The communication tower or communication antenna does not exceed a <br />total height of thirty-five (35') feet. <br />3. The communication tower or communication antenna is not located in a <br />required front, side or street side setback area. <br />4. The applicant demonstrates that: <br />1. Existing towers and buildings do not afford the applicant the <br />technological ability to provide service to the service area of the applicant or service provider; <br />and <br />2. It is not technologically possible to bifurcate the geographical <br />boundaries of the proposed service area in order to avoid the necessity for a freestanding <br />communication tower or communication antenna. <br />H. Communication towers and communication antennas processed under <br />subsection G shall be reviewed and approved by the Planning Commission using the <br />Conditional Use Permit provisions of Section 18.58.060. <br />F. New freestanding communication towers and communication antennas may be <br />located on public property including city, school district, community college and other public <br />property that is zoned for residential uses provided such communication towers and <br />communication antennas do not exceed an overall height of eighty-five feet (85') and are <br />approved by the Planning Commission using the Architectural and Site Plan Review provisions <br />of Section 18.58.030. When located within 300 feet of residentially zoned and used property, <br />such freestanding communication towers and communication antennas shall be stealth and be <br />approved by the Planning Commission using the Conditional Use Permit provisions of Section <br />18.58.060. <br />Section 18.39.050 Performance and construction standards for communication towers <br />and communication antennas <br />A. Wind Loads. All communication towers and communication antennas shall, at a <br />minimum, be designed and constructed so as to withstand a wind speed of seventy mph for <br />those towers and antennas with heights of fifteen feet or less or one hundred mph for those <br />towers and antennas with heights in excess of fifteen feet. Existing communication towers and <br />communication antennas shall be modified to meet these requirements prior to the issuance of <br />any permit or other authorization to modify them, including, without limitation, any request to <br />modify the height or include additional antennas or providers <br />B. Seismic Design Requirements. Communication towers and communication <br />antennas shall, at a minimum, be designed to comply with requirements for seismic Zone 4 <br />C. Setbacks. Setbacks for communication towers and communication antennas <br />shall be measured from the base of the tower, antenna or protruding building structure at the <br />base of the tower, whichever is closest to the property line, to the property line of the parcel on <br />which it is located. For purposes of measuring setbacks from residentially zoned property, <br />distances shall be measured from the base of the tower, antenna or protruding building <br />ORANGE\MXM\19901.1 - 4 - <br />
