The <br />City issues building permits for satellite dishes considered accessory <br />structures. Local authorities may regulate to insure the safety and <br />welfare of the public. It appears that the standards set forth in our <br />zoning code would deal with matters of public safety. It also assures that <br />a buslnoss us© could not be made as it is a conditional use under <br />residential zoning# considered accessory to the principal use. The <br />structure meets the required setbacks for a 60* antenna. Does the Planning <br />Commission feel that there are other considerations dealing with public <br />safety that have not yet been addressed? Existing trees and the placement <br />adjacent to the house will provide screening for the single antenna <br />structure. Are there other conditions that should be considered regarding <br />visual impact of the tower on the neighborhood? Staff has asked the <br />applicant to confirm that the private covenants of this subdivision allow <br />such a structure. Mr. Wessels has confirmed that the covenants would not <br />prohibit the antenna structure. <br />Staff Reo dation - <br />To approve a conditional use permit application for Kenneth J. Wessels <br />for the property located at 1245 Woodhill Avenue# that would permit the <br />installation of a free standing# 60’ high antenna for a private/hobby use <br />based on the following findings: <br />1. Proposed antenna structure meets the required setback from all <br />property lines. <br />2. The visual impact of the antenna structure is lessened by the <br />adjacent house structure and existing mature trees. <br />3. The antenna structure# while not in use# will be lowered to the <br />tree levels# thereby lessening the impact upon the adjacent <br />residential properties. <br />4. A licensed erojneer has certified structural soundness per <br />specifications for installation of the free-standing antenna. <br />Approval is subject to the following conditions: <br />1. A building permit will be issued for the installation of the <br />antenna structure upon the City's issuing a Certificate of Occupancy <br />for the principal residence. <br />2, Per specification Sheets submitted with application# the City will <br />ask that anti-climb sections be installed to prevent other persons <br />from entering the property and climbing the 60' structure. <br />3. Applicant is advised that when planning for the utilities to <br />serve the residence# the utilities be installed away from the proposed <br />antenna site. <br />.A:_ _ _ <br />r <br />•t <br />J <br />: . <br />Zoning Fils <br />November IS <br />Page 3 of 3 <br />4.
