Zoning File #1588 October 5, 1990 Page 5 <br />structures within the conditional use permit for public ser ice <br />structures applied for by applicant. Standards are not <br />applicable. The applicant has referenced the antenna as an <br />accessory use refering Section 10.20, Subdivision 4 (H). In this <br />Section only antennas attached to a principle or accessory <br />structure is permitted. There is no mention of free standing <br />antennas. <br />Staff would suggest that Council members refer to sections <br />of the ordinance noted above. Council members may have other <br />concerns. It is the opinion of staff that the current zoning <br />code does not permit a free standing antenna, a permitted or <br />principle use via conditional use permit on a property that <br />already contains another principle use. The code lacks <br />appropriate standards for this type of structure. The section <br />specifically applied under by applicant (Section 10.20, <br />Subdivision 3 (D) - public service structures) relates to <br />compatibility with architectural design in immediate <br />neighborhood, to promote the general welfare.
