Subject: Removal of Phone Boxes

BT are proposing to remove 13 phone boxes in Aberdeen. The number of calls made
from each

one over the last year range from 3 to 781 for one at Byron Square. The
planning authority can object to the removal of individual boxes on the basis
of reasons set out in Annex 1 of this document;

http://stakeholders.ofcom.org.uk/binaries/consultations/uso/statement/removals.pdf

Essentially, type and tenure of housing in the area, revenue, the need for
emergency calls and

mobile coverage are regarded as valid issues to consider.

All 13 boxes should have a notice in them telling people about the removal and
which asks

people to contact their local planning department if they have any comments.

The planning authority also needs to canvas the views of local communities and
this should

include community councils. A list of phone boxes BT propose to remove is
attached.

If you have any comments on the removal of specific phone boxes, they should be
sent to:

Andrew Brownrigg

Local Development Plan

Aberdeen City Council

Business Hub 4 Ground Floor North

Marischal College

Broad Street

Aberdeen

AB10 1AB

Comments should be received no later than Friday 27th September 2019. This will
allow us time to collate comments and send them to BT by their deadline soon
afterwards.

Regards, Andy
