DISCUSSION Request of Applicant Omnipoint Communications, Inc. a subsidiary of T-Mobile USA, Inc. is requesting approval of a conditional use permit to install cellular antennas within a roof mounted dome at 5111 West Edinger Avenue. Property Description The property is located within the Community Commercial (C-1) zoning district and has a General Plan land use designation of General Commercial (GC) (Exhibit 1). The property sits on the border of Santa Ana and Fountain Valley and is bounded on all four sides by residential property. Mile Square Park is located southwest of the project site (Exhibit 2). The subject property is approximately 5.1 acres in size and is improved with a retail shopping center. There is currently an existing roof mounted cellular facility on the property which is attached to the central tower of the retail center. Project Description The facility consists of three new arrays comprising a total of 12 new antennas screened inside a roof mounted dome. The antennas will be painted the same color as the dome so that they will not be viewable from EXHIBIT A 31 A-2 Conditional Use Permit No. 2007-06 May 14, 2007 Page 2 any building elevation. The dome has been designed to match the color and shape of the awnings that currently exist on the building. Mechanical equipment for the antennas will be located on the ground level inside of a new 10-foot by 20-foot masonry enclosure at the rear of the site. The enclosure will be finished and painted to match the building. Boston Ivy and irrigation will be provided at the base of the equipment enclosure. There will be no exterior meters, cabinets or conduit visible on the building or outside of the equipment room with the exception of cable trays that will run across the roof and be screened by the existing building parapet (Exhibit 3). The antennas and dome are located a minimum of 200 feet from the adjacent property which is used and zoned for residential purposes. The height of the dome is 15 feet tall as measured from the finished roof, although eight feet of this height will be hidden from view behind the existing roof parapet. The height of the building with the dome structure is 35 feet, measured from ground level. Analysis of the Issues In July 1988, the City Council adopted an ordinance to regulate Wireless Communication facilities constructed in the City. Major wireless facilities are required to have a stealth design and be located on a building or in an area that provides the greatest amount of visual screening. These antennas also require the approval of a conditional use permit. The municipal code sets forth an order of preference with regard to the location of cellular antennas. The first choice is to locate these facilities on a building with screening that is compatible with architecture, color, texture, and/or materials of a building. In the case of the proposed project, the antennas are screened within a roof mounted dome that matches the color and material of building awnings, which are a prominent architectural feature of the shopping center. The applicant has explored alternatives to the dome structure, such as stealthing the facility within a tree structure, flag pole and light standard. However, the dome has been determined to be a more creative alternative for this particular location. A conditional use permit is required because the antennas exceed the 10-foot height limit, as measured from the floor of the roof, necessary for a Land Use Certificate approval. 31 A-3 Conditional Use May 14, 2007 Page 3 Permit No. 2007-06 City code requires that cellular facilities be located a minimum of 140 feet from property that is zoned or used for residential purposes. The proposed antennas meet this requirement as they are approximately 200 feet from residentially zoned property. The proposed cellular antennas will provide a benefit to the community by reducing service gaps in the area and providing additional calling capacity for T-Mobile cellular customers in the City of Santa Ana. Further, the proposed cellular facility is designed in conformance with the City's adopted Wireless Communications Facility Ordinance and will provide needed service to the southwest section of the City. Based upon the above analysis and findings, staff recommends that the Planning Commission approve Conditional Use Permit No. 2007-06 as conditioned. CEQA Compliance This project was reviewed in accordance with the Guidelines for the California Environmental Quality Act. The project is exempt from further review pursuant to Section 15303. This Class 3 exemption allows in-fill developments for the construction and location of limited numbers of new, small facilities or structures. Categorical Exemption Environmental Review No. 2005-182 will be filed for this project.

The Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana hereby finds, determines and declares as follows: A. Conditional Use Permit No. 2007-06 came before the Planning Commission of the City of Santa Ana for a duly noticed public hearing on May 14, 2007. B. Conditional Use Permit No. 2007-06 has been filed with the City of Santa Ana seeking to allow the installation of cellular antennas within a roof mounted dome at the property located at 5111 West Edinger Avenue. C. Pursuant to Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 41-198.10, a Conditional Use Permit is required for major wireless facilities. D. Santa Ana Municipal Code Section 41-638 authorizes the Planning Commission to grant a conditional use permit upon making certain findings. Will the proposed use provide a service or facility which will contribute to the general well being of the neighborhood or community? The proposed roof mounted dome with hidden cellular antennas will provide a service to Santa Ana residents, businesses and motorists who subscribe to T-Mobile wireless service by reducing the gaps in digital cellular service and providing additional calling capacity for its users, especially for those users traveling in the southwest portion of the City and surrounding area. 2. Will the proposed use under the circumstances of the particular case be detrimental to the health, safety, or general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity? Resolution No. 2007-23 Page 1 of 8 31A-14 Federal law exempts {ocal jurisdictions from regulating health related issues as these issues are covered under Federal laws. However, the proposed facility will be in compliance with both the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) safety regulations. 3. Will the proposed use adversely affect the present economic stability or future economic development of properties surrounding the area? The proposed cellular facility will be compatible with the surrounding area and will not adversely affect the economic viability in the area as the cellular antennas are hidden from view within a roof mounted dome that is compatible with the color and material of building awnings, which are a prominent architectural feature of the shopping center. The antennas will reduce service gaps in cellular service and providing additional calling capacity for its users, especially for those users traveling in the southwest portion of the city. Investment in the property will benefit future economic development of properties in the surrounding area. 4. Will the proposed use comply with the regulations and conditions specified in Chapter 41 for such use? The municipal code sets forth an order of preference with regard to the location of cellular antennas. The first choice is to locate these facilities on a building with screening that is compatible with architecture, color, texture, and/or materials of a building. In the case of the proposed project, the antennas are screened within a roof mounted dome that matches the color and material of building awnings, which are a prominent architectural feature of the shopping center. In addition, City code requires that cellular facilities be located a minimum of 140 feet from property that is zoned or used for residential purposes. The proposed antennas meet this requirement as they are approximately 200 feet from residentially zoned property and further to the nearest house. The cellular facility has been designed to comply with the regulations and conditions identified in Chapter 41 of the Santa Ana Municipal Code for a major wireless facility. Resolution No. 2007-23 Page 2 of 8 31A-15 5. Will the proposed use adversely affect the General Plan or any specific plan of the City? The proposed roof mounted cellular facility will not adversely affect the General Plan as cellular facilities, designed to be compatible with the surrounding environment, are consistent with the goals and objectives of the General Commercial (GC) General Plan land use designation. E. This project was reviewed in accordance with the Guidelines for the California Environmental Quality Act. The project is exempt from further review pursuant to Section 15303. This Class 3 exemption allows in-fill developments for the construction and location of limited numbers of new, small facilities or structures. Categorical Exemption Environmental Review No. 2005-182 will be filed for this project. Section 2. The Planning Commission after conducting the public hearing hereby approves Conditional Use Permit No. 2007-06 as conditioned in Exhibit "A" attached hereto and incorporated herein. This decision is based upon the evidence submitted at the above said hearing, which includes but is not limited to: the Request for Planning Commission Action dated May 14. 2007 and exhibits attached thereto; and the public testimony, all of which are incorporated herein by this reference. ADOPTED this 14th day of May, 2007 by the following vote: AYES: Commissioners: Alderete, Betancourt, De La Torre, Gartner, Leo, Mill, Munoz (7) NOES: Commissioners: None (0) ABSENT: Commissioners: None (0) ABSTENTIONS: Commissioners: None (0) Christopher Leo Chairman APPROVED AS TO FORM: Joseph W.

Date: Planning Commission Secretary City of Santa Ana Resolution No. 2007-23 Page 4 of 8 31A-17 Conditions for Approval for Conditional Use Permit No 2007-06 Conditional Use Permit No. 2007-06 is approved subject to compliance, to the reasonable satisfaction of the Planning Manager, with all applicable sections of the Santa Ana Municipal Code, the California Administrative Code, the Uniform Fire Code, the Uniform Building Code and all other applicable regulations. The applicant must comply in full with each and every condition listed below rior to exercising the rights conferred by this conditional use permit. The applicant must remain in compliance with all conditions listed below throughout the life of the conditional use permit. Failure to comply with each and every condition may result in the revocation of the conditional use permit. A. Planning Division 1. The applicant must comply with all conditions and requirements of the Development Review Committee for the development project (DP No. 2005-65). 2. Any amendment to this conditional use permit must be submitted to the Planning Division for review. At that time, staff will determine if administrative relief is available or the conditional use permit must be amended. 3. The proposed cellular antennas shall be located within a roof mounted dome which shall be the same color and utilize the same materials as the shopping center awnings that they are intended to mimic. The antennas shall be painted the same color as the dome. 4. The height of the roof mounted dome shall not be higher than eight feet as measured from the top of the building parapet and no higher than 35 feet as measured from ground level. 5. The ground level equipment cabinets shall be located within a masonry enclosure with metal gates. The enclosure shall be finished and painted to match the materials and texture of the building. 6. There shall be no exterior meters, cabinets, equipment, conduit or related appurtenances visible on the building or outside of the equipment enclosure with the exception of cable trays that will run across the roof and be screened by the existing building parapet as the result of this installation. 7. Boston Ivy with associated irrigation shall be planted and maintained on the equipment enclosure as shown on the approved plan. Resolution No. 2007-23 Page 5 of S 31A-18 8. The permit applicant recognizes that the frequencies used by the cellular facility located at 5111 West Edinger Avenue are extremely close to the frequencies used by the City of Santa Ana for Public Safety. This proximity will require extraordinary "comprehensive advanced planning and frequency coordination" engineering measures to prevent interference, especially in the choice of frequencies and radio ancillary hardware. This is encouraged in the "Best Practices Guide' published by the Association of Public-Safety Communications Officials-International, Incorporated (APCO), and as endorsed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Prior to the issuance of any permits to install the facility, (permit applicant) shall meet in good faith to coordinate the use of frequencies and equipment with the Communications Division of the Orange County Sheriff-Coroner Department to minimize, to the greatest extent possible, any interference with the Public Safety 800 MHz Countywide Coordinated Communications System (CCCS). Similar consideration shall be given to any other existing or proposed wireless communications facility that may be located on the subject property. 9. At all times, the permit applicant shall not prevent the City of Santa Ana from having adequate spectrum capacity on the City's 800 MHz radio frequency. 10. Before activating its facility, the permit applicant will submit to a post- installation test to confirm that "advanced planning and frequency coordination" of the facility was successful in not interfering with the City of Santa Ana Public Safety radio equipment. This test will be conducted by the Communications Division of the Orange County Sheriff-Coroner Department or a Division-approved contractor at the expense of the applicant. This post-installation testing process shall be repeated for every proposed frequency addition and/or change to confirm the intent of the "frequency planning" process has been met. 11. The permit applicant shall provide a 24-hour phone number to which interference problems may be reported. This condition will also apply to all existing facilities in the City of Santa Ana. 12. The permit applicant will provide a "single point of contact" in its Engineering and Maintenance Departments to insure continuity on all interference issues. The name, telephone number, fax number and a-mail address of that person shall be provided to the City's designated representative upon activation of the facility. 13. The permit applicant shall insure that the lessee or other user(s) shall comply with the terms and conditions of this permit, and shall be Resolution No. 2007-23 Page 6 of 8 31A-19 responsible for the failure of any lessee or other users under the control of permit applicant to comply. 14. The permit applicant shall provide a coverage and cell site location map for each existing and proposed facility in Santa Ana. 15. Locate all equipment and related appurtenances (appleton plug and electric meter) on the inside of the equipment enclosure or inside the building and underground all electrical power from the utility source shown on the approved site plan. 16. The approval of Conditional Use Permit No. 2007-06 shall expire five years from the date of City Council approval. 17. The property owner shall be responsible for the removal of any graffiti on the shopping center site within 24 hours of the occurrence.
