Summary
Copple: Briefed on the item's history, noting there has been no change in the request since the February
5, 2013 Planning & Zoning Commission meeting and the applicant's letter, agreeing to alter the tower
height from 120 feet to 100 feet. Summarized the proposed layout, including the screening plan; zoning
of surrounding properties; and the applicant's request for the use's right on the property for ten (10)
years, after which time a Specific Use Permit would be required. Explained the Future Land Use Plan
recommends Tollway uses for the property, the property is adjacent to the floodplain with residential uses
to the north of the floodplain, and that the current zoning allows for a maximum height of 40 feet.
Informed notification was given in accordance with state law, and the Planning Division received three
public hearing notice reply forms, with two being in opposition. Recommended denial.
Discussion
Peter Kavanagh (applicant): Explained why Verizon requested for the Commission to table the item
since it's February 5`h meeting. Reported that Verizon attempted to locate the tower within the Artesia
subdivision, but was unsuccessful.
McClung: Voiced concerns with location, as First Street will be a major thoroughfare and the tower will
more than likely never be removed.
Carlin: Concerned about the height of the pole and that Council may deny the request.
Motioned by Carlin, seconded by McClung to deny the request to rezone 0.3t acre, located on the north
side of First Street, 1,500f feet east of Legacy Drive from Agricultural (A) to Planned Development -
Agricultural (PD-A). Motion passed 5-1 with Senkel in opposition. Senkel noted is support of the
location, as the adjacent floodplain offers a buffer to the residential uses north of the floodplain. Also
noted the property may be difficult for any use other than what is proposed.
5. Possibly direct Town Staff to schedule topic(s) for discussion at a future meeting.
Discussion
McClung: Inquired into the status of his request on irrigation standards.
DeMattia: Inquired about the Town's Strategic Planning meeting and the Town's 2013 goals. Asked if
department goals and/or implementation of the Comprehensive Plan are incorporated into the 2013 goals.
Asked staff to offer the Commission an opportunity to view the Town's 2013 goals document.
Copple: Assured he would offer the Commission a copy of the Town's 2013 goals, explaining that some
department goals and implementation of the Comprehensive Plan is included in the document.
6. Adjourn
Motioned by Moody, seconded by McClung to adjourn. Motion approved 6-0.
