Staff attempted to notify properties within 700 feet of the public hearing pertaining to the request. Observations: The site is zoned B-1 Business and so are the surrounding parcels. The applicant is proposing to install a 6 foot diameter satellite dish antenna, 2-8 foot stick antennae and one 6"-8" diameter GPS antenna on the City water tower. There will also be two 6' x 2' x 2' equipment cabinets that are proposed to be stored in the water tower equipment room and therefore no screening of the equipment cabinets will be required. There will be no personnel stationed at the site on a permanent basis. The permit is drafted to require any visits to the site to be in the company of a City employee. The existing site access is sufficient for PageMarts needs. The City Council approved the proposed lease agreement with PageMart at their July 28 Council meeting. The City will receive $1,000.00 per month from the tenancy. The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing regarding the request for a conditional use permit on August 4 and no written or verbal comments from the public were received.
