Motion: Member Wietecki moved, seconded by Member Harms, to continue the application, for PF 2924, to the August 13, 1997 Planning Commission meeting because the applicant was not present. Motion carried 6-0. 6(d)Planning File 2929. Request for a Conditional Use Permit, by C B Commercial, to allow the placement of a commercial communications tower on a non-City tower site in a B-6 Zoning District, located at 2582 Long Lake Road. Chairperson Wietecki opened the hearing and requested a summary of the staff report by Dennis Welsch. Welsch reviewed the staff report and described the staff findings and a recommendation of approval. John Hollenbeck, CB Commercial, reviewed the technical feasibility and noted that the applicant can abide by conditions in the staff report. John Goedeke asked if a tower was a permitted use in a B-6 zone and whether the technical feasibility precluded placement on existing towers. Member Mulder asked if other cell locations are anticipated. John Hollenbeck explained CB Commercial’s interest in using a third tower owned by the City on the Water Authority site. No public comment was offered. Chairperson Wietecki closed the hearing.
