The City of Newport Beach must always be mindful of preserving the attractive aesthetic our City boasts. As part of our review, we wanted to let you know that the City of Newport Beach will not permit an above-grade meter pedestal, meter socket, or AC panel to be installed as part of the Small Cell deployment AT&T, or any other company, is proposing. The City will require a minimization of impacts for aesthetic and public right-of-way access reasons as follows: 1. Section 20.49.050 (General Development and Design Standards), Subsection F(6)(b) (Support Equipment, Installations in a Public Right-of-Way) requires support equipment to be placed or mounted in the least visually obtrusive location practicable. This section states that support equipment in the right-of-way shall be placed underground if required by other provisions of the Municipal Code in flush - to-grade underground vault enclosures, including flush-to-grade vents, or vents that extend no more than twenty-four inches above the finished grade and are screened from public view. 2. Section 13.20.030 (City Policies Regarding Use of the PROW), Subsection B (Limits on Above-Ground Facilities) limits the number and controls the location of above ground facilities used in conjunction with underground facilities consistent with the technical requirements for providing high quality utility service. Companies shall place all newly installed facilities underground or flush mounted vaults, whenever feasible. Companies shall coordinate with all affected property owners F:\Users\PLN\Shared\Staff_Dir\Nova\Project Files\Telecom\Meter Pedestal Denial Letters\Batch 3\Meter Pedestal Denial Letter-NO SLC5655.docx Page 2 to locate all newly installed AGF to minimize inconvenience and disruption to residents. Please note, issuance of this letter does not guarantee automatic approval of the antennas as proposed. Thank you for your consideration. Please contact me at 949-644-3249 or mnova@newportbeachca.gov with any questions.
