Specific Use Permit for Temporary Telecommunications Poles /Antennas at
the N. White Chanel & Dove Street Water Tower Site
REQUEST: The City of Southlake is requesting approval of a Specific Use Permit to erect
temporary telecommunication poles at the N. White Chapel Blvd and Dove Street
water tower site. The property is located at 2300 N. White Chapel Blvd.
The City currently has antennas of six (6) different telecommunications providers on
the water tower at this location. Telecommunications antennas on city water towers
are exempt from zoning requirements provided an agreement has been approved by
City Council. However, during the next four to six months, the City will be repainting
the water towers and these antennas will have to be removed from the water tower to
facilitate the repainting. This request for an SUP to erect temporary
telecommunications poles stems from the City's contractual obligations with the
telecommunications providers for relocation onto temporary poles on site for the
duration of the painting work. To this end, the City is requesting the erection of 6
temporary telecommunications poles to most efficiently accommodate all antennas for
a duration of six (6) months, starting October 2006. At the end of the repainting
project, the antennas will be remounted onto the water tower and the temporary
telecommunications poles removed from the site.
The temporary poles will be approximately 90 feet in height with 5 -foot high antennas
mounted on them. The reason for the multiple poles is due to the signal obstruction
that occurs from the existing water tower. Attached with this memo is a copy of the
letter from the Public Works Department to adjoining property owners informing
them of the upcoming painting project.
ACTION NEEDED: 1. Conduct a public hearing
2. Consider the SUP request
