ON THE REQUEST TO REZONE THE SUBJECT. PROPERTY FROM PD PLANNED DEVELOPMENT TO PD, GENERALLY FOR A MIXED USES, INCLUDING COMMERCIAL RETAIL OFFICE, MULTI FAMILY, RESIDENTIAL AND OPEN SPACE. THIS IS THE NORTH NORTH OF THE INTERSECTION OF LORD HOWELL PARKWAY. AND YOU WAS HOW WE 75 MISS STRICKLAND. YOU. TERRY, DO YOU MIND PUTTING UP THE PRESENTATION? THANK YOU. SO WILSON. MIXED USE IS AT THE CORNER OF LOT. HOW AND 75. AND IT IS A PROPOSED PD DPT, WHICH PLANNED DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT. UM LIKE YOU'VE STATED IT'S FOR GENERAL MIXED YOU SO COMMERCIAL RETAIL OFFICE, MULTI FAMILY AND OPEN SPACE. THE REASON REASON IS BROUGHT BEFORE YOU ALL DUE TO THE FACT THAT THERE WAS A LAND SWAP BETWEEN YOU'RE JOINING PROPERTY OWNERS WHERE YOU CAN SEE. IN THE CURRENT REGULATING PLAN FOR THIS PD, WHICH IS ALSO A MIXED USE THAT ALLOWS FOR THE SAME ITEMS. THIS IS THE PROPOSED REGULATING PLAN THAT SHOWS THE DIFFERENTIATION OF THE LAND SWAP RIGHT THERE IN THE LEFT HAND CORNER. THEY'RE PROPOSING THIS DUE TO THAT LAND SPOT SO THAT ALL OF THIS. PIECE OF PROPERTY WILL BE UNDER THE SAME PD. THEY'RE ALSO GOING TO BE PROPOSING SOME MODIFICATIONS TO PRESERVATION AND LANDSCAPE TO ACCOUNT FOR SOME FLOODPLAIN STAFFS. PROFESSIONAL OPINION IS THAT THE EXISTING AND PROPOSED ZONING ALIGNS WITH OUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN. AND STAFF RECOMMENDS APPROVAL. I STAND FOR ANY QUESTIONS. THE QUESTIONS, CHRIS. ON THE LEGISLATION TO EXIT REFERENCES, CHANGING THE FLOODPLAIN AND THEN THE NEXT SENTENCE. TALKS ABOUT PLANTING TREES ARE THOSE.TWO CONNECTED. I'M NOT SURE HOW YOU PLANT TREES TO CHANGE THE FLOODPLAIN, SO I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S A SEPARATE ITEM OR SO THAT IS PART OF THE MITIGATION ITEMS, SO THEY HAVE ACTUALLY ALREADY SUBMITTED FOR A FLOOD STUDY. IT IS CONDITIONALLY APPROVED WITH THE CITY OF MCKINNEY, AND THEY'RE NOW WITHIN THE GRATING PORTION. WHENEVER WE SPOKE WITH THEM, THE ADDITIONAL LANDSCAPING WAS TO HELP WITH THAT MITIGATION FOR THE FLOODPLAIN CONCERNS.
OKAY? OH LAST APPLICANT A LITTLE BIT MORE ON THE AREAS OF CHANGING SO JUST TO BE CLEAR THE MULTI FAMILY ALL THE DIFFERENT ELEMENTS OF THE ORIGINAL P D VERSUS WHAT WE'RE.
WOULD BROUGHT BEFORE US ALL THOSE ELEMENTS. THEY'RE STAYING THE SAME. IT'S JUST KIND OF THE REALLOCATION OF THEM KIND OF SHIFTING HIM AROUND TO ACCOUNT FOR THE ADDITIONAL PROPERTY AND TOTAL ACREAGE OF THOSE DIFFERENT DEVELOPMENTS DID THAT CHANGE OR ALL GENERALLY ABOUT THE SAME? IT'S ALL GENERALLY ABOUT THE SAME. THE. I THINK IT'S JUST A COUPLE OF ACRES BETWEEN THE TWO. YOU CAN SEE THAT IT STILL HAS THE SAME AMOUNT OF MULTI FAMILY WITH THE NEIGHBORHOOD MIXED USE IN THE SAME AMOUNT OF FREEWAY FOR THE COMMERCIAL ON OFFICE SPACE.
BETWEEN THE CURRENT AND THE PROPOSED YEAH. THE QUESTIONS OF MR KLAIN UNDER THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS THAT IS MARK DRAFT. WHERE'S, UH, OUR ATTACHMENT? THOSE ARE THE DEVELOPMENT REGULATIONS THAT WERE APPROVING. THAT IS CORRECT. QUESTION GOOD CATCH.

[Conduct a Public Hearing to Consider/Discuss/Act on a Request to Rezone the Subject Property from “PD” - Planned Development District to “PD” - Planned Development District, Generally to Modify the Development Standards and to Allow for a Telecommunications Tower, Located on the Southeast Corner of Bluestem Drive and Hidden Haven Drive]
PUBLIC HEARING REQUEST TO CONSIDER RE ZONE OF A SUBJECT PROPERTY FROM PD. TO PD TO MODIFY THE DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS AND TO ALLOW FOR A TELECOMMUNICATIONS TOWER. SAYS AT THE SOUTHEAST CORNER OF BLUE STIM DRIVE AND HIDDEN HAVEN, DR. THANK YOU. THAT'S THE APPLICANT IS PROPOSING TO REZONE APPROXIMATELY 10.7 ACRES OF LAND TO PD PLANE DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT WITH A BASE ZONING OF G C, WHICH IS OUR GOVERNMENT COMPLEX DISTRICT. ALLOWED USE OF THAT TELECOMMUNICATIONS TOWER AS YOU MENTIONED. S PROPOSED TO TELECOMMUNICATIONS TOWER WOULD BE OF A STEALTH MULTIPLE DESIGN. IT WOULD BE A MAXIMUM HEIGHT OF 80 FT WITH A FIVE FT. LIGHTNING ROD. AS PART OF THIS STUNNING REQUEST, THE APPLICANT HAS PROPOSED THAT THE MINIMUM SETBACK OF THE TELECOMMUNICATIONS TOWER IN ANY PROPERTY LINE BE A MINIMUM OF 167 FT. THE AFRICANS ALSO PROPOSING TO INCREASE THE REQUIRED HEIGHT OF THE MASONRY SCREENING WALL FROM SIX FT. 28 FT ON ALSO PROVIDE EVERGREEN SHRUBS ALONG THE NORTH AND WEST SIDE. OF THAT SCREENING DEVICE. AS PRETTY AS PROPOSED. GIVES ME THE TELECOMMUNICATIONS TOWER LOCATION DOES NOT APPEAR TO INTERFERE WITH THE DAY TO DAY ACTIVITIES OF THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL IS LOCATED IN THE DISTANCE AT LEAST TWICE THE HEIGHT OF THE TOWER FROM ANY PROPERTY LINE. GIVEN THESE FACTORS, STAFF DOES NOT HAVE ANY OBJECTIONS, OPPOSE REZONING REQUEST AND RECOMMENDS APPROVAL AND I'LL STAND FOR ANY QUESTIONS. I DO ALSO WANT TO MENTION AS WELL THAT I PASSED OUT. TWO LETTER OF HIS OPPOSITION THAT WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE PACKET. WE HAVE RECEIVED APPROXIMATELY 37 LETTERS, OPPOSITION IN TOTAL.THESE CONCERNS RANGE FROM THE LOCATION OF THE TELECOMMUNICATIONS TOWER ON THE SITE TO HEALTH AND SAFETY. CONCERNS OF THOSE RADIOS ARE THOSE ARE F EMISSIONS. PER THE TELECOMMUNICATIONS ACT OF 1996. THE CITY HAS LIMITED AUTHORITY ON THE LAND USE DECISIONS ON MAY NOT MAKE DECISIONS AND BASED ON THOSE ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS IN OR HEALTH HEALTH CONCERNS FROM THOSE RADIO FREQUENCY EMISSIONS. AND WITH THAT I WILL SEE HIM FOR ANY QUESTIONS. THANK YOU, GAIL. IN THEIR QUESTIONS, STAFF JUST AHEAD. I GOT A QUESTION. YES SIR. ARE THERE ANY OTHER SCHOOLS SIMILAR TO THIS THAT HAVE THE TOWER ALREADY? NOT TO MY KNOWLEDGE. AH LOT OF THE OTHER PROPERTIES WERE WITH CHURCHES WERE ADJACENT TO A COMMERCIAL PROPERTY. WITH THE TALK WITH THE DELEGATES WILL BE THE FIRST SCHOOL BUT TO MY KNOWLEDGE, YES, SIR. AND YOU THE CHURCHES. THIS IS AN AVERAGE HEIGHT THAT THEY'RE ASKING FOR THERE. IS IT? IS THERE SOMETHING DIFFERENT? AND YOU MAY HAVE SAID IT. I WOULDN'T. IT'S OKAY FROM PREVIOUS REQUESTS. SO THIS PARTICULAR REQUEST THEY'RE REQUESTING THAT 80 FT HIGH TELECOMMUNICATION TOWER WITH THAT FIVE FT. LIGHTNING ROD WE HAVE SEEN SIMILAR TO THAT PREVIOUS REQUESTS. TELECOMMUNICATIONS TOWER THAT WAS ABOUT 100 FT TO THE HEIGHT OF THE LIGHTNING ROD, SO THIS IS LOWER THAN THE PREVIOUS.
TELECOMMUNICATIONS RITZ ONLY REQUESTS WE HAD AND WAY IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S PRETTY CLOSE TO THE SCHOOL. CHURCHES I MEAN, ARE THEY RIGHT NEXT TO THE BUILDING. NEED KIND OF A TEST
[00:15:07]
OR ANYTHING THAT. CERTAINLY SO WITH SOME TELECOMMUNICATIONS ARE IN THE CITY BEGINNING WE DO SEE SOME CLOSER THAN OTHERS. SOME ARE FARTHER APART SOMEWHERE ON SEPARATE LOTS, THIS ONE IN PARTICULAR THE APPLICANTS WORKED WITH PROSPEROUS D. I BELIEVE WITH THE LOCATION, TUCKEY GETTING IT INTO THE SIDE OF THE SCHOOL. IN BELIEVE IT'S A PROPOSED JIM.I'LL DEFER THAT TO THE APPLICANT WHAT THAT USE OF THE SCHOOL IS THAT PART OF THE SCHOOL IS BEING USED TO ASKING ME. YEAH. SO THERE'S REGULATIONS. EXCUSE ME THE DISTANCE FROM THE PROPERTY LINE, BUT THERE IS NOT ANY REGULATIONS ADJACENT TO STRUCTURES AS FAR AS DISTANCE. NO SIR, AS PRETTY PROPOSED LAYOUT. OF THAT PROPOSED TOWER.
HERE SO THIS WOULD BE THAT PROPOSED TELECOMMUNICATIONS BASED ON THIS LAYOUT THAT THEY PROVIDED THEY'RE PROPOSING ABOUT 8.5 FT FROM THE CENTER OF THE POLE TO THE EDGE OF THAT BUILDING, OKAY? OTHER QUESTIONS. CAITLYN. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. GOOD EVENING, LOUIS.
TAKE THIS OFF. APOLOGIZE MY NAME IS MASON GRIFFIN AND I REALIZE RESIDE AT 64 23 TO THE PLANE IN DALLAS, TEXAS, AND I'M HERE REPRESENTING HIM BELL TOWERS IN CONNECTION WITH THIS APPLICATION. STAFF'S DONE A GREAT JOB SUMMARIZING THE PROJECT. A COUPLE OF THINGS THAT DIDN'T WANNA HIGHLIGHT IS WE'RE REALLY HERE AND ANSWER TWO QUESTIONS. IS THERE A DEMONSTRATED NEED FOR THIS TOWER IN THE AREA? AND IS THIS PROPOSED PLAN THE LEAST INTRUSIVE MEANS OF ADDRESSING PRESSING THAT NEED. UM, IN YOUR PACKET. I BELIEVE YOU. YOU YOU'VE YOU'VE RECEIVED PROPAGATION MAPS THAT HAVE BEEN PREPARED BY VERIZON WIRELESS WHO'S COMMITTED TO BEING ON THE TOWER. 18 EIGHTIES, EXPRESSED INTEREST IN THIS TOWER AND HAS SIMILAR COVERAGE GAPS IN THEIR AREA. THE GAP EXISTS MAINLY BETWEEN VIRGINIA PARKWAY IN WEST RIDGE BOULEVARD. AND THIS TOWER REALLY SETS WHAT'S IT DEAD CENTER AND PROVIDE A GREAT COVERAGE OF THE AREA? UM UH, WE'VE WE PROPOSED. TONTO INITIALLY SITE THE TOWER AND THE FIRE STATION THAT'S ACROSS THE STREET. BUT A ZOO. WE UNDERSTAND THAT THE CITY HAS A POLICY THAT PROHIBITS THIS KIND OF INFRASTRUCTURE ON PUBLIC SAFETY SAFETY FACILITIES. MAKE A REASONABLE POLICY. AND SO WE THEN MOVED OVER TO THE PROSPEROUS E ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.
UM. REALLY THAT THIS TOWER IS INTENDED TO ADDRESS PUBLIC SAFETY NEEDS BY PROVIDING SAFE AND RELIABLE EMERGENCY NUMBER ONE SERVICE WITH INCREASING NUMBERS OF PEOPLE DROPPING THEIR LANDLINES MYSELF INCLUDED. UM AND SITUATIONS THAT ARISE WHERE? WHERE AH POWER MIGHT MIGHT NOT BE HAD OR SOMEONE IS REQUIRED TO USE THEIR WIRELESS PHONES WIRELESS DEVICE TO MAKE THEIR CALL. RECENT STATS INDICATE THAT OVER 80% OF 911 CALLS NATIONWIDE ARE NOW MADE ON PEOPLE'S CELL PHONES AS OPPOSED TO THEIR LAND LINES ON DSA. WHETHER IT'S AN IN SCHOOL SITUATION, SOMEONE IN THEIR HOME. OR IN THEIR CAR. THIS TOWER WOULD ADDRESS THAT THOSE PUBLIC SAFETY NEEDS AGAIN AS I DISCUSSED AND THAT THE INITIAL PROPOSAL WAS TO GO TO THE FIRE STATION. TONTO SIDE OURSELVES FURTHER AWAY FROM SOME SOME RESIDENTIAL CLOSER, OBVIOUSLY TO OTHERS. UM, BUT THIS THIS DESIGN IS INTENDED TO BE A ZVILLI, UM, UNOBTRUSIVE AS POSSIBLE. WE WERE USING THE SLIMMEST POSSIBLE MONOCLE DESIGN ON THE MARKET THESE DAYS. AND THE REASON FOR THE PROXIMITY TO THE SCHOOL'S GYMNASIUM WAS THE PRACTICE IN THE LOCATION AROUND THE SCHOOL WAS INTENDED TO CITE THE TOWERS CLOSE TO THE TALLEST PORTION OF THE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL. AGAIN HELP DISGUISE. THEA THE PROFILE OF THE TOP OF THE TOWER.
MASONRY WALL IS INDICATED, WILL BE EIGHT FT, NOT SIX FT, AS IS TYPICALLY REQUIRED FOR THE EXTENSIVE PROJECTS AND WILL BE MATCHED TO DESIGNED TO MATCH THE WALL OF THE AMAZING THAT THE SCHOOL UM. AGAIN AS IT WAS, IT WAS INDICATED THE TOWER IS GOING TO BE 80 FT. 85 FT WITH THE LIGHTNING ROD, WHICH IS LESS THAN HALF THE DISTANCE FROM THE CLOSEST PROPERTY LINE.
THE TYPICAL STANDARD THE MCCAIN REQUIRES IS TWICE THE DISTANCE FROM OUR PROPERTY LINE, AND SO.
WE'VE ACTUALLY MET. IT REALLY EXCEEDED THAT OR COME UNDER THAT SO SPEAK, AND SO I JUST HERE TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE AND PROVIDING THE INFORMATION I CAN. THANK YOU OTHER QUESTIONS. THIS. WHAT IS THE BASE DIAMETER OF THE POLE BASE? DAMON AROUND? DO YOU HAVE THAT INFORMATION? ROUGH WEINGARTEN HERE YOU CAN INTRODUCE HIMSELF. ALSO HERE REPRESENTING? YEP. THANK YOU. ROUGH WEINGARTEN, ZONING SPECIALIST WITH FOSTER 6 78
[00:20:08]
FRONT AVENUE NORTHWEST SWEET TO 15 AND GRAND RAPIDS, MICHIGAN. FOR 95, ALL FOUR I'M HERE ALSO ON BEHALF OF THE APPLICANT TEMPLE. I'LL SEE. UM. THE BASE DIAMETER. THE POLE. I BELIEVE IN THIS CASE IS APPROXIMATELY FIVE FT OR IN THAT IN THAT RANGE. I DON'T HAVE SPECIFIC.POWER AND FOUNDATION DRAWINGS ON THAT USUALLY DO THOSE AT A LATER STAGE AT THE BUILDING PERMIT STAGE TO DETAIL THE TOWER MANUFACTURER. BUT SHOULD BE AROUND THE FIVE FT. AREA. I CAN ALSO SPEAK TO THE QUESTION EARLIER ABOUT THE PART OF THE SCHOOL, THE GYMNASIUM WE DID INCLUDE A. LETTER FROM ENGINEER INDICATING THE TOWER BE DESIGNED TO THE LATEST CODES AND INDUSTRY SAFETY STANDARDS. AND THE PLACEMENT NEXT TO THE GYMNASIUM NOT ONLY ACHIEVES.
KIND OF SOME OF THE BLENDING WITH THE TALLEST WALL ON THE SCHOOL. IT'S ALSO AN AREA THAT IS DEFINITELY NOT A STORM REFUGE. IF YOU HAVE A HIGH WIND OR 22 EVENT, YOU DO NOT TAKE REFUGE IN THE GYMNASIUM. THAT'S PROBABLY THE WORST PLACE. TO BE SO, CITING IT NEXT TO THE GYMNASIUM PLACES THE TOWER AWAY FROM AREAS WHERE STUDENTS WOULD BE TAKING REFUGE IN HALLWAYS AND CLASSROOMS TYPE PERIOD. MAYBE THE ANSWER QUESTIONS AS WELL FROM YOU OR FROM THE PUBLIC AND PEOPLE. THERE ARE OTHER QUESTIONS. WAS THIS I'M TAKING THIS HAS BEEN APPROVED THROUGH THE PROSPEROUS TEA. SO WAS THAT DONE IN THEIR BOARD OR A STAFF LEVEL THEIR APPROVAL.
IT WAS REALLY I BELIEVE IT'S THE BOARD LEVEL TO APPROVE THE LEAST THE LEASE HAS BEEN SIGNED. DR GREG BRADFORD HAS BEEN OUR MAIN CONTACT OVER THERE. THE QUESTIONS. MR ONE GARDEN. WE MAY HAVE QUESTIONS OF YOU ON YOUR CO APPLICANTS LATER. DENY WHAT WE'LL ASK YOU TO DO WILL HAVE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND WE DO HAVE A NUMBER OF CARDS AND LETTERS, SO WE EXPECT. SOME PEOPLE TO COME TO THE PODIUM IF YOU WILL TAKE NOTES. AND THEN WE'LL HAVE SOME DIALOGUE WITH YOU AND IN THE STAFF. WHEN WE GET TO ROUTE THANK YOU, SIR. THANK YOU.
THANK YOU. OKAY? HERE'S HOW THIS PROCESS WORKS. WE'VE GOT A NUMBER OF CARDS YOU HAVE FILLED OUT. WE'LL READ THE NAME AND YOUR POSITION. ON THE ITEM, AND IF YOU ARE SPEAKING, YOU'LL COME TO THE PODIUM AND AGAIN HAVE THREE MINUTES TO SHOW YOUR THOUGHTS AND YOUR CONCERNS. IF YOU'RE WATCHING ON THE TV OR HAVE SUBMITTED A. LETTER OF WITH A POSITION VIA THE CITY'S OWN LINE PORTAL THAT WILL GO TO THE CITY COUNCIL IS PART OF OUR RECORDS ALSO WE HAVE RECEIVED SOME LETTERS TODAY. WE WILL NOT READ EACH LETTER. BUT PLEASE KNOW THAT IF YOU HAVE SUBMITTED ONE IT WILL GO TO THE CITY COUNCIL IS PART OF OUR RECORDS. SO WITH THAT WE WILL START OUR PUBLIC CURING IN THE FIRST CARD. IS RALPH WINE GARDEN. WE'VE HEARD YOUR. GOOD. YEAH.
NEXT CARD IS MASON GRIFFIN. I WISH TO SPEAK IN FAVOR, MASON GRIFFIN. UH, YOU'RE SNEAKY BACK THERE. GIVE ME YOUR CARDS FIRST. THE NEXT CARD IS KATHY HARNICK WISH TO SPEAK IN OPPOSITION. LITTLE AGAIN AND THANK YOU. I UNDERSTAND THAT THE MCKINNEY COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ACKNOWLEDGES THE NEED FOR CERTAIN PUBLIC AND PRIVATE INFRASTRUCTURE THAT SUPPORTS GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT IN CITY AND I UNDERSTAND THAT A BASE ZONING OF G C WOULD ALLOW SCHOOL DISTRICT'S TO PROVIDE SERVICES TO THE COMMUNITY, LIKE FIVE G TECHNOLOGY. HOWEVER, I DO FEEL WITH ALL THE RESPECT THAT LITTER INTENT FROM THE APPLICANT IS NOT COMPLETELY TRANSPARENT, HER ACCURATE. HONEST MENTIONED THE ELEVATION OF THE SCHOOL DUE TO THE HIGHER ELEVATION OF THE SCHOOL RESIDENTIAL HOMES ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE PROPERTY. CURRENTLY HAVE FULL UNOBSTRUCTED VIEW OF THE SCHOOL BUILDING THE SCHOOL DRIVEWAY, PARKING STALLS LAMPPOST AND DATED A STUDENT ACTIVITY. OUTDOOR STUDENT ACTIVITY. A SIMILAR PROJECT REQUESTS HAVE BEEN DENIED FOR INSTALLATION NEAR FIRE HOUSE AND THE SCHOOL DISTRICT WILL NOT ADHERE TO A PLAN THAT WOULD PLACE THE TOWER, THE FRONT OF THE SCHOOL. AND YET, FROM A VISUAL PERSPECTIVE, THE PROPOSED PLAN ON LEE PROVIDES FOR AN EIGHT FT SCREENING WALL.
OF AN 80 FT TOWER WITH FIVE FT ANTENNA. IN THE THREE FT HIGH SHRUBBERY THAT WOULD EVENTUALLY ONLY GROW TO JUST ABOVE THE TOP LEVEL. THE EIGHT FT WALL. THIS PROPOSE SCREENING STILL LEAVES NEARLY 70 FT. OF THE TOWER IN FULL VIEW OF PROPERTY OWNERS WHO HAVE FULL VIEW OF THE SCHOOL AND THE DRIVEWAY. THE WHOLE OFFENSE, THE SCREENING WALL AND THE SHRUBBERY AND DO NOTHING TO OBSTRUCT TO REMOVE THE VISUAL BLIGHT. THIS TOWER TOWER WILL CAUSE FOR NEIGHBORS
[00:25:01]
TO THE NORTH. THE NEIGHBORS TOO. THE WEST. THIS IS CONTRARY TO WHAT IS STATED IN THE PERSON PROPOSED OWNING REPORT. IN ADDITION, FROM A SAFETY PERSPECTIVE, THE PROPOSED PLAN WOULD INDEED BE WITHIN 140 FT. OUTDOOR PLAYING AREA STUDENTS IN THE OLDER PRIMARY GRADES USED THE NORTHSIDE SIDEWALK DRIVEWAY AND GREEN SPACE FOR DAY TO DAY CHILDHOOD. ACTIVITY OUTDOORS AND AS PEDESTRIAN AND VEHICLE TRAFFIC FLOWS PRIMARILY ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE BUILDING. OTHER ACTIVITY MAY ALSO BE IMPACTED. THIS IS CONTRARY TO WHAT IS STATED IN THE PROPOSED ZONING REPORT. GIVEN THESE FACTORS. I FEEL THIS PROJECT REQUEST IS NOT FULLY PROVIDE FEATURES THAT ENSURE EXCEPTIONAL QUALITY AS STATED IN THE REPORT, NOR DOES IT DEMONSTRATE INNOVATION THAT LITTLE LINE WITH OPTIMAL REGARD TO JOE ZONING STANDARDS. AND I CONTINUE. EXCUSE ME. I CONTINUED TO STRONGLY APPROACH THIS PROJECT AT THIS PARTICULAR SITE DUE TO VISUAL BLIGHT AND SAFETY CONCERNS. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MR NECK. SCARRED GARY HARNICK, SPEAKING IN OPPOSITION. UM. BUT I'D BE ABLE TO MOVE THIS TO A DIFFERENT UM DREAM. VERY LAST ONE. I WILL SEE WHERE THEIR SHOWS THAT YOU KNOW THE PRESIDENT TO TAKE THE PICTURE. OKAY. THAT'S WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR. SO THANK YOU. UM. WHETHER THAT PROSPEROUS HE REALIZES IT OR NOT, I FEEL THAT THE RESIDENTS OF SALE BOARD DR WERE TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF BY THE ICE TEA. THE CONSTRUCTION OF A SCHOOL HAD A GREATLY INCREASED ELEVATION. FROM THE ORIGINAL PROPERTY LEVEL MICS ARE BACK FENCE NEARLY USELESS FOR PRIVACY PURPOSES. BY APPROVING THIS REZONING AND ALLOWING AN 84 5 G CELL TOWER ON THE NORTH SIDE OF THE SCHOOL. I FEEL THAT THE RESIDENTS OF SALE BOARD DR ARE ONCE AGAIN BEING TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF BY THE PROSPER I, STEVE. IN ADDITION, AS REFERENCED IN A SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN EDITORIAL ARTICLE FROM 2019. THE TITLE OF THIS ARTICLES. WE HAVE NO REASON TO BELIEVE THAT FIVE G IS SAFE.THERE'S VALID SAFETY CONCERNS REGARDING FIVE G EXPOSURE OVER LONG PERIODS OF TIME. THE PROPOSED TOWER WILL BE IN A LOCATION PRECISELY. WHERE CHILDREN ARE CONGREGATING OUTSIDE THE SCHOOL. AND IF YOU TAKE A LOOK AT THAT PERSON STANDING THERE. DOWN IS WHERE A LOT OF THE KIDS ARE ACTIVE ON THAT SIDE OF THE SCHOOL. THE NORTH SIDE OF SCHOOLS US FOR PHYSICAL EDUCATION. THEY HAVE PAINTED NUMBER SQUARES ON THE SIDEWALK. FOUR GAMES, THE PORTABLE TETHER BALL STANDS OVER THERE THEY HAVE SOON BIKE RACKS. CONTRARY TO THE LETTER OF INTENT, THE PROPOSED FIVE G TOWER WILL NOT BE 140 FT. AWAY FROM WHERE CHILDREN HAVE ACTIVITIES. THIS IS ALSO EXACTLY WHERE CARS WAIT IN LINE EVERY SCHOOL DAY FOR STUDENT DROP OFF. AND PICK UP. WAS A RESIDENT OF SALE BOARD. DR. I ALSO HAVE A DIRECT CONNECTION.
THIS ISSUE AS MY GRANDSON IS A STUDENT AT FOR ELEMENTARY. IN THE LETTER IN A PROJECT LETTER OF INTENT, IT IS STATED THAT'S PROJECT WILL PROVIDE VERIZON AND 80 NT SERVICE TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD WHILE ALSO BENEFITING THE PROSPER. I S T. I CAN PERSONALLY VERIFY THAT I HAVE WIRELESS SERVICE. AT MY RESIDENCE. UM. AND IT'S AVAILABLE IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
WITH 37 RESPONSES REPORTED AS OPPOSED TO THE REZONING AND NOT EVEN ONE. IN SUPPORT OF IT.
FROM THE LOCAL NEIGHBORHOOD. WOULD SUGGEST THAT YOU LISTEN TO THESE RESPONSES. FOR ALL THESE REASONS, I RESPECTFULLY ASK. YOU AS A PLANNING AND ZONING OFFICIALS DO DENY THIS REZONING REQUEST. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MR HARNIK. THE NEXT CARD, APRIL. BRITISH. I DO NOT WISH TO SPEAK BUT HIM AND OPPOSITION. YOU CAN. IF YOU CAN STAND UP AND GET OVER HERE, YOU CAN CHANGE YOUR MIND. YEAH. APRIL APRIL REDDISH 10117 SO BORED DRIVE, I AM ACTUALLY AN ELEMENTARY EDUCATOR. AND AFTER JUST HEARING TO THE WHAT THEY WERE SAYING ABOUT THE PROPOSAL THAT THEY LOOKED AT THE FIRE STATION. IT COULD NOT PLAN THAT BECAUSE OF SAFETY CONCERNS AS AN ELEMENTARY TEACHER WHO TEACHES THOUSANDS OF KIDS EVERY DAY IN A BUILDING. I CAN'T UNDERSTAND. WHY WOULD IT BE SAFE FOR ALL OF THOSE KIDS, BUT IT'S NOT SAFE TO PUT IT ON THE
[00:30:01]
PROPERTY OF A FIRE DEPARTMENT. NOT JUST BEATS IN MY HEART. SO WITH RESPECT, PLEASE CONSIDER THIS VERY SERIOUSLY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. APRIL NEXTCARD. RYAN REDISH, SPEAKING IN OPPOSITION, RIGHT? THANK YOU. THANK YOU AGAIN FOR YOUR TIME THIS EVENING. TWO WEEKS AGO, I SPOKE MAINLY ON SAFETY CONCERNS IN THE UNKNOWN TONIGHT I'LL TELL YOU A LITTLE BIT MORE ABOUT SAFETY CONCERNS IN THE KNOWN. THE ALL PRO CONSULTING GROUP ATTACHMENT THAT THEY PROVIDED THE FALZONE LETTER SPECIFICALLY SAYS. COULD HAPPEN. IT WOULD YIELD BUCKLE AT THE 40 FT.ELEVATION NO LORDS, 40 FT OF THAT STICK COULD FALL IN ANY DIRECTION, CONTINGENT ON WEATHER AND WINDS AND OTHER ITEMS, BUT IT COULD HAPPEN. THEY CONTINUE TO SAY. THERE'S ONLY A 2% CHANCE OF THIS OCCURRING AND THEN THE GIVEN YEAR, SO 2% LIKELY THAT THIS YEAR IT COULD FALL IN THAT SCHOOL. AS A GENTLEMAN MENTIONED EARLIER. WELL, MAYBE IT'S NOT AREA REFUGE, BUT THERE'II REFUGES JUST ADJACENT TO IT. HOW DO YOU CONTROL A 40 FT STICK OF STEEL. I DON'T KNOW. IN WINDS THAT AIR THAT MAGNITUDE TO MAKE IT FALL.
SAFETY CONCERN. NUMBER. ONE OVER TWO LETTERS OF INTENT FROM THE CLIENTS OR FROM THE APPLICANTS SAID THAT JUSTIFICATION AGAIN AS MY WIFE POINTED OUT. MCKINNEY FIRE STATION PROPERTY AS AN ALTERNATIVE, BUT THEY WERE TURNED DOWN. THE SCHOOL REPRESENTS THE ON LEE AVAILABLE PARCEL WITH SPACE AND A WILLINGNESS TO ACCOMMODATE THE PROJECT. WHY IS NOBODY WILLING TO ACCOMMODATE THIS EXCEPT FOR POSSIBLE SCHOOL OF ELEMENTARY KIDS? JUST MAKES YOU WONDER WHAT HAPPENED IN THE OTHER AREAS THAT THIS DOESN'T WORK BECAUSE WE ALL KNOW THERE'S PLENTY OF LAND IN THE AREA THAT THEY COULD GO TO AND TRY TO NEGOTIATE DEALS WITH IN ADDITION, FOUR G HAS MANAGED TO DO THIS WITHOUT A TOWER IN THIS AREA. THEY'VE MANAGED TO GO TO BUILDINGS, WATER TOWERS AND OTHER STRUCTURES TO BE ABLE TO PUT THESE ELEMENTS UP. INCLUDING THE TOP OF EXISTING ELECTRICAL POLES, WHICH THERE PLENTY OF ON VIRGINIA PARKWAY, SO THERE'S OPPORTUNITIES FOR THEM TO DO THIS WITHOUT 85 FT TOWER, WHICH IS EIGHT STORIES TALL. RIGHT NEXT TO AN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL.
ADDITIONALLY, THEY'VE GOT ANOTHER TOWER ABOUT A MILE AWAY. THERE'S WATER TOWER WITHIN THE SAME HALF MILE RADIUS OF THE ONE THEY'RE PROPOSING. THIS IS SHOWN ON THERE. POSED OR S. R R S R P 700 MEGAHERTZ DRAWINGS. LASTLY, BRING YOUR ATTENTION TO THE HEMPHILL DOCUMENTS THAT SHOW IMAGES OF RESIDENCES WITH THE TOWER IN THE BACKGROUND. RESEARCH INDICATES THAT OVER 90% OF HOMEBUYERS AND RUNNERS ARE LESS INTERESTED IN PROPERTIES NEAR CELL TOWERS AND WOULD PAY LESS FOR PROPERTY IN CLOSE VICINITY. TWO CELL TOWERS. DOCUMENTATION OF A PRICE DROP OF UP TO 20% IS FOUND IN MULTIPLE SURVEYS AND PUBLISHED ARTICLES. THINK HOME VALUES WILL BE IMPACTED BECAUSE THIS IS VISIBLE. THEY ALWAYS SAY LOCATION AND CURB APPEAL TO THINGS THAT HELP YOU SELL A HOUSE IMMEDIATELY. WHO'S GONNA WANT CURB APPEAL WHEN THEY DRIVE UP AND THEY SEE THIS TOWERING OVER THEIR HOME IN THE BACKYARD. I APPRECIATE YOUR TIME. THANK YOU, MR REDDISH. THAT'S THE LAST CARD THAT WE HAVE, IF ANYONE ELSE WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM, PLEASE COME TO THE PODIUM. ANYONE ELSE? MOVIE CLOSED HEARING.
SECOND OF EMOTION BY MR MANZO BECAUSE THE PUBLIC HEARING IN A SECOND BY MR HECKLERS THERE ANY DISCUSSION HE'S CAST YOUR VOTES. THE MOTION EYES APPROVED SEVEN IN FAVORITE ZERO AGAINST.
WHAT WE'LL DO NOW IS, UM, HAVE QUESTIONS AND SOME DIALOGUE WITH THE CITY STAFF THAT'S WORKED ON THE SIGN OF AND ALSO THE APPLICANT. WILL ANSWER QUESTIONS THAT WERE ASKED DURING THE PUBLIC HEARING IF YOU HAD A SPECIFIC QUESTION OR HAVE A NEW QUESTION AFTER THE MEETING. YOU CAN TALK TO A STAFF MEMBER OR THE APPLICANT WILL REFRAIN FROM. DIALOG WITH THE AUDIENCE. DURING THIS TIME, WE'LL TRY TO GET TO A PRECISE POINT AND MAYBE TAKE SOME ACTION. SO IF YOU HAVE A QUESTION TONIGHT, IT'S NOT ADDRESS. PLEASE TALK TO STAFF AFTER THE MEETING. OKAY MEMBERS OF THEIR QUESTIONS OF STAFF OR THE APPLICANT. OH, BOTH START WITH THE AFRICAN. IF YOU WANT, I'LL PICK IT PLURAL. YES, REPLICANTS. SOME QUESTIONS
[00:35:01]
ABOUT LOCATION JUST WITHIN THE AREA HERE. HOW IS THIS SITE SELECTED ON WHERE OTHER AREAS LOOKED AT? AS FAR AS WATER TOWERS? THINGS LIKE THAT EXISTING POLLS? YES, AS MR MASON SAID IT AMAZING, GRIFFIN SAID IT AT THE BEGINNING. THIS IS PRIMARILY KIND OF A NEIGHBORHOOD LEVEL SIGHT FOR SERVICE PROVIDED FROM NORTH OF WEST RIDGE AND ROUGHLY SOUTH OF VIRGINIA PARKWAY, A LITTLE BIT NORTH. WHEN SYSTEMS STARTED OUT. THERE WERE VERY FEW COLLARS AND NOT MUCH CAPACITY DEMAND. YOU COULD SERVE A LARGE PORTION OF THE CITY FROM A TALL TOWER IN AN INDUSTRIAL OR COMMERCIAL AREA. SINCE THEN, WITH THE GROWTH OF CUSTOMERS THE GROWTH OF DEMAND THE DATA PORTION OF IT IN ADDITION TO VOICE I'VE HAD TOE REPEATEDLY IN FILL IN BETWEEN EXISTING SITES AS A SYSTEM MATURES. SO THAT RESULT IN THE SMALLER AND SMALLER CELL OF COVERAGE. AND IN THIS PARTICULAR CASE, VERIZON'S EXISTING SITES ARE ABOUT A MILE TO THE EAST NORTHEAST NEAR CUSTER IN VIRGINIA. WE ARE ACCUSTOMED VIRGINIA PARKWAY. THERE'S A WATER TANK THERE ON A POLE NEXT TO THE TANK. SO JUST ABOUT A MILE AWAY FROM THE SITE, AND THEN THE OTHER SITE THAT RISING IS WORKING OFF OF IS. DOWN BY A COY AND ELDORADO PARK WHERE THERE'S AH, LARGE TOWER WITH A LOT OF MICROWAVE STUFF ON IT, AND THEY'RE ON THAT LOCATION, SO THAT PROVIDES SERVICE THAT Z CURRENTLY IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD.WITH THE GROWTH OF CAPACITY. MAN THEY'RE TRYING TO PLAN AHEAD AS THAT INCREASES AND SO THEY NEED TO SERVE THE AREA IN BETWEEN THOSE TOWERS, SO THIS WILL CREATE A NEW CELL. UM ROUGHLY HALF COVERING ABOUT HALFWAY TO THE TOWER A MILE AWAY, AND MAYBE A LITTLE LESS TO THE TOWER TO THE SOUTHWEST, BECAUSE IT'S A TALLER TOWERS, SO THEIR SIGNAL IS REACHING FARTHER. SO IT'S ESSENTIALLY A NEIGHBORHOOD LEVEL SIGHT. S O. THE WATER TANK TO THE SOUTH IS SOUTH OF WEST RIDGE. THAT'S ACTUALLY JUST OUTSIDE THE AREA OF SERVICE. THE SAME WITH THE WATER TANK MENTIONED BY ONE OF THE. SPEAKERS TO THE NORTH. THAT'S ABOUT AT THE NORTH END, SO NONE OF THESE SITES ARE IN THE CORE OF THE AREA BEING SERVED. THIS IS JUST A NEIGHBORHOOD LEVEL. TO SERVE TO SERVE THE SCHOOL AND KIND OF THE SURROUNDING RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD RATE IN THIS AREA. UM. SO THAT'S THAT'S HOW KIND OF HOW WE GOT TO IT. THE FIRE STATION IS KIND OF A LITTLE BIT EAST OF THE CENTER OF IT, BUT WE DID TALK TO THEM TO THE CITY TO SEE ABOUT THAT AVAILABILITY, AND I JUST WANTED TO CLARIFY ONE THING. THE ISSUE WAS NOT THAT IT WAS NOT SAFE TO PUT IT AT THE FIGHT FIRE DEPARTMENT. IT WAS JUST THAT THERE WAS A POLICY OF NOT LOCATING CELL TOWERS ON PUBLIC SAFETY PROPERTIES MEAN FIRE STATIONS AND THINGS OF THAT NATURE. THAT'S I GUESS AN INTERNAL POLICY THAT YOU GUYS HAD. BUT THERE WAS NOT. IT WAS NOT THAT THE FIRE DEPARTMENT OBJECTED TO IT FROM A SAFETY STANDPOINT, JUST THEY DIDN'T WANT TO PUT IT ON A PUBLIC SAFETY PROPERTY, SO I JUST WANTED TO CLARIFY THAT.
SO THEN WE SAID, KIND OF, YOU KNOW WHAT ABOUT THE SCHOOL? IS THAT SUBJECT THE SAME KIND OF CONCERN. I THINK WAS JENNIFER ARNOLD. WE'RE TALKING TO YOU. AND SHE SAID THE SCHOOL IS ITS OWN JURISDICTION. YOU NEED TO TALK WITH HIM, AND THEY'LL MAKE THEIR OWN DECISION ON THAT.
BELIEVE PROSPEROUS CITY HAS ENTERTAINED SELF POWER ON THEIR PROPERTIES BEFORE ELSEWHERE, BUT NOT WITHIN THIS WITHIN THE CITY OF MCKINNEY. OTHER QUESTIONS OF THE APPLICANT. SO.
I GUESS. FIVE CHEESE. THE NEXT THING COMING GIVE US A SHORT LESSON ON THE RANGE OF FIVE G AND WHAT FIVE G WILL LOOK LIKE THROUGH A NEIGHBORHOOD. I'M NOT R F EXPERT BUT FIVE G HAS A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT MORE AMOUNT OF CAPACITY THAN THE EXISTING FOR JI, SO IN TERMS OF SPEED AND VOLUME OF DATA IT'S MUCH HIGHER. IF YOU'RE LOOKING AT, FOR INSTANCE, THE WEATHER RADAR TO KIND OF SEE WHERE TORNADO PILOT GUN IS, AND MAYBE HAS HITCHES, AND IT'S NOT STREAMING. YOU KNOW, THE. CURVE OF THE RADAR. THIS WOULD BE INSTANTANEOUS AND YOU'LL BE ABLE TO GET THAT CYCLE ON YOUR PHONE. I'M KIND OF WAITING FOR IT TO LOAD OR HAVE HESITANCY SO THAT. SPEED IS REALLY BIG. MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT FIVE G, THOUGH, OPERATES. IN A SHORTER DISTANCE, SO IT RESULT IN A NEED FOR MORE TOWERS, SO YOU SEE A TREND FOR MORE SHORTER SITES KIND OF FILLING IN WITH THAT, AND THIS IS A PART OF THAT AS WELL. UM IN TERMS OF UM.
YES, I GUESS. SPEED AND SPEED AND, UM. WILLIAM IS KIND OF THE MAIN BENEFITS. THE QUESTIONS OF THE AFRICAN STOLEN. AND I THINK IT IS DEAF, SAID NO TO THIS EARLIER, BUT CAN YOU GIVE US EXAMPLES WHERE THIS IS THE SCENARIO IN OTHER AREAS TO HAVE THIS NEXT TO SCHOOL? CLOSE TO
[00:40:04]
SCHOOL. UM OTHER OTHER SCHOOLS DO HAVE THEM ON SIGHT. I'M NOT FAMILIAR WITH ANY SITE PLANS OF WHAT THEY ARE LOCATED. I DO. I HAVE SEEN THEM NEXT TO COMMERCIAL BUILDINGS AND STORES WHERE THEY ACTUALLY SOME OF THEM HAVE A ROOM INSIDE THE BUILDING WHERE THE EQUIPMENT IS INSTEAD OF OUTSIDE, AND SO THEY PUT THE TOWER NEXT TO THE BUILDING AND THEN RUN THE CABLING THROUGH THE WALL INTO AN INTERIOR ROOM. WOULDN'T WORK IN THIS CASE BECAUSE IT'S A GYMNASIUM. BUT THERE ARE A LOT OF SAID THERE ARE OTHER CITIES ANOTHER SCHOOLS THAT HAVE THE SCENARIO RIGHT HERE. YES, THERE ARE THE LOCATIONS AND THERE ALSO LOCATIONS WHERE THERE AREN'T SETBACKS TO PROPERTY LINES AS EXTREMELY THERE SO YOU CAN WIND UP WITH POWERS MUCH CLOSER TO PROPERTY LINES OR STREET RIGHT AWAYS OR THINGS LIKE THAT. THAT'S ONE OF THE THINGS WE DID HERE. WE ACTUALLY CAME IN WITH A CONCEPT FOR A. COLLAR POLE, BUT WE SAW HOW IMPORTANT IT WAS HISTORICALLY AND WITH STAFF AND WITH A POLICY TO HAVE AT LEAST A TWO TIMES HEIGHT SETBACK FROM RESIDENTIAL AND SO WE LOWER THE POLE FROM 8 80 FT, I BELIEVE ARE. CURRENT FCC, AN FAA REGULATION REGISTRATIONS ARE AT 110 FT, BUT WE DID. MAKE SURE THE LOWER IT TO THE POINT. WHERE WOULD HAVE AT LEAST THAT TWO TIMES HEIGHT FROM THE RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY LINE. AS WELL AS A SWELL AZAZ SOMEBODY THE ENGINEER LETTER TO KIND OF ADDRESS THAT SAFETY CONCERNS AS WELL. SO I GUESS MAYBE THIS IS FOR FIRST STEP, SO THERE ARE OTHER PLACES IN. THERE ARE OTHER CITIES AND COLIN KELLY. WE JUST DON'T HAVE ANY AND MAKE ANY WORD. THIS IS WHERE THIS TOWER IS. LOCATED THIS CLOSE TO SCHOOL. IT'S CORRECT. THIS WOULD BE THE FIRST SCHOOL LOCATION THAT HAD THE TOWER. AND IN MCKINNEY, JUSTIN MCKINNEY, BUT THERE ARE OTHER PLACES IN IN OUR AREA. WE WOULD HAVE TO DO FURTHER RESEARCH TO SEE THE SCHOOLS IN DIFFERENT CITIES AND WHETHER OR NOT THEY HAD THOSE CELL PHONE TOWERS. SO WHEN STAFF ME THAT THIS IS MY QUESTION OR STAFF, I DON'T HAVE NO I CAN HOLD OFF. QUESTIONS FOR STAFF. I'D LIKE TO FOLLOW UP ON THAT QUESTION. I'VE GOT ONE MORE FOR THAT IF YOU DON'T MIND, OKAY? SO WE SHOWED HERE AND IF YOU CAN ROOM JUST HIGHLIGHT AGAIN. WE SHOWED HERE RIGHT ADJACENT TO THE GYMNASIUM FOR VARIOUS REASONS, AND I'LL LET YOU HIGHLIGHT THAT JUST SECOND. DID YOU LOOK AT OTHER AREAS WITHIN THE SITE? THERE WEREN'T ADJACENT TO THE BUILDING. THAT'S STILL PROVIDED THE PROPER SPACE FROM THE PROPERTY LINE. WERE THOSE CONSIDERED. WE RELIED ON THE SCHOOL ON THEIR STAFF TO KIND OF DIRECT US WHERE THEY WANT.I'M THE EAST SIDE OF THE BUILDING IS DESIGNATED PLAY AREA. THERE'S LIKE TRASH DUMPSTER IN THE NORTHEAST CORNER AND THEN, LIKE A PUT A FENCE PLAY AREA. AND THEN THE EAST AND THE SELF AREAS WERE CONSIDERED KIND OF FRONT FRONT YARD AREAS. FROM A ZONING STANDPOINT, IT'S MORE OF A DISFAVORED LOCATION. SO SCHOOL, THE SCHOOL OPERATIONS PEOPLE FELT THIS WAS THE BEST LOCATION FOR THEIR OPERATIONAL STANDPOINT, SO WE KIND OF FOLLOWED THEIR LEAD AS TO WHERE THEY FELT IT WOULD BE BEST. SITUATED. OKAY, SO THAT WAS A RECOMMENDATION FROM THE SCHOOL SUPPORTING THAT LOCATION. YES, T NOT IMPACT THE FUNCTIONALITY OF THE SCHOOL GROUNDS AND WHATNOT. TODAY OPERATION. IT'S A SCHOOL RECOMMENDATION, OKAY? I ALSO HAVE A COUPLE OTHER ITEMS TO DRESS, BUT I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WANT THAT NOW OR JUST NEED TO RESPOND TO YOUR QUESTIONS, BUT THEY'RE A COUPLE THINGS MENTIONED THAT I WOULD LIKE TO ADDRESS TOO. BUT YOU'RE HERE NOW WOULD BE A GOOD TIME. OKAY AND I'LL MAKE IT. I'LL MAKE IT QUICK. I'M ABOUT THE SCREENING, WHILE UM. WE WENT WITH EIGHT FT INSTEAD OF SIX FT.
ONE OF THE COMMENTERS MENTIONED THAT DOESN'T SCREAM THE TOWER AND I JUST WANT TO EMPHASIZE THE PURPOSE OF THE SCREENING WHILE IN THE PLANTINGS HEIR TO SCREEN THE GROUND EQUIPMENT, SO THAT KIND OF NOT A QUITTER. BASE OF THE TOWER AREA. IT'S NOT MEANT TO HIDE THE TOWER ITSELF. THE TOWER ITSELF. WE WAY TRIED TO GO WITH THE LEAST INTRUSIVE DESIGN OF A STEALTH MULTIPLE AND MADE SURE ALL THE ANTENNAS WERE INTERNALLY CONCEALED. SO THAT'S KIND OF A STEALTH ELEMENT WITH RESPECT TO THE TOWER. BUT THE BUT THE MASONRY WALL IS JUST FOR THE GROUND EQUIPMENT AND WE ARE MAKING SURE TO MATCH THE EXISTING BRICK AND STONE WORK ON THE BUILDING IDENTICALLY, SIMILAR TO WHAT'S BEEN DONE AT THE DUMPSTERS AS WELL WITH THE SAME COLOR, SAME BRICKS AND TEXTURE. ONE OF THE OTHER ITEMS. I WANTED TO BRIEFLY ADDRESS TO WAS THE FALZONE LETTER. IT WAS MENTIONED ABOUT A 2% CHANCE OF FALLING IN ANY YEAR AND I JUST WANTED TO MENTION US. THE PARAGRAPH NUMBER FOUR ON THAT LETTER. IT SAYS THE STRUCTURE WILL BE DESIGNED USING EXTREME WIND AND ICE CONDITIONS. THE WIND SPEEDS SPECIFIED BY T A 2 TO 2 DASH H STANDARD ARE 50 YEARS WIND SPEEDS. THAT IS, THEY ONLY HAVE
[00:45:05]
A 2% STATISTICAL CHANCE OF OCCURRING IN ANY GIVEN YEAR. SO THEY'RE TALKING ABOUT WITH THE 2% IS THAT THERE'S ONLY A 2% CHANCE THAT THE DESIGNED WIND SPEEDS WILL OCCUR. WITH ANY HERE NOT A 2% CHANCE OF TOWER FALLING IN THE TOWER HAS BEEN DESIGNED TO DEAL WITH THOSE WIND SPEEDS THAT HAVE A 2% CHANCE OF OCCURRING. IT GOES ON TO INDICATE IN THAT SCENE.PARAGRAPH THAT IN THOSE WIND SPEEDS, THE TOWER WILL ONLY BE STRESSED TO 58% WHICH DESIGN CAPACITY. SO WHAT THEY'RE SAYING IS IN THAT RARE TIME THAT 2% CHANCE THAT YOU GET THOSE EXTREME WIND SPEEDS. THE TOWER IS DESIGNED FOR THOSE. IT IS ONLY STRESSED SO, LIKE THE 50% BRAIN. JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE TO CLARIFY THAT BECAUSE IT WAS MADE TO SOUND LIKE THE TOWER WOULD HAVE A 2% CHANCE OF FALLING IN ANY GIVEN YEAR. THAT THAT'S WHAT THE ONLY THINGS THEY WANTED TO CLARIFY RESPOND. IT WAS THE TOWER ONLY DESIGNED TO THE MINIMUMS OF 106, MILES PER HOURS, AIR SAFETY FACTOR AND AN ADDITIONAL DESIGN. ON TOP OF THAT THEY DO AS FUDGE IN ADDITIONAL SAFETY FACTOR, BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT THEY. WAY DON'T ENGINEERS DON'T LIKE MINIMUM, SO YOU FIGURE IT WAS MORE THAN THAT. JUST THE EQUIPMENT THAT'S ON THE GROUND. IS IT MAKE NOISE? IT DOESN'T HAVE HAS SOME. IT'S THEIR OUTDOOR CAMERA, SO IT'S NOT LIKE YOUR TYPICAL.
HOLDING THAT HAS LIKE ENCLOSED BUILDING WITH. AIR CONDITIONING, WHICH IS SIMILAR TO A HOME AIR CONDITIONER, BUT THESE WILL BE OUTDOOR CABINETS. DON'T HAVE THAT EXTRA SYSTEM SO THEY'LL BE SILENT. ALL RIGHT. ANYONE ELSE? GOOD. THANK YOU. CAITLYN IT I THINK, CHRIS, YOU HAD A QUESTION. AND YOU HAVE LIKE THE LAST ITEM ON THE TELECOMMUNICATIONS ACT OF 1996, WHERE. GIVES US GUIDANCE THE CITY ON HOW TO WHAT DECISIONS CAN BE MADE. ON THE SUPPOSED ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS. CERTAINLY SO BASED ON THE TELECOMMUNICATIONS ACT, THE CITY OR THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT IS NOT ABLE TO MAKE ANY SORT OF DECISIONS BASED ON FACTORS OF ENVIRONMENTAL EFFECTS OR HEALTH EFFECTS OR SAFETY CONCERNS FOR THOSE RADIO FREQUENCY EMISSIONS. SO WE CAN BASE OUR RECOMMENDATION ON WHAT THEY PROVIDED US. THE HEIGHT, THE SCREAMING THE LOCATION, BUT IN TERMS OF THE SAFETY CONCERNS FOR THOSE RADIO EFFICIENCY EMISSIONS WE'RE NOT ABLE TO MAKE A RECOMMENDATION ON THANK YOU. CITY MCKINNEY EMPLOYEES OF FIVE G ADMINISTRATOR OR PLANNER, IS THAT CORRECT? OR DO YOU KNOW? SO WE DO HAVE A PERSON WITH OUR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION THAT HAS SOME SPECIALTY IN THAT. I DON'T KNOW THAT HIS EXACT TITLE IS FIVE G SPECIALISTS, BUT HE DOES HAVE EXPERIENCE OR EXPERTISE. AND HELPING OUR E T. C WITH SOME OF THEIR MISSION MISSION, WHICH IS TO ADVANCE TECHNOLOGY FOR THE CITY. CONCERN OUTSIDE OF THIS CASE IS JUST FIVE G DOESN'T HAVE NEAR THE REACH OF A FOUR G AND I DON'T THINK IT'S GOING TO GET ANY EASIER WITH THE NUMBER OF CELL TOWERS THAT'LL BE REQUESTED OVER THE COMING YEARS. AS FAR AS THE CITY MAYBE BEING AND POSSIBLY IN FRONT. OF WHATEVER. FIVE G REQUESTED THAT COMING TO THE CITY AND THAT THE LOBBYIST 4, 18, T AND VERIZON WILL BE HIGHLY ACTIVE AND AUSTIN GETTING. THINGS DONE TO THE CITY, WHERE THE CITY'S ALLOWED TO HAVE A LOBBYIST DOWN THERE, NOT THIRD CONCERNS WILL BE ANOTHER QUESTION. ABSOLUTELY IN THE CITY DOES HAVE AN ENHANCED WIRELESS TECHNOLOGY STRATEGIC PLAN THAT WENT THROUGH THE COUNCIL A RUDE THE LAST YEAR TO YEAR AND A HALF. WITH SOME STRATEGIES TO HELP ADVANCE OR FURTHER DEFINE HOW THE CITY WANTS TO LOOK AT THAT ENHANCED TECHNOLOGY. FIVE G VERSUS FOUR G HOW WE MIGHT POTENTIALLY READY PUBLIC SITES MEANING LIKE RIGHT OF WAYS AND PERHAPS A TC OR PUBLICLY OWNED PROPERTIES, SO EVEN ACCEPT THE PUBLIC SAFETY FACILITY. IT'S OBVIOUSLY. S O. THAT IS SOMETHING THAT THE CITY HAS ON THE BOOKS. I SUPPOSE WHEN WE DO HAVE SOME STAFF DEDICATED SPECIFICALLY FOR THOSE VERY THINGS. MCCONE. HAS. NO. YOU WERE JUST TALKING ABOUT FOUR G VERSE FIVE G. AND THE CAPACITY IS SMALLER. FOR THE FIVE G WILL THERE BE MORE TOWER APPLICATIONS? HAVE YOU SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THAT YET? AND WITH THAT. NO, THIS IS PROSPEROUS CITY SCHOOL, WILL MCKINNEY USE THEIR SCHOOLS AS.
PLACES TO USE TOWER OR WILL THEY USE HAVE THE SAME ROLE AS THE FIRE DEPARTMENT'S EXCEPT FOR HOURS AT A QUESTION FOR THE SCHOOL DISTRICT. I KNOW THAT'S 100 QUESTIONS, BUT GOOD LUCK
[00:50:06]
ALL IN ONE. YES, SO FIRST, I'LL HAVE THE EASY ONE, WHICH IS A LOCATION ON SCHOOL SITES WOULD BE UNDER THE PURVIEW OF THE SCHOOL DISTRICT, SO THAT WOULD NOT BE A DECISION THAT THE CITY WOULD MAKE. BUT IN TERMS OF INCREASE IN THE NUMBER OF REQUESTS THAT ARE COMING FORWARD, I THINK THE SIMPLE ANSWER IS PROBABLY YES. AZIZ TECHNOLOGY AND WIRELESS TECHNOLOGY CONTINUES TO BE. FOUNDATIONAL AND HOW WE OPERATE. NOWADAYS I DO EXPECT THAT WE WOULD SEE MORE REQUESTS. I DO ALSO WANT TO RE EMPHASIZE THAT ENHANCED WIRELESS TECHNOLOGY STRATEGIC PLAN THAT THE CITY HAS. THE GOAL, ESPECIALLY KNOWING THAT I'M GOING TO START SPEAKING A LITTLE BIT OUT OF TURN ON MY OWN ACCORD, FIVE G AND SMALL CELL WHICH ARE SHORTER TOWERS WITH SHORTER RANGE. DID YOU HAVE A LOT MORE OF THEM? ON BY THE OPPORTUNITY TO PUT THOSE IN LIKE THE PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY, SIMILAR TO HOW WE WOULD LIKE A FRANCHISE UTILITIES AND THE PUBLIC RIGHT OF WAY, SO THAT THOSE CAN ACTUALLY OCCUR WITHOUT THE NEED TO BE ON A PUBLIC SORRY, PRIVATE PROPERTY. AND SO I THINK I THINK I MAY HAVE ANSWERED ALL YOUR QUESTIONS. SCHOOL DISTRICT YES. INCREASED NUMBER OF REQUESTS FOR LARGER TOWERS, EVEN WITH THE SMALL CELL AND FIVE G THESE LARGER SERVICE TOWERS, IF YOU WILL ARE STILL NECESSARY IN THEIR SYSTEM BECAUSE THEY ARE WHAT CONNECT THE. SMALL CELL. I'M LOOKING AT THEIR EXPERT OVER HERE. THAT'S WHAT HELPS TO CONNECT THOSE SMALL CELLS TOGETHER. SO A ZOO THOSE BECOME MORE PREVALENT. I THINK THAT WE WILL START TO SEE MORE OF THESE REQUESTS, NOT NECESSARILY ALL ON A SCHOOL SITE. BUT WITHIN THE CITY FOR SURE. I WILL SEE HIM COME THROUGH THIS MEETING, OR WILL YOU LIKE YOU SAID? YEAH. IF THEY'RE IF THEY'RE ON A FIT ON A PRIVATE PROPERTY, OKAY? AND THEN WE DO HAVE DARNING AUTHORITIES ARE IN CONTROL.OVER REVIEWING EXACTLY THE THINGS THAT WE'VE REVIEWED IN THIS CASE. HI DISTANCE, ALL OF THAT STUFF. THANK YOU. NO ONE ELSE. NO ONE ELSE. SO SOME OF THE RESIDENTS WORK THE THEY'RE CONCERNED THAT THIS COULD DEVALUE THEIR PROPERTY WITH HAVING THIS LARGE POWER. I'M SO CLOSE TO THEIR NEIGHBORHOODS IN THE CITY. SPEAK TO YOU WAS THAT TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION FOR THE RECOMMENDATION? S O FOR THE ZONING REQUEST FOR THE TELECOMMUNICATIONS TOWER. WE DO NOT EVALUATE WHETHER OR NOT THIS WOULD DEVALUE OR DECREASE THE VALUE OF THE ADJACENT PROPERTIES. UM. SO SHORT ANSWER. NO, THAT WAS NOT TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION. THE QUESTIONS. WELL, ANYTHING ELSE. DO YOU HAVE FOR US? I DON'T KNOW. OKAY, MEMBERS, UM, TALKS TALK AMONGST OURSELVES. OCEANS. THINK UTILITIES ARE ALWAYS DIFFICULT. IT SEEMS LIKE WHETHER IT'S A SUBSTATION OR. THE TYPE OF LINES PEOPLE FIND IT UNATTRACTIVE, AND THAT'S PROBABLY WHY WE BURY SO MANY THINGS ANYMORE. BUT WE ARE DEPENDENT ON SALE ASSED FAR AS THE ASPECT OF THE RISK. WERE DISCUSSED BETWEEN FALL OR STUDENTS HAVE TO TAKE THAT THE PROSPEROUS D AND THE PROSPERITY IS DE BOARD. HAS DONE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF DUE DILIGENCE IN ORDER TO PUT THESE AROUND THEIR SCHOOLS AND WHAT THAT BRINGS TOOL. AND FEEL THEY PROBABLY HAVE THE BEST FOR THEIR STUDENTS IN MIND THE ENTIRE TIME THAT THEY DO THAT.
I THINK THEY'VE MADE THE TOWERS LEAST IMPACTFUL AS THEY CAN FOR THE HOMEOWNERS FOR WHAT THE NEED IS OVERALL, SO I'LL SUPPORT IT. NO ONE ELSE. OCEANS. LIKE A MOTION TO APPROVE THE PROPOSED REZONING REQUEST WITH THE. SPECIAL ORDNANCE VISION LISTED IN THE STAFF REPORT.
