Staff Recommendation
Approve the Wireless Communication Facilities (WCF) application for a new 110 foot type 1 monopole, subject to one condition and one waiver:
Condition #1: Compliance with the access and paving standards set forth in the City's Land Development Manual. Before MPC staff issues a COA, the applicant has to provide the necessary information to City Engineering to ensure that the applicant is compliant with the City's Land Development Manual standards. Once this condition is met, City Engineering will communicate to MPC staff that this condition has been satisfied and a COA will be issued.
Waiver #1: A waiver is required for this application because the tower is located within 600 feet of an existing US Cellular tower. The ordinance has a 1,500 foot separation standard (distance between towers). The ordinance permits MPC to grant an exception to this separation standard, provided the applicant can demonstrate that technically neither coverage nor capacity can be achieved using these standards. The applicant has documented that the structure is incapable of supporting another antenna. This information was reaffirmed by MPC's consultant.
