Mr. Langston said it is basically a hole in the plat. It allows us to subdivide in the future.

A.2.      Potential Action Item – (See IV. A.1.)

 

Commissioner Kevin Tominey motioned to approve File # SUB-2009.19, Preliminary Plat for Daybreak Village 4 A Plat 3 Subdivision, located at approximately 11070 South 4900 West, Kennecott Land Company (applicant), with the 1 staff recommendation.  Commissioner Paul Pugmire seconded the motion.

B.1.      File # CUP-2009.04, Conditional Use Permit Application to install roof mounted wireless communication antennas and related equipment on the Rio Tinto/Kennecott Corporate building, located at 4700 West along Daybreak Parkway, Mike Hansen (applicant).

 

City Planner Greg Schindler reviewed background information on this item.  Mike Hansen, on behalf of T-Mobile, has submitted a Conditional Use Permit Application seeking approval to install two wireless communication antennas and related equipment on the roof of the Rio Tinto/Kennecott Corporate building located at 4700 West along Daybreak Parkway.  The application has been reviewed by staff and has been found to comply with the Wireless Communication Chapter, Section 17.112 of the City’s Zoning Ordinance.

 

Staff Findings:

·         AT&T received City approval and currently has similar existing antennas and related equipment located on the north side of the Rio Tinto/Kennecott building.

·         All equipment is proposed to be installed within an enclosed mechanical room or “penthouse” located on the roof of the building.

·         Antennas not located within the mechanical penthouse are proposed to be painted in order to match the building color and pointed along the west side of the roof so as to be located in the least conspicuous location as viewed from Daybreak Parkway.

·         Section 17.112 of the City’s Ordinance is pending a text amendment, though this application is not affected by the proposed text amendment.

·         Kennecott is the sole property owner within 300 feet of the proposal.

·         The proposed application complies with current City ordinances and will have little to no impact on nearby property owners.

 

Based on the findings and conclusions by staff, Staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve the Conditional Use Permit, with the listed requirement.

 

Chairman Linda Auger asked if the applicant is present. The applicant was not present.

 

Chairman Linda Auger opened the Public Hearing to comments. There were none. She closed the Public Hearing.

 

Commissioner Pugmire commented of their recent awareness of recent applications and the way this application is presented is the way to do it correctly.
