Document Description
The University of California South Coast Research and Extension Center (SCREC) proposes to construct two new cellular phone tower sites adjacent to an existing cell phone tower. Each tower site would include a phone tower, antennas at the top of the tower, and an equipment area to serve the proposed tower. Each new tower would be constructed to mimic the palm tree appearance of the existing cellular phone tower and would be 60 feet tall to match the existing tower and provide the desired telecommunication service capability. At the base of each tower, the proposed project would consist of fenced enclosures of approximately 800 square feet containing the towers and up to 6 equipment cabinets for the electronic components associated with the communication transmissions. The metal equipment cabinets would be mounted on a concrete slab approximately 15 feet from the antennae tower and screened from view by the use of a chainlink fence with green-colored vinyl slats. For occasional maintenance purposes at each new site, locked pedestrian gates would be installed on Modieska Road and Irvine Boulevard.
