Document Description
A Coastal Development permit is required for a cellular communications facility in the Agricultural Exclusive (AE) zone within the Coastal Zone. Furthermore, the Minor Generation and Distribution Facilities Use Type is conditionally permitted in the zone. The project will develop a wood faux water tower-style cellular facility not to exceed 60 feet in height. The site will house two sets of 8 foot cellular whip antennas at 28' elevation, one 2' diameter microwave ("planar") dish at +/- 24' and three 8"x12"x60" panel antennas at +/- 45 feet (these "mid-point" elevations are estimates and the actual height may vary by up to ten feet). The site will be located within a 3,600 square foot lease area which will be surrounded by a 6' chain link fence. A +/- 192 square foot equipment shed and a 500 gallon propane tank for back-up purposes will also be developed within the lease parcel. Day-to-day power will be provided by the A Building Permit and cumulative RF Study will be required of this applicant. The parcel is currently partially developed with a single-family home facing Moxon Lane, a barn and related agricultural outbuildings. The majority of the parcel is fenced grazing land.
