Dear Councillors,

PRE-PLANNING APPLICATION CONSULTATION FOR A MOBILE PHONE BASE STATION INSTALLATION AT
CS_309360, HELLESDON COMMUNITY CENTRE, MIDDLETONS LANE, HELLESDON, NORFOLK, NR6 5SR (NGR:
E620570, N312430)

Cornerstone is the UK's leading mobile infrastructure services company. We acquire, manage, and own
over 20,000 sites and are committed to enabling best in class mobile connectivity for over half of all the
country's mobile customers. We oversee works on behalf of telecommunications providers and wherever
possible aim to:

                •           promote shared infrastructure
                •           maximise opportunities to consolidate the number of base stations
                •           significantly reduce the environmental impact of network development

Cornerstone are in the process of progressing suitable sites in the Hellesdon area for radio base stations
that will improve service provision for VMO2.

The purpose of this letter is to consult with you and seek your views on our proposal before any planning
submission is made. We understand that you are not always able to provide site specific comments,
however, Cornerstone and the operators are committed to consultation with communities on our mobile
telecommunications proposals and as such would encourage you to respond.

As part of VMO2’s continued network improvement program, there is a specific requirement for a new
telecommunication base station at this location to provide upgraded 4G coverage and capacity as well
as new 5G coverage in this area of Hellesdon.

Mobiles can only work with a network of base stations in place where people want to use their mobile
phones or other wireless devices. Without base stations, the mobile phones, and other devices we rely
on simply won’t work.

Please find below the details of the proposed site and the alternative site options considered and
discounted in our site selection process: -

Our technical network requirement is as follows:

CS_309360, HELLESDON COMMUNITY CENTRE, MIDDLETONS LANE, HELLESDON, NORFOLK, NR6 5SR (NGR:
E620570, N312430)

The operator currently provides coverage to the area from an existing installation located at 241,
Reepham Road, Hellesdon, Broadland, Norfolk, NR6 6UW (NGR E:620524, N:312676). However, the existing
installation is not able to support modern telecoms installation required to enable both operators
Vodafone and VMO2 to provide the latest 4G and 5G coverage and capacity to the area. As such, a
new replacement site for VMO2 is required. As the replacement VMO2 site will need to cover the same
target coverage area, it needs to be located as close as possible to the existing site.

A number of options have been assessed in respect of the site search process and the preferred option
is as follows:

CS_309360, HELLESDON COMMUNITY CENTRE, MIDDLETONS LANE, HELLESDON, NORFOLK, NR6 5SR (NGR:
E620570, N312430)

The proposed installation of a telecommunications base station comprising a 20m monopole supporting
6 no. antennas, together with 3 no. ground based equipment cabinets and ancillary development
thereto.

Details enclosed on drawings numbered: 100A, 200A, 201A, 300A & 301A.

5G coverage/capacity in to both the

the existing installation is not able to support
the new 5G antennas for both Vodafone
and VMO2. This existing
telecommunications site has therefore been

remain for Vodafone technologies only.

The Local Planning Authority mast register and our records of other potential sites have already been
reviewed, the policies in the Development Plan have been taken into account and the planning history
of the site has been examined.

All Cornerstone installations are designed to be fully compliant with the public exposure guidelines
established by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection (ICNIRP). These
guidelines have the support of UK Government, the European Union and they also have the formal
backing of the World Health Organisation. A certificate of ICNIRP compliance will be included within the
planning submission.

In order to give you time to send your comments or request further information, we commit to allow at
least 14 days before an application is submitted to the Local Planning Authority. This 14-day period starts
from the date at the top of this letter.

We would also be grateful if you could please advise of any local stakeholders or groups that might like
to make comments.

We look forward to receiving any comments you may have on the proposal.

Should you have any queries regarding this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me (quoting cell
number CS_309360).
