Document Description
The project consists of the following entitlement requests:
• A Conditional Use Permit to allow a new wireless communication facility in the Agricultural Residential 2 (AR-2) zoning district.
• A Special Development Permit to allow the proposed project to deviate from the following development standards:
• Maximum Height (Section 3.6.7.A, Table 3.6.2): Maximum height allowed for a new Group 1 WCF is 55 feet. As proposed, the wireless communication tower would be 110 feet.
• Separation- Group 1 Zone Property- Minimum: Three times height of tower at 110 feet, 330-foot separation from Group 1 zoned property is required. As proposed, the WCF would be 125 feet from a residential zoned property (AR-2) to the south and east, and 204 feet from residential zoned property to the north.
• A Design Review to determine substantial compliance with the Sacramento County Countywide Design Guidelines (Design Guidelines).
The project proposes the installation of a 110-foot-tall broadleaf stealth tree design wireless communication facility (WCF) within an overall lease area of approximately 40-feet by 40-feet (1,600± square feet). The WCF’s height will be 110-feet from the top of proposed antennas but will be 115-feet overall from the top of the broadleaf tree steel tower. The WCF will be located at the rear of the property, at least 200 feet from residential structures located on the property. The WCF will be equipped with twelve (12) panel antennas, twelve (12) RRUs (remote radio units), one (1) associated 160± square foot wireless equipment cabinet, and a 30kw (190-gallon) backup diesel generator. The antennas will be mounted on the WCF at 108.9-feet, 106 feet, and 103.3 feet above ground level. The WCF will be designed to support equipment for future wireless carriers at the 94-foot, 82-foot, and 70-foot heights. A 6-foot-high chain link fence with brown-colored privacy slats topped with three strand barbed wire will surround the proposed lease area which will contain both the proposed equipment as well as additional area for future collocation equipment cabinets and/or diesel generators. Out of the 1,600-square foot equipment area, 300-square feet is proposed to be used by AT&T Mobility for the proposed wireless facility. The remaining 1,300 square feet within the equipment area will be used for future collocation providers.
