A motion was made to deny Resolution No. 15-028, (ZA15-034), Specific Use Permit for
a Telecommunications Tower, Antennas and Ancillary Buildings at 1604 Hart Street
subject to Staff Report dated September 8, 2015 and Specific Use Permit Review
Summary No. 6, dated September 1, 2015 and noting that based upon the information
Council heard this evening, it would not appear that this denial would encumber the
applicant from being able to provide service to their customers, this was more about an
argument of enhancing service potentially but it does not encumber their ability to
provide service and specifically on the first variance as a remin der the City’s Zoning
Ordinance provides that towers be located in such a manner that if the structure should
fall along its longest dimension it would remain within property boundaries and avoid
habitable structures, public streets, utility lines, and oth er telecommunication towers.
With this tower being 95 feet tall, Council was considering variances that would
ultimately be a 50 foot variance on the side property line, a 75 foot variance on the front
property line, a 65 foot fall zone variance, and a 90 foot fall zone variance from the
building. For those reasons, Mayor Pro Tem Williamson stated his motion to deny.
