STATUS: THIS PROJECT IS CATEGORICALLY EXEMPT PURSUANT
TO THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 15303 (CLASS 3) OF THE
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT
REQUEST: A REQUEST TO INSTALL AND OPERATE A WIRELESS
TELECOMMUNICATIONS FACILITY CONSISTING OF A
SIXTY-FIVE (65) FOOT TALL MONO-CEDAR FAUX TREE
AND ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT AND CO-LOCATION OF A
FUTURE FACILITY LOCATED WITHIN CEDAR GROVE
PARK.
RECOMMENDATION
That the Zoning Administrator adopt Zoning Administrator Action (ZAA) 10-010
approving Design Review 09-033 to install and operate a wireless telecammunicatians
facility consisting of a sixty-five (65) foot tall mono-cedar faux tree with nine (9) panel
antennas, one (1) parabolic antenna and associated equipment along with the future co-
loration of a facility located within Cedar Grove Park located at 11385 Pioneer Road.
BACKGROUND
Section 7262 of the Tustin City Code requires Design Review for new aboveground
utility facilities and their accessory equipment located on public property and in the
public right-of-way. The proposed stealth wireless facility is proposed as a faux cedar
monopole that would be located in the northerly portion of Cedar Grove Park (City owned)
behind an existing grove of cedar trees. Although the Tustin City Code authorizes the
Community Development Director to consider the project, it has been forwarded to the City
Zoning Administrator in order to allow for a public meeting to accept comments from the
general public regarding the proposed project.

Surrounding Properties
The proposed wireless facility would be located within Cedar Grave Park which is located
in the Tustin Ranch area along Pioneer Road just south of Peters Canyon Road. Low
density residential uses are located to the south, east, and west of Cedar Grove Park.
Residences to the south and east of the project site are located across Pioneer Road
within a private gated community. There is an Orange County Fire Authority station at the
intersection of Pioneer Road and Pioneer Way across the street from the south westerly
corner of the park. Tustin Ranch Estates residential properties are located to the west of
the park and are buffered by a large open space and hillside. To the north of the project
site is Peter's Canyon Elementary School.
Public Noticing
A public meeting notice identifying the time, date, and location of the public meeting for
the proposal was published in the Tustin News on October 7, 2010. Property owners
within 300 feet of the site were notified of the meeting by mail, a meeting sign was posted
on the site, and a public meeting notice was posted at City Hall on October 7, 2010. The
applicant was informed of the availability of the agenda and staff report for this item.
DISCUSSION
As proposed, the wireless telecommunications facility would consist of a sixty-five (65) foot
tall faux cedar tree and its associated equipment and a future co-location facility. The
faux cedar tree would be constructed of a steel monopole and camouflaged with synthetic
bark material, branches, and needles to resemble the existing cedar trees in the area. The
manufacturer notes that the faux cedar tree will consist of 150 branches. The branches
will begin at a height of ten (10) feet above grade level and extend to the top of the faux

tree ranging in length from four (4) feet to twelve (12) feet long. The monopole diameter
will be wider at the base and gradually decrease towards the top of the pole in order to
mimic a real tree.
The applicant is proposing to install nine (9) panel antennas, one (1) parabolic antenna,
and associated ground-mounted equipment which would be contained within a block wall
enclosure. The panel antennas would be mounted near the top of the faux cedar tree
located at a height of sixty (60) feet. The proposed block wall enclosure would be located
adjacent to the faux cedar tree. The block wall would be finished in a stucco exterior with
a graffiti resistant finish painted to match other buildings already existing in the park.
Landscaping consisting of shrubs and vines will be planted around the perimeter of the
block wall enclosure.

Existing cedar trees would serve to screen the proposed facility from the public right-of-
way and adjacent properties. No trees on-site will be removed as a result of the proposed
project. Pursuant to proposed Condition 2.2 of Zoning Administrator Action No. 10-010,
the applicant shall be responsible for replacing any trees that may become diseased
and/or die as a result of the installation and operation of the proposed wireless facility.
No trails yr recreation areas of the park would be impacted due to the proposed location of
the facility.
Co-location Facility
Co-location is the first preference in determining site selection for wireless communication
facilities within the City of Tustin pursuant to Section 9276f(2) of the TCC. The proposed
plans for the facility have proactively identified antenna and equipment locations for future
co-location. Future carriers would place antennas below those being proposed on the
Zoning Administrator Report
DR 09-033
Page 5
faux cedar tree and a block wall enclosure would be placed directly adjacent to the
proposed block wall enclosure to cluster utilities. However, prior to installation of future co-
location facilities, appropriate permits and a separate license agreement would need to be
reviewed and approved by the City. Condition 2.7 of Zoning Administrator Action No. 10-
010 requires the applicant to evaluate all requests for co-location and determine the
compatibility with the existing facility.
Redevelopment Agency, Parks and Recreation Deparfinenf, and City Consultants
The project has been reviewed and approved by the City's Redevelopment Agency, Parks
and Recreation Department, and the City's wireless communications consultant, ATS
Communications. ATS has been authorized by the City Council to negotiate exclusively
for wireless facilities within City-owned properties and the public right-of-way. Through the
use of ATS Communications, optimal locations are identified for wireless facilities on City-
owned property and property within the public right-of-way. ATS works with wireless
carriers to improve cellular service and efficiency within the City while balancing site
selection and aesthetics of proposed wireless facilities.
License Agreement
Tustin City Code Section 7261 requires the applicant/operator to enter into a license
agreement with the City prior to installing or operating the aboveground utility facility on
City property. The license agreement is subject to the approval of the City Council, City
Attorney's office, and the City Manager's office as to the specific terms and conditions
required.
FINDINGS
In determining whether to approve the Design Review for the proposed wireless
telecommunications facility located at 11385 Pioneer Road within Cedar Grove Park, the
Zoning Administrator must find that the location, size, architectural features, and general
appearance of the proposed aboveground utility facility will not impair the orderly and
harmonious development of the area, the present or future development therein, or the
community as a whole. A decision to approve this request as conditioned may be
supported by the following findings:
1) The City's wireless telecommunications consultant, ATS Communications, has
identified the project site as an optimal location for a wireless facility.
Furthermore, ATS Communications has reviewed and approved the proposed
project.
2) The proposed wireless facility complies with Tustin City Code Section 7260 related
to Design Review of Aboveground Utility Facilities on Public Property and in the
Public Right-of-Way and with City Council Resolution No. 01-95 establishing
Design Review guidelines for aboveground utility facilities on public property and in
the public right-of-way.
Zoning Administrator Report
DR 09-033

3) The location, size and general appearance of the proposed project as conditioned
is compatible with the surrounding area in that the faux cedar tree would be of a
stealth design to blend in with the existing perimeter trees and all associated
equipment would be screened within a stucco block wall enclosure. The project
site is also located within an area of Cedar Grove Park that has tow visibility from
the public right-of-way due to extensive tree screening of the proposed facility.
4) The proposed project has identified the potential for co-location of additional
carriers on the wireless facility.
5) The proposed facility will provide wireless coverage to an area that is currently
deficient of wireless reception.
6) A license agreement with the City is required prior to installation or operation of the
proposed facility in accordance with Section 7261 of the Tustin City Code.
Staff recommends that that the Zoning Administrator adopt Zoning Administrator Action
No. 10-010 approving Design Review 09-033 to install and operate a wireless
telecommunications facility consisting of a sixty-five (65) foot tall mono-cedar faux tree
with nine (9) panel antennas, one (1) parabolic antenna and its associated equipment
along with a future co-location facility located within Cedar Grove Park located at 11385

ZONING ADMINISTRATOR ACTION NO. 10-010
ZONING ADMINISTRATOR ACTION 10-010
DESIGN REVIEW 09-033
11385 PIONEER ROAD
CEDAR GROVE PARK
The Zoning Administrator of the Gity of Tustin does hereby resolve as follows:
The Zoning Administrator finds and determines as follows:
A. That a proper application for Design Review 09-033 was filed by T-Mobile
West Corporation requesting to install and operate a wireless
telecommunications facility consisting of a sixty-five (65) foot tall mono-
cedar faux tree with nine (9) panel antennas, one (1) parabolic antenna
and its associated equipment along with a future co-location facility
located within Cedar Grove Park located at 11385 Pioneer Road.
B. That the site is zoned as Planned Community Residential and located
within the East Tustin Specific Plan; and designated as Planned
Community Residential by the General Plan.
C. That the Community Development Director has forwarded the Design
Review application to the City Zoning Administrator in order to allow for a
public meeting to accept comments from the general public regarding the
proposed project.
D. That Tustin City Code Section 7262 requires Design Review for new
aboveground utility facilities and their accessory equipment located on
public property and in the public right-of-way. City Council Resolution No.
01-95 provides guidelines for aboveground utility facilities on public
property and within the public right-of-way and the project has been
reviewed for consistency with the guidelines.
E. That a public meeting was duly called, noticed, and held for Design Review
09-033 on October 20, 2010, by the Zoning Administrator.
F. That the City's wireless telecommunications consultant, ATS
communications, has identified the project site as an optimal location for a
wireless facility. Furthermore, ATS Communications has reviewed and
approved the proposed project.
G. That the proposed wireless facility complies with Tustin City Code Section
7260 related to Design Review of Aboveground Utility Facilities on Public
Property and in the Public Right-of-Way and with City Council Resolution
No. 01-95 establishing Design Review guidelines for aboveground utility
facilities on public property and in the public right-of-way.
Zoning Administrator Action 10-010

H. That the location, size and general appearance of the proposed project as
conditioned is compatible with the surrounding area in that the faux cedar
tree would be of a stealth design to blend in with the existing perimeter
trees and all associated equipment would be screened within a stucco block
wall enclosure. The project site is also located within an area of Cedar
Grove Park that has low visibility from the public right-of-way due to
extensive tree screening of the proposed facility.
That the proposed project has identified the potential for co-location of
additional carriers on the wireless facility.
That the proposed facility will provide wireless coverage to an area that is
currently deficient of wireless reception.
K. That a license agreement with the City is required prior to installation or
operation of the proposed facility in accordance with Section 7261 of the
Tustin City Code.
L. That the location, size, aesthetic features, and general appearance of the
proposed wireless facility will not impair the orderly and harmonious
development of the area, the present or future development therein, or the
community as a whole. In making such findings, the Zoning Administrator
has considered at least the following items:
Height, bulk, and area of proposed structure.
Setbacks and site planning.
Exterior material and colors.
Towers and antennae.
Landscaping and parking area design and traffic circulation.
Location and appearance of equipment located outside of an
enclosed structure.
Physical relationship of proposed structure to existing structures
Appearance and design relationship of proposed structures to
existing structures and possible future structures in the neighborhood
and public thoroughfares.
Development guidelines and criteria as adopted by the City Council.
M. That this project is Categorically Exempt pursuant to Section 15303, Class
3, Title 14, Chapter 3 of the California Cade of Regulations (Guidelines for
the California Environmental Quality Act).
II. The Zoning Administrator hereby approves Design Review 09-033 to install and
operate a wireless telecommunications facility consisting of a sixty-five (65) foot
tall mono-cedar faux tree with nine (9) panel antennas, one (1) parabolic antenna
