CBC has <br />been authorized by US West to act as their representative for planning and zoning matters. <br /> <br />PROPOSED USE <br /> <br />US West is proposing to construct a PCS Antenna array to the building on the noted property. <br /> <br />The antenna and subsequent attachment hardware will be designed following specifications as detennined <br />by the antenna manufacturer, These specifications take into account soils, local wind loading guidelines <br />and the type of equipment to be attached to the building. A safety factor is included in the design <br />parameters resulting in an antenna that typically exceeds local building code requirements. Please <br />reference the enclosed drawings and the specification sheet from Engineered Endeavors, Inc. Additionally, <br />the cell site will meet both FAA and FCC requirements for the location. Antenna color will be chosen to <br />blend in with the surrounding environment. <br /> <br />An unmanned prefabricated equipment pack measuring approximately 12' -0" x 9' -6" x 4' -0" will be <br />located in the building. The site will only require single phase 200 amp electrical service and T1 telephone <br />for utilities. 'Site photographs, a site plan, and a zoning drawing are attached. <br /> <br />ZONING AND CONDITIONAL USE STANDARDS <br /> <br />The site meets the City's standards for conditional uses. The antenna will be visually unobtrusive and go <br />unnoticed by the casual observer. <br /> <br />New wireless communication technology has developed rapidly in the past few years and many new <br />applications are vital to industrial and business uses. Business and industry will be seeking out and <br />adapting to these new technologies to remain competitive as the new Information Highway becomes a <br />reality. Having access to these emerging wireless technologies will be an important amenity for the <br />success of future business. <br />
