Document Description
The project is a use permit application to construct, operate, and maintain an unmanned commercial wireless telecommunications facility within a 45-foot by 45-foot ground lease area on a parcel developed with a single-family residence and associated residential accessory structures. The lease area would be graded, enclosed by a 6-foot-tall chain-link fence with green privacy slats, and would be lighted by two L.E.D. work lights, not to exceed 100 watts with motion sensor control. Proposed improvements include a 154-foot-tall monopole tower with three four-sector antenna mounts designed to accommodate up to sixteen (16) antennas and twelve (12) remote radio units (RRU’s) per sector. Additional mounts and ancillary equipment such as surge suppressors and microwave dishes would be installed on the tower as well to augment the wireless telecommunication service. In total, the facility would accommodate up to forty-eight (48) panel antennas, thirty-six (36) RRUs and various other ancillary equipment. Two of the three antenna array mounts and area within ground lease would be reserved for future carriers to co-locate at the facility. Two outdoor equipment cabinets and a 30-kilowatt diesel backup generator with a 210-gallon diesel fuel tank would also be constructed within the lease area on a proposed 21-foot by 11-foot concrete slab. Improvements outside of the lease area would include utilities to serve the installation, including a small transformer on a 54-inch by 52-inch prefabricated concrete slab, fiber, and electric utility lines; construction of an approximately 450-foot all-weather gravel access driveway within a 15-foot-wide access and utility easement where there is an existing unimproved driveway; an approximately 630-foot underground utility run from an existing power pole and transformer; and an approximately 680-foot fiber-optic cable run to a new point of connection on an existing fiber optic cable at Camino Real. Excavators, backhoes, bulldozers, trenchers, dump trucks, cranes and similar equipment could all be used for site preparation activities and construction, including clearing, grubbing, and approximately 235 cubic yards of grading, trenching, excavation and backfilling for installation of all facility structures, ancillary equipment, fencing, utilities installation (electricity and fiber optic), and driveway construction. The applicant is requesting an exception from the landscape requirements of the Shasta County Code which requires landscaping to be provided and maintained for the life of the facility to screen any ground structures or equipment.
