It has also been suggested that the enclosure structures be covered to ensure they are fully secure from access by the general public. The block wall enclosures for the support equipment will be retaining wall structures, built into a sloping landscaped area adjacent to the parking stalls. Staff recommends that the structures are constructed of split face block or other decorative material, and to address the issue of security, staff recommends that the structures be covered in addition to being fully enclosed and accessed through a self- closing and locked gate. The final design and configuration of the structures shall be subject to the review and approval by the Public Works Director. These changes have been amended in the Conditions of Approval to address these matters. A copy of the revised Findings and Conditions of Approval are attached.

BACKGROUND At the meeting of October 12, 2004, the City Council reviewed the applications of Cingular Wireless and Sprint PCS. The applicants propose to develop and install two wireless telecommunications facilities at the subject property, which is a city -owned municipal parking lot. The facility antennas are proposed to be located on a total of four streetlight poles in the public right -of -way along Superior Avenue, and the base support equipment would be located within the parking lot. After discussion by City Council and testimony from the public, a motion was made to continue the item to the meeting of November 9, 2004. The item was continued to allow the applicants adequate time to research whether or not the facilities could achieve the desired coverage with the antennas mounted on 32 -foot high streetlights poles. Additionally, the applicants needed to provide revised plans that accurately depict the dimension of the lighting standards above grade and to coordinate with Public Works to 0 • 000 West Coast Highway November 9, 2004 Page 2 ensure adequate distribution of light coverage along Superior Avenue. The applicants were also directed by City Council to explore the possibility of installing the antennas at Hoag Hospital. A copy of the minutes of the prior meetings and previous staff reports are attached for reference. DISCUSSION At the direction of City Council, the applicants and their RF engineers investigated whether or not the wireless facilities could achieve coverage objectives with the antennas mounted at a maximum height of 32 feet. Each applicant has concluded the facilities will work at that height limit and have prepared revised plans which depict the streetlight poles at 32 feet, the top of the antennas mounted at 31 feet, and the light standards mounted at 34 feet 9 inches measured from the top of existing sidewalk. This is consistent with the height of the existing streetlight poles located along this portion of Superior Avenue, and the light standards are being mounted at the height specified on the Lighting Standard STD -201 -L used by the Public Works Department. To ensure continuity of design, the applicants will be using the same streetlight pole manufacturing company. The Public Works Department has reviewed the revised plans and has determined the distribution of light coverage along Superior Avenue will be sufficient. A copy of the new plans is attached for review. New photographic simulations are being prepared by the applicants and will be distributed in the supplemental agenda packet on November 5th. During testimony from the public, concerns regarding several topics were raised which are discussed below. Alternative Locations and Designs Both applicants desire to improve their existing network capacities in this area of the City, and the intersection of Superior Avenue and West Coast Highway was identified at or near the center of their search ring. Prior to submitting their application to the City in October, 2003, Cingular investigated alternative locations as a potential site for a wireless facility within close proximity to this intersection. The commercial development across the street would not be conducive for a roof - mounted facility because of the low single -story construction and the lower elevation of the site, and installation of a freestanding facility on the site was rejected because it would displace required parking spaces. i he applicant contacted I n loa g Hospital in early 2003, and was it L lgl I CU they l were not interested in entering into an agreement Cingular Wireless for the installation of a telecom facility on their site. Representatives of Cingular Wireless left messages with the facilities manager of Hoag Hospital again on October 28, 2004. As of this writing, the calls have not been returned. • The Telecom Ordinance and Council policy identify the desired design or location of wireless telecom facilities. The use of existing poles or light standards is encouraged and is listed second in priority of eight categories, while new false trees and monopoles (similar to the originally proposed flagpoles) are discouraged. Aesthetically, the use of streetlight E 000 West Coast Highway November 9, 2004 Page 3 poles for antenna installations meets the intent of the ordinance and minimizes the impact on views because the streetlight poles are existing. Exposure to Radio Frequency (RF) Emissions The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has established specific rules and guidelines designed to protect public health by limiting the maximum amount of RF emissions that a wireless facility may produce. The rules are based on standards developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers, Inc. and adopted by the American National Standards Institute, as well as guidelines recommended by the National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements. Further, the rules were coordinated with and are supported by federal agencies with health and safety responsibilities, including the Environmental Protection Agency, the Food and Drug Administration, the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, and the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. The City's Telecom Ordinance requires that all wireless telecom facilities within the City comply with the rules, regulations, and standards of the FCC. As reported at the October 12th Council meeting, Mr. Jonathan Kramer (the technical advisor retained by the City) completed an evaluation of the physical elements of the proposed projects as well as compliance with RF emissions and determined the projects fully comply with the FCC rules. Enacted by the Federal government, the Telecommunications Act of 1996 specifically states "No State or local government or instrumentality thereof may regulate the placement, construction, and modification of personal wireless service facilities on the basis of the environmental effects of radio frequency emissions to the extent that such facilities comply with the Commission's regulations concerning such emissions" (Section 332 (c)(7)(B)(iv) of the Telecommunications Act of 1996). Light Distribution The Public Works Department has reviewed the revised plans and confirmed that the design as now proposed meets the City's lighting standards. The light standards will be mounted at the same height above grade as the specified on Lighting Standard STD -201- L and therefore the correct distribution of lighting will achieved. The light poles are required to be constructed in the same manner as the existing poles, and will be breakaway poles in the event of a vehicular accident. Coastal Commission Compliance Staff reviewed the project proposals in relation to the regulations adopted by the California Coastal Commission, which was enacted by the State Legislature in 1976. While the proposed projects are located in the coastal zone, staff determined the projects to be exempt from requiring a Coastal Development Permit for the following reasons: 0 • *00 West Coast Highway November 9, 2004 Page 4 • The streetlight poles are existing structures that will be modified and replaced with similar structures. • The replacement or repair of the existing structures will not result in an increase of 10 percent or more to the overall height of the structures. • The property on which the wireless telecom facilities are proposed to be located is more that 300 feet from any beach or sea, and is not located between the sea and the first public road paralleling the ocean, as West Coast Highway lies between the site the and the ocean. • The property on which the wireless telecom facilities are proposed to be located are not designated as a significant scenic resource area by the Commission. • Public access and public parking will not be affected by installation of the wireless telecom facilities on the subject property. Methane Gas Remediation Facilities Some members of the public expressed concern about the proposed facilities' proximity to methane gas facilities. The existing methane gas fields and remediation facilities are located to the east of the subject property on the Hoag Hospital parcel where the Administration and Cancer Center buildings are situated. There are no known methane gas fields in the area of the subject property. Thus, the siting of wireless telecom facilities on the subject property would not have an impact public safety as it relates to methane gas. Co- Location of Facilities The Telecom Ordinance requires that new telecom facilities located within 1,000 feet of one another shall co- locate on the same site so as to limit the adverse visual effects of a proliferation of telecom sites in the city. The ordinance also limits the number of facilities at a single site to no more than three. Council has the option of imposing a condition of approval requiring the future co- location of a third and final telecom facility on this site, or limiting the number of wireless telecom facilities to two. TELECOMMUNICATIONS LICENSE AGREEMENT A copy of the Telecommunications License Agreement (TLA), which the City Manager's Office has negotiated with each the applicants, is attached to this report. The TLA authorizes Cingular Wireless and Sprint to use this location under certain conditions, and addresses such matters as the monthly rent for the site ($2,200 per carrier), rent increases, the term (up to four 5 -year terms), bonding and insurance, co- location requirements, restrictions on transfers, and other obligations. ENCROACHMENT PERMITS Encroachment permits issued by the Public Works Department shall be required to allow installation and construction of the facilities on public and city -owned property. • 000 West Coast Highway November 9, 2004 Page 5 The encroachment permits will be issued only if the City Council approves the telecom permits and the license agreements are executed by both parties. ALTERNATIVES 1. The City Council has the option to alter the proposed design, conditions of approval or lease agreement in order to address the specific concerns the Council or public may have. 2. The City Council may amend Condition No. 19, which states a third carrier may co- locate on the subject property, and limit the number of facilities at this site of two. Council also has the option to limit the number of streetlight poles on which antennas may be mounted. 3. The City Council can deny the subject permits, in which case both the license agreements and telecom permits shall not be executed. Prepared by: Submitted by: Jet Patricia L.

TELECOMMUNICATIONS FACILITY PERMIT NO. 2003 -003 (PA2003 -255); TELECOMMUNICATIONS FACILITY PERMIT NO. 2004 -002 (PA2004 -057) - 4600 WEST COAST HIGHWAY (APPLICANTS - CINGULAR WIRELESS AND SPRINT PCS). Assistant Planner Brown stated that the City Council reviewed Cingular Wireless's application at the City Council meeting of May 11, 2004. Since that meeting, Cingular has explored alternative design proposals that might be more acceptable to the community and the City Council. In the meantime, Sprint PCS also submitted an application to co- locate at the site with Cingular. In July 2004, staff retained the services of Jonathan Kramer to help provide technical advice to the City. Staff met with Mr. Kramer and the applicants, and the result is the proposal before the City Council at the current meeting, which is for each applicant to install antennas on four streetlight poles on Superior AS'eniie. The overall height 'rrv0uid be 35 feet. Assistant Planner Brown noted that the existing height of the streetlights is 32 feet. She stated that the support equipment would be located in a block wall enclosure within the nearby parking lot in a landscaped area. She noted that if this was a new application of the same design, it would not have been agendized because it complies with the requirements of the telecommunications ordinance. Council Member Rosansky asked why the streetlight poles couldn't remain at 32 feet and how different from the existing poles they would be. Assistant City Planner Brown stated that the poles themselves will be similar to the existing poles. The difference will be the antennas attached above the light standard. Council Member Rosansky noted that the lights will also extend out from the poles at a lower height and don't really look similar. Gil Gonzalez, Infranext, stated that he's representing Cingular on the • project. He displayed maps showing the existing coverage in the area, coverage with 35 -foot poles and coverage with 32 -foot poles. Council Member Rosanskv stated that the additional coverage with the INDEX (100 -2004) i City of Newport Beach City Council Minutes October 12, 2004 INDEX 35 -foot poles seems negligible. Mr. Gonzalez explained that the difference is more significant to a Radio Frequency (RF) engineer and that the initial objective was for a 50 -foot pole and the coverage that it would provide. Council Member Webb asked if the light could be placed above the antennas. Mr. Gonzalez stated that it's possible, but could interfere with coverage. Council Member Webb stated that lowering the light could have an effect on the light distribution on Superior Avenue. Council '.Member Daigle stated that the impact on aesthetics is a concern, and asked if research was done on how the 32 -foot poles would look in comparison to the 35 -foot poles. Mr. Gonzalez stated that they only learned of the concern for the 32 -foot poles the day prior and did not have the time to conduct research. He noted, however, that the 35- foot poles do comply with the height and design requirements, and that another carrier has already been approved for 35 feet. Council Member Daigle asked if the facility would provide 911 service, and noted that Superior Avenue and Coast Highway is a busy intersection. Jason Kozora, Sprint, stated that Sprint does have 911 coverage on its antennas. Council Member Daigle referred to the Federal mandate to provide E -911 service, which is enhanced 911 service with locator technology, and asked if this is also being provided- Mr. Kozora stated . that it is. Mr. Gonzalez confirmed that Cingular also has the capability on the site. Council Member Rosansky asked if alternative locations had been looked at and specifically if Hoag Hospital had been approached. Mr. Gonzalez stated that Hoag was contacted before the initial proposal was submitted and they weren't interested. In addition, the City stated that Hoag had already exceeded its height limitations. Council Member Rosansky stated that he spoke with a representative from Hoag and they indicated that they had not been contacted. Council Member Daigle confirmed with Mr. Gonzalez that antenna facilities can also be placed too high Council Member Heffernan reminded everyone that if the facilities are installed at Hoag, the City won't receive the revenue for leasing the sites. He asked if the rate had been determined and if it would be separate leases with Cingular and Sprint. Acting City Attorney Clausen stated that there would be two leases and they would total appro-4 mately W4000 per month for five years. Mr. Gonzalez stated that when Cingular looks for a site, the factors that are considered include the RF engineer's target objectives, leasing possibilities and compliance with the City's ordinance and development standards. Council Member Daigle asked if the proposal at the current meeting was • the second alternative, with the first being the flagpole. Mr. Gonzalez stated that it's actually the fourth alternative that was looked at, and that they also considered a lower flagpole and another alternative involving the streetlights. Volurne 56 - Page 1279 0 City of Newport Beach City Council Minutes October 12, 2004 0 INDE% Spiro Stameson expressed his opposition, and that of the Villa Balboa residents, to putting telecommunication antennas on streetlight poles along Superior Avenue. Be stated that there are other alternatives that should be considered first, such as palm trees, high rise buildings or vacant land, and that it is inappropriate to put the antennas on a busy street with the possibility of radiation. Joe Rozecho stated that he's a dentist, takes x -rays everyday and has to meet certain rules and restrictions in terms of safety. He stated that it is unknown how, much exposure he would face everyday from the antennas on Superior Avenue, and that the matter is serious and needs to be studied further. He stated that it is not just a matter of coverage and revenue, and urged the City Council to study the matter further and determine what the radiation exposure would be. Acting City Attorney Clausen stated that in 1996, the Federal government enacted the Telecommunications Act, which preempts cities from being able to regulate or deny cellular antennas based on radiation concerns as long as the installations comply with Federal Communications Commission (FCC) standards. Council Member Heffernan stated that the City began exploring cellular antennas on public property four years ago with the reasoning that the antennas are going to be installed anyway. He explained that installations are driven by market, Newport Beach is a high cell phone use area, installations can enhance service coverage and the City might as well get the revenue for the installations. He further explained that City ordinances were rewritten to deal with the installations. Jim Hildreth stated that if there are no problems with the antennas, they should be installed on City Hall. Ed Sherman stated that there are 150 to 800 units in Villa Balboa and Versailles, and that these taxpayers supply the City with more than 54,000 per month. He stated that they do not want the antennas in their front yard. Council Member Nichols asked if placing the antennas on Hoag Hospital would be better. Mr. Sherman stated that it would not and that they would be better on City Hall or across Coast Highway on the commercial development. He stated that there are other viable alternatives and the City Council should listen to the residents. Wendy Kaiser stated that she has concerns for the casting of the light on Superior Avenue if the height of the bulbs is changed. Additionally, she asked if the streetlight poles would be breakaway poles, in the case of a vehicle accident. Ms. Kaiser stated that she'd like to see a depiction of . what the proposal would look like. She stated that other locations and alternatives should also be looked at, although she does agree with using public property when possible for the revenue benefits. Volume 56 - Page 1290 0 City of Newport Beach City Council Minutes October 12, 2004 INDEX Mr. Gonzalez displayed several renderings showing what the proposal would look like. Council Member Rosansky confirmed with Mr. Gonzalez that the bulbs would be lowered from 32 feet to 30 feet with the proposal. Mr. Gonzalez stated that the antennas are 56 inches long by eight inches wide, and would be placed at the top of the poles. He further clarified that the bottom of the antennas would be at 30.5 feet. Mr. Gonzalez stated that Cingular has done a lot of compromising and that the proposed design is compatible with the surrounding area, complies with the wireless code and has been modeled after a site that has already been approved by the City. Holly Gerguss stated that installing the antennas in commercial and manufacturing zones should be considered. She specifically suggested that the Hoag Hospital site be considered. Ms. Gerguss asked if Coastal Commission approval was received for the proposed installation. Lastly, she stated that it is difficult to see how the proposal will look and she can understand the residents' frustration. Jeff Davis suggested that the use of the 300 -foot tower at the City's maintenance yard be considered. Monique Butrose stated that her main concerns are for the health and safety of the Villa Balboa residents. Additionally, she urged the City Council to look at the Coastal Commission guidelines and determine if a permit is needed for the installation of the antennas. Assistant Planner Brown introduced Jonathan Kramer, the technical adviser retained by the City. At the request of Mayor Ridgeway, Mr. Gonzalez confirmed that the nnterirtfi5 wn Wu be iu'ar acct el: giL, inches tau by eight inches wide by four inches thick. Acting City Attorney Clauson added that City standards would have to be met in regards to the construction of the poles. She stated, however, that there may be an issue with the lighting that wasn't considered and that this would have to be addressed by the Public Works Department. Mr. Kramer, RF Engineer, stated that he evaluated the proposals from both of the carriers, singularly and cumulatively, and has determined that the projects fully comply with FCC rules, In response to comments made by Mr. Rozecho, Mr. Kramer stated that cellular antennas involve non- ionizing radiation whereas x -rays involve ionizing radiation, which is a substantial difference, that the FCC preempts in this area anyway and that any exposure would occur directly in front of an antenna. He concluded that the radiation impact is a non - issue. Mr. Kramer further noted that both cellular companies are not looking to provide new coverage, but to enhance their network capacities, which is very location and height specific. He explaiiied that the coverage with the current proposal is similar to the coverage with the 50 -foot flagpole alternative because the streetlights are further up the hill on Superior Avenue. Volume 56 - Page 1281 0 0 City of Newport Beach City Council Minutes October 12, 2004 INDEX Council Member Rosansky asked if the streetlight poles could be lowered and located farther up the hill, and still provide similar coverage. Mr. Kramer stated that there are limitations on how far away the antennas can be from the base station equipment, and that they are probably close to their limit with the current proposal. Council ?Member Rosansky asked if the same poles could be used, but lowered to 32 feet. Mr. Kramer stated that the coverage change would probably not be dramatic, but noted that he would also expect requests for poles farther up the hill at some point in the future. Council Member Daigle asked Mr. Kramer to address the benefits of 911 and how the Federal mandates are being phased in. Mr. Kramer stated that E -911 service is a requirement of the FCC for carriers to identify to 911 operators the approximate location of a caller. He noted that the addition of sites enhances a carrier's ability to determine location. In response to earlier comments, Assistant City Manager Kiff stated that the Council's policy actually prioritizes the installation of cellular antennas on City buildings. He added that the policy also discourages the use of mono poles, such as fake palm trees. Linda Janowsky stated that there are so many unknowns with the proposal and that the residents are concerned for their safety. She specifically noted the Hoag Hospital methane gas tower and the lighting on Superior Avenue, and stated that these issues need to be addressed properly. Mr. Gonzalez stated that the proposal falls within the requirements of the FCC. In response to the lighting on Superior Avenue, he noted that the proposal actually adds one streetlight and that the plans have been routed to the Public Works Department for their review. D4r. Gonzalez stated that moving the antennas farther up the hill would affect the spacing of the streetlight poles, which is a concern of the Public Works Department. Council Member Webb asked if the antennas could be installed on Superior Avenue closer to Placentia Avenue. Mr. Gonzalez stated that the bluff would cause some of the coverage to be blocked. Carol Roth stated that she is concerned for the precedence that would be set by approving the current proposal and the possibility of antennas being installed farther up the hill in the future. Assistant Planner Brown stated that the telecommunications ordinance does limit the number of carriers that can be allowed at a specific site to three. Ross Ribaudo stated that the residents of Villa Balboa have been subjected to construction since 1991 on two sides of the complex, and that the proposal would cause construction on a third side. He stated that the residents want to make sure that they're protected and that Volume 56 - Page 1282 • 0 City of Newport Beach Citv Council Minutes October 12, 2004 17. safety factors have been considered. He asked the City Council to consider their frustration and concerns. Council Member Nichols stated that the public will learn that many antennas already exist in the community, such as at churches and schools, and that radiation is not a problem. Secondly, he stated that the gas plant at Hoag Hospital provides one of the safest and cleanest types of fuel available. Motion by Council Member Rosanskv to continue the item to November 9, 2004, to allow the applicant time to study whether they can make the project work at 32 feet, to provide plans showing actual dimensions of where the light standards will be, to coordinate the lighting with the Public Works Department and to explore the possibility of installing the antennas at Hoag hospital. Mayor Pro Tem Bromberg agreed that additional study should be required. Mr. Gonzalez confirmed that four weeks would provide adequate time for Cingular to do the additional study. Council Member Daigle stated that the aesthetics of the project design are good for a cellular antenna installation and that the reasons for providing the service should be taken into consideration. She explained that these include instantaneous communication, constant connectivity and a lifeline for public safety. The motion carried by the following roll call vote Ayes: Heffernan, Rosansky, Bromberg, Webb, Daigle, Mayor Ridgeway XT Noes: Nichols Abstain: None Absent: None Assistani-City Manager Kiff stated that the Santa Ana River Project was discuss e t the City Council meeting on August 24, 2004. At the direction of the Council, stall worked with the Army Corps of Engineers and the co ractor in an attempt to find an alternative method for disposing of t sand. He reported that an alternative method has been agreed upon kad a dredging company will work with the contractor. Assistant City a er Kiff displayed a schematic showing where the pipe and the proposeM area will be located. Council Member Rosansky commended staff on tiidmg an alternative method and the residents for bringing the matte to the City's attention. Assistant City Manager Kiff stated that the environmental assessment is available, and that copies can be obtained by c his office at 949 - 644 -3002. ,'olurne 56 - Page 1263 INDEX (100 -2004) 0 0 0 EXHIBIT NO. 4 New Site Plans and Elevations 0 z3 = I m O 099Z6 VIN20311V0 '3NIA8 W OOL Rins '3AI 20 NO S13H0W S4 ££ i I 9t9ze v� vsaw v> oo I vIsises s --oo9se c ss r>s s va a 1 o y. r Uv Y - I 09926 1!loa o a _ ao� rcooi �an - 991 -V 315 3AV UN18V1AVd OSl .r.i .'.ya.oa.B .V.a.Cn.a.q .

NOW THEREFORE, THE PARTIES AGREE AS FOLLOWS: License: City grants a non - exclusive license ( "License ") to Company for the term of this Agreement, to replace the Streetlights with the Replacement Streetlights, as it is • i depicted in Exhibit "D ", for the uses specified in this Agreement. City further grants to Company a non - exclusive license for ingress and egress to the Replacement Streetlights and License Area, for construction, installation and maintenance of the facilities and underground utility wires, cables, conduits as necessary to operate the Telecommunications Facilities, as defined below, subject to the terms of all governmental licenses, permits and approvals required by Federal, State or local governmental agencies. All installation and maintenance activities shall be at Company's sole cost and expense, including but not limited to the fees and costs associated with the permits and government approvals described in Article 3, pursuant to plans approved in advance in writing by the City. The license granted herein is subject to the terms, covenants and conditions hereinafter set forth, and Company covenants, as a material part of the consideration for this license, to keep and perform each and every term, covenant and condition of this Agreement. The Company shall be responsible for all maintenance associated with the Telecommunications Facilities. The City shall be responsible for all maintenance associated with the streetlight portion of the Replacement Streetlights, including but not limited to, the working streetlights themselves, the wires and equipment necessary to operate the streetlights, and the physical poles. Notwithstanding Company's construction and installation of the Replacement Streetlights, it is the parties' intention that Company's interest in the Replacement Streetlights is restricted to this License and the City retains all rights, title and interest in the Replacement Streetlights. 2. Uses: Company shall use the Replacement Streetlights and License Area for the sole purpose of constructing, maintaining, securing and operating a wireless telecommunications antenna and related facilities including any ground support equipment such as electric meters, vaults, above ground boxes, switch gear, transformers, etc., described in Exhibit "D ", to transmit and receive radio communication signals on various frequencies (between _ and _ MHZ), all in compliance with the approved site plans and related drawings dated on file with the City Planning Department, and the conditions of approval contained in the Telecommunications Permit issued by the Planning Department in accordance with Chapter 15.70 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code, ( "Telecom Permit" No. TP , ( )), (collectively, the "Telecommunications Facilities" or "Facilities "). The Telecommunications Facilities and operating frequencies may not be expanded or modified except upon written approval of an amended Telecom Permit and as may be required by this Agreement. Construction and operation of the Telecommunications Facilities shall be at Company's sole expense. Company shall keep the Replacement Streetlights and License Area free from hazards or risk to the public health, safety or welfare. Except as provided under this Agreement, Company shall not make or permit to be made any alterations, additions or improvements to the Replacement Streetlights and License Area, or paint, install lighting or decorations, or install 0 any signs, lettering or advertising media of any type or any other visual displays, on or about the Replacement Streetlights and License Area without the prior written consent of City. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Company shall have the right to place warning signs on or about the Replacement Streetlights or License Area in the manner required by Federal, State or local law. 3. Telecommunications Permit And Government Approvals: Prior to the issuance of a building permit for construction of the Telecommunications Facilities, Company shall obtain a Telecommunications Permit from the City and an Encroachment Permit from the Public Works Department. Company shall comply with all conditions of approval contained in the Telecom Permit and the Encroachment Permit. Company shall obtain all other governmental licenses, permits and approvals required by Federal, State or local governmental agencies, enabling Company to construct, operate, repair and remove the Telecommunications Facilities in the License Area. 4- Term: The initial Term of the license granted hereunder ( "Term ") shall commence on the Commencement Date and continue for a period of five (5) years. For purposes of this Agreement, the "Commencement Date' shall be the first to occur of (i) the first day of the month following the date City issues a building permit to allow Company to construct the Facilities on the License Area, or (ii) six (6) months after the date of this Agreement, whichever comes first. After the Commencement Date, this License shall not be revoked or terminated except as expressly provided in this Agreement. This Agreement shall automatically be extended, on the same terms and conditions as set forth in this Agreement, for up to three (3) successive terms of five (5) years each ( "Renewal Terms ") unless at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Term or any Renewal Term, Company notifies City in writing of Company's intention not to extend this Agreement and by the end of the then current Term or Renewal Term the Company also complies with the surrender conditions of Section 17 below. Notwithstanding the above, this Agreement shall not be automatically extended if Company has defaulted in the performance of any term or condition of the Agreement and has failed to cure such default after notice as provided in this Agreement. 5. Fees and Costs: a. Within fifteen (15) days following the Commencement Date, and on the first day of each month during the Term and each Renewal Term, Company shall pay to City a License Fee in an amount of Two Thousand Two Hundred and 00/100 Dollars ($2200.00) per month, adjusted in accordance with paragraph (b) immediately below (the License Fee, as adjusted herein, is referred to as the "License Fee "). The License Fee for any partial month shall be prorated in accordance with the actual number of days in that month. 0 0 b. Beginning in year two of the Term of this Agreement, the License Fee shall automatically increase each and every year during the Term and any Renewal Term, upon the Anniversary Date, with the exception of any Anniversary Date on which the fee is being increased under Section 6, below, to "Market Rate" (as defined below). The amount of increase shall be four percent (4 %) of the License Fee in effect immediately preceding the increase. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the License Fee upon which the annual increase is calculated may be adjusted prior to and effective upon each Renewal Term in accordance with Section 6 below. C. A ten percent (10 %) penalty shall be added to the License Fee if not received by City within 15 days following the due date. In addition all unpaid fees shall accrue interest at the rate of one - and -a -half percent (11/ %) per month or any portion of a month until paid in full. 6. Adiustment of License Fee Upon Renewal: Sixty (60) days prior to the start of each Renewal Term, City and Company shall meet to confer regarding the Market Rate of the Telecommunications Facilities. The Market Rate shall be established by City through rent surveys or appraisals of rents or license fees paid for similar facilities in similar California locations. The Parties recognize that the annual increase in the License Fee as required by Section 5(b) may cause the License Fee to be greater than, less than, or equal to the Market Rate. If the Market Rate is greater than the License Fee as adjusted by the annual increase in 5(b) above, then the License Fee for the Renewal Term shall be adjusted to the higher Market Rate for the next Renewal Term. If lower or equal to the Market Rate, the License Fee for the Renewal Term shall be the License Fee, including the annual adjustment required under Section 5(b) above. . 7. Adiustment of License Fee Upon Modification of Uses: The License Fee set out in this paragraph is based upon the Facilities, Replacement Streetlights and License Area permitted by the Telecom Permit. Changes in the Facilities, Replacement Streetlights or License Area may increase the value of this License Agreement. To the degree that a change in the Facilities requires amendment or modification to the Telecom Permit, City and Company understand and mutually agree that a corresponding increase in the Market Rate of the Telecommunications Facilities may be reflected in an adjustment to the License Fee. Such an adjustment may be defined at the time at which Company seeks City's approval for modifications in the Telecommunications Facilities described in Paragraph 2, and shall be mutually agreed to by the Parties as a condition of the City's approval of such expanded service by the Company. 8. Interference with Citv Telecommunications: a. Company agrees that its operation of the Telecommunications Facilities shall at all times comply with all Federal Communications Commission �J • • ( "FCC ") requirements and shall not cause any direct or indirect interference with the operation of the Replacement Streetlights as streetlights or City's own wireless communications facilities, including but . not limited to public safety transmissions, police and fire communications, water or sewer internal or external radio signals and communications, as they now exist or may from time -to -time hereafter exist ( "City's facilities'). b. In the event of any interference with City Police and Fire Department public safety communications, Company shall work with the affected Department to correct the interference within two (2) hours of City's written or telephone notice to Company. In the event of interference with City's streetlights or own wireless communications system or external radio signals and communications other than Police or Fire Department, Company shall work with City to correct the interference within twenty -four (24) hours of City's written or telephone notice. If it is determined the interference is caused by the Facilities and if Company is unable to correct interference to City's satisfaction, Company shall cease its operation of the Telecommunications Facilities at the end of such time period until the cause of the interference is corrected to City's satisfaction. If Company fails to correct any interference, City may, in addition to and without compromising any other available remedy cut off power to the facility in the manner set forth in Section 9 below. C. Prior to making any changes to the frequency or operating conditions approved by the Telecom Permit, Company shall submit plans for the proposed changes to City for its review and approval. Company agrees to fund any studies required to ensure that any contemplated changes will be compatible with the City's facilities. No Company change shall occur prior to the City's approval. . 9. Emergency: a. Company understands that the Telecommunications Facilities are located on a public structure or within public property and emergency situations may develop from time -to -time that require power to the Telecommunications Facilities to be immediately shut off and thereby interfere or temporarily terminate the Company's use of its Facilities on the Replacement Streetlights and License Area. Notwithstanding Paragraph 8 of this Agreement, Company agrees that if such a situation occurs, and there are frequency interferences of any nature between City's Police and Fire Department public safety communications equipment or City's facilities affecting operation of sewer or water service and that of Company in a manner that threatens public health or safety, City shall have the right to immediately shut off power to the Telecommunications Facilities and any equipment of Company's located on the Replacement Streetlights for the duration of the emergency. Company agrees not to hold City responsible or liable for and shall protect, defend, indemnify and hold City harmless for any damage, loss, claim or liability of any nature suffered as a result of the loss of the use of the Telecommunications E "J Facilities or other communication facilities by the shut off of po•. b. Company agrees to install a clearly marked & accessible master power • "cut -off' switch on their equipment for the purpose of assisting City in such an emergency. C. Unless otherwise specifically provided in a notice of termination of this Agreement, City's exercise of the right to shut off any power to the Telecommunications Facilities pursuant to Paragraph 9a is not intended to constitute a termination of this Agreement by either party and such event is a risk accepted by the Company. Company and City shall meet after the City determines that an emergency situation has ended to establish the time and manner in which power shall be restored.

Zeitoune D.D.S 200 Paris Lane #315 Newport Beach; CA 92663 Villa Balboa This letter is a follow up on the city council meeting that was held on October 12, 2004 at Newport Beach City Hall in reference to the safety issue of the antenna to be installed on Superior Avenue. I understand that the project is following the federal Guidelines of safety : however. that does not Guarantee safety of the residence and or users of Superior Avenue and Sunset Park. Federal agencies can only set general rules and guidelines; however, federal agencies can not and do not study each project individually; including factors pertaining to the risk involved and the safety of human beings in a particular project. Our system, however, allows each city to have a city council member responsible for taking precautionary measures and final decisions.. even surpassing federal rules and regulations basing theirjudgments on COMMON SENSE. Common sense laws should apply in this project as the 800 tenants in this area can not afford any health risk to be taken that might be scientifically discovered only several years from now. We often experience cases where federal rules and regulations were present for years. yet altered or changed because science and technology discovered that what seemed to be safe is no longer considered so. It has to be beyond any reasonable doubt that the presence of antennas on Superior Avenue is safe for tenants, for the city council members to approve such a location, otherwise the members of the city council have no options but to move the project to a different location. PLEASE CONSIDER OTHER OPTIONS AT OR AROUND HOAG HOSPITAL STRUCTURES (excluding the high Hoaa tower) THAT ARE IN VERY CLOSE SIMILARITY TO THE PROPOSED LOCATION ON SUPERIOR AVENUE IN TERMS OF CLOSENESS TO PACIFIC COAST HIGHWAY AND THE REQUESTED HEIGHT OF 32 -35 FEET. A GOOD LOCATION WOULD BE ON TOP OF THE OLD PARKING STRUCTURE AT HOAG HOSPITAL FACING THE HARBOR. I urge and remind the city council members that their job is depending on common sense not on federal rules and regulations that can change in years to come as science and new discoveries, in regards to safety, will emerge in the future. I Look forward to meeting with you on November 9`t at the city council meeting. If you have any questions regarding this matter please contact me at (949) 515 -8181 Tarek G.M.

RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that City Council: 1) Approve Telecom Permit No. 2003 -003 and Telecom Permit No. 2004 -002 subject to the Findings and Conditions of Approval attached to the staff report; and 2) Authorize the City Manager to execute the Telecommunications License Agreements. BACKGROUND At the meeting of May 11, 2004, the City Council reviewed Cingular Wireless's proposal to • install a wireless telecommunication facility designed as a 50 -foot flagpole and the ground- mounted support equipment. Of primary concern to City Council and the public was the impact a 50 -foot tall facility would have on views from the residential developments of Villa Balboa and Newport Crest, and the Sunset View Park located JG0 West Coast Highway October 12, 2004 Page 2 above the subject property. Following discussion by City Council and testimony from • the public, a motion was made to direct staff to look into the various issues discussed, explore alternatives and provide additional information. Staff was also directed to retain the services of a consultant to give an independent evaluation relative to the feasibility of using existing structures in the vicinity. A copy of the previous staff report and minutes of the prior meeting are attached for reference. After the May Council meeting, staff met with the representatives of Cingular Wireless and encouraged them to explore the use of existing streetlights along Superior Avenue as a structure onto which the antennas could be attached. Cingular proposed the installation of three panel antennas on a single reconstructed streetlight pole that would be 24 inches in diameter in order to accommodate the cables that would run from the antennas to the support equipment. Staff rejected this proposal due to the disproportional size of the new streetlight pole. In the meantime, Sprint PCS submitted an application in March, 2004, requesting to install a wireless telecom facility and co- locate with Cingular Wireless at the subject property. Sprint's initial design proposal was also a 50 -foot flagpole with ground - mounted support equipment. However, the application was incomplete due to absent information and no action had been taken by the applicant at the time of Council's review of Cingular's application. In July, 2004, staff met with representatives of both Cingular Wireless and Sprint PCS to • coordinate a facility design for the two carriers. Also present at the meeting was Jonathan L. Kramer of Kramer.Firm, Inc., who was retained by staff to provide technical advice to the city relative to the two proposals. Mr. Kramer offered solutions to address the technical challenges faced by the applicants and proposed a redesign of the wireless telecom facility that would minimize the impact on views in the area. A copy of Mr. Kramer's report is attached as Exhibit 4. The report discusses the purpose of the projects and the applicants' desire to improve coverage and capacity to their existing networks, the design of the project, and an analysis of the radio frequency emissions. The new design proposal is the result of a coordinated effort on the part of the applicants, the technical consultant and staff. Cingular Wireless has taken the lead, working with Sprint PCS to coordinate a comprehensive design of the facilities. Rather than using a single structure to accommodate the antennas needed, each carrier will separate the sectors and use two streetlights each to account for all antennas. The method reduces the height and diameter of the poles and helps address the policy to utilize the most efficient available technology and minimize the visual impact on views in the area. DISCUSSION Cingular Wireless and Sprint PCS propose to develop two wireless telecom facilities at the • subject property located at the southeasterly corner of Superior Avenue and West Coast Highway. The subject property is city -owned and developed with a municipal parking lot. The facility antennas are proposed to be mounted on streetlight poles located in the public • 60 West Coast Highway October 12, 2004 Page 3 right -of -way along Superior Avenue and the support equipment would be co- located and ground- mounted in separate enclosure structures in a landscaped area within the parking lot. Please refer to the new plans and elevations prepared by the applicants that are attached to this report. Each wireless telecom facility will consist of three sectors of one panel antenna per sector. The carriers propose to install a single panel antenna on one streetlight pole and two panel antennas on a second streetlight pole, utilizing a total of four streetlight poles. The streetlight poles will be reconstructed to ensure the structural integrity of the poles as well as to accommodate the coaxial cables that run from the panel antennas to the support equipment cabinets. Analysis Staff has evaluated the height, location, size and design of the proposed wireless telecom facilities and their relationship to the surrounding land uses in the vicinity based on the new proposal submitted by Cingular Wireless and Sprint PCS. The existing streetlight poles are approximately 32 feet in height measured from the top of existing sidewalk. The reconstructed light poles will be manufactured to match the design • of the existing streetlights. Each proposed streetlight pole will be 8 -sided with faux concrete finish that is 12 inches in diameter at the base, tapering to 8 inches at the top, which is similar to the existing streetlights as per the attached copy of the Lighting Standard STD -201 -L used by the Public Works Department. The overall height of the reconstructed streetlight poles, with the panel antennas attached, will not exceed 35 feet measured from the top of sidewalk. Section 15.70.050 A (Height and Location) of the Municipal Code states the maximum height of antennas on streetlights within the public right -of -way may be 35 feet. The panel antennas measure 56 inches in length by 8 inches wide and 2.75 inches thick, per the plans, and will be attached to the upper 5 feet of the light poles. When attached to the streetlight pole, the antenna will project 5 inches beyond the face of the pole. The antennas will be painted to match the color and texture of the light poles and staff has included a speck condition of approval recommended by Mr. Kramer relative to this requirement. The coaxial cables that connect the antennas to the support equipment cabinets will be located within the poles and will not be visible. The light standards will be attached below the antennas, approximately 28 feet above existing finished grade and will be properly shrouded to control the level of light and glare. Section 15.70.050 B provides location categories and the desired priority order of wireless telecom facilities. Existing poles, light standards or utility towers are listed second in order of priority on a list of eight locations. The wireless telecom facilities proposed by Cingular Wireless and Sprint PCS are consistent with and meet the intent of this section of the is ordinance. Two of the reconstructed streetlight poles, located to the west (or down hill side) of the entry driveway to the parking lot, will be replaced in the same location as the existing light 40 West Coast Highway October 12, 2004 Page 4 poles, and two panel antennas will be attached to each of the two reconstructed poles. A • third existing streetlight pole currently located approximately 100 feet up hill to the east of the entryway will be removed from its present location and replaced with two new streetlight poles. The new streetlight poles will have a single panel antenna and will be placed an equal distance of approximately 129 feet from each other. By placing a single antenna on the streetlight poles that are higher up Superior Avenue, the impact on views from the Sunset View Park and residents in the Villa Balboa and Newport Crest developments are minimized. In addition, this location for sector facing north assists in meeting the applicants' coverage objectives. On behalf of both applicants, Cingular Wireless has prepared photographic visual simulations from four different vantage points which are attached to this report. The support equipment of four base transreceiver units per carrier will be ground - mounted in two block wall structures built into a sloping landscaped area within the parking lot. As required by the Design Guidelines of the Telecom Ordinance, staff has included a Condition of Approval that the equipment cabinets be fully enclosed and securely locked in the block wall structures and that the enclosure structures be screened with plantings to match the existing landscaping with the intent of blending in with the existing topography and environment. Based on the foregoing information, staff believes that the new design of the proposed • facilities is consistent with the design standards, height and location requirements of Chapter 15.70 (Wireless Telecommunications Facilities) of the Newport Beach Municipal Code. Co- Location Requirements The Telecom Ordinance includes a provision that new telecom facilities located within 1,000 feet of one another shall be required to co- locate on the same site in order to limit the adverse visual effects of a proliferation of telecom sites in the city unless it is determined that such co- location is not feasible. The applicants have coordinated to develop the proposed facilities that are consistent in design, and meet the co- location requirements of the ordinance. Included in the co- location requirement section of the ordinance is a limitation of no more than three facilities at a single site. In approving this telecom facility, the City Council may impose a condition of approval requiring the future co- location of a third and final telecom facility on this site. This provision has been included as Condition No. 18 in the Conditions of Approval. Public Notification A notification describing the proposal and the date and time of the City Council review was mailed to property owners of record and homeowner associations within 300 feet of • the proposed location of the telecom facilities. This notice was mailed on September 28, 2004, which complies with the minimum notification requirement of 10 days in advance of the Council review date. Sb0 West Coast Highway October 12, 2004 Page 5 • TELECOMMUNICATIONS LICENSE AGREEMENT Both Cingular Wireless and Sprint PCS have been working with the City Manager's office to negotiate a Telecommunications License Agreement (TLA) that will authorize them to use this location under certain conditions. The Agreement will describe the site rent, rent increases, the term (up to four 5 -year terms), bonding and insurance, co- location requirements, restrictions on transfers, and other obligations of Cingular Wireless and Sprint PCS and the City. ENCROACHMENT PERMIT The installation of the telecom facilities at the subject site will also require encroachment permits issued by the Public Works Department to allow construction of the facility on public property. This will be issued only if the City Council approves the telecom permits. Alternatives 1. The City Council has the option to alter the proposed design, conditions of approval or lease agreement in order to address the specific concerns the • Council or public may have. 2. The City Council can deny the subject permit, in which case both the agreement and permit shall not be executed. Prepared by: Ja et hr son Brown A istd{ fanner Submitted by: Patricia L.

Assistant Planner Brown responded in the negative. Council Member Rosansky noted the photo simulations provided by the applicant, but stated that they didn't show the view from several surrounding neighborhoods. Assistant Planner Brown reported that she did request additional simulations, but did not receive them. Council Member Rosansky asked if the facility would be visible from these neighborhoods and impact their views. He also asked if the flagpole would be required to be illuminated at night. Assistant Planner Brown responded in the affirmative to all of these questions. Council Member Rosansky asked if the pole would be able to accommodate other carriers cell sites. Assistant Planner Brown stated that Cingular Wireless has stated that it will not, but that the City does encourage this. Council Member Rosansky stated that the City can expect to have multiple applications for the site. He also noted the maps provided by Cingular Wireless showing the coverage for a 35 -foot facility and a 50 -foot facility. He stated that they were a bit misleading, but it appears that the additional coverage isn't significant. Council Member Rosansky also asked if the height limit were reduced to 35 feet if an existing light standard could be utilized. Assistant Planner Brown stated that Cingular Wireless has indicated that it would be a problem because there wouldn't be room for the supporting equipment cabinets. Council Member Nichols asked if the possibility of other carriers using • the same site had been looked at. City Manager Bludau stated that the City would encourage this. Volume 56 - Page 894 INDEX C -3706 Telecommunica -tions License Agreement 4600 West Coast Hwy./ Cingular Wireless (38/100-2004) „' 1 Assistant Planner Brown stated that the application by Cingular Wireless is the first application submitted to the City since the telecommunications ordinance was adopted. She stated that the facility is proposed to be located on City -owned property and requires special review by the City Council because the applicant is proposing a facility that is 50 feet in height. The maximum height allowed is 35 feet. Assistant Planner Brown stated that Cingular Wireless has designed the facility as a 50 -foot flagpole, 24 inches in diameter with three panel antennas concealed within the flagpole. The support equipment will be ground - mounted with a retaining block wall enclosure adjacent to the flagpole. She listed the findings that will be necessary for the City Council to make in order to approve the application, and that Cingular Wireless has stated that they have a coverage deficiency in this portion of the City. Cingular Wireless investigated a lower facility and other locations in the area, but there may be other alternatives that have not been identified. The impact on views is also a concern. Assistant Planner Brown reported that the Police Department provided several recommendations to mitigate any ■ ■■■ E� potential interference with the City's emergency communication systems, and that these included in for are the conditions approval. • Council Member Rosansky asked if the City had made any independent evaluations of the alternatives and the necessity for a 50- foot high structure.

He noted in particular a lighthouse design, and stated that it was less obtrusive than the flagpole design and would accommodate multiple users. He stated that he'd like to see other designs considered, and the possibility of using the site above the proposed site. Council Member Heffernan stated that the City becoming a landlord of cell sites has been looked at for four years. He stated that it improves cell coverage for the area and provides the City with a new revenue source. He felt that it would be the objective of the City to become the landlord of multiple cell sites, and noted that the cell providers are accustomed to dealing with site specific issues in other communities. Mayor Ridgeway stated that there will have to be discretionary action by the City on any alternate sites. Gil Gonzalez, Cingular Wireless, stated that there was not a difference in the scale of the two maps that were presented. He stated that other alternatives were investigated, and that the lower height wasn't acceptable to Cingular Wireless. He explained that the higher the facility, the better the coverage. He also noted that there isn't enough room for their equipment cabinets on the sidewalks if the existing light standards are utilized. Additionally, Mr. Gonzalez stated that other designs were not looked at because it was felt that the flagpole design was the most compatible. In response to co- locating with another carrier, he stated that he'd have to look into the structural compatibility. Council Member Rosansky asked for a better explanation as to why the existing light standards can't be used. Mr. Gonzalez stated that Cingular Wireless desires to have the equipment cabinets within 100 feet of the antennas. Jayson Mojica, Cingular Wireless, stated that it's not only the loss of coverage, it's the number of cables that are needed. He explained that four cables are needed per antenna, which means that 24 cables will be needed. Council Member Rosansky asked if it would be feasible to locate the antennas within the existing light standards and run the cables to the proposed cabinet location. He expressed his understanding that Cingular Wireless desires to limit the cable run. Mr. Mojica stated that the coverage would suffer and the structure wouldn't be able to handle the number of cables. He admitted it would be feasible, but that he hasn't looked at that alternative. He further explained that the terrain rises drastically above the site. Council Member Rosansky asked if it would be possible to achieve the same coverage with two 35 -foot cell sites instead of one 50 -foot cell site. Mr. Mojica stated that Cingular Wireless already has sites within a mile of the proposed site, and that the proposed site is needed because of the problem with the terrain. He stated that a second site would probably end up being located where there is already a cell site and coverage. Mr. Gonzalez added that the coverage objective of the search ring was recommended by the Cingular Wireless engineers and that the location is chosen so that it doesn't overlap coverage with existing sites, which can cause Volume 56 - Page 895 INDEX • L J a := • • • City of Newport Beach • • Regular Meeting May 11, 2004 INDEX interference. Council Member Rosansky referred to the maps provided by Cingular Wireless and asked what the difference is between "good" and "marginal" coverage. Mr. Mojica stated that "marginal" would result in 25% of the calls being dropped. Council Member Bromberg asked if Cingular Wireless had installed a facility such as the one proposed in such close proximity to residential areas. Mr. Gonzalez responded in the affirmative. Council Member Bromberg asked if Cingular Wireless conducted any outreach for the proposed facility. Mr. Gonzalez responded in the negative, but stated that Cingular Wireless was available to respond to any comments as a result of the entitlement process. Mayor Ridgeway asked if the residents of Villa Balboa and the other community associations on the bluff were notified. Assistant Planner Brown reported that a mailing was done to property owners within 300 feet of the proposed site, which included Villa Balboa and Newport Crest. Chris Hansen, Newport Crest, stated that a 24 -inch diameter steel pipe is not a pole, it's a cylinder. He stated that he was not notified of the project. Mayor Ridgeway requested that a map of the radius where the notices were sent be provided to the City Council. Council Member Rosansky additionally asked when the notices were sent. Mr. Hansen stated that after learning of the project, he met with the Planning Department and gained a better understanding of the situation. Mr. Hansen stated that the facility would impact the views from his property and he referred to Resolution No. 83 -43, which provides view protection for Newport Crest. Mr. Hansen requested that the City Council limit the height of the facility to 35 feet, as required by City ordinance. Additionally, he requested that residents of Newport Crest be notified of this and future telecommunication facilities. Frank Jenes, Villa Balboa Board of Directors, provided a handout and stated that Cingular Wireless seems to be taking advantage of the City's rules for flagpole height. He stated that the proposed facility isn't a flagpole and that the height combined with the base and the elevation, puts the total height at 84 feet, which is 12 feet above the bluff. Mr. Jenes stated that approving the facility would also set an inappropriate precedence. He stated that the site should not be used for such a tall structure and he provided photos to Illustrate the impact on the views from Sunset View Park. Mr. Jenes stated that it would be helpful to have a visual of what the facility would look like. Lastly, he expressed his concern for the facility having to be illuminated. Jim Hildreth stated that he has nothing against Cingular Wireless, but that it reminds him of the pole at the end of Park Avenue on Little Volume 56 - Page $96 1�?3 City of Newport Beach • • Regular Meeting May 11, 2004 Balboa Island, which is a that stinks. He stated that it appears to be a contradiction by the City to underground utility poles and then recommend approval of the proposed facility. He stated that it's being done for revenue and that the Mayor may have a conflict of interest if he gets revenue from such facilities also. Mr. Hildreth stated that the residents have a right to a view. Mayor Ridgeway asked if he had a contract with a company, other than Cingular Wireless, if he had a conflict of interest. City Attorney Burnham responded in the negative. Ross Ribaudo, Villa Balboa, stated that he did receive a notice and that it was dated April 1, 2004. He asked if the tower would have a direct affect on the public views from Sunset View Park and would the exemption to the policy inspire Hoag Hospital to appeal their current height limitations. Additionally, he asked if it would be safe to build a steel tower on a known field of methane gas and close to a power - generating plant that will be using natural gas as its fuel. Donald Richroath, Villa Balboa, stated that the pole is a monstrosity. He urged the City Council to limit the height of the structure to the existing limitations imposed on Hoag Hospital. He complimented the idea of considering a lighthouse design. Mayor Ridgeway referred to the photos in the staff report and noted that the dimension of the flag is 12 feet by 18 feet. He stated that the illustrations appear to be out of scale and that the flag doesn't appear to be in proportion to the pole. Mayor Pro Tern Adams stated that the two drawings are not of the same scale. Council Member Bromberg stated that a flagpole would be nice, but agreed that the proposed facility isn't really a flagpole. He stated that the 50 -foot pole at the end of Park Avenue on Balboa Island is a vent from a sewer pump station and looks like a flagpole. He stated that it's a nice looking structure. Council Member Bromberg noted the resolution referred to by Mr. Hansen and stated that the proposed facility does appear to violate the terms. Lastly, Council Member Bromberg expressed his concern for setting a precedence by approving a 50 -foot pole with a 24 -inch base. Mayor Ridgeway stated that the resolution appears to be related to an Environmental Impact Report (EIR) for a project that was never built. He asked if it was still valid. City Attorney Burnham stated that it only pertains to the CalTrans West site, has been superseded and is probably not relevant. Council Member Bromberg stated that it still provides an indication of what the policymakers in the City were thinking in 1983 and their concern for preserving views. Council Member Rosansky stated that the Superior Avenue /Coast Highway intersection is a fairly key intersection in West Newport, and Volume 56 - Page 897 INDEX • • City of Newport Beach • • Regular Meeting May 11, 2004 • that there is residential development and a view park in the area, all of which will be impacted by the pole. He stated that it's not just a matter of approving a 50 -foot pole, it's also a matter of considering the use of the existing structures in the area. He felt that the item should be continued and that staff should hire a consultant to look into the claims made by the applicant about the necessity for a 50 -foot structure and the feasibility of using existing structures. Additionally, he felt that a demonstration should also be done to give an accurate depiction of what the structure will look like. Motion by Council Member Rosansky to continue the item, and direct staff to hire a consultant to look into the issues discussed and provide more information. Mayor Ridgeway stated that he didn't want to discourage the applicant, but that the intersection is significant and the proposed design is not in good taste. He also expressed his support for improving coverage, collecting the revenue and continuing to work with the applicant, and agreed that more information is needed. City Manager Bludau stated that it could cost the City $5,000 to verify the informatiorr provided by the applicant. He encouraged the City Council to consider if a 50 -foot tower would even be approved. Council Member Rosansky stated that he's opposed to a 50 -foot tower, but that he couldn't rule it out if it is determined that it is the only • feasible alternative. He felt that an independent evaluation would be helpful. Assistant City Attorney Clauson noted that the matter would not be before the City Council if the applicant had not requested the additional 15 feet above the current height limit. She stated that if the item is, continued, the City can continue to work with the applicant. Mayor Pro Tern Adams expressed his concern for the applicant currently having the ability to install a 35 -foot pole which is two feet in diameter. Assistant City Attorney Clauson stated that there are also provisions for flagpoles, and that the applicant would have to show that their proposed facility qualifies as a flagpole. City Attorney Burnham stated that continuing the matter would allow the City and the applicant to work on a design that would be more palatable to the City Council and the community. Mayor Pro Tern Adams stated that although the example of a lighthouse being done tastefully might be possible, he expressed his concern for the City Council not having discretionary approval on such facilities. He felt that the ordinance may need to be looked at again. Council Member Heffernan suggested that the policy include direction to staff to contact the district's council member prior to presenting the proposal to the full City Council. He stated that the ordinance was meant to streamline the process and encourage cellular carriers to install sites on City -owned property, and that an initial read by the • council member on the aesthetics issue might save some time and money. Volume 56 - Page 898 INDEX �J City of Newport Beach . • Regular Meeting May 11, 2004 N. Assistant City Manager Kiff stated that such a provision is included in the policy. He explained that when a proposal is not required to go to the City Council, the City Manager's office is still required to notify the council members of the pending application and the City Council has the right to call the item up for review. City Attorney Burnham pointed out the importance of the application under consideration, since it will set the stage for future permits. Mayor Ridgeway agreed that it was appropriate to be careful. Amended motion by Council Member Rosansky to continue the item to the City Council meeting of June 8, 2004, and direct staff to hire a consultant to look into the issues discussed and provide more information. Council Member Nichols asked if the poles in Newport Coast are similar to the proposed pole. Council Member Heffernan stated that those poles are for the Edison supply lines, but that an example of one can be found at MacArthur Boulevard and Jamboree Road. The amended motion carried by the following roll call vote Ayes: Heffernan, Rosansky, Adams, Bromberg, Nichols, Mayor Ridgeway Noes: None Abstain: None Absent: Webb 19. CABLE COMMUNICATIONS FRANCHISES ORDINANCE. Assistant City Manager Kiff stated that the City has worked extensively with the cable companies on the proposed ordinance and that it is the second one being presented to the City Council. Council Member Heffernan stated that the proposed ordinance was also reviewed by the Ad Hoc Telecommunications Committee and outside legal counsel. He pointed out that the ordinance does not extend the franchise agreements with Adelphia and Cox, but is needed. Assistant City Manager Kiff explained that the ordinance provides the framework for how the City would treat any cable company. After it's adopted, the City will work with Adelphia and Cox to enter into agreements that follow the ground rules. Mayor Ridgeway noted that the ground rules are limited since the Federal Government has preempted the cable franchise industry. Assistant City Manager Kiff added that the City can't control the rates, for example. Jim Hildreth stated that the ordinance does not include a provision for Volume 56 - Page 899 INDEX • Cable Communication s Franchises Ordinance (42/100-2004) J J'� 0 0 0 EXHIBIT NO. 4 Project Analysis by Jonathan L. Kramer 0 0 9 • October 1, 2004 Ms. Janet Johnson Brown Assistant Planner City of Newport Beach Planning Department 3300 Newport Boulevard Newport Beach, CA 92658 Re: Applications of Cingular Wireless and Sprint PCS for a Wireless Co- location Facility on Superior Avenue near West Coast Highway Subject: Project Analysis Dear Ms. Brown: At the direction of the City of Newport Beach I have reviewed the project plans and underlying technical information provided by applicants Cingular Wireless and Sprint PCS for the referenced location. The scope of my review included an evaluation of the physical elements of the proposed project and the FCC OET Bulletin 65 radio frequency emissions compliance for the two firms proposed joint use. • Background As you are aware, Cingular and Sprint both applied for stand -alone radio tow- ers in the parking lot at the comer of West Coast Highway and Superior Ave- nue. On July 22, 2004 the City met with the applicants' representatives to discuss how we might achieve some level of visual mitigation while balancing the ap- plicants' interests to establish additional service in the target areas. At that meeting we explored the possibility of visually aligning the two projects to share common design elements utilizing light standards along Superior Ave- `• nue as antenna supports. Km .Firm inc relecommunimtlonsre tAgegy Coemd for Govemmen[ggery As a result, the applicants have now submitted a jointly- engineered plan that abandons the use of stand -alone towers and in place of those towers uses des and vie lnadaniv. s small antennas mounted atop light standards along Superior Avenue.

Barrington A�.e Lm Angeles, Caffo m 90025 -5379 <Balance of page intentionally left blank> 0 0 K/ MW * Ms. Janet Johnson Brown October 1, 2004 Page 2 Project Purpose Both applicants indicate that they have existing radio frequency coverage in the areas of interest. Their mirrored goals are to add additional signal strength and network capacity in these areas. Both applicants share a common purpose and goal in connection with the pro- posed project. Both firms seek to provide additional signal strength and net- work capacity in the area abutting the project. Cingular's area of interest is along West Coast Highway from about 54h St. to the intersection of W. Balboa Boulevard and south along W. Balboa Boule- vard to 37th Street. Its second area of interest is in the bluff area above the project site. Sprint's area of interest is generally along West Coast Highway from about Brookhmst south to W. Balboa Boulevard, and south along W. Balboa Boule- vard to about 30th Street. Sites of this nature permit wireless carvers to enhance existing service in highly traveled areas by adding both signal strength above their minimum lev- els, and by adding network capacity to handle more users in the areas of inter- est. Current Design Cingular and Sprint jointly proposed to install their antennas on four light standards along Superior Avenue, and to place their base station equipment in an area adjacent to the parking lot at Superior and West Coast Highway. Connections between the base station equipment, power and telephone utili- ties, and the antennas will all be via underground conduits. The proposed coordinated project design of both applicants substantially re- duces the visual impact of both projects over their initial requests at the park- ing lot, and by the alignment of the light standard antenna designs, makes both projects appear to be of one design, thus calling less attention to both projects as might be the case with different designs. The applicants' do not propose using radomes (antenna covers) on the light standards to shield the visual elements of the antennas. It is my opinion that in these cases, the proposed designs would not substantially benefit from the Kramerfirm inc 0 • is �0 I� • �� Ms. Janet Johnson Brown October 1, 2004 Page 3 inclusion of radomes. Rather, requiring the applicants to include radomes in their designs here would add to the overall project height and call additional attention to the project. The applicants generically indicate that they intend to color -match portions of the projects to the light standards. I recommend as a condition of approval the inclusion of more specific language similar to: "Applicant shall color -match all exposed elements of the project including without limitation all antennas, antenna brackets, cables, and all appurte- nances thereto installed on each light standard to the color of each light standard." The City's Planning Department should review and retain approval authority for the proposed color and texture matching required by the language just pro- posed. • Radio Frequency Emissions Analysis Both applicants are subject to the FCC's OET Bulletin 65 radio frequency emissions requirements. That bulletin is titled, "Evaluating Compliance With FCC Guidelines for Human Exposure to Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields." (See www.FCC.gov /oet/rfsafety.) • Kr er.Firm inc The FCC sets the national radio frequency emissions safety standards in the U.S. Further, the FCC "completely occupies the field" of standards setting in this subject area. As such, the City is not permitted to set its own local stan- dards for radio frequency emissions, whether higher, lower, or the same. The City is, however, authorized by the FCC to evaluate planned compliance with the federal rules in connection with these applications. Cingular and Sprint have both provided the adequate, usual, and customary documentation to demonstrate planned compliance with the FCC's rules on a single site and on a cumulative basis (when considering radio frequency emis- sions from both sites). Using the antenna information, power emissions, and angle of emissions in- formation in both applications, I have conducted my own evaluation of the planned radio frequency emissions by both applicants using the FCC's ap- proved calculation formulas contained in FCC OET 65. My independent modeling permits me to concur with both applicants that in all areas accessible r • �® •Ms. Janet Johnson Brown October 1, 2004 Page 4 by the general public the signal strength will be at a level that is fully compli- ant with the FCC's general population/uncontrolled emissions rules. In other words, at any point access able by the general public around these projects, the radio frequency emissions are low enough that a member of the public could remain in a fixed location for any length of time and yet not be pre- sented with radio frequency emissions that exceed the FCC's national limits. Inasmuch as each controlled RF field is inaccessible to the general public, and there is no cumulative RF emissions impact from the operations of the pro- posed sites, I conclude that there is no need, nor is there a regulatory basis for the City to condition the proposed sites based on radio frequency emissions matters.

Janet Johnson Brown Assistant Planner City of Newport Beach (949) 644 -3236 - -- Original Message---- - From: Jonathan L.Kramer Sent: Friday, September 24, 2004 10:17 AM To: Brown; Janet • Subject: Re: FW: Cingular Towers Good morning, Janet: I frame my answer to your question having worked as a telecommunications engineer around the U.S. for the past nearly 30 years. The direct answer to your query is, yes, telecommunications facilities including cell antennas atop light standards may act as a lightning rod. Having stated that, however, there is no evidence that I can find that would remotely suggest that lightning rods cause lightning to strike in a particular area. Rather, if by chance lightning is to strike due to the underlying physics involved (due to charging of the atmosphere, the topography, etc.), the lightning will seek to connect sky and the earth via the lowest resistance (most conductive) path, and that path may well be via the grounded cell site antennas and mounts. Why might a cell site act as a lightning rod? The outside shields and mounting structure of a cell site antenna are grounded (it's a City-code requirement under Article 810 of the National Electrical Code). If the cell site antennas are mounted on a tower, the City's code would require that tower to be grounded, too. As such, in the event of a lightning strike in the area, it may be more likely to impact the cell site, and less likely to impact nearly residences. In Southern California I'm unaware of any structure near a cell site that sustained damage due to a • lightning strike at the cell site. 0 - Jonathan Original Message---- - From: RosslVAsso @aol.com [mailto:RosslVAsso @aol.com] • Sent: Monday, September 13, 2004 1:03 PM • To: jbrown @city.newport- beach.ca.us • Subject: Cingular Towers > Dear Ms. Brown, • The reason I am emailing you regarding the Cingular Tower request that • is scheduled to come before the council on September 28th is because I • will be out of state and will not be able to attend that meeting. • I spoke before the council at the first meeting regarding this subject • and asked two questions at that time. • The first was my concern about the obstruction of public views from • Sunset Park, and will this set a precedent for Hoag Hospital to • request an exception to their height limitation agreements with the • city? > The second question was about safety.

I am writing to you as a property owner, tax payer and as an owner of wireless stock, myself. I have been a property owner in Villa Balboa (VB) for over sixteen years. During that time I have been proud of the work both our Board of Directors and property management team have done to maintain a tranquil environment, instill and maintain a pride of ownership and to ensure that VB acts as a responsible citizen of Newport Beach and as a good neighbor to Hoag Hospital. As a part of being a responsible citizen and good neighbor, VB has worked diligently with Hoag and the City of Newport Beach to ensure that hospital expansion plans and the creation of a park and pedestrian walkway serve all involved without causing undo hardship to any particular parry. I, as a property owner, sincerely believed that after sixteen years that all conceivable "neighbor- related" tasks had been completed and that day -to -day living would continue uninterrupted. Now, sixteen years later, there is yet another issue at hand - an event one could characterize as an • assault. This time the issue is raised not by one of our neighbors or by our City representatives, but rather by a third party, one which neither governs the citizens of Newport Beach, provides recreational services to its citizens nor provides life- saving services to the community. Rather, this proposal has been set forth by a for - profit company who is not MY neighbor and does not provide public services to ME. Rather, this is a veiled attempt by a major corporation asking that the quality of life of those living in VB be adversely impacted in the name of profit. It is my understanding that the proposed wireless tower would be housed within a pole which would exceed City height limits and be lit at night. What better way is there to describe an eyesore? Merely hanging an American flag from the pole will not hide the fact that, if approved by the City of Newport Beach, this will be the beginning of an "antenna farm ". To say the least, I am offended by Cingular using patriotism as a means to achieve their goal. I am concerned as to what impact this and future antennae would have on the residents of VB. A few of the issues I believe adversely impact residents of VB are the excessive glare at night from flood lights which would illuminate the flag, noise from the flag during windy days and the possible near and long -term health - related issues caused by being located adjacent to the antenna. As a tax payer, I am greatly concerned by liability- related claims against the City of Newport Beach, and in turn its taxpayers, due to the fact that the antenna is located on city-owned property. Regardless of whether Cingular indemnifies the City of Newport Beach against future litigation by • third parties, the liability exists and, as a tax - paying property owner, the risk is too high. I believe that if the homeowners of VB, or for that fact ANY homeowner, had known that there was potential for a city park to becoban "antenna farm ", the creation oat park would have been opposed. conclusion, I am disclosing to you that I am a holder of AT &T Wireless stock, which is in the midst a merger with Cingular Wireless. As a result of the merger, I will soon own stock in Cingular ireless. The purpose of stating this fact is to impress upon you the sincerity of my e-mail. I, as a wireless stock holder, cannot with good conscious ask my neighbors or any other citizens of Newport Beach to sacrifice their quality of life for my personal financial gain. To that end, I am asking that, in spite of the potential for financial gain by the City of Newport Beach, please do not allow this or ANY wireless or antenna transmission towers, regardless of height, to be installed adjacent to VB. I thank you for your time and the good work and conscientious decisions you will make on behalf of the citizens of Newport Beach. Sincerely, Mark C.

Therefore, on behalf of my father, I am writing this email to stress his concerns regarding the building of the cell tower. Ever since we moved to Newport Beach, we have always cherished our lovely view and enjoyed it to its fullest. However, ever since the construction began by Hoag hospital, we have been denied our enjoyment. In all fairness however, it is the property of Hoag and they should be able to do what they please, as long as it is in accordance with all laws and regulations. Therefore, we dealt with all the construction for the past so many years. Now the issue of building a tower that will violate the zoning codes is a possibility that also threatens our enjoyment. Just as it is fair to allow the construction of Hoag because it did not violate any zoning codes, it should be just as fair to deny the building of the tower because it does violate the zoning code. Even with the past construction, my father's concerns were minimal because he knew and relied on the fact that there would be no construction that would be higher than the bluff. Therefore, it is the opinion of my father that this tower should NOT be allowed to be built in the proposed area. Not only would this proposed construction cause an enormous amount of burden to our personal enjoyment of our property, but would also cause an enormous financial burden as well. Wank you for your time. Sincerely, Jimmy Lee, on behalf of Dal K.

The proposal requires special review by City Council because the facility antennas are proposed to exceed the maximum height limit by 15 feet. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that City Council: 1) Approve Telecom Permit No. 2003 -255 subject to the Findings and Conditions of Approval attached to the staff report; and 2) Authorize the City Manager to execute the Telecommunications License Agreement. INTRODUCTION In October, 2002, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 2002 -24 pertaining to Wireless Telecommunication Facilities. The ordinance established regulations relative • to the height, location, size and design of proposed telecom facilities and the review process for facilities on both private and city-owned property. A copy of the ordinance is attached for your information. Sb0 West Coast Highway May 11, 2004 Page 2 The City Council adopted Council Policy L -23 "The Siting of Wireless is Telecommunications Equipment on City-Owned Land" on September, 24, 2002, for the purpose of describing the manner in which specific city-owned or city trust properties may be used as locations for wireless telecommunication devices that transmit voice or data. A copy of Council Policy L -23 is attached for your information. The applicant proposes to install a wireless telecommunication facility on city-owned property. The facility is designed as a 50 -foot flagpole with panel antennas concealed within the flagpole with the support equipment cabinets ground- mounted in a security enclosure. BACKGROUND This application is the first submitted for a telecom facility on city-owned property since the adoption of the ordinance, and it is the first application which requires special review by City Council. Special review by City Council is necessary when a telecom facility proposal includes one of the following: a) telecom antennas up to 15 feet above the maximum height limit, b) facilities that are a new false tree, a new "slim jim" monopole, a new standard monopole with attached antenna elements or a new lattice tower, or c) any application which the Planning Director determines requires special review to serve the public interest. The ordinance describes the review process of telecom applications • for facilities on city property in Section 15.70.070 C and special review by Council in Section 15.70.070 F. Specifically, if the Planning Director determines that the facility conforms to the technology, height, location and design standards of the ordinance, he or she shall approve the application with or without conditions of approval. Once approved, the application shall be forwarded to the City Manager, who shall prepare and execute a License Agreement based upon a term and rental amount adopted under City Council policy. When special review by City Council is required, as is the case with this application due to the requested height of the facility, the City Manager shall then forward the License Agreement and final telecom permit to City Council for final approval. The City Council may approve, approve subject to modifications, or deny the License Agreement and telecom permit. Should the City Council not approve the License Agreement for any reason, both the agreement and permit are invalid. Telecommunications Facility Permit Activity Currently, two other applications for telecom facilities on city -owned or city -held property have been submitted and are being reviewed by staff. One application submitted on behalf of Sprint PCS proposes the installation of a facility within a light standard located on the Back Bay Bridge near the southeast corner of Bay Shore Drive and West Coast • Highway. While located in the CalTrans' right -of -way, the light standard is city -owned and is therefore subject to the telecom permit process. This application is currently under review by the Planning Director and action on it is anticipated by May 7, 2004. u • *0 West Coast Highway May 11, 2004 Page 3 The second application, also submitted on behalf of Sprint PCS, proposes to co- locate at the same location for which this application is being reviewed with a second flagpole. The applicant was noted on April 23, 2004, that the application is incomplete and staff is awaiting submittal of the information requested. There have been four applications submitted for facilities on private property, three of which have been approved, and the fourth is currently being reviewed for completeness by staff. The first two sites were for the installation of new and replacement panel antennas and new equipment cabinets at existing facilities located at 260 Newport Center Drive and 3991 MacArthur Blvd. The third site provided for the co- location of a new, second telecom facility at 3140 East Coast Highway. The fourth application is for a new facility proposed to be located at 3748 East Coast Highway. Representatives on behalf of the various wireless communications carriers are in contact with staff on a regular basis. Sites that are currently being discussed for consideration for installation of telecom facilities include Oasis Senior Center, Grant Howald Park, Mariner's Park, Eastbluff Park & The Eastbluff Boys and Girls Club, Bonita Creek Park, Buffalo Hills Park, and the municipal parking lot located in the Balboa Village at the corner of Palm Street and Balboa Blvd. is DISCUSSION The applicant in this case desires to install a wireless telecommunication facility on city- owned property located at the comer of Superior Avenue and West Coast Highway. The proposed facility would exceed the maximum height limit of 35 feet for flagpoles in the 24/28 Height Limitation Zone by 15 feet as provided for in Chapter 15.70 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code. The proposed facility is designed as a 50 -foot flagpole with 3 panel antennas concealed within the flagpole. The subject property is located at the southeasterly corner of Superior Avenue and West Coast Highway, and is developed with a municipal parking lot referred to as the "Superior Lot." Surrounding land uses include the Hoag Hospital lower campus facilities immediately adjacent to the south, a retail commercial center directly across the street on the southeast corner of Balboa Blvd. and West Coast Highway and the Newport Crest and Villa Balboa residential developments to the north. Analysis In reviewing the application, staff evaluated the height, location, size and design of the proposed facility and its relationship to the surrounding environment. • The site consists of approximately 1.7 acres. The perimeter of the municipal parking lot is landscaped with grass areas and other low growing vegetation, and shade trees are planted within the lot. The flagpole is proposed to be located along the entry driveway into the municipal lot and the support equipment will be screened in a security enclosure structure adjacent to the flagpole 00 West Coast Highway May 11, 2004 Page 4 \� The flagpole is proposed to be 50 -feet in height and 24- inches in diameter. Three panel antennas will be concealed within the flagpole. The support equipment cabinets to house the 4 base transreceiver units will be hidden within a retaining block wall enclosure built into a sloping area, and will be screened with plantings to match the existing landscaping. The proposed facility as designed is compatible with the use of the site since flagpole monuments are commonly found near public parking lots and other municipal facilities, and the support equipment is screened to blend in with the existing topography and environment. The only concerns staff has are the width of the pole and maintenance of the facility and flag. Traditional flagpoles are much less massive, but the width of the pole cannot be changed and still accommodate the equipment required by the applicant. Staff has included conditions of approval related to proper lighting, maintenance of the flagpole and equipment enclosure, and replacement of the flag. Special Review by Council The site is located within the 24/28 Foot Height Limitation Zone. Section 20.65.070 of the Zoning Code (Exceptions to Height Limits) permits flagpoles in this height limitation district to be 35 feet maximum in height. Section 15.70.070 F (Special Review by Council) provides that the City Council may is approve antennas up to 15 feet above the maximum height limitations under the special review provision. Applications subject to special review may be approved by the City Council if it makes the following findings: a. The approval is necessary to allow the facility to function as intended and identified alternatives to the proposal are not feasible. The applicant states there are currently deficiencies in their coverage network within this portion of the City, and found this site to be at the center of the search ring. Prior to designing the proposed facility at this site, the applicant investigated alternative locations within close proximity to the intersection of Superior Avenue and West Coast Highway. Hoag Hospital was not interested in entering into an agreement for a telecom facility with the applicant. The retail commercial development across the street was determined not conducive for a roof - mounted facility because of the low single -story construction and the lower elevation of the site. Installation of a freestanding facility on the site was also rejected because it would displace required parking spaces. The residential condominium developments to the north are fully developed and adequate space does not exist that would accommodate a telecom facility. The applicant investigated installation of facilities on existing light standards in the right -of -way along Superior Avenue, but found that a 35- foot high facility would not provide adequate coverage and there was no room to accommodate the necessary equipment cabinets. The applicant also investigated lowering the height of the facility to 35 feet at this site, or • the feasibility of installing multiple facilities at 35 feet in height in the general vicinity. Based on the Radio Frequency maps prepared by the applicant, a 35 -foot high facility at • *0 West Coast Highway May 11, 2004 Page 5 the subject property would not provide adequate coverage in the area northwest, north and northeast of the subject property towards Aries Court in the Newport Crest condominium development and Halyard Lane located to the northwest just beyond Newport Crest. Installing multiple facilities at 35 feet in height near the intersection of Superior Avenue and West Coast Highway and farther up Superior Avenue near the Villa Balboa condominiums could cause overlap in coverage and lead to interference with each other as well as other existing sites in the area. Copies of the Radio Frequency maps are included with this report as Exhibit No. 6, which depict existing coverage without the proposed facility, coverage with a 35 -foot high facility on the subject property, and coverage with a 50 -foot high facility on the subject property. Due to the topography in this area and based on its investigation of alternative sites and lower height facilities, the applicant found that the facility must be designed at 50 feet in height at or near this intersection in order to meet its coverage objectives. A copy of the applicant's proposal is attached which identifies alternative sites and discusses issues which eliminated the feasibility of alternative sites and lower height facilities. b. The approved facility will not result in conditions which are materially detrimental to nearby property owners, residents, and businesses, or to public health or safety. • The applicant has designed the wireless telecommunications facility to be a freestanding 50 -foot high flagpole with 3 panel antennas concealed within the flagpole. While the diameter of the flagpole cannot be less than 24 inches and still accommodate the necessary coax cables, it is not considerably larger than the existing light standards located along Superior Avenue, which are approximately 15 inches at the base and taper to approximately 12 inches. The flagpole is not substantially different in design from the light standards and views in the area will not be significantly impacted by the placement of the flagpole on the subject property. The support equipment (four base transreceiver units) cabinets will be ground mounted within a retaining wall enclosure and will not be visible from the street level. The applicant has prepared photographic visual simulations from three different vantage points which depict existing and proposed conditions at the site. These visual simulations are attached as Exhibit No. 7 for your review. The design of the facility will not affect the aesthetics and use of the subject property as it will be unmanned and require maintenance only once every four to six weeks. The proposed facility will not generate noise, odor, smoke or other adverse impacts. Further, the proposed facility will comply with the applicable rules, regulations and standards of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) thus ensuring public health and safety. Based on the information provided by the applicant indicating the height of the facility is necessary to facilitate the proper functioning of the equipment, staff believes Council • can make the above two findings pursuant to Section 15.70.070 F (3) and approve the facility antennas to exceed the 35 -foot height limitation for flagpoles to a maximum height of 50 feet above existing grade. 00 West Coast Highway May 11, 2004 Page 6 Co- Location Requirements • In order to limit the adverse visual effects of a proliferation of telecom sites in the City, the Telecom Ordinance includes a provision that new telecom facilities proposed within 1,000 feet of an existing facility shall be required to co- locate on the same site as the existing facility, unless it is determined that such co-location is not feasible. In approving this telecom facility, the City Council may impose a condition of approval allowing the future co- location of telecom facilities by other carriers on this site. This requirement has been included as Condition No. 15 in the Conditions of Approval. Emergency Communications Review Recognizing the potential for interference with emergency communication devices, the ordinance sets forth requirements in Sections 15.70.070 C 2 and 15.70.070 D 2 for Emergency Communications Review by the Police Department. When a telecom permit is submitted to the Planning Department, the Plans, Map and Emission Standards and Non - Interference Data (parts 1, 3, and 5 of the Submission Requirements) are sent to the Police Department to review the plan's potential conflict with emergency communications. The Police Department coordinates with the Orange County Sheriff - Coroner Department, • ( "OCSD /Communications "), which oversees the countywide 800 MHz CCCS Public Safety Network. OCSD /Communications has made it well known that wireless telecommunications sites have the potential for interfering with our public safety radio transmission and reception capability. Since December of 1999 they have confirmed and documented numerous cases of interference. This issue is not unique to Orange County. It is a national issue that has been brought to the attention of the FCC and has yet to be resolved. Communications engineers have observed wireless communications interference out to a maximum radial distance of 1300 feet. With the cooperation of the wireless carrier, this distance has sometimes been reduced to less than 100 feet after mitigation measures have been applied. A typical wireless communications facility may only interfere with one or two channels of the respective multiple - channel trunking system. This adds a roulette nature to the interference symptoms. There are numerous wireless communications facilities in Orange County, including an estimated 150 sites each for Nextel, Verizon, and AT &T that operate in the 800 MHz band. The number of non -800 MHz cell sites is currently unknown. Not all of them are causing interference. The fundamental causes of wireless interference are the close proximity of cellular frequencies to Public Safety frequencies and the proliferation of suburban cellular facilities with short towers. • The County continues to work with the wireless carriers in an attempt to mitigate problems on not only a case -by -case basis, but on a countywide basis as well. OCSD 9 &0 West Coast Highway May 11, 2004 Page 7 • Communications has provided a list of conditions that the Police Department currently recommends for all development of new and /or the modification of existing wireless facilities. Staff has included these recommendations as Condition Nos. 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 and 22 in order to mitigate potential conflicts with emergency communications. Public Notification A notification describing the proposal and the date and time of the City Council review was mailed to property owners of record within 300 feet of the proposed location of the telecom facility a minimum of 10 days in advance of the Council review date. TELECOMMUNICATIONS LICENSE AGREEMENT Working with Cingular and other wireless telecom firms, the City Attorney's office is developing a Telecommunications License Agreement (TLA) that will authorize Cingular to use this location under certain conditions. The Agreement will describe the site rent, rent increases, the term (up to four 5 -year terms), bonding and insurance, co- location requirements, restrictions on transfers, and other obligations of Cingular and the City. The agreement will be distributed in the supplemental agenda packet on May 7 with a staff report describing its provisions. • ENCROACHMENT PERMIT The Cingular Wireless telecom facility site will also require an encroachment permit (N2004 -0145) issued by the Public Works Department to allow construction of the facility on public property. This will be issued only if the City Council approves the telecom permit and license agreement. Alternatives 1. The City Council can modify the design by lowering the height of the facility or by relocating the facility to a different location on the site which Council deems more appropriate. 2. The City Council can deny the subject permit and /or the license agreement, in which case both the agreement and permit shall not be executed. Prepared by: Submitted by: J et h son Brow Patricia L.

A -166 Costa Mesa, CA 92626 Office: (714) 557 -6052 Fax: (714) 557-6249 a� Proposal for a Cingular Wireless Telecommunications Facility SC- 084 -05: Superior Ave. & PCH Park and Ride APN: 424 - 041 -13 Project Description Cingular Wireless (CW) is proposing to develop a wireless telecommunications at the Park and Ride lot located at the corner of Superior Avenue and PCH. CW's facility will be designed as a 50' flagpole with three (3) panel antennas concealed within the flagpole. Four (4) Base Transreceiver Units (BTS) will be located south of the proposed flagpole within a retaining wall. The BTS units will not be seen from street level. This facility has been designed so that it will not affect the aesthetics, functionally and /or use of the existing property and will be compatible with the surrounding environment. Alternative locations/designs • Prior to designing a facility at the subject location CW investigated alternate locations within close proximity to the intersection of Superior Ave. and PCH°The proposed wireless facility had to be designed at or near this intersection in order to meet the target objectives. The facility also serves to off -load capacity of neighboring sites. Locating CW's wireless facility further from the intersection would result" in significant problems with insufficient signal strength. The selection of prospective sites are not determined only by technical aspects, rather the culmination of several factors such as; interested property owners, business terms, 24 -hour access, required technical specifications, applicable zones, design, aesthetics, and the ability to construct the proposed facility. Several factors present special circumstances at the subject site. The following properties were identified as potential candidates that addressed the minimal criteria and were rejected due to the issues stated below: Commerical Center, southeast corner of PCH /Superior- the limited heights of the one - storied buildings at the commercial property would not be conducive for a roof - mounted facility. The property has been fully developed and installing a freestanding facility would require sacrificing parking stalls for CW's facility. Condos, north of Park and Ride the properties consists of residential units that have • been fully developed. There's no adequate space for CW's facility. A facility at the property would not be compatible with the existing uses. Al Hoag Hospital, North side ofPCH- a roof - mounted facility was consider for the property. Hoag Hospital was not interested in CW's proposal. Park and Ride, northeast corner of PCH/Suoerior- A 50 ft. monopalm and monopine was considered at the subject property. It was determined that a flagpole would be a compatible with the property and the surrounding parcels. Colocation Potential The Radio Frequency Engineers at Cingular Wireless have surveyed the area and have determined it was necessary to locate their wireless telecommunications facility within close proximity to the intersection of PCH and Superior Avenue. There are no existing wireless telecommunications facilities found within the search ring that presented suitable co- location opportunities. Zoning Consistency & Justification The location, size, design, and operating characteristics of the proposed telecommunications facility will create no impact on circulation systems, generate no noise, odor or Moke. Furthermore, the facility will not create any adverse impacts that are detrimental or incompatible with other permitted uses in the vicinity. The proposed facility will be screened from all views. The equipment associated with the facility operates virtually noise -free, does not emit fumes, smoke, dust, or odors. The proposed facility will be in operation 24 hours per day, 7 days a week and will only require routine maintenance only every 4 to 6 weeks. The proposed telecommunications facility will not result in conditions or circumstances contrary to the public health, safety, and the general welfare. The facility will operate in full compliance with the regulations and licensing requirements of the FCC, FAA, and C.PUC as governed by the Telecommunications Act of 1996. Unlike other land uses, which can be spatially determined through the General Plan the location of wireless telecommunication facilities is based on technical requirements which include service area, geographical elevations, alignment with surrounding sites and customer demand components. Placement within the urban geography is dependent on these requirements. Consequently, wireless telecommunication facilities have been located adjacent to and within all major land use categories including residential, commercial, industrial, open space, etc. proving to be compatible in all locations. Wireless telecommunication networks enhance the general welfare of communities by providing a resilient communications system in the event of emergencies (earthquakes, fires, traffic accidents, etc.) whereas landline communications systems are often disrupted during and after a major incident. In addition, wireless telecommunication networks add an additional layer of communications infrastructure with little to no construction disruption to the community. • • • 41� Network Design The proposed communications facility will transmit at a frequency range of between 1850 MHz and 1990 MHz. A typical PCS facility operates at 200 watts. Depending on the unique characteristics of the site, the actual power requirements may vary. When operational, the radio signals from the site will consist of non- ionizing waves generated at less than 1 uW(cm2, which is significantly lower than the maximum allowable public exposure of 1,000 microwatts as set by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE). The distance between antenna sites will normally range from %: mile to 9 miles, depending on the population density, consumer usage, existing vertical elements, and the geographical terrain. In order to have a clear line -of -site; antennas must be mounted high enough to overcome challenges posed by local topography and development. Telephone calls can originate or be received from a wireless facility because antennas. share a fixed number of frequencies across the network grid. As the caller is traveling through the network the call is continuously being handed —off between wireless facilities to provide an uninterrupted telephone conversation. The following are some of the basic types of cell sites: Coverage sites serve to expand coverage in large areas or in areas with difficult terrain • and to enhance coverage for portable systems. Coverage sites allow users to make and maintain calls as they travel between cells. Capacity sites serve to increase the capacity when surrounding sites have reached their practical channel limits. As the years pass, the number or subscribers increases exponentially creating a strain on the existing network. In order to alleviate this strain, capacity sites are implemented into the systems network to accommodate the increase in customer demand. r� U VO April 26, 2004 Janet Johnson Brown Assistant Planner Newport Beach Planning Department 3300 Newport Beach Boulevard Newport Beach, CA. 92658 RE: Cingular Wireless Telecommunications Facility, TP2003 -003 (PA2003 -255) 4600 West Coast Hwy. Ms. Brown: Thank you for your comments from our meeting held on April 15, 2004 regarding the Cingular Wireless (CW) project referenced above. Please note the following responses to the items you requested: I. The approval is necessary to allow the facility to function as intended and identified alternatives to the proposal are not feasible. CW's search ring is located at the intersection of Pacific Coast Highway and Superior Avenue. There is currently a deficiency in CW's network within this portion of Newport Beach. It's necessary to install the facility at the subject location and at the proposed 50 ft. height to achieve the coverage objective. The 50 ft. height is necessary to overcome the obstructions of the area, which hinders signal propagation. A height lower than 50 ft. at the subject property will result in inadequate coverage within the area, and typically would require two or more facilities in the area to compensate for the loss . in coverage. Initially, CW had investigated installing their facility closer to Superior Avenue at the entrance of the Park and Ride. As directed by the Newport Beach Planning Department, CW relocated their facility to its current location. The monument area on the property adjacent to Pacific Coast Highway (PCH) was also looked at as a possible location for CW's facility. It was difficult to find adequate space for the ground mounted equipment cabinets to conceal from the surrounding properties. The current proposal incorporates the facility into the landscape area away from the Superior Avenue and PCH. CW also investigated install their facility on the existing 35 ft. light standards on the sidewalk along Superior Avenue. As demonstrated with the enclosed Radio Frequency (RF) maps, CW's facility at 35 ft. will not achieve the coverage objective. CW's RF engineer rejected the facility at 35 ft. 2 The approval of the facility will not result in conditions which are materially detrimental to nearby property owners, residents, and businesses, or to the public health or safety. Wireless telecommunication facilities have been located adjacent to and within all major land use categories including residential, commercial, industrial, open space, etc. proving to be compatible in all locations. The proposed facility will not detrimental to the character of development, as it will be un- staffed, having no impact on circulation systems. The proposed facility will only require maintenance once every 4 to 6 weeks. Furthermore, it will generate no noise, odor, smoke or any other adverse impacts to adjacent land uses. In addition, the proposed wireless telecommunications facility will operate in full compliance with all local, 150 Paulasino Avenue m Suite A -166 ® (osta Mesa, (A 91626 -3318 ® Phone: 114-551-6051 ® fax: 114-557-6Z49 ® www.sbasitmom • • is ;a 7 )u)l state and federal regulations including the Telecommunications Act of 1996. The antennas will be fully concealed within the flagpole. The facility has been designed to be compatible with surrounding uses. 3. The proposed 50 ft height is necessary to achieve the coverage objectives. Can additional facilities at the 35 ft. height limit achieve the same objectives as a single 50 f% facility? It's necessary to install CW's facility at the subject property, as it is located at the center of the search ring area. The 50 ft. height is necessary to overcome the obstructions of the area, and ultimately achieving the coverage objectives. The enclosed Radio Frequency (RF) map shows the target objective for the facility at 50'. The RF map with the site at 35' shows deficiencies in coverage in the area northwest, north, and northeast of the subject property towards Aries Court and Halyard Lane. Typically, installing CW's facility for a search ring lower than its target height requires the installation of two or more facilities in the area. CW's search rings and their candidates are strategically chosen to take into account distance and height to ensure that there is no overlap in coverage and signal interference with the neighboring facilities. Additional facilities, at a lower height, may cause interference with each other and sites CM -057 -01, CM- 050 -01, and CM- 295 -01, as shown in the coverage maps. One facility at the subject property and the 50' height for this proposal have been chosen to provide the target objective and to ensure that no • interference is caused with the existing CW sites in the surrounding area. 4. Will the existing 35 ft. light standards along Superior Avenue achieve CW's coverage objectives? • The enclosed RF coverage map simulating coverage at 35' shows that a facility at that height on the subject property would not provide the objectives needed for this search ring. The light standards adjacent to the Villa Balboa condominiums are at a higher elevation than the Park and Ride. However, a facility in this location may cause interference with CM- 295 -01 and CM- 050 -01. The coverage may overlap and cause interference when two wireless sites are too close to each other. In addition, there's no space in this area to accommodate for the equipment cabinets. I hope the information above allows you to consider CW's project to proceed with the next step in the development process. I will be happy to provide additional materials if required.

The Cingular Wireless Company has proposed to place a cellular tower (referred to on their plans as a flagpole) on the southerly slope of the Park- and -Ride lot property. I talked to Gil Gonzalez of Cingular, 714- 797 -5760, regarding the base ground elevation for the cellular tower. He referred me to their survey firm of Burk Hayes & Assoc., 714 - 557 -1567, Project Reference No. SCO- 84 -05. I talked to Michael of that firm and he said the base ground elevation is proposed to be elevation 36 above Mean Sea Level. The proposed cellular tower 50' in height and 24" in diameter would be placed on a structural foundation 7'-4" above ground. The base elevation of this foundation appears on their plans to be about elevation 27 (the elevation of the Park -and -Ride lot near the proposed tower). The top of the cellular tower and its associated enormous national or city flag proposed would be at elevation 84 above Mean Sea Level. The elevation of the bike path along Sunset View Park ranges from about elevation 45 at the easterly end near the hospital to exactly elevation 71.8 above Mean Sea Level near Superior Avenue. On the seaward side of the Sunset View Park walkway there is no structure, tree, cellular tower or any other thing higher than elevation 72 as far as I can determine by viewing from the top of the walkway (other than the gateway into the park and Hoag's temporary construction fence). The Hoag Hospital developments on lower campus have been restricted to elevations a couple of feet lower than the bluff that existed along the lower campus area so as to not restrict views from the walkway along what is now the Sunset View Park. The edge of that bluff near Superior Avenue extends up to elevation 74 above Mean Sea Level near Superior Avenue. Height restrictions limit development by Hoag Hospital in that area to less than elevation 72. The proposed top ole the cellular tower and the flag extend 12 feet above that restriction and would appear as an eyesore to all viewing the city, Catalina Island, Pacific Ocean and the sunset from the Sunset View Park walkway. It would appear to be something sticking up out of nowhere. Please enter this as a request from Villa Balboa Community Association and from me personally to limit the height of the top of any cellular tower pole near Superior Avenue to no greater than elevation 72 above Mean Sea Level. The further easterly it may be proposed should be lower as is the height limitation requirement for Hoag Hospital improvements. The elevation of the walkway along Sunset View Park should be utilized as a guide for any such improvements. Thank you for your and the City Council consideration, Frank Jenes 200 Paris Lane, No. 113 Newport Beach, CA 92663 949 - 548-6180 • 10 s • Brown, Janet • From: RosslVAsso @aol.com Sent: Sunday, April 11, 20046:27 PM To: jbrown @city.newport- beach.ca.us Subject: Telecom.

Janet Brown indicated today that it will be removed from the agenda tonight and the public hearing on this will be held two weeks later on 27 April 2004. She said that any email to her on this subject would be part of the packet to the City Council on this hearing subject and would qualify for any future court action, if needed. She showed me two graphical representations (insert into photos) showing what Cingular suggests their cellular tower (they call it a "flagpole ") would look like. I showed her that the car in the.photo was about 5' or 6' high and if multiplied 10 times would be much higher than the pole /tower showed by Cingular. I'll send you some graphics later. She said she will try to have Cingular depict the visual appearance of the pole /tower from the Sunset View Park walkway as Hoag Hospital had to do with their proposed improvement plan. I asked her what the City regulations were relative to such construction. She said the height limit for this zone would t• 24 feet, however there is an exception for flag poles for which 35 foot limit is allowed. (So I wonder why they call it a flag pole ?) Cingular is not only proposing to define it as a flagpole, by putting a flag on top, but want to have the height limit increased to 50 feet, plus the 7 foot height of the base for a total of 57 feet. Janet indicated that Cingular advised her that such a "flag pole' is installed at the Jamboree and MacArthur in the City of Irvine. I went to that location and took some photos. It is 18 inches in diameter and looks quite out of place. The cell tower proposed by Cingular is 24 inches, 33% greater in diameter.

The proposal requires special review by City Council because the facility antennas are proposed to exceed the maximum height limit by 15 feet. RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that City Council: 1) Approve Telecom Permit No. 2003 -255 subject to the Findings and Conditions of Approval attached to the staff report; and 2) Authorize the City Manager to execute the Telecommunications License Agreement. INTRODUCTION In October, 2002, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 2002 -24 pertaining to Wireless Telecommunication Facilities. The ordinance established regulations relative to the height, location, size and design of proposed telecom facilities and the review process for facilities on both private and city -owned property. A copy of the ordinance is attached for your information. ! 00 West Coast Highway May 11, 2004 Page 2 The City Council adopted Council Policy L -23 "The Siting of Wireless Telecommunications Equipment on City -Owned Land" on September, 24, 2002, for the purpose of describing the manner in which specific city -owned or city trust properties may be used as locations for wireless telecommunication devices that transmit voice or data. A copy of Council Policy L -23 is attached for your information. The applicant proposes to install a wireless telecommunication facility on city -owned property. The facility is designed as a 50 -foot flagpole with panel antennas concealed within the flagpole with the support equipment cabinets ground- mounted in a security enclosure. BACKGROUND This application is the first submitted for a telecom facility on city -owned property since the adoption of the ordinance, and it is the first application which requires special review by City Council. Special review by City Council is necessary when a telecom facility proposal includes one of the following: a) telecom antennas up to 15 feet above the maximum height limit, b) facilities that are a new false tree, a new "slim jim" monopole, a new standard monopole with attached antenna elements or a new lattice tower, or c) any application which the Planning Director determines requires special review to serve the public interest. The ordinance describes the review process of telecom applications for facilities on city property in Section 15.70.070 C and special review by Council in Section 15.70.070 F. Specifically, if the Planning Director determines that the facility conforms to the technology, height, location and design standards of the ordinance, he or she shall approve the application with or without conditions of approval. Once approved, the application shall be forwarded to the City Manager, who shall prepare and execute a License Agreement based upon a term and rental amount adopted under City Council policy. When special review by City Council is required, as is the case with this application due to the requested height of the facility, the City Manager shall then forward the License Agreement and final telecom permit to City Council for final approval. The City Council may approve, approve subject to modifications, or deny the License Agreement and telecom permit. Should the City Council not approve the License Agreement for any reason, both the agreement and permit are invalid. Telecommunications Facility Permit Activity Currently, two other applications for telecom facilities on city -owned or city-held property have been submitted and are being reviewed by staff. One application submitted on behalf of Sprint PCS proposes the installation of a facility within a light standard located on the Back Bay Bridge near the southeast corner of Bay Shore Drive and West Coast Highway. While located in the CalTrans' right -of -way, the light standard is city -owned and is therefore subject to the telecom permit process. This application is currently under review by the Planning Director and action on it is anticipated by May 7, 2004. • WO West Coast Highway May 11, 2004 Page 3 The second application, also submitted on behalf of Sprint PCS, proposes to co- locate at the same location for which this application is being reviewed with a second flagpole. The applicant was notified on April 23, 2004, that the application is incomplete and staff is awaiting submittal of the information requested. There have been four applications submitted for facilities on private property, three of which have been approved, and the fourth is currently being reviewed for completeness by staff. The first two sites were for the installation of new and replacement panel antennas and new equipment cabinets at existing facilities located at 260 Newport Center Drive and 3991 MacArthur Blvd. The third site provided for the co- location of a new, second telecom facility at 3140 East Coast Highway. The fourth application is for a new facility proposed to be located at 3748 East Coast Highway. Representatives on behalf of the various wireless communications carriers are in contact with staff on a regular basis. Sites that are currently being discussed for consideration for installation of telecom facilities include Oasis Senior Center, Grant Howald Park, Mariner's Park, Eastbluff Park & The Eastbluff Boys and Girls Club, Bonita Creek Park, Buffalo Hills Park, and the municipal parking lot located in the Balboa Village at the corner of Palm Street and Balboa Blvd. DISCUSSION The applicant in this case desires to install a wireless telecommunication facility on city- owned property located at the corner of Superior Avenue and West Coast Highway. The proposed facility would exceed the maximum height limit of 35 feet for flagpoles in the 24/28 Height Limitation Zone by 15 feet as provided for in Chapter 15.70 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code. The proposed facility is designed as a 50 -foot flagpole with 3 panel antennas concealed within the flagpole. The subject property is located at the southeasterly comer of Superior Avenue and West Coast Highway, and is developed with a municipal parking lot referred to as the "Superior Lot." Surrounding land uses include the Hoag Hospital lower campus facilities immediately adjacent to the south, a retail commercial center directly across the street on the southeast corner of Balboa Blvd. and West Coast Highway and the Newport Crest and Villa Balboa residential developments to the north. Analysis In reviewing the application, staff evaluated the height, location, size and design of the proposed facility and its relationship to the surrounding environment. The site consists of approximately 1.7 acres. The perimeter of the municipal parking lot is landscaped with grass areas and other low growing vegetation, and shade trees are planted within the lot. The flagpole is proposed to be located along the entry driveway into the municipal lot and the support equipment will be screened in a security enclosure structure adjacent to the flagpole 00 West Coast Highway May 11, 2004 Page 4 The flagpole is proposed to be 50 -feet in height and 24- inches in diameter. Three panel antennas will be concealed within the flagpole. The support equipment cabinets to house the 4 base transreceiver units will be hidden within a retaining block wall enclosure built into a sloping area, and will be screened with plantings to match the existing landscaping. The proposed facility as designed is compatible with the use of the site since flagpole monuments are commonly found near public parking lots and other municipal facilities, and the support equipment is screened to blend in with the existing topography and environment. The only concerns staff has are the width of the pole and maintenance of the facility and flag. Traditional flagpoles are much less massive, but the width of the pole cannot be changed and still accommodate the equipment required by the applicant. Staff has included conditions of approval related to proper lighting, maintenance of the flagpole and equipment enclosure, and replacement of the flag. Special Review by Council The site is located within the 24/28 Foot Height Limitation Zone. Section 20.65.070 of the Zoning Code (Exceptions to Height Limits) permits flagpoles in this height limitation district to be 35 feet maximum in height. Section 15.70.070 F (Special Review by Council) provides that the City Council may approve antennas up to 15 feet above the maximum height limitations under the special review provision. Applications subject to special review may be approved by the City Council if it makes the following findings: a. The approval is necessary to allow the facility to function as intended and identified alternatives to the proposal are not feasible. The applicant states there are currently deficiencies in their coverage network within this portion of the City, and found this site to be at the center of the search ring. Prior to designing the proposed facility at this site, the applicant investigated alternative locations within close proximity to the intersection of Superior Avenue and West Coast Highway. Hoag Hospital was not interested in entering into an agreement for a telecom facility with the applicant. The retail commercial development across the street was determined not conducive for a roof- mounted facility because of the low single -story construction and the lower elevation of the site. Installation of a freestanding facility on the site was also rejected because it would displace required parking spaces. The residential condominium developments to the north are fully developed and adequate space does not exist that would accommodate a telecom facility. The applicant investigated installation of facilities on existing light standards in the right -of -way along Superior Avenue, but found that a 35- foot high facility would not provide adequate coverage and there was no room to accommodate the necessary equipment cabinets. The applicant also investigated lowering the height of the facility to 35 feet at this site, or the feasibility of installing multiple facilities at 35 feet in height in the general vicinity. Based on the Radio Frequency maps prepared by the applicant, a 35 -foot high facility at . 00 West Coast Highway May 11, 2004 Page 5 the subject property would not provide adequate coverage in the area northwest, north and northeast of the subject property towards Aries Court in the Newport Crest condominium development and Halyard Lane located to the northwest just beyond Newport Crest. Installing multiple facilities at 35 feet in height near the intersection of Superior Avenue and West Coast Highway and farther up Superior Avenue near the Villa Balboa condominiums could cause overlap in coverage and lead to interference with each other as well as other existing sites in the area. Copies of the Radio Frequency maps are included with this report as Exhibit No. 6, which depict existing coverage without the proposed facility, coverage with a 35 -foot high facility on the subject property, and coverage with a 50 -foot high facility on the subject property. Due to the topography in this area and based on its investigation of alternative sites and lower height facilities, the applicant found that the facility must be designed at 50 feet in height at or near this intersection in order to meet its coverage objectives. A copy of the applicant's proposal is attached which identifies alternative sites and discusses issues which eliminated the feasibility of alternative sites and lower height facilities. b. The approved facility will not result in conditions which are materially detrimental to nearby property owners, residents, and businesses, or to public health or safety. The applicant has designed the wireless telecommunications facility to be a freestanding 50 -foot high flagpole with 3 panel antennas concealed within the flagpole. While the diameter of the flagpole cannot be less than 24 inches and still accommodate the necessary coax cables, it is not considerably larger than the existing light standards located along Superior Avenue, which are approximately 15 inches at the base and taper to approximately 12 inches. The flagpole is not substantially different in design from the light standards and views in the area will not be significantly impacted by the placement of the flagpole on the subject property. The support equipment (four base transreceiver units) cabinets will be ground mounted within a retaining wall enclosure and will not be visible from the street level. The applicant has prepared photographic visual simulations from three different vantage points which depict existing and proposed conditions at the site. These visual simulations are attached as Exhibit No. 7 for your review. The design of the facility will not affect the aesthetics and use of the subject property as it will be unmanned and require maintenance only once every four to six weeks. The proposed facility will not generate noise, odor, smoke or other adverse impacts. Further, the proposed facility will comply with the applicable rules, regulations and standards of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) thus ensuring public health and safety. Based on the information provided by the applicant indicating the height of the facility is necessary to facilitate the proper functioning of the equipment, staff believes Council can make the above two findings pursuant to Section 15.70.070 F (3) and approve the facility antennas to exceed the 35 -foot height limitation for flagpoles to a maximum height of 50 feet above existing grade. a 00 West Coast Highway May 11, 2004 Page 6 Co- Location Requirements In order to limit the adverse visual effects of a proliferation of telecom sites in the City, the Telecom Ordinance includes a provision that new telecom facilities proposed within 1,000 feet of an existing facility shall be required to co- locate on the same site as the existing facility, unless it is determined that such co- location is not feasible. In approving this telecom facility, the City Council may impose a condition of approval allowing the future co- location of telecom facilities by other carriers on this site. This requirement has been included as Condition No. 15 in the Conditions of Approval. Emergency Communications Review Recognizing the potential for interference with emergency communication devices, the ordinance sets forth requirements in Sections 15.70.070 C 2 and 15.70.070 D 2 for Emergency Communications Review by the Police Department. When a telecom permit is submitted to the Planning Department, the Plans, Map and Emission Standards and Non - Interference Data (parts 1, 3, and 5 of the Submission Requirements) are sent to the Police Department to review the plan's potential conflict with emergency communications. The Police Department coordinates with the Orange County Sheriff - Coroner Department, ( "OCSD /Communications "), which oversees the countywide 800 MHz CCCS Public Safety Network. OCSD /Communications has made it well known that wireless telecommunications sites have the potential for interfering with our public safety radio transmission and reception capability. Since December of 1999 they have confirmed and documented numerous cases of interference. This issue is not unique to Orange County. It is a national issue that has been brought to the attention of the FCC and has yet to be resolved. Communications engineers have observed wireless communications interference out to a maximum radial distance of 1300 feet. With the cooperation of the wireless carrier, this distance has sometimes been reduced to less than 100 feet after mitigation measures have been applied. A typical wireless communications facility may only interfere with one or two channels of the respective multiple - channel trunking system. This adds a roulette nature to the interference symptoms. There are numerous wireless communications facilities in Orange County, including an estimated 150 sites each for Nextel, Verizon, and AT &T that operate in the 800 MHz band. The number of non -800 MHz cell sites is currently unknown. Not all of them are causing interference. The fundamental causes of wireless interference are the close proximity of cellular frequencies to Public Safety frequencies and the proliferation of suburban cellular facilities with short towers. The County continues to work with the wireless carriers in an attempt to mitigate problems on not only a case -by -case basis, but on a countywide basis as well. OCSD i 000 West Coast Highway May 11, 2004 Page 7 Communications has provided a list of conditions that the Police Department currently recommends for all development of new and /or the modification of existing wireless facilities. Staff has included these recommendations as Condition Nos. 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21 and 22 in order to mitigate potential conflicts with emergency communications. Public Notification A notification describing the proposal and the date and time of the City Council review was mailed to property owners of record within 300 feet of the proposed location of the telecom facility a minimum of 10 days in advance of the Council review date. TELECOMMUNICATIONS LICENSE AGREEMENT Working with Cingular and other wireless telecom firms, the City Attorney's office is developing a Telecommunications License Agreement (TLA) that will authorize Cingular to use this location under certain conditions. The Agreement will describe the site rent, rent increases, the term (up to four 5 -year terms), bonding and insurance, co- location requirements, restrictions on transfers, and other obligations of Cingular and the City. The agreement will be distributed in the supplemental agenda packet on May 7 with a staff report describing its provisions. ENCROACHMENT PERMIT The Cingular Wireless telecom facility site will also require an encroachment permit (N2004 -0145) issued by the Public Works Department to allow construction of the facility on public property. This will be issued only if the City Council approves the telecom permit and license agreement. Alternatives 1. The City Council can modify the design by lowering the height of the facility or by relocating the facility to a different location on the site which Council deems more appropriate. 2. The City Council can deny the subject permit and /or the license agreement, in which case both the agreement and permit shall not be executed.

This condition does not relieve such a future co- locator from obtaining a telecom permit. 14 Telecommunications FacilPermit No. 2003 -003 Findings and Conditions of Approval Page 4 16. Prior to the issuance of any permits to install the facility, the 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. The applicant recognizes that the frequencies used by the cellular facility located at 4600 West Coast Highway are extremely close to the frequencies used by the City of Newport Beach 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, Inc. (APCO), and as endorsed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). 17. The applicant shall not prevent the City of Newport Beach from having adequate spectrum capacity on the City's 800 MHz radio frequencies at any time. 18. The facility shall transmit at a frequency range of between 1850 MHz and 1990 MHz. Any change or alteration to the frequency range shall require the prior review and approval of the Planning Director. 19. Prior to activation its facility, the applicant shall 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's 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. 20. The applicant shall provide the City with a telephone number that shall be monitored 24 hours per day to which interference problems may be reported. 15 eTelecommunications Facility Permit No. 2003 -003 Findings and Conditions of Approval Page 5 21.

Representative: SBA Network Services, Inc. — Gil Gonzalez, Zoning Consultant PCS: 714 - 797 -5760 Email: ggonzalez@sbasite.com 150 Paularino Avenue, Ste. A -166 Costa Mesa, CA 92626 Office: (714) 557-6052 Fax: (714) 557-6249 a� Proposal for Cingular Wireless Telecommunications Facility SC- 084 -05: Superior Ave. & PCH Park and Ride APN: 424 - 041 -13 Project Description Cingular Wireless (CW) is proposing to develop a wireless telecommunications at the Park and Ride lot located at the corner of Superior Avenue and PCH. CW's facility will be designed as a 50' flagpole with three (3) panel antennas concealed within the flagpole. Four (4) Base Transreceiver Units (BTS) will be located south of the proposed flagpole within a retaining wall. The BTS units will not be seen from street level. This facility has been designed so that it will not affect the aesthetics, functionally and /or use of the existing property and will be compatible with the surrounding environment. Alternative locations/designs Prior to designing a facility at the subject location CW investigated alternate locations within close proximity to the intersection of Superior Ave. and PCH'.`'The proposed wireless facility had to be designed at or near this intersection in order to meet the target objectives. The facility also serves to off -load capacity of neighboring sites. Locating CW's wireless facility further from the intersection would result'in significant problems with insufficient signal strength. The selection of prospective sites are not determined only by technical aspects, rather the culmination of several factors such as; interested property owners, business terms, 24 -hour access, required technical specifications, applicable zones, design, aesthetics, and the ability to construct the proposed facility. Several factors present special circumstances at the subject site. The following properties were identified as potential candidates that addressed the minimal criteria and were rejected due to the issues stated below: Commerical Center, southeast corner of PCH / Superior- the limited heights of the one- storied buildings at the commercial property would not be conducive for a roof - mounted facility. The property has been fully developed and installing a freestanding facility would require sacrificing parking stalls for CW's facility. Condos north of Park and Ride the properties consists of residential units that have been fully developed. There's no adequate space for CW's facility. A facility at the property would not be compatible with the existing uses. Al Hoag Hospital. North side of PCH- a roof - mounted facility was consider for the property. Hoag Hospital was not interested in CW's proposal. Park and Ride, northeast corner of PCH /Superior- A 50 ft. monopalm and monopine was considered at the subject property. It was determined that a flagpole would be a compatible with the property and the surrounding parcels. Co location Potential The Radio Frequency Engineers at Cingular Wireless have surveyed the area and have determined it was necessary to locate their wireless telecommunications facility within close proximity to the intersection of PCH and Superior Avenue. There are no existing wireless telecommunications facilities found within the search ring that presented suitable co- location opportunities. Zoning Consistency & Justification The location, size, design, and operating characteristics of the proposed telecommunications facility will create no impact on circulation systems, generate no noise, odor or Ohoke. Furthermore, the facility will not create any adverse impacts that are detrimental or incompatible with other permitted uses in the vicinity. The proposed facility will be screened from all views. The equipment associated with the facility operates virtually noise -free, does not emit fumes, smoke, dust, or odors. The proposed facility will be in operation 24 hours per day, 7 days a week and will only require routine maintenance only every 4 to 6 weeks. The proposed telecommunications facility will not result in conditions or circumstances contrary to the public health, safety, and the general welfare. The facility will operate in full compliance with the regulations and licensing requirements of the FCC, FAA, and CPUC as governed by the Telecommunications Act of 1996. Unlike other land uses, which can be spatially determined through the General Plan the location of wireless telecommunication facilities is based on technical requirements which include service area, geographical elevations, alignment with surrounding sites and customer demand components. Placement within the urban geography is dependent on these requirements. Consequently, wireless telecommunication facilities have been located adjacent to and within all major land use categories including residential, commercial, industrial, open space, etc. proving to be compatible in all locations. Wireless telecommunication networks enhance the general welfare of communities by providing a resilient communications system in the event of emergencies (earthquakes, fires, traffic accidents, etc.) whereas landline communications systems are often disrupted during and after a major incident. In addition, wireless telecommunication networks add an additional layer of communications infrastructure with little to no construction disruption to the community. 41� M)W) Network Design The proposed communications facility will transmit at a frequency range of between 1850 MHz and 1990 MHz. A typical PCS facility operates at 200 watts. Depending on the unique characteristics of the site, the actual power requirements may vary, When operational, the radio signals from the site will consist of non - ionizing waves generated at less than 1 uWlcm2, which is significantly lower than the maximum allowable public exposure of 1,000 microwatts as set by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE). The distance between antenna sites will normally range from '/s mile to 9 miles, depending on the population density, consumer usage, existing vertical elements, and the geographical terrain. In order to have a clear line -of -site; antennas must be mounted high enough to overcome challenges posed by local topography and development. Telephone calls can originate or be received from a wireless facility because antennas share a fixed number of frequencies across the network grid. As the caller is traveling through the network the call is continuously being handed —off between wireless facilities to provide an uninterrupted telephone conversation. The following are some of the basic types of cell sites: Coverage sites serve to expand coverage in large areas or in areas with difficult terrain and to enhance coverage for portable systems. Coverage sites allow users to make and maintain calls as they travel between cells. Capacity sites serve to increase the capacity when surrounding sites have reached their practical channel limits. As the years pass, the number or subscribers increases exponentially creating a strain on the existing network. in order to alleviate this strain, capacity sites are implemented into the systems network to accommodate the increase in customer demand. Aq i FEM7A 7))))7) 11 April 26, 2004 Janet Johnson Brown Assistant Planner Newport Beach Planning Department 3300 Newport Beach Boulevard Newport Beach, CA. 92658 RE. Cingular Wireless Telecommunications Facility, TP2003 -003 (PA2003 -255) 4600 West Coast Hwy. Ms. Brown: Thank you for your comments from our meeting held on April 15, 2004 regarding the Cingular Wireless (CW) project referenced above. Please note the following responses to the items you requested: 1. The approval is necessary to allow the facility to function as intended and identified alternatives to the proposal are not feasible. CW's search ring is located at the intersection of Pacific Coast Highway and Superior Avenue. There is currently a deficiency in CW's network within this portion of Newport Beach. It's necessary to install the facility at the subject location and at the proposed 50 ft. height to achieve the coverage objective. The 50 ft. height is necessary to overcome the obstructions of the area, which hinders signal propagation. A height lower than 50 ft. at the subject property will result in inadequate coverage within the area, and typically would require two or more facilities in the area to compensate for the loss in coverage. Initially, CW had investigated installing their facility closer to Superior Avenue at the entrance of the Park and Ride. As directed by the Newport Beach Planning Department, CW relocated their facility to its current location. The monument area on the property adjacent to Pacific Coast Highway (PCH) was also looked at as a possible location for CW's facility. It was difficult to find adequate space for the ground mounted equipment cabinets to conceal from the surrounding properties. The current proposal incorporates the facility into the landscape area away from the Superior Avenue and PCH. CW also investigated install their facility on the existing 35 ft. light standards on the sidewalk along Superior Avenue. As demonstrated with the enclosed Radio Frequency (RF) maps, CW's facility at 35 ft. will not achieve the coverage objective. CW's RF engineer rejected the facility at 35 ft. 2. The approval of the facility will not result in conditions which are materially detrimental to nearby property owners, residents, and businesses, or to the public health or safety. Wireless telecommunication facilities have been located adjacent to and within all major land use categories including residential, commercial, industrial, open space, etc. proving to be compatible in all locations. The proposed facility will not detrimental to the character of development, as it will be un- staffed, having no impact on circulation systems. The proposed facility will only require maintenance once every 4 to 6 weeks. Furthermore, it will generate no noise, odor, smoke or any other adverse impacts to adjacent land uses. In addition, the proposed wireless telecommunications facility will operate in full compliance with all local, ,,I) 150 Paulasino Avenue ems Suite W66 ® (osta Mesa, (A 92626 -3318 ® Phone: 114-551-6052 ® Fax: 714- 551.6249 am www.sbasite.com 9 state and federal regulations including the Telecommunications Act of 1996. The antennas will be fully concealed within the flagpole. The facility has been designed to be compatible with surrounding uses. 3. The proposed 50 ft height is necessary to achieve the coverage objectives. Can additional facilities at the 35 ft height limit achieve the same objectives as a single 50 ft facility? It's necessary to install CW's facility at the subject property, as it is located at the center of the search ring area. The 50 ft. height is necessary to overcome the obstructions of the area, and ultimately achieving the coverage objectives. The enclosed Radio Frequency (RF) map shows the target objective for the facility at 50'. The RF map with the site at 35' shows deficiencies in coverage in the area northwest, north, and northeast of the subject property towards Aries Court and Halyard Lane. Typically, installing CW's facility for a search ring lower than its target height requires the installation of two or more facilities in the area. CW's search rings and their candidates are strategically chosen to take into account distance and height to ensure that there is no overlap in coverage and signal interference with the neighboring facilities. Additional facilities, at a lower height, may cause interference with each other and sites CM- 057 -01, CM- 050 -01, and CM- 295 -01, as shown in the coverage maps. One facility at the subject property and the 50' height for this proposal have been chosen to provide the target objective and to ensure that no interference is caused with the existing CW sites in the surrounding area. 4. Will the existing 35 ft light standards along Superior Avenue achieve CW's coverage objectives? The enclosed RF coverage map simulating coverage at 35' shows that a facility at that height on the subject property would not provide the objectives needed for this search ring. The light standards adjacent to the Villa Balboa condominiums are at a higher elevation than the Park and Ride. However, a facility in this location may cause interference with CM- 295 -01 and CM- 050 -01. The coverage may overlap and cause interference when two wireless sites are too close to each other. In addition, there's no space in this area to accommodate for the equipment cabinets. I hope the information above allows you to consider CW's project to proceed with the next step in the development process. I will be happy to provide additional materials if required.

The Cingular Wireless Company has proposed to place 'a cellular tower (referred to on their plans as a flagpole) on the southerly slope of the Park - and -Ride lot property. I talked to Gil Gonzalez of Cingular, 714 - 797 -5760, regarding the base ground elevation for the cellular tower. He referred me to their survey firm of Burk Hayes & Assoc., 714 - 557 -1567, Project Reference No. SCO- 84 -05. I talked to Michael of that firm and he said the base ground elevation is proposed to be elevation 36 above Mean Sea Level. The proposed cellular tower 50' in height and 24" in diameter would be placed on a structural foundation 7'-4" above ground. The base elevation of this foundation appears on their plans to be about elevation 27 (the elevation of the Park -and -Ride lot near the proposed tower). The top of the cellular tower and its associated enormous national or city flag proposed would be at elevation 84 above Mean Sea Level. The elevation of the bike path along Sunset View Park ranges from about elevation 45 at the easterly end near the hospital to exactly elevation 71.8 above Mean Sea Level near Superior Avenue. On the seaward side of the Sunset View Park walkway there is no structure, tree, cellular tower or any other thing higher than elevation 72 as far as I can determine by viewing from the top of the walkway (other than the gateway into the park and Hoag's temporary construction fence). The Hoag Hospital developments on lower campus have been restricted to elevations a couple of feet lower than the bluff that existed along the lower campus area so as to not restrict views from the walkway along what is now the Sunset View Park. The edge of that bluff near Superior Avenue extends up to elevation 74 above Mean Sea Level near Superior Avenue. Height restrictions limit development by Hoag Hospital in that area to less than elevation 72. The proposed top of the cellular tower and the flag extend 12 feet above that restriction and would appear as an eyesore to all viewing the city, Catalina Island, Pacific Ocean and the sunset from the Sunset View Park walkway. It would appear to be something sticking up out of nowhere. Please enter this as a request from Villa Balboa Community Association and from me personally to limit the height of the top of any cellular tower pole near Superior Avenue to no greater than elevation 72 above Mean Sea Level. The further easterly it may be proposed should be lower as is the height limitation requirement for Hoag Hospital improvements. The elevation of the walkway along Sunset View Park should be utilized as a guide for any such improvements. Thank you for your and the City Council consideration, Frank Jenes 200 Paris Lane, No. 113 Newport Beach, CA 92663 949 - 548 -6180 Page 1 of I Brown, Janet From: RosslVAsso @aol.com Sent: Sunday, April 11, 2004 6:27 PM To: jbrown@city.newport- beach.ca.us Subject: Telecom. Facility Permit No. 2003 -003 My name is Ross Ribaudo,I reside at 260 Cagney Lane No. 320 I have lived in Villa Balboa for 21 years. I have two questions regarding this permit. 1 ... Will the tower have any direct affect on the public views from Sunset View Park,and will the exemption inspire our neighbor Hoag Hospital to appeal their current height limitations 2 ... Saftey .... Is it safe to build a tower which will no doubt be construted in metal ,on a known field of methane gas ,close to a power generating plant that will use natural as its fuel? Could the tower act as a lightning rod? I am going to attend the meeting tuesday evening, hopefully these questions will be answered at that time. 04/12/2004 I1 Brown, Janet To: Frank Jenes Subject: RE: Change in meeting date - Cingular Wireless Telecommunications Facility Permit No. 2003- 003(PA2003 -255) - - - -- Original Message---- - From: Frank Jenes [mailto:frankienes@adelohia net] Sent: Monday, April 12, 2004 4:06 PM To: Carolyn Bennett- Ouellet; Phil Bias; Carieen Hallstead; Jennifer Eaton at Home; Maria Bercovitz; Michael Sachs;.

Janet Brown indicated today that it will be removed from the agenda tonight and the public hearing on this will be held two weeks later on 27 April 2004. She said that any email to her on this subject would be part of the packet to the City Council on this hearing subject and would qualify for any future court action, if needed. She showed me two graphical representations (insert into photos) showing what Cingular suggests their cellular tower (they call it a "flagpole ") would look like. I showed her that the car in the photo was about 5' or 6' high and if multiplied 10 times would be much higher than the pole /tower showed by Cingular. I'll send you some graphics later. She said she will try to have Cingular depict the visual appearance of the pole /tower from the Sunset View Park walkway as Hoag Hospital had to do with their proposed improvement plan. I asked her what the City regulations were relative to such construction. She said the height limit for this zone would be 24 feet, however there is an exception for flag poles for which 35 foot limit is allowed. (So I wonder why they call it a flag pole ?) Cingular is not only proposing to define it as a flagpole, by putting a flag on top, but want to have the height limit increased to 50 feet, plus the 7 foot height of the base for a total of 57 feet. Janet indicated that Cingular advised her that such a "flag pole' is installed at the Jamboree and MacArthur in the City of Irvine. I went to that location and took some photos. It is 18 inches in diameter and looks quite out of place. The cell tower proposed by Cingular is 24 inches, 33% greater in diameter. I'll try to develop some graphics from the photos of that tower /pole also.

Is that still the latest or has it been changed again? I have attached two photos with inserts to depict what the Cingular cell tower "flagpole" would look like from the Sunset View Park walkway in a couple of locations. These are photos I took several years ago when Hoag was excavating away their lower campus site. Please note Catalina Island in the background. The flag and large pole would sure be a strange and inappropriate addition to the panorama. I have also attached a 1990 aerial photo of this area and inserted a red line to indicate the general direction of the flag from the walkway.

Taking Advantage of City Rules 1. Inappropriate Precedence 2. Inappropriate Site for Such a Tall Structure 3. Sample Height Posts Needed 4. Taking Advantage of City Rules a. Zoning calls for 26' height limit b. Flag pole exception allows 35' height limit C. Cell tower isn't a flagpole, but let's put a flag on it and call it a flagpole (will that fool anyone ?) d. Since we have gone that far lets have a 50' tower (and also why not add a 7' -4" base ?) (Ground el. 27' + 7' + 50' = 84') e. Zone A (closest to Superior Ave.) top of bluff elev. = 72 and building height limit = elev. 67 5. Inappropriate Precedence a. If this is allowed, what about the master plan conditions agreed to for Hoag Hospital? Might this prompt a change? b. Use height limits agreed to with Hoag (Max = elev. 67) 6. Inappropriate Site for Such a Tall Structure a. Planned Community Development Plan for Hoag Hospital preserves and enhances public views from the Sunset View Park pedestrian /bicycle trail b. Tall Cell Tower penetrates the view plane to ocean & island C. See handout photos depicting what views would look like 7. Sample Height Posts Needed a. It would be desirable to place a sample temporary post or something so the height could be visualized from the Sunset View Park pedestrian /bicycle trail too lei 00, A41 Amg&m A e fir `: -.; ,; -.:, ,., ;,c ,� �� . r �, 4 J �.. �:. r 4 :� -' ; i. �': `Cr S �t � j ) �.... ,`. a�:, _ 4 " \Y - �� R ,��, ` , ��. �. ��, .,`\ 1 r `; �\ �. 1 1..

The City Council makes the findings contained in the Statement of Facts with respect to significant impacts identified in the Final EIR together with the finding that each fact in support of the findings is true and is based upon substantial evidence in the record, including the final EIR. The Statement of Facts is attached hereto as Exhibit "A" and incorporated herein by this reference as if fully set forth. 2. The City Council finds that the facts set forth in the Statement of Overriding Considerations are true and are supported by substantial evidence in the record, including the final EIR. The Statement of Overriding Considerations is attached hereto as Exhibit "B" and incorporated herein by this reference as if fully set forth. 3. The City Council finds that the final EIR has identified all significant environmental effects of the project and that there are no known potential environmental impacts not addressed in the final EIR. 4. The City Council finds that all significant effects of the project are set forth in the Statement of Facts. 5. The City Council finds that although the final EIR identifies certain significant environmental effects that will result if the project is approved, all significant effects that can feasibly be avoided or mitigated have been avoided or mitigated by the imposition of conditions on the approved General Plan Amendment and the imposition of mitigation measures as set forth in the Statement of Facts and the final EIR. • 6. The City Council finds that potential mitigation measures and project alternatives not incorporated into the project were rejected as infeasible, based upon specific economic, social and other considerations as set forth in the Statement of Facts and the final EIR. 7. The City Council finds.that the unavoidable significant impacts of the project, as identified in the Statement of Facts, that have not been - 2 - 0 0 reduced to a level of insignificance have been substantially reduced in their impacts by the imposition of conditions on the approved General Plan Amendment and the imposition of mitigation measures. In making its decision on the project, the City Council has given greater weight to the adverse environmental impacts. The City Council finds that the remaining unavoidable significant impacts are clearly outweighed by the economic, social and other benefits of the project, as set forth in the State of Overriding Considerations. 8. The City Council finds that the final EIR has described all reasonable alternatives to the project that could feasibly obtain the basic objectives of the, project, even when those alternatives might impede the attainment of project objectives and might be more costly. Further, the City Council finds that a good faith effort was made to incorporate alternatives in the preparation of the draft EIR and all reasonable alternatives were considered in the review process of the final EIR and ultimate decisions on the project. 9. The City Council finds that the project should be approved and that any alternative to this action should not be approved for the project based on the information contained in the final EIR, the data contained in the Statement of Facts and for the reasons stated in the public record and those contained in the Statement of Overriding Considerations. 10. The City Council finds that a good faith effort has been made to seek out and incorporate all points of view in the preparation of the draft and final EIR as indicated in the public record on the project, including the final EIR. 11. The City Council finds that during the public hearing process on General Plan Amendment 81 -2, the Planning Commission and the environmental documents evaluated a range of alternative land uses and intensities and the project, as approved by this Resolution, is included within that range of alternatives. Therefore, the City Council finds that it is not necessary to • refer the General Plan Amendment back to the Planning Commission for report and recommendation. The City Council has considered the recommendation of the Planning Commission in its decision on the project. 12. The City Council finds and determines that the Final Environmental Impact Report consists of the following documents: a) Volume I - Draft EIR b) Volume II - Technical Appendices - 3 - s 0 c) volume III - Attachments No. 1 and 2 including comments and responses, additional information, and Planning Commission minutes and staff reports. d) Additional Planning Commission minutes e) Planning Commission Resolutions f) City Council Minutes g) City Council Staff Reports (with attachments) h) Comments and responses received prior to final action and not contained in a) through g) above. • All of the above information has been and will be on file with the Planning Department, City of Newport Beach, City Hall, 3300 Newport Boulevard, Newport Beach, CA 92663, (714).640 -2197. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Newport Beach that the Land Use, Residential Growth and Recreation and Open Space Elements and Maps are hereby amended, establishing the following land uses, policies and constraints on future development: Land Use Element CalTrans West: Designate the ±13 acre site northwesterly of the intersection of West Coast Highway and Superior Avenue for Multiple - Family Residential uses at 15 dwelling units per buildable acre. 1. The preferred access to the CalTrans West site is from the proposed Bluff Road (Balboa Boulevard extension) across a portion of the Banning property. A reasonable effort must be made to establish this access from Bluff Road at the time of approval of the tentative tract map for the CalTrans West site if it is submitted prior to tentative maps for the Banning- Newport Ranch. Temporary and limited access may be developed from realigned Superior Avenue. The precise location of all access will be determined at the time of approval of the tentative tract map. 2. That existing views of ocean and bay shall be preserved for a line -of -sight four feet above the lower balcony level of a Newport Crest residence. 3. 20% of the total dwelling units shall be affordable to low and moderate income households as defined in the City's Housing Element. 4. 10% of the total dwelling units shall be affordable to low and moderate income households as set forth in Section 50093 of the Health and Safety Code. 5. CalTrans West will be required to comply with the park dedication ordinance. A park of at least 5 acres in size is to be developed between Coast Highway, Superior Avenue, 15th Street (extended), and Bluff Road (Balboa Boulevard extended). The specific size, location, design, and the means to acquire and develop the park will be determined at the time of approval • of the tentative tract maps for CalTrans West and /or the adjacent Banning - Newport Ranch residential developments. 6. A view park of it acre shall be located on -site and shall partially satisfy the requirements for park dedication contained in Chapter 19.50 of the Newport Beach Municipal Code. 7. A pedestrian and bicycle easement shall be developed to connect the view park with the neighborhood park. The easement shall as much as possible be located to take advantage of ocean and bay views. Precise location and design shall be determined at the time of approval of the tentative tract map. - 4 - S. The applicant or successor in interest shall participate in 508 of all costs related to the provision of a pedestrian and bicycle bridge over Superior Avenue at a point to be determined in conjunction with the location of the view park at the time of approval of th tentative tract map. 9. A landscaped greenbelt shall be established adjacent to Newport Crest. The greenbelt shall be a minimum of 30 feet wide and be maintained by the applicant or successor in interest. Park credit shall not be given for the greenbelt. 10. CalTrans will enter into an agreement to dedicate to the City of Newport Beach the property required for the realignment of Superior Avenue. 11. Because of difficulties in providing vehicular access to CalTrans East, and in recognition of both the State's need to dispose of this site and Hoag Hospital's need for additional land, CalTrans has entered into negotiations with Hoag Hospital for the acquisition of CalTrans East.
