 I Jacksonville,FL 32202 I Telephone:(904)389-0050 I Facsimile:(904)212-1269 I www.jimersonfirm.com City of Okeechobee Board of Adjustment December 14, 2022 Page I5 will experience the proliferation of an unnecessary and unsightly new tower. Clearly, such a situation would be to the detriment of the citizens of the City, and contrary to the intent and plain language of the City's LDR. Accordingly,because the Proposed Tower will have an adverse effect on the interests of the citizens of the City, the Application should be denied. Conclusion In sum, the Application should be denied because (1) CitySwitch failed to demonstrate a need or demand for the Proposed Tower, as required by LDR Section 90-602(2)(b), and (2) the Proposed Tower will have an adverse effect on the interests of the citizens of the City,contrary to LDR Section 70-373(c)(3).

I am the Site Marketing Manager for SBA 2012 TC Assets, LLC, a subsidiary of SBA Communications Corporation ("SBA"). 2. I make this Declaration with the understanding that it is to be used in opposition to the Application for Special Exception, Application No. 22-003-SE, submitted by Ignite Wireless/Kyle Lotze, as authorized agent for CitySwitch II-A, LLC ("CitySwitch"). All statements contained in this Declaration are based upon my personal knowledge or my personal knowledge of the business records of SBA. I am over the age of eighteen and I am fully competent to testify to the facts recited herein.l 3. It is my job to interact with carriers, such as AT&T, who have located, or are interested in locating, onto an SBA telecommunications tower in Florida. In my capacity working for SBA, I am one of the primary custodians of the organizational documents, files, applications, letters, correspondence, reports, and other paperwork transmitted or received in connection with the dealings with AT&T Wireless ("AT&T") in Florida (the "Records"). SBA's files contain documents which were made and/or kept as part of the Records,contemporaneously at or near the time of the events so memorialized herein, by or from information transmitted by SBA's employees and personnel who had knowledge of the facts set forth in such documents. The Records are kept in the course of a regularly conducted business activity and for each such document contained in the Records,it was the regular practice of business activity to make or retain such document. To the extent that I refer to any such document other than those made or received by me personally,such document is one of SBA's Records. 4. I maintain an open line of communication with the carriers, such as AT&T, to discuss tenant issues, including but not limited to, collocation, new equipment, centerline placement of equipment onto SBA communication towers, and other related matters. This would include the communications tower SBA has owned, operated, and maintained since October 1, 2012, in Okeechobee County,FL on property located at 3079 NW 8th Street,Okeechobee, Florida 34972 ("SBA's Tower"). 5. I understand CitySwitch is seeking approval for the construction of a new 150-foot telecommunications tower, with an additional 10-foot lightning rod (total above ground level ("AGL") height of 160-feet) ("Proposed Tower") on CSX Transportation Inc.'s ("CSX") property located at 1117 NW 9th Street, Okeechobee, FL 34972. 6. I was surprised by CitySwitch's Application for Special Exception that identified AT&T as the primary intended tenant on the Proposed Tower, as I regularly communicate with AT&T. 7. AT&T currently leases space and maintains its communications equipment on SBA's Tower. AT&T has collocated on SBA's Tower since 2008, prior to SBA's ownership. 8. In exchange for collocating on SBA's Tower,AT&T agreed to make rent payments to SBA, in accordance with the Site Lease Agreement dated September 23, 2008, originally established between Nextel South Corp and AT&T. SBA has always billed AT&T in accordance with the agreed upon Site Lease Agreement. 9. Since AT&T has collocated on SBA's Tower, the Site Lease Agreement has been amended 6 times. The most recent amendment to the Site Lease Agreement is dated August 30, 2021, for AT&T to make changes to its equipment mounted on SBA's Tower. 2 10. When AT&T executed the Site Lease Agreement on August 30, 2021, AT&T did not mention any issues or concerns with the Site Lease Agreement with SBA or raise any concerns about the amount of the rent due to SBA for collocating on SBA's Tower. 11. In my prior communications with AT&T, it has not mentioned concerns or issues with SBA's Tower, inquired whether SBA's Tower could accommodate FirstNet equipment, nor has AT&T raised any other concerns to SBA about its occupancy on SBA's Tower. Notably, AT&T has never contacted me about reducing the overall monthly rent rate on SBA's Tower, nor attempted to re-negotiate the terms of the Site Lease Agreement relating to the monthly rent rate. 12. AT&T is currently a tenant on over 6,690 SBA telecommunications towers nationwide. Given our relationship with AT&T, SBA would certainly appreciate the opportunity to work with AT&T to stay collocated on SBA's Tower, which prevents the unnecessary and needless proliferation of telecommunication towers in the City of Okeechobee, Florida. 13. Notably, on December 14, 2022, in an effort to accommodate AT&T's newly expressed desire to re-negotiate the terms of the Site Lease Agreement for AT&T to continue collocating on SBA's Tower, I sent an email to AT&T offering to match the monthly rent rate currently offered to AT&T by CitySwitch on the Proposed Tower, less $10.00 ("SBA's Rent Match Email"). A copy of SBA's Rent Match Email that was sent to AT&T on December 14, 2022, is attached as Exhibit 1. 14. As stated in SBA's Rent Match Email, SBA is willing to match the monthly rental rate currently offered to AT&T by CitySwitch on the Proposed Tower, less $10.00, upon AT&T providing a copy of bona fide documentation of the monthly rental rate offered by CitySwitch on the Proposed Tower. 3 15. Further, having reviewed SBA's corporate records, I can confirm SBA most certainly can accommodate additional equipment for AT&T, including FirstNet equipment, and can accommodate CSX's equipment, on SBA's Tower. 16. Should AT&T's needs require modifications to SBA's Tower, SBA is willing to discuss AT&T's needs with them further. Such modifications as may be needed to accommodate AT&T at a higher height or for more/larger equipment are common practice in the telecommunications industry. 17. In sum, there is ample structural capacity for SBA's Tower to handle more equipment, including CSX's equipment and AT&T's FirstNet equipment, as SBA constructed SBA's Tower to house multiple tenants. [Signature follows on next page] 4 UNDER PENALTIES OF PERJURY, I DECLARE THAT I HAVE READ THE FOREGOING STATEMENTS,AND THAT THE FACTS STATED THEREIN ARE TRUE AND CORRECT.

I did not know that AT&T had any interest in renegotiating the current lease or moving away from SBA's tower until SBA discovered CitySwitch's and AT&T's application to construct a new wireless communications facility (.7 miles from the SBA tower) after it already had been filed. It surprises SBA that AT&T did not reach out to SBA or contact me to attempt to renegotiate the lease at issue before moving forward with relocation efforts especially since AT&T just amended this lease in 2021. SBA comes in good faith, seeking to negotiate a lease for AT&T's continued collocation at this site. Please accept this email as SBA's offer to match the corresponding monthly rental rate currently offered to AT&T by CitySwitch on the above referenced tower lease for the above referenced site, less $10.00. SBA will require AT&T first to provide a copy of bona fide documentation proving the rate offered by CitySwitch to AT&T. In order to expedite this process, please send the requested documentation to me via e-mail at birby@sbasite.com. SBA is hopeful we can reach a solution that is best for the City of Okeechobee community while helping AT&T be successful.

I am employed as the Vice President, New Business Technology and Operations for SBA Communications Corporation. I am providing this Declaration on behalf of SBA Towers IX, LLC, a subsidiary of SBA Communications Corporation ("SBA"). 2. I have thirty(30)years of wireless experience working in designing,deploying,and optimization of networks with wireless carriers. During my tenure in the wireless industry,I have worked with wireless carriers on multiple generations of deployment from 2G to 5G. Additionally, I manage a team of Radio Frequency ("RF") Engineers, who focus on wireless design and engineering, in and among other things. 3. I make this Declaration with the understanding that it is to be used in opposition to the Application for Special Exception,Application No. 22-003-SE("Application"), submitted by Ignite Wireless/Kyle Lotze, as authorized agent for CitySwitch II-A, LLC ("CitySwitch"). All statements contained in this Declaration are based upon my personal knowledge or my personal knowledge of the business records of SBA. I am over the age of eighteen (18) and I am fully competent to testify to the facts recited herein.' 4. SBA has owned, operated, and maintained a 150-foot communications tower situated on property located at 23079 NW 8th Street, Okeechobee, Florida 34972 ("SBA's Tower"). 5. I understand the Application is seeking to construct a new 150-foot communications tower,with an additional 10-foot lightning rod(total above ground level("AGL)" height of 160-feet,to be situated on property located at 1117 NW 9th Street, Okeechobee,Florida 34972 ("Proposed CitySwitch Tower"), which is only 0.747 miles from SBA's Tower. 6. The SBA Records include an RF Coverage Plot Analysis and the RF Coverage Plots, which compare the available coverage at varying frequencies on SBA's Tower at 120-feet and 155-feet, and the Proposed CitySwitch Tower at 145-feet (collectively, the "SBA RF Analysis"). The SBA RF Analysis is attached to this Affidavit as Exhibit 1. 7. I have reviewed the SBA RF Analysis,and based upon my education,training, and experience, I can confirm that the SBA RF Analysis is an accurate depiction and comparison of the RF coverage between SBA's Tower and the Proposed CitySwitch Tower at varying frequencies. In my capacity working for SBA, I am one of the primary custodians of the organizational documents, files, applications, letters, correspondence, reports, and other paperwork transmitted or received in connection with communication towers located in Florida (the "SBA Records"). SBA's files contain documents which were made and/or kept as part of the SBA Records, contemporaneously at or near the time of the events so memorialized herein, by or from information transmitted by SBA's employees and personnel who had knowledge of the facts set forth in such documents. The SBA Records are kept in the course of regularly conducted business activity and for each such document contained in the SBA Records, it is the regular practice of business activity to make or retain such documents. To the extent that I refer to any such document other than those made or received by me personally,such document is one of the SBA Records. 2 8. Based upon my education, training, and experience, I agree with and adopt the findings in the SBA RF Analysis that the Proposed CitySwitch Tower would not appreciably expand the scope or strength of available coverage in the area, but would instead provide duplicative or overlapping coverage with the that provided by SBA's Tower. Further, the installation of additional antennas on the Proposed CitySwitch Tower would be considered an "overbuild" or impractical given the coverage overlap with SBA's Tower. 9. I have also reviewed the RF analysis by AT&T entitled,"RF Justification for HRR Site FA 15611191, West Okee Relo" (the "AT&T RF Analysis"), which was included with the Application. A copy of the AT&T RF Analysis is attached to this Affidavit as Exhibit 2. 10. The AT&T RF Analysis only considers coverage from SBA's Tower which is 0.747 miles to the West of the Proposed CitySwitch Tower and another tower which is 3.107 miles to the East of the Proposed CitySwitch Tower(the"OKEE Tower"),on which AT&T also currently has active antennas. 11. However,the AT&T RF Analysis does not consider coverage from another existing tower owned by American Tower Corporation which is 0.866 miles to the East of the Proposed CitySwitch Tower and available for collocation(the"Existing ATC Tower"). A map identifying the locations of SBA's Tower, the Proposed CitySwitch Tower and the Existing ATC Tower is attached as Exhibit 3, and the specific addresses of each Tower are set out below: • SBA's Tower (existing AT&T colocation) Address: 3079 NW 8th Street, Okeechobee, FL 34972 Coordinates: Latitude 27.2514; Longitude -80.85687 • Proposed CitySwitch Tower Address: 1117 NW 9th Street, Okeechobee, FL Coordinates: Latitude 27.25214; Longitude -80.84480 • Existing ATC Tower(colocation candidate) Address: 119 NW 8th Street, Okeechobee,FL 3 Coordinates: Latitude 27.250869; Longitude -80.830700 12. SBA's Tower and the Existing ATC Tower are both located within the search ring identified by AT&T in the AT&T RF Analysis. 13. When considering the scope or strength of available coverage in the area, it is necessary to consider coverage from the towers that are located within AT&T's search ring and are available for collocation,including SBA's Tower and the Existing ATC Tower. In comparing coverage from SBA's Tower and the Existing ATC Tower to the Proposed CitySwitch Tower, it is clear that from the SBA RF Analysis, that the Proposed CitySwitch Tower would not appreciably expand the scope or strength of available coverage in the area, but would instead provide duplicative or overlapping coverage with SBA's Tower and the Existing ATC Tower. 14. Further,if AT&T re-located from SBA's Tower to the Proposed CitySwitch Tower, it would shift the available coverage in the area 0.7 miles to the East, causing at best a marginal improvement in coverage 0.7 miles to the East. However, this relocation would also eliminate some of the available coverage to the citizens located to the West of SBA's Tower. 15. Rather than building an entirely new tower that would at best only marginally improve coverage to slightly to the East of SBA's Tower, while hurting coverage at the expense of the citizens located to the West of SBA's Tower, AT&T could remain on SBA's Tower and also collocate onto the Existing ATC Tower,which would maximize coverage to all citizens in the area. 16. In fact, the other carriers on SBA's Tower (Verizon and T-Mobile) are already collocated on both SBA's Tower and the Existing ATC Tower to achieve maximum coverage to all citizens in the area. 4 17. Instead of constructing another new tower in AT&T's identified search ring,AT&T should instead put its equipment in a location where it expands coverage to the citizens of the City of Okeechobee by keeping its equipment on SBA's Tower and putting any new equipment on the Existing ATC Tower. [Signature follows on next page] 5 UNDER PENALTIES OF PERJURY, I DECLARE THAT I HAVE READ THE FOREGOING STATEMENTS,AND THAT THE FACTS STATED THEREIN ARE TRUE AND CORRECT. Date: I / I= -/'ZD Z2 SANJAY DHAWAN 6 Exhibit 1 TO: SBA Subject: RF Coverage Plot Analysis: City of Okeechobee, FL Date:October 18, 2022 1. METHODOLOGY. The attached plots depict broadcast radio frequency(RF) coverage from the existing site to City of Okeechobee, FL and a proposed site approximately 0.7452 miles to the East. At each location,cellular industry typical LTE operating parameters were considered for omnidirectional antennas mounted at 120 and 155 feet above ground level at the existing site, and at 145 feet above ground level for the proposed site. Ground elevations are 33 and 29 feet above mean sea level, respectively. Plots for both locations were generated for 700, 850, 1900 and 2100 MHz operations. The signal levels depicted are associated with LTE service reliability where the strong coverage levels in green and blue occur near the towers and decrease with distance from the sites and intervening terrain obstructions. Signal levels greater than -70 dBm shown as blue are associated with feasible coverage within buildings. Marginal coverage is provided in the regions depicted in yellow between-90 dBm and-80 dBm and signal levels between-100 dBm and-90 dBm shown as red represent poor coverage associated with call failures. A comparison of coverage performance for each site is based on low band (700 and 850 MHz) and high band (1900 and 2100 MHz) prediction results. Radiowave propagation conditions between these bands differ because of terrain and ground clutter (e.g. vegetation) effects at different frequencies. Generally, low band operations provide greater area coverage. Therefore, high band operations provide additional customer traffic capacity closer to the cellular site. 2. COMPARISON. The sites considered in these coverage plots provide service to the depicted locations and roads leading to City of Okeechobee, FL. For low band operations, the existing site provides strong coverage approximately 1.3 miles in all directions and to non-contiguous areas to 1.7 miles from the site. This includes 1.6 miles of US Hwy 98. The proposed site provides strong coverage approximately 1.3 miles in all directions and to non-contiguous areas to 1.7 miles from the site. This includes 1.6 miles of US Hwy 98. For high band operations, both sites provide strong coverage to non-contiguous areas 0.7 miles in all directions. 3. CONCLUSION. Based on the coverage comparison presented above, the proposed site provides comparable coverage to City of Okeechobee, FL due to its close proximity to the existing site. For wireless operators with antennas mounted on the existing site, the installation of additional antennas on the proposed site would be considered to be an "overbuild" or impractical given the coverage overlap. �. t ud.. . y1 ti. 1v 1.r r i 4;N � .Ir ; '• '� ', 14y, a w 1 .. i . - F A " i r, ' i 'l k 'Ir.- .
