MEETING DATE: APRIL 8, 2014
TO: PLANNING COMMISSION
FROM: COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT
SUBJECT: CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT 2013 -13 & DESIGN REVIEW 2013 -11
BACKGROUND
The proposed project is an unmanned wireless communication facility consisting of a fifty
(50) foot tall mono - eucalyptus faux tree with twelve (12) panel antennas and associated
equipment mounted to the structure. The project site is a comer lot developed with a
single -story tilt -up light industrial building approximately fifteen (15) feet in height,
located at 14450 Chambers Road in the Planned Community Industrial (PC IND) Zoning
District.
The applicant has been working with staff to improve the design and site placement of the
proposed project to more closely comply with the City's criteria and guidelines for wireless
communication facilities.
Conditional Use Permit 2013 -13 and Design Review 2013 -11 were properly noticed for an
April 8, 2014, public hearing. However, based on new information regarding the project
site, the application has provided a written request (attached) to continue the item to
April 22, 2014. The applicant indicated that on March 31, 2014, revised plans and photo
simulations will be prepared and submitted for staff review.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff is recommending that the Planning Commission table their consideration of
Conditional Use Permit 2013 -13 and Design Review 2013 -11 in order to provide adequate
time for staff to review the revised plans and photo simulations, prepare a revised staff
report and prepare and distribute the required public hearing materials for a re- noticed
hearing.
