RE: Velocitel (representing AT&T Mobility) — Conditional Use Permit Amendment
Proposal
Velocitel (representing AT&T Mobility) has applied for an amendment to their conditional use
permit to replace and add antennas to an existing monopole tower. The project does not change
the tower's height or any of the existing equipment shelters. The three new antennas will be
mounted at the 87-foot elevation of the 120-foot high monopole. The size of the new antennas
will be similar to the width and height of the existing six antennas. The existing monopole is
located on property at 10475 Kimbro Avenue, owned by Jerome and Helen Goulet.

Application Received: August 26, 2014

Planning Commission Review
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on September 22, 2014, on Velocitel's amend-
ment to their conditional use permit to replace and add three antennas to an existing monopole
tower. The project does not change the tower's height or any of the existing equipment shelters.
Blake Ransom, representing Velocitel and AT&T Mobility, attended the Planning Commission
meeting.
The Planning Commission unanimously recommended (9-to-0 vote) to the City Council the ap-
proval of Velocitel's amendment to City Resolution No. 2011-154, which approved the installa-
tion of six antennas on the existing monopole and the construction of a 12-foot by 28-fooi
equipment building at 10475 Kimbro Avenue South. City Council approval of this amendmenl
will permit the applicant to replace existing antennas and add three additional antennas for a
total of nine AT&T Mobility antennas on the existing monopole at 10475 Kimbro Avenue South,
subject to the conditions recommended by the Commission.
An excerpt from the Planning Commission's unapproved minutes for their September 22, 2014,
meeting and a resolution with conditions recommended by the Commission are attached.
Background
The existing 120-foot monopole and the first equipment building were constructed on this property
in July 1998. Sprint Spectrum was the communication company that initiated the construction of
the monopole and equipment building. Nextel Communications co-located their antennas and con-
structed their equipment building in 2004. In 2011, AT&T co-located their six antennas on the exist-
ing monopole and constructed a 12-foot by 28-foot equipment building.
City Resolution No. 2011-154, which approved AT&T's conditional use permit, will need to be
amended since three more antennas are proposed to be added to this communication tower.
Planning Considerations
Zoning Ordinance Criteria
The Electro Magnetic Communications Facilities (EMCF) ordinance allows freestanding anten-
nas in agriculturally zoned property by conditional use permit. This existing monopole was origi-
nally approved by the City on March 18, 1998. Approval of AT&T's conditional use permit was
subject to the provisions of the Zoning Ordinance and the conditions stipulated in City Resolu-
tion No. 2011-154.

house and machine shed. There is a windbreak of trees along the north side of the private drive
and extends to the entrance of the machine shed. The rest of the property north and east of the
farmstead is Goulet's farmland. An aerial photo of this area is shown below.

The existing monopole and equipment building is located on the northeast side of the wind-
break. The monopole was designed to accommodate more than one antenna array. The mono-
pole and its foundation were designed to account for soil conditions and local wind loading
guidelines. The original leased area for the monopole and equipment building is a 50-foot by 50-
foot area. The lease area proposed by previous conditional use permit approvals required the
leasable area to be enlarged to accommodate the third user. A security fence eight feet in height
surrounds the area that is leased by the various tenants.
A drawing showing the existing and proposed equipment buildings, monopole, and generator
within the lease area is below:

The existing monopole is 120 feet in height. The original installer of the monopole mounted their
antennas at the top of the pole. The second wireless communication carrier mounted their an-
tennas at the 100-foot elevation. AT& T mounted their antennas at the 85-foot elevation.
An illustration of the vertical elevation for the monopole and photos of the existing equipment
buildings are shown below.

Equipment Building
Located at the base of the monopole are three existing equipment buildings, one building for
each of the three wireless communication companies that currently use the monopole for their
wireless network systems. All buildings are constructed of an aggregate-exposed concrete block
material. Housed inside the equipment buildings are electrical and telephone lines used in
transmitting and receiving equipment for wireless communication systems.
Minor modifications will be made inside AT&T's equipment building to accommodate the pro-
posed infrastructure changes.
Landscaping
Landscaping exists around the lease area and the proposed improvements will not require addi-
tional landscaping. The property owner does not want trees planted on the north or east sides of
the monopole site because the trees would encroach into the property owner's tillable acreage.
City Department and Advisory Commission Comments
This application was distributed to other city departments for comment. The only responses re-
ceived were from the Engineering Department and Building Division. Neither expressed any
concerns for this application.
Public Hearing Notices
The public hearing notice was mailed to 14 property owners who are within 500 feet of the pro-
posed monopole site on the Goulet's property and published in the South Washington County
Bulletin on September 10, 2014.
Recommendation
That the City Council accepts the Planning Commission's recommendation granting an amend-
ment to City Resolution No. 2011-154, which allowed AT&T to install six antennas on the exist-
ing monopole and construct a 12-foot by 28-foot equipment building at 10475 Kimbro Avenue
South. City Council approval of this amendment will permit the applicant to replace six existing
AT&T Mobility antennas and add three additional antennas for a total of nine AT&T Mobility an-
tennas on the existing monopole at 10475 Kimbro Avenue South. The conditions approving the
conditional use permit amendment recommended by the Planning Commission were inserted in
the attached resolution for Council's approval.
