The result of these discussions were to recommend that the higher antennas (APT) be located on the water tower and the lower antennas (U. S. West New Vector) relocate their tower to the southern edge of the site. Staff has advised representatives from both companies of this proposal about these alternatives. APT is in discussions with Eden Prairie regarding a possible lease for the use of the tower. U. S. West has advised me that it is feasible to locate their tower in the southwest corner of the site (the fencing for the enclosure could begin 20 feet from the western property line and 10 feet from the southern property line). However, due to the topography and trees, the antennas would need to be located at two heights, approximately 78 feet for the southerly antennas and 90 feet for the northerly antennas. City ordinance requires that the tower be designed and constructed to permit co- location opportunity on any tower approved in the city. The City of Eden Prairie is in the process of amending their tower ordinance. One of the provisions of the proposed ordinance are that towers be located four feet away from the nearest residential property line for every one feet in height of the tower. Staff has reviewed the alternative proposal for the towers based on the City of Eden Prairie ordinance. Staff estimates that the relocated tower would be 385 feet from the nearest residential property. This would permit the location of a 96 foot tower on the site. The alternate proposal for the tower would be approximately 450 feet from the nearest residential structure. PROPOSAL /SUMMARY The applicant is proposing a 135 foot tall cellular communication galvanized finish, monopole design tower with nine directional antennas (APT) and twelve (12) directional antennas (U.S. West New Vector). A ten foot lighting rod extends above the tower. The applicant is proposing the lease of a 70 foot by 30 foot area of the site. Within this area, a 66 foot by 28 foot fenced enclosure is being proposed. The applicant is proposing an eight foot fence, which is permitted within industrial districts. Within the fenced enclosure is the tower and a bridge structure with five foot by three foot by three foot equipment cabinets on top and a 20 foot by 30 foot prefabricated equipment building which has an aggregate, neutral finish. The applicant proposes to use an all weather gravel surface within the enclosure. There is a water tower on Dell Road and Twilight Lane. The City of Eden Prairie will permit up to 4 leases on the tower with the commitment that the city of Chanhassen not put any towers adjacent to their city. Even if the APT tower were to be located on the Eden Prairie tower, the U.S. West American Portable Telecom U.S. West New Vector March 24, 1997 Page 3 NewVector would not be able to locate there because of their requirements for the tower (too high). Due to the low building heights in the city, and especially along Highway 5, there are minimal opportunities to locate antennas on existing buildings. It is staff's opinion that additional towers will be requested and we could not in good faith make a commitment to no towers adjacent to their city. The site for the proposed telecommunications tower is currently covered by an existing mix of deciduous trees. The elevation of Quattro Drive at the entrance to the site is approximately 920 elevation. The parking lot elevation west of the building is approximately 930 feet. The location of the proposed tower is at approximately 934 elevation. The railroad tracks north of the site are at approximately 938 elevation. The house pad directly north of the site is at approximate 950 elevation. The single family homes to the north rise above the site, looking over the railroad tracks. During the winter months, the site is highly visible form the properties to the north. The tower shall be minimally visible from Highway 5. According to ordinance, screening is required for the base equipment and the tower must be designed to blend in with the surrounding area. North and west of the tower location, existing vegetation shall screen the site. The applicant is proposing the planting of 14 service berry shrubs on the north, east and south sides of the enclosure. At maturity, the shrubs should fill in to help screen the base equipment. Staff is recommending approval of the conditional use permit/site plan for the wireless telecommunication tower subject to conditions. Most importantly, staff is requiring that this tower be designed and constructed to permit the co- location of another user on the tower. BACKGROUND In November 1996, the City of Chanhassen adopted Ordinance 259 pertaining to towers and antennas. This ordinance provided criteria for the design and location of wireless telecommunication facilities in the city. The city has been advised by wireless telecommunication companies that this area of the city is a dead zone for current service users. Part of the impetus for revision of the tower and antenna ordinance was this dead zone for wireless telecommunication. The city recently reviewed applications for a conditional use permits for a wireless communication tower on property along Highway 5. In order to minimize the proliferation of these towers in the city, the ordinance has a co- location requirement as part of the design and approval of these facilities. As a condition of approval for this tower, staff is recommending that the applicant commit to allow for the shared use of the tower. American Portable Telecom U.S. West New Vector March 24, 1997 Page 4 The City Council reviewed both applications for conditional uses for the telecommunication towers at 78 and 80 West 78 Street. The Council tabled the items to permit the applicants to present a joint application at the site at 7660 Quattro Drive. The City Council reviewed the APT proposed development at their February 24, 1997. They tabled the item to permit the application for the U. S. West NewVector Group to be reviewed at the same time and to determine if either was a preferable site. In addition, the City Council wanted the applicant to continue to investigate additional sites for locating the tower. The City Council reviewed the proposed development at 80 West 80 Street at their February 10, 1997 meeting. The Council tabled the item, requesting that the applicant provide additional documentation regarding the search for a tower site. Specifically, the applicant was to address the feasibility of locating the tower on properties to the east of the proposed site, including the water tower in Eden Prairie. FINDINGS When approving a conditional use permit, the city must determine the capability of a proposed development with existing and proposed uses. The general issuance standards of the conditional use Section 20 -232, include the following 12 items: Will not be detrimental to or endanger the public health, safety, comfort, convenience or general welfare of the neighborhood or the city. Finding: The proposed tower should not endanger the public health, safety or welfare of the city. 2. Will be consistent with the objectives of the city's comprehensive plan and this chapter. Finding: The proposed use is consistent with the city's comprehensive plan and generally complies with city ordinance requirements. 3. Will be designed, constructed, operated and maintained so to be compatible in appearance with the existing or intended character of the general vicinity and will not change the essential character of that area. Finding: The proposed tower complies with city ordinance requirements and is compatible with the character of the area. American Portable Telecom U.S. West New Vector March 24, 1997 Page 5 4. Will not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or planned neighboring uses. Finding: The proposed tower will not be hazardous to existing or planned neighboring uses. 5. Will be served adequately by essential public facilities and services, including streets, police and fire protection, drainage structures, refuse disposal, water and sewer systems and schools; or will be served adequately by such facilities and services provided by the persons or agencies responsible for the establishment of the proposed use. Finding: The proposed development is provided with adequate public services. 6. Will not create excessive requirements for public facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community. Finding: The proposed development will not require excessive public services. 7. Will not involve uses, activities, processes, materials, equipment and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any persons, property or the general welfare because of excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare, odors, rodents, or trash. Finding: The proposed tower should not create conditions that are detrimental to persons property or the general welfare of the community. 8. Will have vehicular approaches to the property which do not create traffic congestion or interfere with traffic or surrounding public thoroughfares. Finding: The proposed development will not interfere with traffic circulation. 9. Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of solar access, natural, scenic or historic features of major significance. Finding: The proposed development will not destroy or damage natural, scenic, or historic features. 10. Will be aesthetically compatible with the area. Finding: The proposed tower will be aesthetically compatible with the area. 11. Will not depreciate surrounding property values. American Portable Telecom U.S. West New Vector March 24, 1997 Page 6 Finding: The proposed development should not depreciate surrounding property values. 12. Will meet standards prescribed for certain uses as provided in this article. Finding: The proposed development will meet standards established for communication towers. The following revision must be made to the plans: The applicant shall document that the tower is designed, structurally, electrically, and in all respects, to accommodate both the applicant's antennas and comparable antennas for at least one additional user. Towers must be designed to allow for future rearrangement of antennas upon the tower and to accept antennas mounted at varying heights. • A letter of intent committing the tower owner and his or her successors to allow the shared use of the tower if an additional user agrees in writing to meet reasonable terms and conditions for shared use shall be submitted to the city. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the following motion: "The City Council approves conditional use permit 96 -6 for a telecommunication tower and associated equipment, at 7660 Quattro Drive subject to the following conditions: The APT antennas shall be relocated to the Eden Prairie water tower on Dell Road, unless a reasonable lease agreement cannot be reached with the City of Eden Prairie. 2. Barbed wire at the top of the fence shall not be permitted. 3. The applicant shall document that the tower is designed, structurally, electrically, and in all respects, to accommodate both the applicant's antennas and comparable antennas for at least one additional user. Towers must be designed to allow for future rearrangement of antennas upon the tower and to accept antennas mounted at varying heights. 4. A letter of intent committing the tower owner and his or her successors to allow the shared use of the tower if an additional user agrees in writing to meet reasonable terms and conditions for shared use shall be submitted to the city. American Portable Telecom U.S. West New Vector March 24, 1997 Page 7 5. The tower site be relocated to the southwest corner of the site and be arranged such that any enclosed building structures shall be located on the north side of the tower. 6. The applicant shall verify any significant trees that will be removed to accommodate the telecommunication facility." ATTACHMENTS 1. Development Review Application 2. Site Plan 3.

(Steve Berquist left the meeting at this point and did not vote on the following items.) CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT REQUEST AND SITE PLAN REVIEW FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF A 135 FT. TELECOMMUNICATIONS TOWER TO BE LOCATED AT 80 WEST 78 STREET. AMERICAN PORTABLE TELECOM. Roger Knutson: Mayor? If I could briefly address this issue. Mayor Mancino: Okay. Why don't we hold on one minute until people get situated. Roger Knutson: Mayor, members of the Council. Just a few minutes ago I had the opportunity to discuss this matter with the applicant's attorney, Mr. Coyle, and the applicant has indicated some interest in pursuing a site which has become known as the Quattro site for their tower. But they're willing to do this, and continue this matter tonight I believe if the Council would accommodate them by requesting a special Planning Commission meeting so that that Planning Commission could consider this new site. The Planning Commission could consider this new site in advance of your next City Council meeting to 17 City Council Meeting - March 10, 1997 kind of expedite the review of this in consideration of the fact that they've been working on this for some months now and this new site had just come up. If that's the case, I think if the Council would direct the Planning Commission to hold a special meeting, after notice can be given, as required, and so that can be done before this meeting. Is that correct Mr. Coyle? Mayor Mancino: Okay. First of all we need to make a motion to do that. Roger Knutson: Yes. Mayor Mancino: Okay. Secondly, do you want to make any comment publicly? Peter Coyle: Madam Mayor, members of the Council. Mayor Mancino: As long as it's not too long. Peter Coyle: It won't be any longer than it's taken to get to this point, I assure you of that. Mayor Mancino: Oh no. We could be here for a while. Peter Coyle: Mr. Knutson I think has accurately stated the condition. The concern for us is that, as he's indicated, we've been at this process for quite some time and we've really, I think cooperated as much as we could with your staff. Mayor Mancino: You have. Peter Coyle: And our fear is that if we follow the Council's lead at this point, and we are willing to do that, we not get roped up in a second round process where we find ourselves two months hence, having picked new fights with somebody else that we don't know about as we sit here tonight. And so all I'm looking for is a little bit of, not commitment by any means, but comfort if you will, that the process we're going to embark on is one that will allow us to be back here in two weeks with the ability to try to get some final action so we can get about the business of building this tower and building our business. And with that we would be pleased to have our application, or pending application laid aside and recrafted for purposes of this alternative site and we'll work with your staff on anticipation of that Planning Commission meeting. Mayor Mancino: Okay. I'm sure we can accommodate you. Thank you. Actually we have the Planning Commission Chair here who can help us with that. So we'd like to move to continue and have this reviewed by the Planning Commission prior to our March 24''' City Council meeting. And that could take place from 6:00 to 6:30. May I have a motion for continuation. Unless there are comments from Council members. Councilman Senn: Just a quick one. I mean basically, to respond just a little bit to his request. I mean you know, if you want kind of an opinion poll, I mean I'd still love to see the water tower. Quattro's definitely the next in the line as far as favored sites from my standpoint, so I would be very amenable to short cutting this to accomplish either one of those. I'm not preferable to the other two that have been suggested thus far. I don't know if everybody shares in that or not but I think, if that gives you the feeling you're looking for. I would move to continue this with the consent of the applicant and to ask the Planning Commission to schedule a special meeting prior to our next Council meeting so this item can be acted upon and closed out at that meeting. City Council Meeting - March 10, 1997 Councilman Mason: I will second that. Mayor Mancino: Thank you. Councilman Senn moved, Councilman Mason seconded to table, with the applicant's consent, the Conditional Use Permit request and Site Plan Review for a telecommunications tower at 80 West 78` Street. All voted in favor and the motion carried. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT REQUEST AND SITE PLAN REVIEW FOR A CELLULAR COMMUNICATIONS TOWER AT 78 WEST 79 STREET, U.S. WEST NEW VECTOR GROUP, INC. Roger Knutson: Mayor, first I have to ask the question. Is the same arrangement acceptable to your client sir? Jay Littlejohn: Well I'd also like to make a few comments... Roger Knutson: Certainly, Jay Littlejohn: My name's John Littlejohn. I represent Airtouch Cellular. U.S. West New Vector Group, Inc. It's 78 West 78` Street by the way. I just learned about this out in the hallway from Mr. Coyle 45 minutes ago, or maybe an hour ago and we don't have enough facts to know whether we could go there or not at this point. We, as I said, with the site that was at 80 West 78 Street. The one where the APT had that was up the way, as long as it will work for us, we would go on their site. The only problem that we have is that we would again ask that the approval of that site, since it's the intention of staff, and probably of the City, to make sure there are two users on that site, that a condition be imposed that a lease be entered into that involves equal cost sharing between the parties, and I don't care who the base landlord is or if we're joint tenants. It doesn't matter. It's so we're talking about the condition for approval, whether it be our condition or APT's condition. An actual lease in place allowing both users to be on the site, because we don't, as long as it tests right, and this is a little bit further west, or a little bit further east, but what I... and I'm not an engineer and don't have any testing equipment but it looks like it may well work so we are in favor of it, but we want to make sure that we can actually go there and that we're not going to be racked over the coals as... Mayor Mancino: And can you do that prior to the next City Council meeting? Jay Littlejohn: Complete our analysis of the site? Yes. We don't know who owns the site. I mean I need to get a title report and environmentals done and all those kind of due diligence that we would do before we require the site that I'm sure that APT could just turn over to us, depending on where they are in their negotiations. But as long as one of the conditions is, the City has found a site for us. I don't understand this personally because I have a list of sites that we went to and they said no to us and yes to you, so. But then again, so did Eden Prairie. Do you want to join our team? Mayor Mancino: Let me tell you know it's done. Jay Littlejohn: ...site in this city, I certainly will rely more on the Council's assistance because that's been very helpful but if we can go forward on that assumption, then I wouldn't have any objection to having our item tabled as well under the same conditions. 19 , City Council Meeting - March 10, 1997 Mayor Mancino: Okay, thank you very much. Then may I have a motion please? Councilman Senn: How about if I just ditto the first motion? Mayor Mancino: Okay. What was that ditto again? That motion? Councilman Senn: You just want to see if I can repeat it don't you? Mayor Mancino: Exactly. Word for word. Councilman Senn: Oh boy. I'll move to continue this matter with the consent of the applicant to the next City Council meeting and ask the Planning Commission to schedule a special meeting prior to that Council meeting so that at the next Council meeting we can have all the decisions made in relationship to permanent sites for these people. How's that? Mayor Mancino: Very nice. And a second? Councilman Engel: Second. Mayor Mancino: And you also stated that our first preference would be Eden Prairie water tower. Councilman Engel: I had one question. Is there a problem with the 76 foot tower going on the water tower or not? Mayor Mancino: I don't think anybody knows that at this point. Jay Littlejohn: We can't go on the water tower. Councilman Engel: Okay, that is. So we do know that? Then we know where we're at. We need a dual use tower on Quattro. Jay Littlejohn: We can go on a... Mayor Mancino: We've got a motion and a second. Thank you Mark for clarifying that. Councilman Senn moved, Councilman Engel seconded to table action, with the applicant's consent, on the Conditional Use Permit and Site Plan Review for a Cellular Communications Tower at 78 West 78` Street. All voted in favor and the motion carried. Councilman Senn: Madam Mayor, could we maybe take a 5 minute break? Mayor Mancino: Yes. At this point it's 10 till 9:00. Actually I was going to assess where we were at this point to see if we would be able to cover the rest of the agenda items. Not know how long it would take. And I don't think that we will have a problem. We were concerned about making decisions in the wee hours but I think we'll be fine so that those of you that are here that are on the agenda for the remaining second half of this City Council meeting, we'll get to your item. We'll take a 5 minute break and see you back at about 4 till 9:00. Thank you. 20 NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING SPECIAL PLANNING COMMISSION Monday, March 24, 1997 at 6:00 p.m. City Hall Council Chambers 690 Coulter Drive iUBJECT: Conditional Use Permit and Site Plan Review for a 135 Monopole Tower & Equipment Building ►PPLICANT: U.
