Recommendation
The City Clerk recommends that the City Council waive full reading and adopt by title Ordinance No. 19-1390.
Body
Background:
At the January 8, 2019 City Council meeting, staff presented the draft ordinance for Council consideration and recommended the following revisions to clarify: (1) that facilities are permitted in the right of way adjacent to all zoning districts; (2) the application requirement for proof of owner authorization to use the pole or structure; (3) the application requirement that proprietary information can be redacted from private leases that are submitted with the application to show authorization to attach to a certain pole or structure; and (4) the process for determining an application is complete.
Following the public hearing, the Council introduced the ordinance by a unanimous 4-0 vote (Fangary absent), as amended to include the four staff-recommended revisions noted above, and further amended to add an additional condition of approval as #28 to require permittees to remove nonoperational equipment from the pole or structure when installing new equipment under the permit.
