DEPARTMENT HEAD'S APPROVAL: Grant Fernelius, Community Development Director CITY MANAGER'S APPROVAL: No comments to supplement this report Comments attached 15.99 Deadline: November 3, 2014 6/ Recommendation: Adopt the attached Resolution, approving the request as submitted. Legislative History: October 21, 2014: The Planning Commission considered the request and held a public hearing. No testimony was given. The Planning Commission recommended unanimous approval consistent with the staff recommendation. Financial Impact: Not applicable — unlike many other telecommunications requests, this one is on private property and does not require a lease amendment. Explanation: T- Mobile Central LLC is requesting a Special Use Permit to allow installation of three additional telecommunications antenna on the existing telecommunications monopole located at 348/350 1St Street SW. T- Mobile currently has nine antennas at this location and wishes to increase their antenna amount to 12. All telecommunication uses are specially permitted uses in New Brighton. Because T- Mobile's original approval only allowed for nine antennas, a new Special Use Permit must be approved to increase the amount. No substantive changes will be made to the ground equipment or lease space on the Wolkerstrofer property. Unlike many of the telecommunications antenna/towers in the City, these tower /antennas are located on privately owned property verses located on City water towers or on publicly -owned property such as City parks. The original tower was constructed in 2006 and is located at the northwest corner of the property. A full analysis of the applicable special use standards of Zoning Code Sections 4 -600 and 8 -130 are provided in the written Planning Report. To summarize, staff finds all criteria have been met based on the five findings specified in paragraph eight of the Resolution. The following are attached: A) Resolution, B) Planning Report & Exhibits dated 10/15/2014. Costs and Funding: Not applicable ,�jv,u_ 6XWVd_(,L- Janice Gundlach Planning Coordinator
