Summary of the decision
SE-19-06-057 — Eco-Site
Request: Special Exception in the IND-2/IND-3 zoning district to construct a 145 ft. high communications cell tower to be camouflaged as a pine tree (monopine tower) with a single user at initial construction.
Decision: Approved
Hearing: "Staff explained that the proposal was different from many past cell tower applications, in that the nearest residence was .96 miles away. The request required no variances for any separation distances. If the applicant had a second user signed to the tower, a Special Exception would not be required. Staff noted that the Public Works Development Engineering Division did have a condition regarding revising the drainage easement it holds over the pond to ensure that the tower does not interfere with it. Staff concluded by stating that it had not received any commentaries in favor or opposition to the request.
