<br />would remain. The removed antennas would then be replaced with two new antennas, which <br />would be relocated to a new height of 154 feet. <br /> <br />In order to make room for the two new proposed antennas at the 154 foot level, which is the <br />top of the water tower, Nextel will replace three of its existing antennas, currently located at <br />a height of 159 feet, with two new antennas that would be at a height of 158 feet. There are <br />no proposed changes to the existing ground equipment at the site. The result of this CUP <br />amendment would be a net reduction in the number of cell antennas located on this water <br />tower. <br /> <br />Background <br /> <br />When the lease agreements for the Sprint antennas and for the Nextel antennas were <br />approved, Sprint and Nextel were separate companies. Those two companies have since <br />merged, which is why they are able to reach an agreement on the proposed antenna <br />rearrangement. A CUP amendment is not needed to remove the three Nextel antennas and <br />replace them with the two Nextel antennas because they can replace equipment within their <br />leased area. A CUP amendment is only needed if they increase the total number of antennas <br />or move the antennas to area on the water tower outside of the approved lease area. The <br />Sprint antennas would be moving outside of their previously approved leased area, which is <br />the primary reason for this CUP amendment request. <br /> <br />In 1996, N extel was granted a conditional use permit to install three fifteen foot antennas on <br />the side of the City water tower at 1230 Red Fox Road. In 1998, they received permission <br />from the City, via a lease agreement amendment, to remove these antennas and replace them <br />with nine panel antennas, each nine feet long, to be located at the top of the water tower and <br />connected to the guard rail. These antennas were at a height of 159 ft. <br /> <br />In 2000, Sprint was granted a conditional use permit to install antennas on the side of the <br />water tower at heights between 60 and 100 feet. Also in 2000, the City adopted an ordinance <br />amendment and master landscape plan (planning Case #00-028) addressing the use of cell <br />antennas on City water towers, which regulates the placement of antennas on City water <br />towers (Section 1325.09). <br /> <br />2.
