ACTION: Schedule Public Hearing.
Description
Verizon Wireless has submitted an application under Sections 19-17 and 8-351 of the Code of Ordinances to request a conditional rezoning for the placement of a personal wireless service facility on Lot R04-022 on Falmouth Road.
At their meeting on August 8, 2016, the Town Council received this application and voted to send it to the Planning Board to review, solicit public comment, and offer recommendations back to the Council. The Council also requested that a peer review be conducted for the Radio Frequency report.
After their initial presentation to the Council, but before their review by the Planning Board, the applicant amended their original proposal by increasing the proposed tower height to 110 feet. Their amended application is attached. The balloon test, photo simulations, radio frequency report and its peer review all reflect a 110' tower.
As noted in the staff memo from August 2016 (attached) the next step in the approval process is a public hearing at the Council level.
