After reviewing the plans, I determined that the project is minor and will not require review by the Architectural Review Commission. Your plans are approved based on the following findings, and subject to conditions. Findings: 1. As conditioned, the facility modification complies with the site development and performance standards of the City’s wireless telecommunications ordinance. 2. As conditioned, the facility modification is considered camouflaged, as the six (6) replacement panel antennas will be flush-mounted, painted to match the light standard pole, and are situated at their lowest functional height to accomplish coverage objectives. 3. The proposed facility modification can be installed and maintained without jeopardy to persons or property within or adjacent to the site and without damage to the resources of the site a nd its surroundings because the wireless antennas maintain a significant setback from neighboring residential properties and the emissions from the facility fall far below Federal limits. 4. The project is exempt from environmental review under Class 1, Section 15301 (Existing Facilities), of the CEQA Guidelines. Conditions: ARC MI 57-10 (Verizon) 190 Santa Rosa Street Page 2 1. The applicant shall construct the project so as to substantially conform to plans dated August 17, 2010. Any change to approved design, colors, materials, or other conditions of approval must be approved by the Director or Architectural Review Commission, as deemed appropriate. 2. All replacement panel antennas and mounting hardware shall be painted to match the existing light standard pole, subject to the approval of the Community Development Director. My action is final unless appealed to the Architectural Review Commission within 10 calendar days of the date of this letter. Any person aggrieved by the decision may file an appeal. Appeal forms are available in the Community Development Department. The fee for filing an appeal is $257 and must accompany the appeal documentation. Appeals will be scheduled for the first available Architectural Review Commission meeting date. If an appeal is filed, you will be notified by mail of the date and time of the hearing. The Community Development Director’s approval expires after three years if construction has not started. On request prior to the expiration of the original approval, the Community Development Director may grant a single, one-year extension. If you have any questions regarding this letter, or if you need additional information, please contact Tyler Corey at (805) 781-7169.
