ITEM 4 STAFF REPORT - PLANNING CITY OF TEMECULA PLANNING COMMISSION DATE OF MEETING: May 20, 2009 PREPARED BY: Betsy Lowrey, Case Planner PROJECT Planning Application Number PA08-0004, a Conditional Use SUMMARY: Permit/Antenna Facility Application for Verizon to reconstruct an existing wireless 68-foot cellular Monopine and co-locate two additional antenna arrays for a total of three antenna arrays, replace all 53 existing branches with enhanced branches/foliage and add 37 additional branches, provide additional landscaping including trees and vines to screen the project and related equipment located within a fenced enclosure, located on a 5.9 acre site owned by Rancho California Water District, on the east side of Meadows Parkway approximately 1000 feet north of Rancho California Road at 41280 Placer Lafite, formerly 31008 Rancho California Road RECOMMENDATION: Approve with Conditions CEQA: Categorically Exempt Section 15302, Class 2 Replacement or Reconstruction PROJECT DATA SUMMARY Name of Applicant: Paul Slotemaker of Realcom Associates and Jon Dohm of Crown Castle USA on behalf of Verizon General Plan Public Institution (PI) Designation: Zoning Designation: Public Institution (PI) Existing Conditions/ Land Use: Site: Public Institution (PI): A 5.49 acre site utilities site with two existing water towers and associated pumping equipment and two existing Monopines with associated cabinets and equipment North: Low Medium Residential (LM): Existing houses South: Low Medium Residential (LM): Existing houses East: Low Medium Residential (LM): Existing houses West: Low Medium Residential (LM): Existing houses BACKGROUND SUMMARY The existing wireless monopine was originally entitled and constructed after several public hearings in 1998 and 1999. Planning Application No. PA98-0219, a Conditional Use Permit to construct a 60-foot high wireless monopine with associated equipment was first submitted in May of 1998. On November 12, 1998, the Planning Director considered the proposal and continued it for consideration by the Planning Commission. On December 16, 1998, the Planning Commission continued the hearing and ultimately approved it on January 6, 1999. On appeal, the City Council conducted hearings on February 9, 1999, April 13, 1999, May 25, 1999, and, on June 8, 1999, upheld the Planning Commission's approval. Thereafter the project was constructed as it stands today in its present form. On January 9, 2008, a Conditional Use Permit application was submitted with plans proposing to replace the existing monopine with a new tree and co-locate two additional carriers. The applicant later determined the existing tree was structurally capable of being reconstructed (rather than replaced) and revised its plans to replace all branches and add additional foliage. These enhancements were required by Staff order to improve the visual appearance of the tree and to properly screen existing and existing and new antenna arrays and equipment. Staff has worked with the applicant to ensure that all concerns have been addressed and the applicant has worked diligently and cooperatively with staff to address aesthetic concerns of the monopine; however, the following issue has not been resolved to the satisfaction of staff: The applicant's plans provide three-dimensional bark cladding to 30 feet above grade. It is Staff's recommendation, as well as the City's telecommunication consultant, that full bark cladding be provided all the way to the top of the monopine to ensure a more realistic appearance given its high visibility and close proximity to the surrounding residents. Staff has conditioned the project (Condition of Approval No. PL-23) to require three-dimensional bark cladding on the trunk from the base at grade to the top of the monopine. ANALYSIS The applicant is requesting to reconstruct an existing Monopine to allow for the co-location of two antenna arrays and six additional cabinets of related equipment within a fenced enclosure. The applicant also proposes to enhance the aesthetic appearance of an existing monopine tree and provide additional landscaping to screen its appearance. The applicant's proposal to co-locate two additional antenna arrays is consistent with Development Code Section 17.40.010 which states that the City shall encourage the co-location of new telecommunication antennas. This requirement prevents the blight of excessive telecommunication facilities within the City. Development Code Section 17.40.010 also states that the City shall protect the visual character of the City from the potential adverse effects of telecommunication facility development and antenna installation by maintaining architectural and structural integrity and preventing unsightly facilities. As constructed, the existing monopine does not meet this requirement and is substandard to the quality of a wireless faux tree as required within the City of Temecula. Its unrealistic branches and painted trunk (no bark cladding) contribute to its poor appearance making it easily recognizable as an antenna facility rather than a tree. The proposal to reconstruct the existing monopine, as conditioned, will significantly enhance the appearance of the tree with additional branch coverage, fuller foliage, three-dimensional bark cladding, and a 2 naturally shaped canopy of branches. Staff has worked with the applicant to ensure the new facility will be considerably upgraded beyond its existing conditions to enhance its visual appearance and better blend with the community. The City's telecommunication consultant has reviewed the proposal and has determined that the antenna location is appropriate and is in compliance with FCC safety rules and regulations. Site Plan The site is owned by the Rancho California Water District and currently has two existing above- ground water tanks and associated pump equipment, as well a second 50-foot high monopole with ground mounted equipment; all of which existed prior to the construction of the surrounding homes. The existing monopine was originally constructed in 1999 and meets all of the development standard requirements and setbacks as set forth within the Public Institutional Zoning District. Furthermore, as required by Development Code Section 17.40.110, the tower is not located closer than 75 feet from any residential structure. Architecture The proposed enhancements to the existing monopine will significantly improve the overall visual appearance of the sparsely designed monopine. The primary design improvements of the structure include replacing all 53 existing branches with more realistic and full branches and adding 37 branches to the tree to provide an enhanced foliage appearance. In addition, all antenna panels will have a pine-needle antenna cover in order to increase its camouflaging and disguise the antenna arrays. The proposal will considerably improve the appearance of the existing tree with additional branch coverage, fuller foliage, three-dimensional bark cladding, and a naturally shaped canopy of branches to meet the design requirements. The original entitlement permitted the monopine to be designed, constructed and installed in a manner that would allow for the co-location of additional arrays and, although described as a 60-foot tall monopine, the height was permitted to be altered by 20% to accommodate co- location. The facility was ultimately constructed at an overall height of 68 feet. Staff has worked with the applicant and the City's telecommunication consultant and determined that the existing height of 68 feet is sufficient to accommodate the co-location of two additional service providers as necessitated to serve the telecommunication services within the area. Therefore, the height of the proposed reconstructed monopine will remain the same as the existing monopine. Staff has ensured the plans clearly call out the height of the overall wireless facility (from grade to the extreme top of the facility) and the project is conditioned not to exceed an overall height of 68 feet (Condition of Approval No. PL-28.) Landscaping The project has been conditioned to ensure that all existing trees surrounding the existing facility remain intact, with the exception of two trees to be relocated to accommodate equipment. In addition, thirteen 48" boxed Mondel Pine trees, four 48" boxed Italian Stone Pine trees and eight 15-gallon Pine trees will be planted to provide additional screening of the monopine. Vines will be planted along the fencing the surrounds the equipment to further enhance the site. 3 LEGAL NOTICING REQUIREMENTS Notice of the public hearing was published in the Californian on May 9, 2009 and mailed to the property owners within the required 600-foot radius. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the proposed project has been deemed to be categorically exempt from further environmental review. Section 15302, Class 2 Replacement or Reconstruction. This is reconstruction of an existing utility facility where the reconstructed structure will have substantially the same purpose with negligible expansion of capacity. FINDINGS The proposed Conditional Use Permit is consistent with the General Plan and the Development Code. The project is permitted by Conditional Use Permit within the Public Institutional Zone. The proposal to co-locate telecommunication antennas onto existing telecommunications facilities is encouraged by the Development Code. Additionally, the General Plan encourages installation of new technological infrastructure throughout the City including broad band, fiber optics, wireless and other developing technologies. The proposed conditional use is compatible with the nature, condition and development of adjacent uses, buildings and structures and the proposed conditional use will not adversely affect the adjacent uses, buildings or structures. The project will upgrade the appearance of an existing monopine to further enhance its visual appearance and provide a better aesthetic design that is compatible with adjacent residential uses and surrounding landscape. There is no demonstrated evidence that wireless communication systems would adversely affect adjacent uses. Further, the project is existing and compatible with the public facilities already at the site. The site for a proposed conditional use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the yards, walls, fences, parking and loading facilities, buffer areas, landscaping, and other development features prescribed in this development code and required by the Planning Commission or City C ouncil in order to integrate the use with other uses in the neighborhood. The site is already developed and the monopine exists. The applicant is revising the design of the existing monopine which will enhance its appearance and simulate its appearance as a pine tree to match the surrounding pine trees. In addition, the applicant is providing additional trees and landscaping to assist in the buffer to adjacent residential lot as well as provide additional screening to overall appearance. The existing site conditions are adequate in size and shape to integrate the new monopine design, additional antenna arrays and associated equipment and additional landscaping as proposed. The nature of the proposed conditional use is not detrimental to the health, safety, and general welfare of the community. The concern regarding electromagnetic fields (EMFs) surfaced in the 9980's and as a result several organizations reviewed the issue and developed standards for the protection against radio frequency emissions. Studies concluded there was no demonstrated evidence that exposure to wireless service facilities was harmful to people. As part of the 9996 Wireless Communications Act, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) established an exposure standard that is a hybrid of various standards developed by others. The FCC controls frequencies used by various entities and regulates the certification of their facilities. The 9996 Act expressly preempts State and local government regulation of the placement, construction and modifications of wireless service facilities on the basis of environmental effects. Staff has determined that the nature of the proposed conditional use is not detrimental to the health, safety, and general welfare of the community. The decision to approve, conditionally approve, or deny the application for a Conditional Use Permit is based on substantial evidence in view of the record as a whole before the Planning Commission or City Council on appeal.

Procedural Findings. The Planning Commission of the City of Temecula does hereby find, determine and declare that: A. The Planning Director considered Planning Application No. PA98-0219, a Conditional Use Permit to construct a 60-foot high wireless monopine and associated equipment on November 12, 1998, at a duly noticed public hearing as prescribed by law, at which time the City staff and interested persons had an opportunity to and did testify either in support or in opposition to this matter. At the conclusion of the Planning Director hearing and after due consideration of the testimony, the Planning Director continued the item to the December 16, 1998 Planning Commission for consideration; B. The Planning Commission considered Planning Application No. PA98- 0219, a Conditional Use Permit to construct a 60-foot high wireless monopine and associated equipment on December 16, 1998 and January 6, 1999, at duly noticed public hearings as prescribed by law at which time the City staff and interested persons had an opportunity to and did testify either in support or in opposition to this matter. At the conclusion of the Commission hearings and after due consideration of the testimony, the Commission approved Planning Application PA98-0219; C. The City Council conducted public hearings pertaining to Planning Application No. PA98-0219, a Conditional Use Permit (Appeal) to construct a 60-foot high wireless monopine and associated equipment on February 9, 1999, April 13, 1999, May 25, 1999, and June 8, 1999, at duly noticed public hearings as prescribed by law, at which time the City staff and interested persons had an opportunity to and did testify either in support or in opposition to this matter; D. On June 8, 1999 the City Council approved Planning Application No. PA98-0219, a Conditional Use Permit to construct a 60-foot high wireless monopine and associated equipment. E. On January 9, 2008, the applicant filed Planning Application No. PA08- 0004, a Conditional Use Permit/Antenna Facility Application for Verizon to reconstruct an existing wireless 68-foot cellular Monopine and co-locate two additional antenna arrays for a total of three antenna arrays, replace all 53 existing branches with enhanced branches/foliage and add 37 additional branches, provide additional landscaping including trees and vines to screen the project and related equipment located within a fenced enclosure, located on a 5.9 acre site owned by Rancho California Water District, on the east side of Meadows Parkway approximately 1000 feet north of Rancho California Road at 41280 Placer Lafite (formerly 31008 Rancho California Road), in a manner in accord with the City of Temecula General Plan and Development Code. F. The Application was processed including, but not limited to a public notice, in the time and manner prescribed by State and local law. G. The Planning Commission, at a regular meeting, considered the Application and environmental review on May 20, 2009, at a duly noticed public hearing as prescribed by law, at which time the City staff and interested persons had an opportunity to and did testify either in support or in opposition to this matter. H. At the conclusion of the Commission hearing and after due consideration of the testimony, the Commission approved Planning Application No. PA08-0004 subject to and based upon the findings set forth hereunder. All legal preconditions to the adoption of the Resolution have occurred. Section 2. Further Findings. The Planning Commission, in approving the Application hereby finds, determines and declares that: A. The proposed Conditional Use Permit is consistent with the General Plan and the Development Code; The project is permitted by Conditional Use Permit within the Public Institutional Zone. The proposal to co-locate telecommunication antennas onto existing telecommunications facilities is encouraged by the Development Code. Additionally, the General Plan encourages installation of new technological infrastructure throughout the City including broad band, fiber optics, wireless and other developing technologies. B. The proposed conditional use is compatible with the nature, condition and development of adjacent uses, buildings and structures and the proposed conditional use will not adversely affect the adjacent uses, buildings or structures; The project will upgrade the appearance of an existing monopine to further enhance its visual appearance and provide a better aesthetic design that is compatible with adjacent residential uses and surrounding landscape. There is no demonstrated evidence that wireless communication systems would adversely affect adjacent uses. Further, the project is existing and compatible with the public facilities already at the site. C. The site for a proposed conditional use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the yards, walls, fences, parking and loading facilities, buffer areas, landscaping, and other development features prescribed in this Development Code and required by the Planning Commission or City Council in order to integrate the use with other uses in the neighborhood; The site is already developed and the monopine exists. The applicant is revising the design of the existing monopine which will enhance its appearance and simulate its appearance as a pine tree to match the surrounding pine trees. In addition, the applicant is providing additional trees and landscaping to assist in the buffer to adjacent residential lot as well as provide additional screening to overall appearance. The existing site conditions are adequate in size and shape to integrate the new monopine design, additional antenna arrays and associated equipment and additional landscaping as proposed. D. The nature of the proposed conditional use is not detrimental to the health, safety, and general welfare of the community; The concern regarding electromagnetic fields (EMFs) surfaced in the 1980's and as a result several organizations reviewed the issue and developed standards for the protection against radio frequency emissions. Studies concluded there was no demonstrated evidence that exposure to wireless service facilities was harmful to people. As part of the 1996 Wireless Communications Act, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) established an exposure standard that is a hybrid of various standards developed by others. The FCC controls frequencies used by various entities and regulates the certification of their facilities. The 1996 Act expressly preempts State and local government regulation of the placement, construction and modifications of wireless service facilities on the basis of environmental effects. Staff has determined that the nature of the conditional use is not detrimental to the health, safety, and general welfare of the community. E. The decision to approve, conditionally approve, or deny the application for a Conditional Use Permit is based on substantial evidence in view of the record as a whole before the Planning Commission or City Council on appeal. Section 3. Environmental Findings. The Planning Commission hereby makes the following environmental findings and determinations in connection with the approval of the Conditional Use Permit Application: A. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the proposed project has been deemed to be categorically exempt from further environmental review (Section 15302, Class 2 Replacement or Reconstruction). This is reconstruction of an existing utility facility where the reconstructed structure will have substantially the same purpose with negligible expansion of capacity. Section 4. Conditions. The Planning Commission of the City of Temecula approves Planning Application No. PA08-0004, A Conditional Use Permit/Antenna Facility Application for Verizon to reconstruct an existing wireless 68-foot cellular Monopine and co-locate two additional antenna arrays for a total of three antenna arrays, replace all 53 existing branches with enhanced branches/foliage and add 37 additional branches, provide additional landscaping including trees and vines to screen the project and related equipment located within a fenced enclosure, located on a 5.9 acre site owned by Rancho California Water District, on the east side of Meadows Parkway approximately 1000 feet north of Rancho California Road at 41280 Placer Lafite, formerly 31008 Rancho California Road, subject to the Conditions of Approval set forth on Exhibit A, attached hereto, and incorporated herein by this reference.

STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS The proposed project site is located at 31008 Rancho California Road. The application proposes eighteen (18) new panel antennas (twelve (12) for Verizon Wireless and six (6) for Royal Street) on an existing monopine not to exceed sixty eight (68) feet in height (sixty (60) foot steel monopole "trunk", and approx five (5) foot long branches extending above the top of the "trunk"). Verizon Wireless' proposed radio equipment is to be placed adjacent to the monopine, in a 375 square foot fenced lease area. The equipment lease area is leased from Rancho California Water district and is located to the north of Rancho California Road, near the intersection of Meadows Parkway. Given the area-wide visibility of this site, Verizon Wireless will redesign the existing monopine to produce a high quality monopine which will camouflage the proposed and existing antennas. The high quality monopine will dramatically improve aesthetics and provide reliable and essential wireless services from antennas hidden within a realistic looking pine tree. The proposed facility has been redesigned to increase the number of faux pine branches from fifty three (53) to ninety (90) branches by adding thirty seven (37) additional branches. In addition to the additional branches, all fifty three (53) of the existing branches will be replaced with new faux branches with thicker needles to produce a full, natural looking pine tree capable of screening the existing and proposed antennas and mounting hardware. The antennas will have pine-needle antenna covers to increase camouflaging and all mounting hardware will be painted with a camouflage design. As shown in the latest set of photo simulations, the new and replacement branches will greatly improve the appearance of the monopine by filling out the canopy and camouflaging the antennas. The proposed changes will result in a net gain for the surrounding community with a dramatically improved appearance and improved access to essential wireless services. The subject property is owned by Rancho California Water District. Currently there are two water tanks and two existing wireless facilities on the property.

STATEMENT OF JUSTIFICATION The proposed project site is located at 31008 Rancho California Road. The application proposes eighteen (18) new panel antennas (twelve (12) for Verizon Wireless and six (6) for Royal Street) on an existing monopine not to exceed sixty eight (68) feet in height (sixty (60) foot steel monopole "trunk", and approx five (5) foot long branches extending above the top of the "trunk").

Upon completion of construction of the facility, routine maintenance of the equipment is necessary and will be conducted on a schedule that is approximately one time per month. 1. Is the site suitable and adequate for the proposed use? Response: Yes, there is an existing monopine with available space for collocation. 2. Would the proposed use and design have a substantial adverse effect on traffic circulation and on the planned capacity of the street system? Response: The proposed facility is unstaffed and will not generate traffic, with the exception of a monthly maintenance visit.

Would the proposed use have a substantial adverse impact on the general welfare ofpersons residing in the community? Response: The proposed collocation will not have an adverse impact on the general welfare of the community. The redesigned monopine and collocated facility will result in a positive impact on the general welfare of the community with improved aesthetics and access to emergency services. Given the area-wide visibility of this site, Verizon Wireless proposes to redesign the existing monopine to produce a high quality monopine which will camouflage the proposed and existing antennas. The high quality monopine will dramatically improve aesthetics and provide reliable and essential wireless services from antennas hidden within a realistic looking pine tree. The proposed facility has been redesigned to increase the number of faux pine branches from fifty three (53) to ninety (90) branches by adding thirty seven (37) additional branches. In addition to the additional branches, all fifty three (53) of the existing branches will be replaced with new faux branches with thicker needles to produce a full, natural looking pine tree capable of screening the existing and proposed antennas and mounting hardware. The antennas will have pine-needle antenna covers to increase camouflaging and all mounting hardware will be painted with a camouflage design. As shown in the latest set of photo simulations, the new and replacement branches will greatly improve the appearance of the monopine by filling out the canopy and camouflaging the antennas. The proposed changes will result in a net gain for the surrounding community with a dramatically improved appearance and improved access to essential wireless services. In addition to improved aesthetics, the proposed collocation will improve the general welfare of the community with improved connectivity and access to emergency services. The improved service provided by the proposed facility is designed to fill a gap in Verizon Wireless' network and ensure improved reliability and access to E911 and emergency services such as police, fire and medical responders who serve the area. This is particularly important when traditional landline phones are inaccessible or not working which is often the case for stranded motorists after a severe storm or earthquake, or as the result of other types of emergencies. Furthermore, law enforcement agents, neighborhood watch programs and individuals use wireless phones in emergency situations to improve emergency service with reduced notification times, improved response times, improved knowledge for emergency response teams and an increased number of life-saving outcomes. As a result, this facility will provide a net positive impact on the health, safety and general welfare for the area. Furthermore, many wireless customers believe that the use of their phones reduces the number of physical vehicle trips they must take in a typical REALCOM A,»ociaies LL.C ® 621 Alder Si. _ - ? aor 97205 ® p503-241-0279 f S03-241-2204 www.realcomassoc.com business day. As a result, the net effect of a wireless system upon a community is to slightly reduce traffic, reduce the likelihood of injuries due to traffic accidents, save energy by using less fuel, and reduce pollutions be reducing the amount of exhaust fumes. All of these things have a cumulative beneficial health impact on the area and in the community as a whole. Is the design of the project compatible with the existing and proposed development within the district and its surroundings? Response: The proposed collocation and redesigned rmonopine will be compatible with the existing and proposed development within the district and its surroundings. As stated earlier, the Verizon Wireless proposes to redesign the existing monopme to produce a high quality monopine which will camouflage the proposed and existing antennas. The high quality monopine will dramatically improve aesthetics and provide reliable and essential wireless services from antennas hidden within a realistic looking pine tree. The proposed facility has been redesigned to increase the number of faux pine branches from fifty three (53) to ninety (90) branches by adding thirty seven (37) additional branches.

Findungs. That City Council, in denying Planning Application No. PA98- 0219 (Conditional Use Permit - Appeal) and upholding the Planning Commission's decision approving Planning Application No. PA98-0219 (Conditional Use Permit) hereby makes the following findings as required by Section 17.05.010.F of the Temecula Municipal Code; A. The proposed conditional use is consistent with the General Plan and the Development Code. The PCS facility qualifies as a public utility, which is a use permitted by Conditional Use Permit in the Public Institutional zone. The General Plan encourages the clustering of public and institutional facilities to the extent possible in both residential or non- residential land use designations. The existing Pacific Bell installation and water tanks at the site provide such an area. B. The proposed conditional use is compatible with the nature, condition and development of adjacent uses, buildings and structures and the proposed conditional use will not adversely affect the adjacent uses, buildings or structures. The project is compatible with the existing public facilities already at the site. The design of the facilities have been modified to be compatible with adjacent residential uses. There is no demonstrated evidence that wireless communication systems adversely affect adjacent residences. C. The site for the proposed conditional use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the yards, walls, fences, parking and loading facilities, buffer areas, landscaping, and other development features prescribed in the Development Code and required by the Planning Commission or Council in order to integrate the use with other uses in the neighborhood. The applicant has revised the design of the monopole to simulate a pine tree - and has provided six Italian Pine trees, 48" box in size, on both the north and south slopes of the site, to assist in the disguise of the "monopine." D. The nature of the proposed conditional use is not detrimental to the health, safety and general welfare of the community. The concern regarding electromagnetic fields (EMFs) surfaced in the 1980's and as a result, several organizations reviewed the issue and developed standards for the protection against radio frequency emissions. Study and after study concluded that there was no demonstrated evidence that exposure to wireless service facilities was harmful to people. As part of the 1996 tireless Communications Act, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) established an exposure standard that is a hybrid of various standards developed by others. The FCC controls frequencies used by various entities and regulates the certification of their facilities. The 1996 Act expressly preempts state and local government regulation of the placement, construction, and modifications of wireless service facilities on the basis of environmental effects. The City Attorney has recommended that the project be conditioned to provide annual evidence of recertification by the FCC, in order to ensure compliance with the FCC's regulations and standards. Condition of Approval No. 9 has been included to require this. E. The decision to approve, conditionally approve, or deny the application for a conditional use permit is based on substantial evidence in view of the record as a whole before the City Council. Section 2. Environmental Compliance. The project qualifies under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) for a Categorical Exemption under Section 15301 Existing Facilities, Class 1 (b), because it is a minor alteration of an existing facility, involving negligible expansion of use beyond that previously existing, in order to provide telecommunications service. Resos 9947 2 Section 3. Conditions.

It is recommended by the Planning Department that the Planning Commission approve the request. Commissioner Webster advised that he would be abstaining with regard to this Agenda Item, and, therefore, left the meeting at 7:01 P.M., per Attorney Curley's counsel. By way of renderings, Project Planner Donahoe presented the staff report (of record), noting that the site currently maintains two existing above-ground water tanks, as well as, a Pacific Bell 50-foot high monopole; relayed that when the application was submitted in May of 1998, although there was opposition from the Chardonnay Hills Homeowners Association, the applicant met with the representative for Chardonnay Hills, and staff, to discuss the project; noted that the applicant did research alternative locations for the PCS facility and analyzed the monopole height which resulted in the proposed project presented at this site with a lowered height at 60', disguised as a pine tree, with the addition of three additional Italian Pine trees for visual aesthetic purposes; relayed that at the November, 1998, Directors Hearing, five homeowners, from the adjacent housing tract, spoke in opposition of the project, noting their primary concern was the EMF (electromagnetic field) emissions, and requested that the matter be continued to a hearing at a more convenient time. Ms. Donahoe advised that this project, with regard to the EMF (electromagnetic fields) is well below the exposure standards that the FCC (Federal Communication Commission) has set; for Commissioner Naggar, specified the exact proposed location of the monopine; for Chairwoman Slaven, identified the location of the proposed chain-linked fence, adjacent to the existing RCWD (Rancho California Water District) chain-linked fence with existing barbed wire, noting that a line-of-sight test was done revealing that the proposed chain-linked fence will not be visible form the homes on Merlot Crest; and advised that the City's Landscape Architect is recommending that a condition be added requiring three additional 36-inch box pine trees to be installed. Mr. John Murphy, representing the applicant, clarified that the applicant has met all the standards setforth by the City, and noted that staff has made a Finding indicating that the proposed project is not detrimental to the health, safety, and welfare of the community.

Bushberg, Clinical Associate Professor of Radiology at UC Davis, representing the applicant, presented the EMF emission exposure standards of safety, set by the FCC, noting that they are 50 times lower than the minimal level thought to be dangerous, at exposure rates of 24 hours a day, 365 days a year; noting that this particular project is approximately 50,000 times less than the level thought to be potentially hazardous; specified that the broadcast energy levels, specifically aimed toward the horizon, release a small amount of energy level at ground level; relayed the EMF standards world-wide; for informational purposes, clarified that the levels of emissions from a baby monitor would be ten times greater than the emissions of exposure at the proposed site. Dr. Bushberg advised, for Chairwoman Slaven, that this particular type of exposure has been in existence for over four decades, and that although the cumulative effects of multiple antennas would be additive, the emissions would still be below the safety standard; for Commissioner Nagger, clarified that EMF emissions can cause harm, like any agent (i.e., water) and would depend upon the dosage; specified that the safety standard set represents a general consensus of scientific opinion, noting that relative to the height and level of emissions, an adjacent neighbor could be on his roof 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and be safe from harm; advised that if the system malfunctioned, the broadcast levels would lessen; and noted that the levels of emissions from cellular phones are hundreds of times higher than the emissions from the proposed project. The following individuals spoke in opposition to the proposed project: Mr. Larry LeDoux Mr. Shawn Bierle Mr. Frank DiGiacomo Mr. Merle Campbell - Mr. Leo Finegold - 32004 Merlot Crest - 32016 Merlot Crest - 32032 Merlot Crest - 32027 Merlot Crest - 32036 Merlot Crest A petition was submitted in opposition of the project with 28 signatures, encompassing 17 of the 20 adjacent residences. The above-mentioned individuals spoke in opposition to the proposed project, recommending to the Commission denial or postponement of the issue, for the following reasons: documentation and data presented warning against prolonged exposure to EMF, noting that the information on the subject is inconclusive concern with regard to the long-term effects of EMF on unborn babies the location of the proposed site, recommended siting away from residential areas concern with more antennas at a future point in time being installed concerned with government standards, determining a matter is safe, and then at a later point in time, issuing a warning of hazard on the same matter requested documentation from the American Cancer or Heart Association on EMF • • Dr. Bushberg addressed the concerns and questions of the community and the Commission, as follows: clarified that the documentation provided by Mr. Bierle almost conclusively focused on powerline electric and magnetic fields, not radiowave emissions from telecommunication facilities (the issue at hand), noting that the electromagnetic field emissions from telecommunication radiowaves are non- ionizing, versus the aforementioned, which are ionizing for Chairwoman Slaven, clarified that radiowaves could be divided into ionizing and non-ionizing radiowaves, noting that non-ionizing radiowaves at the threshold levels maintained below a certain level are non-carcinogenic, echoed by a consensus of national and international scientific data, yielding safety at this particular project, with exposure at these levels, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year noted that the scientific body chartered by Congress, and other scientific data, have detailed the effects of EMF, advising that there is pertinent conclusive information on EMF with regard to the effect on pace-makers, advised that there are no negative effects from telecommunication towers due to the low levels emitted presented, by way of overheads, documentation from the American Cancer Society, noting that non-ionizing radiation at such low levels is not a carcinogen For Chairwoman Slaven, Mr. Murphy noted that the applicant executed three search ranges, considering alternative sites, noting that the criteria for siting a location is based on a location concentrated on a main transportation corridor, utilizing public utilities sites. Initially, the Commission expressed their comments on the proposed project, as follows: Commissioner Nagger relayed that since he was not completely knowledgeable on the technical aspects of the hazards associated with the EMF emissions, and since the data appeared inconclusive, he would vote in favor of the residents' concerns, opposing the project. In contrast, Commissioner Soltysiak, noted that since the residents located their residences, with full disclosure, adjacent to an existing similar facility, and since the area is zoned for such facilities, he would accept the staff recommendation and vote in favor of the project. Chairwoman Slaven noted her concurrence with Commissioner Naggaes comments, further commenting that the quality of life included living without fear, and since the residents have expressed grave concerns with the EMF emissions, she could not support the project, suggesting that the applicant site another location, away from residential areas. Attorney Curley clarified that since the Federal Communication Act of 1996, expressly considered the environmental effects that it is not in our jurisdiction to base the criteria of the land use findings on the EMF emissions, due to the aforementioned preemption, noting that the Public Utilities Commission could override a decision, if based upon the stated criteria; advised that this determination has been made due to the technical nature of the informational data. Commissioner Nagger requested provision of information on case law involving cellular facilities and the regulation that specify or limit the Commission's action. Planning Manager Ubnoske relayed that the adjacent neighbors could have investigated and determined that their property is located adjacent to a public utility site, noting that the existing Pacific Bell monopole was at the site, prior to the residents locating there. Project Planner Donahoe advised that although the data was not currently available, the applicant did explore other sites, as stated in the staff presentation. Chairwoman Slaven suggested continuing the matter to obtain information supporting the location site and, whether, or not, there is another location which would provide equivalent service. Based on community input, Mr. Murphy, representing the applicant, was agreeable to obtaining the data and research for location siting and investigating any identifiable alternative sites. MOTION: Commissioner Nagger moved to close the public hearing; and moved to continue the matter to the January 6, 1999, Planning Commission meeting, for the aforementioned reasons. The motion was seconded by Chairwoman Slaven and voice vote reflected unanimous approval with the exception of Commissioners Guerriero and Webster who abstained. PLANNING MANAGER'S REPORT A. With regard to Dr. John Husing's Economic Development Strategy report, it was noted that if the Commission had questions, Assistant City Manager O'Grady could address those issues at a Planning Commission meeting.

Following some additional discussion with regard to the fencing and the gates, it was the consensus of the City Council that the fencing be set back two parking spaces for each unit, thereby, providing additional room in front of the gate and less room behind the gate and, thereby, decreasing the potential space for outside storage. Mr. Markham voiced no objection to Council's recommendation to set the fencing further back and as well agreed to eliminate the center gates (6 totaq but relayed the applicant's desire to retain the cross fencing to properly delineate parking spaces per unit. In response to City Attorney Thorson's comments, the following motion was offered: MOTION: Mayor Pro Tom Stone moved to direct staff to amend the proposed resolution to appropriately reflect the changes as recommended by the City Council and to agendize the matter for the February 23, 1999, City Council meeting. The motion was seconded by Councilman Roberts and voice vote reflected unanimous approval. 9:04 P.M., Mayor Ford called a short recess and reconvened the meeting at 9:16 P.M. 26 everoreen Dine tree ("monopine') at the Rancho California Water District water tank site at 3100 Rancho Cafrfomia Road RECOMMENDATION: 26.1 Adopt a Notice of Exemption for Planning Application No. PA98-0219; 26.2 Adopt a resolution entitled: 12 A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF TEMECULA DENYING PLANNING APPLICATION NO.

THE ANTENNAS WILL BE MOUNTED ATOP A 60-FOOT HIGH MONOPOLE DISGUISED AS AN EVERGREEN PINE TREE (°MONOPINE•) LOCATED AT THE RANCHO CALIFORNIA WATER DISTRICT WATER TANK SITE AT 3100 RANCHO CALIFORNIA ROAD AND KNOWN AS ASSESSOR'S PARCEL NO. 953460-022 Although staff had as well expressed some concern with regard to the aesthetics of the proposed monopole, Deputy City Manager Thornhill presented the staff report (of record) and advised that, in light of given studies indicating that such facilities pose no health problems, staff has no concern with regard to this issue; and advised that the zoning for this facility is in conformance with the City's General Plan. City Attorney Thorson noted that Councilman Lindeman had appealed this matter on the basis of the importance of the issue and the need for the City Council to review it; advised that the appeal documents are contained in the record; and noted that the applicant has the burden of proof. In response to the residents' concern relative to health threats posed by such a facility, City Attorney Thorson referenced the opinions of several experts in the electromagnetic emissions field which is that there are not health risks associated with such facilities. Mr. Thorson as well referenced Federal law which states that no State or loco) government may regulate the placement, construction, or modification of personal wireless service facilities on the basis of environmental affects of electromagnetic emissions. He noted that the Federal government has assumed jurisdiction over this issue which precludes any State/County/City regulations. At this time, Mayor Ford opened the public hearing. Mr. Greg Morrison, representing Cox Communications, addressed several concerns/questions from the City Council, noting the following: • that the Pacific Bell site is 50' high and that it was constructed in 1996 prior to the construction of the existing homes; • that alternative sites were explored but in light of the existing water tank and the existing pole viewed this as the most suitable location; • that the proposed pole could be 60' high but that the extra branches for aesthetic purposes raises the height to 65'; • that he has attempted to address the residents' concerns with regard to the health issues in various ways including written communications from the American Cancer Society; Mr. Morrison provided additional explanation of radio signal frequency; • that the 65' pole raises no FAA concerns; 13 • that a majority of the pole will be located behind the existing water tank and that the residents will actually see approximately 30' of the pole; a that additional foliage could be provided to further address the aesthetic appearance and to hide the panels; • that the life expectancy of the fake foliage is approximately 5 to 10 years, advising that the Planning Commission had added a condition requiring inspection of the foliage every couple of years to ensure aesthetic maintenance. Mr. Paul Gonzalez, representing the Water District, informed the Councilmembers that he was in attendance to answer any questions andfor concerns. Referencing the FCC's ruling regarding the placement, construction, and modification of personal wireless services, Mr. Lary LeDoux, 32004 Merlot Crest, noted that the ruling does provide the local agency the ability to regulate placement of such facilities and stated that the City may deny such a facility. Concurring with Mr. LeDoux s comment, Mayor Pro Tom Stone noted that the City may deny such a facility as long as it is not based on health concerns as preempted by the Federal government Viewing the proposed project as visually unacceptable, Mr. Frank DiGiacomo, 32032 Merlot Crest, relayed his opposition to the proposed project and suggested that the City Council determine whether or not there may be a conflict of interest between the Board Members for Cox Communications and the Water District. In response to Mr. DiGiacomo's comment, Mayor Pro Tom Stone noted that the Board Members of the Water District are elected officials and, therefore, must adhere to annual filing requirements of the Fair Political Practice Commission. Submitting a petition in objection to the project, Mr. Shawn Bierle, 32016 Merlot Crest, questioned the cumulative impact additional facilities of this kind would have on the noted health concerns; viewed the public notification process for this project as limited; objected to the visual appearance of this facility; and stated that such a facility should not be located in a residential area. City Attomey Thorson noted that the City may deny this project as long as substantial evidence can support the denial and that it not be related to aesthetic appearance. Mayor Pro Tern Stone suggested that the height of the tower be lowered. Councilman Lindeman relayed his oonoems with such facilities with regard to aesthetic appearance and health issues. Viewing the site as aesthetically unpleasing, Councilman Roberts as well commented on the cumulative impacts such facilities may have on the health issues and, therefore, suggested the exploration of another location. Referencing the communication from the American Cancer Society, Mayor Pro Tom Stone voiced no concern with regard to electromagnetic emissions; noted that the area of discussion has been zoned to accommodate a facility such as the one which is being proposed; objected to the proliferation of such poles and, therefore, suggested that the Zoning Ordinance be 14 readdressed and that architectural guidelines for such facilities be created; and stated that such facilities should require regularly scheduled evaluations to address health concerns. N this project were approved, Mr. Stone suggested the formation of a subcommittee comprised of City Councilmembers and the residents in order to create a suitable design. Although echoing the concern of cumulative impact of such facilities, Councilman Comerchero spoke in support of the project but relayed his desire that periodic maintenance inspections be conducted as imposed by the Planning Commission and further clarified that such inspections should be conducted every two years. Although he is not of the opinion that these type of facilities create a health risk, Mayor Ford relayed a concern as to the proliferation of such facilities. If the City were to deny this project, Mr. Ford noted that the project would be appealed at which time the City would have no enforcement guidelines. Mayor Ford suggested that Cox Communications explore alternative sites. Noting that although the zoning for the site is accurate, Mr. Ford advised that such zoning was initially intended for the Water District tank. City Attorney Thorson suggested that the public hearing not be closed in order to give the applicant the opportunity to investigate alternative sites as well as to explore alternative foliage coverings for aesthetic purposes. MOTION: Councilman Comerchero moved to keep the public hearing open and to direct staff to address with the applicant altemative sites as wall as address the aesthetic appearance and that the matter be continued to the March 23, 1999, City Council meeting. The motion was seconded by Councilman Roberts and voice vote reflected unanimous approval.

In response to Councilman Comerchero's desire to provide sufficient landscaping, Mr. Morrison voiced no objection to exploring the use of other types of fast-growing tress; noted that foliage coverage could be lowered on the pole; advised that this third pole would sufficiently service the entire City; and stated that in the event Cox Communications were to change its technology to satellite, the applicant would be willing to remove the pole at the applicant's expense.

Mr. John Camp, 32012 Merlot Crest, as well relayed his opposition to the proposed site. In response to Mayor Pro Tom Stone, Deputy City Manager Thornhill noted that such antennas are not permitted in residential zones and that he would review the topographical maps presented by Mr. Berle to determine other allowable locations. Relaying his opposition to the proposed site, Councilman Lkrdemans commented on the Comas ability to consider a General Plan amendment Mr. Lindeman requested that a second opinion a< to the proposed location be provided; viewed the proposed pole a: aesthetically unpleasing and voiced no concern as to health risks. Although a General Plan amendment could be considered by the City Council, Mayor Pro Tom Stone noted that this applicant has attempted to midgets any potential impacts.

THE ANTENNAS WILL BE MOUNTED ATOP A 60-FOOT HIGH MONOPOLE DISGUISED AS AN EVERGREEN PINE TREE (MONOPINE) LOCATED AT THE RANCHO CALIFORNIA WATER DISTRICT WATER TANK SITE AT 3100 RANCHO CALIFORNIA ROAD, AND KNOWN AS ASSESSOR'S PARCEL NO. 953-060- 022 Deputy City Manager Thornhill reviewed the staff report (as per agenda material), advising that a recently completed study concluded that due to topography, distance between antennas, etc., severe limitations exist as to a viable location which, therefore, validates the proposed location. Mr. Rich Stevens, consultant who completed the study, advised that all potentially feasible sites were explored as to the viability of constructing the pole. Mr. Stevens briefly referenced other sites which were explored but due to limitation were not feasible. In response to Mayor Pro Tern Stone, Assistant City Attorney Curley advised that one of the purposes of the Telecommunications Act is to prohibit monopolization of a market place and noted that one could make a substantive argument in court if the City Council were to impose a moratorium of such utilities prior to the adoption of this use. R:VAnuteeW80899 Having previously researched the feasibility of potential sites, Mr. Greg Morrison, 34031& Street, Riverside, applicant, concurred with the conclusions noted in the consultant's study; reiterated that the construction of this pole would enhance public safety; and supported the imposed conditions of approval relative to creating a visually pleasing site. In response to Councilman Comerchero, Mr. Morison relayed concurrence with constructing a pole which would permit collocation of another facility (10' vertical separation between two carriers) in order to minimize the number of structures, noting that such construction would create a pole 10 higher. Mr. Morrison advised that the existing Pacific Bell pole Is not conditioned for collocation and that a new pole would have to be erected, noting that Cox Communications does not sublease its pole to other carriers. As to proposed landscaping, Mr. Morrison advised that six 48' box (16' to 20') trees will be planted along the north and south sides. Reiterating a previously noted concern with regard to conflict of interest, Mr. Frank DiGiacomo, 32032 Merlot Crest, requested that this matter be readdressed by the Planning Commission and questioned the reason for the City paying for the completed study. Mr. Shawn Bierle, 32016 Merlot Crest, thanked the City Council and Mr. Morrison on their due diligence with regard to this issue; requested that a moratorium be imposed at this point in time and that rezoning be considered; and advised that he does not oppose the communication system but that he does oppose the proposed location of it. For Mr. Bierie, additional clarification was provided with regard to other sites which were explored and the reasons for why they were not feasible locations. Considering the potential proliferation of these sites, Councilman Lindemans relayed his opposition to this request and concurred with Councilman Roberts' suggestion to explore a moratorium. Although supporting the concept of a moratorium, Councilman Comerchero commented on the potential legal ramifications if the Council were to impose a moratorium prior to the approval of this request; therefore, Mr. Comerchero supported the concept of collocation, constructing a 60' pole for two carriers, and recommended the imposition of two additional conditions of approval - that a two-year maintenance review period of the pole be imposed to ensure proper aesthetic neccees ary, the applican be required to remove, at the applicant's expense, heo constructed pole. Addressing Mr. DiGiacomo's comment, Mayor Pro Tern Stone noted that the City paid for the completion of such a study to ensure all feasible locations were explored; stated that the proposed landscaping for the proposed pole will as well disguise the existing water tank and pole; noted that the applicant has proceeded and abided by the application process as required by law; and advised that the Public Utilities Commission could approve this site without any special conditions of approval. Concerned with the potential proliferation of such sites, Mayor Ford spoke in support of a moratorium prior to the approval of this particular pole to which Assistant City Attorney Curley provided informed with regard to such moratorium and the potential of an appeal to the Public Utilities Commission and State/Federal Court. Mayor Ford relayed his support of collocation. MOTION: Councilman Comerchero moved to approve the proposed request contingent on Pacific Bell (existing pole) agreeing to collocate on one 60' pole with Cox Communications with the addition of two conditions - that a two-year maintenance review period of the pole be imposed to ensure proper aesthetic appearance and that in the event technology were to change and the R:UUlnutesU0899 existing pole were no longer necessary, the applicant be required to remove, at the applicant's expense, the constructed pole. (This motion died for the lack of a second.) Assistant City Attorney Curley relayed some concern as to conditioning this approval on the consent of a third party. Following additional discussion with regard to constructing a pole suitable for collocation, Mr. Morrison reiterated the applicant's concurrence with such construction. MOTION: Councilman Comerchero moved to uphold the Planning Commission's approval of Planning Application No. PA98-0129 (Cox Communications) with the following conditions: • That one 60' pole be erected and prepared for collocation of another facility; • That City staff discuss with Pacific Bell and the Water District the feasibility of collocating the existing Pacific Bell facilities onto a 60' pole (Cox Communications) and that the existing Pacific Bell tower be removed; • That a two-year maintenance review period of the pole be imposed to ensure proper aesthetic appearance; • That in the event technology were to change and the existing pole were no longer necessary, the applicant be required to remove, at the applicant's expense, the pole. The motion was seconded by Mayor Pro Tem Stone and voice vote reflected approval with th e exception of Councilman Lindemans and Mayor Ford who voted no, Mayor Ford noted that Pacific Bell may not want to collocate with Cox Communications which would then result in two poles at this particular site. MOTION: Councilman Lindemans moved to institute an immediate moratorium prior to the construction of a second pole at this particular site. (This motion died for lack of a second.) MOTION: Councilman Lindemans moved to immediately place a moratorium on future sites. The motion was seconded by Councilman Comerchero and voice vote reflected approval with th e exception of Mayor Pro Tern Stone who voted no. Prior to voting on such a motion, Mayor Pro Tern Stone noted that he would be desirous of obtaining additional information from staff. At 9:13 P.M., Mayor Ford called a recess and reconvened the meeting at 9:23 P.M.

ITEM 5 STAFF REPORT - PLANNING CITY OF TEMECULA PLANNING COMMISSION DATE OF MEETING: May 20, 2009 PREPARED BY: Betsy Lowrey, Case Planner PROJECT Planning Application Number PA08-0149, a Conditional Use SUMMARY: Permit/Antenna Facility Application for AT&T to replace an existing wireless 50-foot cellular monopole with a newly constructed aesthetically enhanced 65-foot wireless cellular Monopine (faux pine tree), co-locate an additional antenna array for a total of two antenna arrays, and provide additional landscaping including trees and vines to screen the project and related equipment located within a fence and wall enclosure, located on a 5.9 acre site owned by Rancho California Water District, on the east side of Meadows Parkway approximately 1000 feet north of Rancho California Road at 41280 Placer Lafite, formerly 31008 Rancho California Road RECOMMENDATION: Approve with Conditions CEQA: Categorically Exempt Section 15302, Class 2, Replacement or Reconstruction PROJECT DATA SUMMARY Name of Applicant: Ed Gala on behalf of AT&T Mobility General Plan Designation: Zoning Designation Existing Conditions/ Land Use: Public Institution (PI) Public Institution (PI) Site: Public Institution (PI): A 5.49 acre site utilities site water towers and associated pumping equipment Monopines with associated cabinets and equipment North: Low Medium Residential (LM): Existing houses South: Low Medium Residential (LM): Existing houses East: Low Medium Residential (LM): Existing houses West: Low Medium Residential (LM): Existing houses with two existing and two existing BACKGROUND SUMMARY The existing 50-foot undisguised wireless monopole cellular tower was originally entitled on July 11, 1996 (PA96-0063). On June 26, 2008, a Conditional Use Permit application was submitted with plans proposing to remove the existing 50-foot monopole and replace it with a new 70-foot monopine (faux tree) cellular tower with two co-located carriers. Various improvements and revisions have been made to the plans including a reduction in the proposed overall height from 70 feet to 65 feet, enhanced foliage, branches, bark, and compatible design requirements to ensure the newly proposed monopine is visually compatible with the Verizon 68-foot (approximate) monopine also located on the site. Also, additional landscaping has been added to the project site. Upon approval of this Conditional Use Permit application (PA08-0149) to remove an existing monopole and replace it with an enhanced monopine cellular tower, the Applicant will withdraw the original Conditional Use Permit (PA96-0063). Staff has worked with the applicant to ensure that all concerns have been addressed and the applicant has worked diligently and cooperatively with staff to address aesthetic concerns of the monopine. ANALYSIS The applicant is requesting to remove an existing 50-foot undisguised wireless monopole cell tower and replace it with a 65-foot Monopine to allow for the co-location of a total of two carriers (two antenna arrays) and related equipment within a fenced enclosure. Additional landscaping is also proposed to screen its appearance. The applicant's proposal to co-locate two carriers (two antenna arrays total) is consistent with Development Code Section 17.40.010 which states that the City shall encourage the co-location of new telecommunication antennas. This requirement prevents the blight of excessive telecommunication facilities within the City. Development Code Section 17.40.010 also states that the City shall protect the visual character of the City from the potential adverse effects of telecommunication facility development and antenna installation by maintaining architectural and structural integrity and preventing unsightly facilities. As constructed, the existing monopole does not meet this requirement and is substandard to the quality of a wireless cellular tower as required within the City of Temecula since it is undisguised and easily recognizable as an antenna facility and does not blend with its surroundings. Although the proposal to replace the existing monopole with a monopine will increase its height by 15 feet total, the newly constructed facility, as conditioned, will significantly enhance the appearance of the cell tower and will blend better with its surroundings and landscaping. Furthermore, there is already a 65-foot monopine on the same site, which is concurrently being processed (PA08-0004) to enhance its visual appearance. Staff has worked with the applicants of both wireless monopine cell towers to ensure they are similarly enhanced and compatible with each other and that they each provide adequate branch coverage, full foliage, three-dimensional bark cladding, and a naturally shaped canopy of branches. Both facilities will be considerably upgraded to enhance their visual appearance and better blend with each other and the community. 2 The City's telecommunication consultant has reviewed the proposal and has determined that the antenna location is appropriate and is in compliance with FCC safety rules and regulations. Site Plan The site is owned by the Rancho California Water District and currently has two existing above- ground water tanks and associated pump equipment, as well a second 65-foot high monopine with ground mounted equipment. The existing structure was originally constructed in 1996, prior to the construction of the surrounding homes, and meets all of the development standard requirements and setbacks as set forth within the Public Institutional Zoning District. Furthermore, as required by Development Code Section 17.40.110, the tower is not located closer than 75 feet from any residential structure. Architecture The proposal will significantly improve the overall visual appearance of the existing monopole. The primary design improvement will replace the undisguised monopole with a faux tree to better blend with its surroundings and landscape. All antenna panels will have a pine-needle antenna cover in order to increase its camouflaging and disguise the antenna arrays. The monopine cell tower will be constructed with full foliage, three-dimensional bark cladding, and a naturally shaped canopy of branches to meet the design requirements. Staff has worked with the applicant and the City's telecommunication consultant and determined that the proposed height of 65 feet is required in order to accommodate the co-location of two service providers as necessitated to serve the telecommunication services within the area. Furthermore, the height of the structure will be the same or less than the existing monopine on the same site. Staff has ensured the plans clearly call out the height of the overall wireless facility (from grade to the extreme top of the facility) and the project is conditioned not to exceed an overall height of 65 feet (Condition of Approval No. PL-28) Landscaping The project has been conditioned to ensure that all existing trees surrounding the existing facility remain intact. In addition, fifteen 48" boxed Afgahn Pine trees will be planted to provide additional screening of the monopine. Vines will be planted along the fencing and walls that surrounds the equipment to further screen and enhance the site. LEGAL NOTICING REQUIREMENTS Notice of the public hearing was published in the Californian on May 9, 2009 and mailed to the property owners within the required 600-foot radius. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the proposed project has been deemed to be categorically exempt from further environmental review. Section 15302, Class 2 Replacement or Reconstruction. This is replacement of an existing utility facility where the new structure will be located on the same site as the structure replaced and will have substantially the same purpose with negligible expansion of capacity. 3 FINDINGS The proposed Conditional Use Permit is consistent with the General Plan and the Development Code. The project is permitted by Conditional Use Permit within the Public Institutional Zone. The proposal to reconstruct existing telecommunication facilities in order to co-locate telecommunications services which is encouraged by the Development Code. Additionally, the General Plan encourages installation of new technological infrastructure throughout the City including broad band, fiber optics, wireless and other developing technologies. The proposed conditional use is compatible with the nature, condition and development of adjacent uses, buildings and structures and the proposed conditional use will not adversely affect the adjacent uses, buildings or structures. The project will upgrade the appearance of an existing monopole to further enhance its visual appearance and provide a better aesthetic design that is compatible with adjacent residential uses and surrounding landscape. There is no demonstrated evidence that wireless communication systems would adversely affect adjacent uses. Further, the project is existing and compatible with the facilities already at the site. The site for a proposed conditional use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the yards, walls, fences, parking and loading facilities, buffer areas, landscaping, and other development features prescribed in this Development Code and required by the Planning Commission or City Council in order to integrate the use with other uses in the neighborhood. The site is already developed and the telecommunications facilities exist. The applicant is revising and reconstructing the design of the monopole which will enhance its appearance and simulate its appearance as a pine tree to match the surrounding pine trees. In addition, the applicant is providing additional trees and landscaping to assist in the buffer to adjacent residential lot as well as provide additional screening to overall appearance. The existing site conditions are adequate in size and shape to integrate the new monopine design, additional antenna arrays and associated equipment and additional landscaping as proposed. The nature of the proposed conditional use is not detrimental to the health, safety, and general welfare of the community. The concern regarding electromagnetic fields (EMFs) surfaced in the 9980's and as a result several organizations reviewed the issue and developed standards for the protection against radio frequency emissions. Studies concluded there was no demonstrated evidence that exposure to wireless service facilities was harmful to people. As part of the 9996 Wireless Communications Act, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) established an exposure standard that is a hybrid of various standards developed by others. The FCC controls frequencies used by various entities and regulates the certification of their facilities. The 9996 Act expressly preempts State and local government regulation of the placement, construction and modifications of wireless service facilities on the basis of environmental effects. Staff has determined that the nature of the proposed conditional use is not detrimental to the health, safety, and general welfare of the community The decision to approve, conditionally approve, or deny the application for a Conditional Use Permit is based on substantial evidence in view of the record as a whole before the Planning Commission or City Council on appeal.

PC RESOLUTION NO. 09- A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF TEMECULA APPROVING PLANNING APPLICATION NO. PA08-0149, A CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT/ANTENNA FACILITY APPLICATION FOR AT&T TO REPLACE AN EXISTING WIRELESS 50-FOOT CELLULAR MONOPOLE WITH A NEWLY CONSTRUCTED AESTHETICALLY ENHANCED 65-FOOT WIRELESS CELLULAR MONOPINE (FAUX PINE TREE), CO-LOCATE AN ADDITIONAL ANTENNA ARRAY FOR A TOTAL OF TWO ANTENNA ARRAYS, AND PROVIDE ADDITIONAL LANDSCAPING INCLUDING TREES AND VINES TO SCREEN THE PROJECT AND RELATED EQUIPMENT LOCATED WITHIN A FENCE AND WALL ENCLOSURE, LOCATED ON A 5.9 ACRE SITE OWNED BY RANCHO CALIFORNIA WATER DISTRICT, ON THE EAST SIDE OF MEADOWS PARKWAY APPROXIMATELY 1000 FEET NORTH OF RANCHO CALIFORNIA ROAD AT 41280 PLACER LAFITE, FORMERLY 31008 RANCHO CALIFORNIA ROAD (APN 953-390-002) Section 1. Procedural Findings. The Planning Commission of the City of Temecula does hereby find, determine and declare that: A. On July 11, 1996 the Planning Director approved Planning Application No. PA96-0063, a Conditional Use Permit to construct a 50-foot high wireless cellular monopole and associated equipment. B. On January 9, 2008, the applicant filed Planning Application No. PA08- 0149, a Conditional Use Permit/Antenna Facility Application for AT&T to replace an existing wireless 50-foot cellular monopole with a newly constructed aesthetically enhanced 65-foot wireless cellular Monopine (faux pine tree), co-locate an additional antenna array for a total of two antenna arrays, and provide additional landscaping including trees and vines to screen the project and related equipment located within a fence and wall enclosure, located on a 5.9 acre site owned by Rancho California Water District, on the east side of Meadows Parkway approximately 1000 feet north of Rancho California Road at 41280 Placer Lafite, formerly 31008 Rancho California Road, in a manner in accord with the City of Temecula General Plan and Development Code. C. The Application was processed including, but not limited to a public notice, in the time and manner prescribed by State and local law. D. The Planning Commission, at a regular meeting, considered the Application and environmental review on May 20, 2009, at a duly noticed public hearing as prescribed by law, at which time the City staff and interested persons had an opportunity to and did testify either in support or in opposition to this matter. E. At the conclusion of the Commission hearing and after due consideration of the testimony, the Commission approved Planning Application No. PA09-0149 subject to and based upon the findings set forth hereunder. F. All legal preconditions to the adoption of the Resolution have occurred. Section 2. Further Findings. The Planning Commission, in approving the Application hereby finds, determines and declares that: A. The proposed Conditional Use Permit is consistent with the General Plan and the Development Code; The project is permitted by Conditional Use Permit within the Public Institutional Zone. The proposal to reconstruct existing telecommunication facilities in order to co-locate telecommunications services which is encouraged by the Development Code. Additionally, the General Plan encourages installation of new technological infrastructure throughout the City including broad band, fiber optics, wireless and other developing technologies. B. The proposed conditional use is compatible with the nature, condition and development of adjacent uses, buildings and structures and the proposed conditional use will not adversely affect the adjacent uses, buildings or structures: The project will upgrade the appearance of an existing monopole to further enhance its visual appearance and provide a better aesthetic design that is compatible with adjacent residential uses and surrounding landscape. There is no demonstrated evidence that wireless communication systems would adversely affect adjacent uses. Further, the project is existing and compatible with the facilities already at the site. C. The site for a proposed conditional use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the yards, walls, fences, parking and loading facilities, buffer areas, landscaping, and other development features prescribed in this Development Code and required by the Planning Commission or City Council in order to integrate the use with other uses in the neighborhood; The site is already developed and the telecommunications facilities exists. The applicant is revising and reconstructing the design of the monopole which will enhance its appearance and simulate its appearance as a pine tree to match the surrounding pine trees. In addition, the applicant is providing additional trees and landscaping to assist in the buffer to adjacent residential lot as well as provide additional screening to overall appearance. The existing site conditions are adequate in size and shape to integrate the new monopine design, additional antenna arrays and associated equipment and additional landscaping as proposed. D. The nature of the proposed conditional use is not detrimental to the health, safety, and general welfare of the community; The concern regarding electromagnetic fields (E'MFs) surfaced in the 1980's and as a result several organizations reviewed the issue and developed standards for the protection against radio frequency emissions. Studies concluded there was no demonstrated evidence that exposure to wireless service facilities was harmful to people. As part of the 1996 Wireless Communications Act, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) established an exposure standard that is a hybrid of various standards developed by others. The FCC controls frequencies used by various entities and regulates the certification of their facilities. The 1996 Act expressly preempts State and local government regulation of the placement, construction and modifications of wireless service facilities on the basis of environmental effects. Staff has determined that the nature of the proposed conditional use is not detrimental to the health, safety, and general welfare of the community E. The decision to approve, conditionally approve, or deny the application for a Conditional Use Permit is based on substantial evidence in view of the record as a whole before the Planning Commission or City Council on appeal. Section 3. Environmental Findings. The Planning Commission hereby makes the following environmental findings and determinations in connection with the approval of the Conditional Use Permit Application: A. In accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act, the proposed project has been deemed to be categorically exempt from further environmental review (Section 15302, Class 2 Replacement or Reconstruction); This is replacement of an existing utility facility where the new structure will be located on the same site as the structure replaced and will have substantially the same purpose with negligible expansion of capacity. Section 4. Conditions. The Planning Commission of the City of Temecula approves Planning Application No. PA08-0004, a Conditional Use Permit/Antenna Facility Application for AT&T to replace an existing wireless 50-foot cellular monopole with a newly constructed aesthetically enhanced 65-foot wireless cellular Monopine (faux pine tree), co-locate an additional antenna array for a total of two antenna arrays, and provide additional landscaping including trees and vines to screen the project and related equipment located within a fence and wall enclosure, located on a 5.9 acre site owned by Rancho California Water District, on the east side of Meadows Parkway approximately 1000 feet north of Rancho California Road at 41280 Placer Lafite, formerly 31008 Rancho California Road, subject to the Conditions of Approval set forth on Exhibit A, attached hereto, and incorporated herein by this reference.

BMS COMMUNICATIONS IATC SYNERGYDEvELoPMENT SERvrCEs, LLC ci Igldila Letter of Justification 1. The proposed conditional use will not be detrimental to the public health, safety or welfare, nor be materially injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity, Unlike other land uses, which can be spatially determined through the General Plan or other land use plans, the location of wireless telecommunications facilities are based on technical requirements which include service area,. geographical elevations, alignment with neighboring sites and customer demand components. Placement within the urban geography is dependent on these requirements. Accordingly, wireless telecommunication facilities have been located adjacent to and within all major land use categories including residential, commercial, industrial, open space, etc. proving to be compatible in all locations. The proposed facility at the subject location will not be detrimental to the character of development in the neighborhood for the following reasons. It will be unstaffed, have no impact on circulation systems, and generate no noise, odor, smoke, or any other adverse impacts to adjacent land uses. The proposed facility will allow commuters and residents within the coverage area wireless access to the rapidly expanding communications infrastructure by providing voice and data transmission services not currently available. The installation of antenna sectors and transmission equipment will not result in any material changes to the character of the local community. This proposed wireless telecommunications facility will operate in full compliance with all state and federal regulations including the Telecommunications Act of 1996. 2. The proposed conditional use is compatible with existing and future uses to the extent those are known, and will comply with each of the applicable provisions of the Zoning Ordinance...; Since their introduction, wireless telecommunications systems have proven to be an invaluable communications tool in the event of emergencies (traffic accidents, fires, etc.) and natural disasters (earthquakes, floods, etc.) where normal land line communications are often disrupted, overlooked, or inaccessible during and after an event has occurred. This service and similar technology are utilized by numerous governmental and quasi-governmental agencies that provide emergency service. Wireless telecommunications systems, including cellular telephones, have also proven to be invaluable tools in business communications and everyday personal use. In this sense, wireless telecommunications system networks are desirable in the interest of public convenience, health, safety, and welfare, and thus are proper in relation to the development of the community. The proposed project will/does not incur automobile use or pedestrian access. BMS COMMUNICATIONS INC. SMRCYDEVELOPMENTSERVICEs, LLC 3. If the proposed Conditional Use Permit affects land located within the coastal zone, the proposed conditional use will comply with the provisions of the land use plan of the Certified Local Coastal Program This project is not located within the coastal zone. 4. Based upon information available at the time of approval, adequate utilities, access roads, drainage and other necessary facilities exist or will be provided to serve the proposed use. This project will have adequate utilities provided to it by the existing building that it will be located on. 4. State the reasons for the proposed facilities location, design and height. Careful care and consideration was given in selecting the location, design and height of this proposed co-location. The first factor used in determining this proposed location is this proposed co- location site was previously owned and operated by Cingular Wireless. The existing site was conveyed to from Cingular Wireless to T-Mobile, this site must be replaced to maintain the coverage lapse that will exist in the same location. To choose the optimal replacement location, a radio frequency engineer and a deployment team are dispatched to the location to determine the proposed site feasibility and if there are any other alternatives. Due to the location of the existing facility at the top of a hill and the geographical outlay of the area, the proposed location is the only location to meet the coverage objective. By co-locating and replacing this existing approved facility with a stealth design, which was previously approved for the same subject property, it is believed that the visual impact of this proposal will be visually less intrusive than the existing facility and actually enhance it. The design of a fake pine tree was chosen based on the former approval of a monopine at the same subject property and that the proposed monopine will enhance the look of the existing facility due to the fact that the existing facility is a non-stealth design. The height was determined by the required separation of the proposed antennas from the existing antennas to avoid interference and have an operation facility that meets the coverage objective. It was also necessary to extend the height to yield a stealth design to maintain the integrity of a tree design.

ITEM 6 STAFF REPORT - PLANNING CITY OF TEMECULA PLANNING COMMISSION DATE OF MEETING: May 20, 2009 PREPARED BY: Dale West, Case Planner APPLICANT NAME: City of Temecula PROJECT Long Range Planning Project Number LR09-0007, an Ordinance to SUMMARY: allow wind energy conversion systems within various zoning districts in the City of Temecula CEQA: Negative Declaration per Article 6 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations RECOMMENDATION: City Council approval of Ordinance BACKGROUND SUMMARY On May 6, 2009 staff presented the proposed Small Wind Energy Conversion Ordinance to the Planning Commission. At that meeting, the Commission asked that the following concerns be addressed by staff: • Clarify the Ordinance so that homeowners who reside within HOA's understand that their CC&Rs may not allow wind energy systems • Require a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for applications in the Open Space (OS), Parks and Recreation (PR), and Highway Tourist (HT) zoning districts • Allow an increase in height from 60 feet to 80 feet in the Hillside Residential (HR), Rural Residential (RR), and Vey Low Density Residential (VL) zoning districts • Provide a minimum setback from neighboring residential dwellings within these the Hillside Residential (HR), Rural Residential (RR), and Vey Low Density (VL) Residential zoning districts • Clarify the prohibition of small wind energy conversion systems along Scenic Highway Corridors • Modify the ridgeline restrictions so that proposed ridgeline setback requirements apply only to the western escarpment ridgeline. Staff has prepared a revised draft Small Wind Energy Conversion System Ordinance addressing each of the above mentioned concerns. ANALYSIS Pursuant to the discussion from the May 6, 2009 Planning Commission meeting, staff has revised the standards for allowing small wind energy conversion systems by clarifying the approval process, height and setback requirements, restricted locations, and by incorporating language referring the potential CC&R restrictions for small wind energy conversion systems as follows: Approval Process The Planning Commission expressed concerns with the proposed approval process of small wind energy conversion systems. The Commission suggested that systems proposed within the Highway Tourist (HT), Open Space (OS), and Park and Recreation (PR) zoning districts and typically smaller lot zoning districts undergo a higher level review, whereas, the Commission felt that a staff level review for systems proposed within the larger rural lot zoning districts was appropriate. Additionally, the Commissioners expressed the importance for public input into the approval process of these systems. Based on the Planning Commission comments, staff proposes the following approval process: • For small wind energy conversion systems proposed in the Hillside Residential (HR), Rural Residential (RR), and Very Low Density Residential (VL), Low Density Residential (L-1), Low Density Residential (L-2), zoning districts, an Administrative Development Plan application will be required and may be administratively approved by staff. If during the application review period for systems proposed within the above mentioned zoning districts, staff receives written correspondence expressing concerns with, or objecting to, the approval of a small wind energy conversion system as proposed by the applicant, the project may be referred to the Director of Planning or the Planning Commission for consideration. • For small wind energy conversion systems proposed in the Low Medium Density Residential (LM), Medium Density Residential (M), High Density Residential (H), Community Commercial (CC), Neighborhood Commercial (NC), Service Commercial (SC), Professional Office (PO), Business Park (BP), Light Industrial (LI), and Public Institutional (PI) zoning districts, an Administrative Development Plan application will be required, and a public hearing held by the Director of Planning will be required for approval of the proposed project. • For small wind energy conversion systems proposed within the Highway Tourist (HT), Open Space (OS), and Park and Recreation (PR) zoning districts, an application for a Conditional Use Permit will be required, and a public hearing held by the Planning Commission will be required for approval of the proposed project. • All proposed small wind energy conversion systems will require notification of property owners within 300 feet of the site. Height Limit The Planning Commission expressed several concerns with the height requirements for small wind energy conversion systems. The discussion included raising the maximum allowable height of systems within the Hillside Residential (HR), Rural Residential (RR), and Very Low Density Residential (VL) zoning districts, reducing the maximum allowable height of systems in the Highway Tourist (HT) zoning district, and requiring more Planning Commission oversight for systems taller than 60 feet. Based on the Planning Commission comments, staff proposes the following height standards: • For small wind energy conversion systems within the Low Density Residential (L-1 and L-2), Low Medium Density Residential (LM), Medium Density Residential (M), High Density Residential (H), Neighborhood Commercial (NC), and Community Commercial 2 (CC) zoning districts, the maximum height shall not exceed the maximum building height of the zoning district in which the system is located. • For small wind energy conversion systems within the Highway Tourist (HT), Service Commercial (SC), Professional Office (PO), Business Park (BP), Light Industrial (LI), Public Institutional (PI), Open Space (OS), and Public Park and Recreation (PR) zoning districts, the maximum height shall not exceed 60 feet. • For small wind energy conversion systems within the Hillside Residential (HR), Rural Residential (RR), and Very Low Density Residential (VL) zoning districts, the maximum height shall not exceed 80 feet. Setback Requirement The Planning Commission suggested increasing the setback requirement for small wind energy conversion systems that are not attached to structures and adjacent to residential dwellings. As such, staff is proposing setback requirements as follows: • For attached small wind energy conversion systems, the minimum setback from the side and rear yards is five feet. • For freestanding small wind energy conversion systems within the Hillside Residential (HR), Rural Residential (RR), and Very Low Density Residential (VL), Service Commercial (SC), Professional Office (PO), Business Park (BP), Light Industrial (LI), Public Institutional (PI), Open Space (OS), and Public Park and Recreation (PR) zoning districts, the minimum setback from the side and rear yards, including guy wires and anchors is 25 feet. If a freestanding small wind energy conversion system is located on a property that is adjacent to a residential dwelling, then the setback from the adjacent dwelling shall be equal to at least the height of the proposed small wind energy conversion system. Location The Planning Commission requested clarification regarding the prohibition of small wind energy conversion systems within Scenic Highway Corridors and along ridgelines. During the Commission meeting, staff indicated that 1-15 south of Temecula is listed as a scenic highway corridor. Through additional research, staff found that Section 260 of the Streets and Highways Code identifies 1-15 from State Route 76 to State Route 91 as an "eligible" highway for designation as a scenic highway corridor; however, at this time the 1-15 has not been "designated" as a scenic highway corridor by Caltrans. Following staff's research, staff is recommending that the language in Section 8 of the proposed Ordinance prohibiting the location of small wind energy conversion systems within a scenic highway corridor be retained in the Ordinance. The reason for this recommendation is to allow the proposed ordinance to apply to future potential scenic highway corridor designations, should Caltrans make such a decision. Additionally, the Planning Commission requested staff to clarify the prohibition of small wind energy conversion systems along ridgelines. The intent of this restriction is to protect the visual aesthetics of the prominent escarpment ridgeline to the west of the 1-15 freeway. Staff is recommending new language which specifies that small wind energy conversion systems are not allowed within 300 feet from the top of the western escarpment ridgeline. 3 Additional Clarification Staff is recommending the following additional minor clarifications to the draft Ordinance: • Language added which notifies an applicant about the potential for determining if FAA approval is required. • Language added which notifies an applicant to determine if a small wind energy conversion system is allowed pursuant to the CC&Rs. • Language added to give the reviewing body the authority to determine if the scale of the proposed small wind energy conversion system is consistent with the surrounding area. LEGAL NOTICING REQUIREMENTS Notice of the public hearing was published in the Californian on March 24, 2009. ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION Staff has reviewed the project in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and, based on an initial study, has determined the project will not have a significant impact on the environment; therefore, a Negative Declaration has been prepared for the project pursuant to Article 6 of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations.
