Planning Cases <br />A. CU2014-001 Consideration of a 150 -foot Cell Tower at 4860 Mustang Circle <br />Applicant: FAC Holdings LLC/Dell-Comm <br />Address: 4860 Mustang Circle <br />Planning Associate Heller explained the applicant and property owner, FAC Holdings (Dell - <br />Comm is the business operating here), is requesting approval of a conditional use permit to <br />construct a 150 foot cell tower on their property at 4860 Mustang Circle. Dell -Comm designs, <br />furnishes and installs telecommunications systems, applications and services. Dell -Comm has <br />been in business since 1990 and do infrastructure cabling, fiber optic cabling, outside plant <br />cabling, security solutions and telephone systems. <br />Associate Heller discussed the conditional use permit in detail with the Commission noting the <br />proposed lot was heavily wooded. <br />Staff recommended approval of Resolution 1013-14. <br />Chair Stevenson asked if the tower would be required to have a light. <br />Darrin Wixo, Dell -Comm, explained that under FAA regulations, towers under 200 feet are not <br />required to have a light. <br />Commissioner Love questioned if Dell -Comm had considered using any aesthetics to improve <br />the appearance of the cell tower. <br />Darin stated he may consider this; however, the final determination would be with Dell -Comm <br />as they would be building the tower. <br />Commissioner Birken did not believe a cell tower in this area would be an eyesore due to the <br />number of large trees on the property. Commissioner Rundle agreed. <br />MOTION/SECOND: Commissioner Love/Commissioner Carvelli-Yu.
