Without a City policy for de�ermining when or whether Roseville, as <br />a praperty owner, is interested in siting telecommunication infrastructure on City-owned <br />property, the City is unable to answer this question as it applies specifically to Acorn Park. <br />Since Rosevill.e �s the land owner in this request and remains uncertain of its interest in the <br />construction of a monopole facility in Acarn Park, the City intends to withdraw its support of the <br />land use application. Moreover, Roseviile will not be entering into any l�asE agreements on the <br />Acorn Park property at this time. <br />As Clearwire is the nained as the applicant for the requested approval of a telecommunication <br />tower as a conditional use in Acorn Park, I would advise Clearwire to formal�y wit�draw the <br />application. The current State-mandated deadline for City Council action on this request is April <br />7, 2010. If City staff does not receive a written statemeni of the intent to withdra�v the <br />application, the City �ouncil is prepared to deny the proposed conditional use at its meefing of <br />1Vlarch 29, 2010 — the City Cauncil's final meeting before ihe April 7th deadline. <br />I apologize �ar any inconvenience resulting from the City's indirectian. Please don't hesitate to <br />call me at 651-792-7021 if you have ar�y questions or concerns. <br />Sincerely, <br />CITY F OSEVII,�E �' <br />� '�''��� <br />Wil iam J.
