The Planning Commission does hereby resolve as follows: I · The Planning Commission finds and determines as follows: A· That a proper application for Conditional Use Permit 96-015 and Design Review 96r035 was filed by the Planning Center, on behalf of Pacific Bell Mobile Services, to establish a major wireless facility for Pacific Bell Mobile Services' Personal Communication Services (PCS) Network, consisting of one (1) cylinder cell antenna (approximately 78 inches long and 15 inches in diameter) on the roof, and a Base Transceiver Station in the basement, of a.35-foot tall building located at 18062 Irvine Boulevard. The antenna, mounted on a pole support, is proposed to rise approximately nine (9) feet above the' highest' portion of the rooftop. B · That, pursuant, to Section 3, Subsection 5.0, of Ordinance No. 1167, the proposed use is allowed within the Retail Commercial (C-I) Zoning District with the approval of a Conditional Use Permit. C· That a public hearing was duly called, noticed and held on said application on August 26, 1996 by the Planning Commission. D. That establishment, maintenance, and operation of a major wireless communication facility, as conditioned, will not be detrimental to the health, safety, morals, comfort, or general welfare of the persons residing or working in the neighborhood of such proposed use, nor be injurious or detrimental to the property and improvements 'in the neighborhood of the subject property, or to the general welfare of · the City of Tustin,. as evidenced by the .following findings: · The location and configuration of the proposed use is consistent With the City's adopted site selection criteria 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 Resolution No. 3462 Page 2 (Ord. 1167, §3, §§4.0) for wireless communication facilities, which identifies placement "[o] n existing structures such as buildings" as the preferred site selection for such facilities. . The negative visual impact of the proposed wireless communication facility will be minimized in that the design of the antenna is simple and unobtrusive, and its visibility from adjacent rights- of-way will be obscured by existing trees ~nd other streetscape elements. In addition, the antenna and supporting structure will have a subdued, non- reflective color to minimize their visibility to the greatest extent practicable. All other components of the proposed wireless communication facility will be located inside the building or within the rooftop equipment well, below the roof parapet. E o Pursuant to Section 9272 of the Tustin Municipal Code, the Commission finds that the location, size, architectural features and general appearance of Design Review 96-035 will not impair the orderly and harmonious development of the area, the present or future development therein, or the occupancy as a whole. In making such findings, the Commission has considered at least the following items: 1. Height, bulk and area of buildings. 2. Setbacks and site planning. 3. · Location, height and standards exterior illumination. of . . Physical relationship of' proposed improvements to existing structures in the neighborhood.
