HomeMy WebLinkAboutARB201900067 Request for Approval for Tier II Personal Wireless Service Facility 2019-05-30VERIZON WIRELESS - "SHADWELL" (EASTON PROPERTY) TIER II PERSONAL WIRELESS SERVICE FACILITY Project Description / Request: Cellco Partnership, operating as Verizon, Wireless ("Verizon"), respectfully requests approval of a Tier II Personal Wireless Service Facility (PWSF), with a 100.5-foot tall monopole to be located adjacent to a parcel with the nearest current address of 3646 Richmond Road, and identified as Tax Map & Parcel Number 079A1-00-OC-00300 (the "Property"). Verizon's proposed radio transmitter cabinet will be placed on a concrete pad, beside an approximately 10' wide utility H-frame stand for other power and communications components on a steel grated platform, and an emergency back-up power generator on another concrete pad. This facility will be installed within a 1,600 square -foot leased area with a 720 square -foot fenced compound platform covered with an ice guard to prevent possible damage to the ground equipment due to falling tree branches and ice. The monopole, antennas, and base station equipment that might be visible above the screening fence will all be painted with Sherwin Williams Java Brown - #6090, which is a matte enamel color that has been previously approved as an appropriate color for many other "Treetop" Personal Wireless Service Facility sites throughout Albemarle County. Previous Project Application (SDP201700055): Please note that, in 2017, Verizon submitted a Tier II PWSF application for this location with 114.5-foot monopole, but it was placed on hold due to issues with the visibility that originally came about during the Architectural Review Board's review of a balloon test and the resulting photosimulations of the monopole. When it was determined that the Planning Department's staff also had issues with the balloon's visibility, Verizon instructed the site surveyor to remeasure the top heights of the reference tree and other trees to be relied upon for screening using a different method. Therefore, in January 2018, while there were no leaves on the deciduous trees, the surveyors were able to employ the assistance of a crane company that provided a truck with a lift and man basket that was able to provide unobstructed access to the survey the treetop heights and also use tape measurements as a back-up method with less margin for error than the original surveyed heights measured from the ground upward through the tree limbs in May 2016. The monopole is now being proposed at a height of 100.5' and 510' AMSL and based on the updated survey that places the height of the reference tree at 92' AGL and 500' AMSL. Therefore, the previous concerns for visual impacts that were prevalent during review.of the previous application should be alleviated because the monopole's proposed height will. be 14 feet lower than that of the first application. Network Obiectives: Verizon is licensed bythe Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to provide state-of-the-art wireless telecommunications services within Albemarle County using a combination of four (4) separate bands on the frequency spectrum. These consist of the 850 MHz band for Cellular (CDMA), the 1900 MHZ frequency band for Personal Communications Services (PCS), the 4G Long Term Evolution (LTE) on 700 MHz band and Advance Wireless Services (AWS) on the 2100 MHz band. The network offers data upload and download transmission speeds that much faster than the previous generations of wireless technologies. Verizon has also recently added high -definition calling capabilities to the data networks in the form of Voice Over LTE (VOLTS) service. Verizon PWSF Page 1 Shadwell (Easton) Whenever possible, it is Verizon's goal to provide seamless in -building, in -car and on -street coverage and the full range of voice and data services to existing and future customers. Verizon has determined that the area surrounding this proposed site needs expanded coverage to better serve the nearby residences and businesses. Therefore, this site is intended to provide infill coverage while also adding additional network capacity by offloading traffic from the company's nearest existing sites in all directions. Although the proposed 100.5' monopole tower would not be the ideal height for maximizing coverage, it should allow the antennas to clear the highest treetops within the immediate area on this parcel allowing service from this facility to connect with the customers who are currently drawing on the marginal coverage levels that are currently being provided by the two nearest, neighboring sites: "South West Mountain" to the northwest (co -location on the guyed tower off Lego Drive, near Ashcroft) and "Keswick" to the southeast (co -location on the self-supporting lattice tower near Exit 129 from 1-64). Character of the Area: The proposed PWSF will be contained within a 1,600 square -foot lease area located on this currently vacant parcel, to the north of an existing dwelling and a business that are both located on adjacent parcels that share common ownership with the Property. The site of this facility has a ground level elevation of 409.3 feet Above Mean Sea Level (AMSL). This parcel, which is currently vacant, contains 1.00 acre just south of 1-64 that is zoned Rural Areas (RA) and located within Entrance Corridor (EC) Overlay District and in the Scottsville Magisterial District. Adjoining properties directly to the west and north on the opposite side of 1-64 are all zoned RA, while adjacent parcels just to the east and south are a mixture of Commercial (Cl) and RA. Other nearby properties to the south and southwest are zoned Neighborhood Model District (NMD) and Planned Residential Development (PRD), existing and planned future densities in both developments are contributing factors to the need for additional network capacity in this area. Access to the proposed PWSF will be provided from the northern side of Richmond Road East (US Route 250) over an existing driveway that runs between the rental dwelling (on TMP 079A1-00-OC-01600) and Easton's Furniture (on TMP 079A1-00-OC-01300) and will be extended north into the wooded area behind those parcels. The proposed monopole will be located approximately 123 feet north of the nearest boundary line with TMP 079A1-00-OC-1300, which has shared ownership with the subject parcel, and 27 feet south of the right-of-way for 1-64. The nearest off -site dwelling is located approximately 205 feet southwest of the monopole site on property identified as Tax Map / Parcel Number 079A1-00-0C- 01800. Compliance with Section 5.1.40 of the Albemarle County Zoning Ordinance Section 5 1 40(b) - Development Requirements for Tier II Personal Wireless Service Facilities (Items 1 - 12 1. General design: The facility shall be designed, installed and maintained as follows. (a) Guy wires: The proposed monopole will not require any installation of guy wires. (b) Outdoor lighting: One LED Floodlight will be placed on the utility H-frame and these lights will only be used as needed during unexpected events that require nighttime visits by Verizon's technical operations staff. The proposed light must be adjustable to illuminate various parts of the compound for safety reasons. However, it will not be turned on nightly and will be located well below the treetops which will provide natural shielding from the light shining skyward during any relatively short periods of emergency maintenance. Verizon PWSF Page 2 Shadwell (Easton) (c) Ground equipment: Proposed equipment consisting of the base station cabinets, H-frame stand and generator will be placed in a location that is screened from offsite views by the surrounding trees, and a wooden fence will also be installed to help fortify the existing screening elements that is offered to this site. Any portions of equipment that are visible above the screening fence will be painted to match the tower and blend into the wooded area. (d) Whip antenna: No whip antennas are currently proposed with this application. (e) Grounding rod: The proposed grounding rod to be mounted at the top of this monopole will comply with the County's sizing requirements for a maximum of 2 feet in length and 1-inch in diameter. 2. Antennas and associated equipment. (a) Number of arrays: Verizon will use a mounting collar and mounting frames that will allow all six (6) of the necessary antennas to be installed in a single array within three (3) horizontally separated sectors at the same height. This antenna array will be centerline mounted at the 96- foot AGL level (519.5' AMSL) level, with two (2) antennas will be grouped in each sector to support the combination of the licensed Cellular, PCS, LTE and AWS frequencies all at one mounting level on the monopole. Other supporting devices that consists of six (6) remote radio heads and two (2) fiber optics surge protection box will be placed below the antenna array at heights that are not expected to be visible from the adjacent properties or any distant off -site views. (b) Size: The antennas initially to be installed in Verizon's array are identified as Commscope Model Number: JAHH-65C-R3B [95.7"(H) x 13.8"(W) x 7.1"(D), equaling 1320.66 square inches]. Specific equipment will likely change over the life of the PWSF as technology advances. (c) Projection: The antennas are proposed to be mounted with 18" between the face of the monopole and the backs of the antennas, and no need for physical down -tilting. Therefore, Verizon is also requesting approval of a Special Exception to modify Section 5.1.40.b(2)(c) of the Zoning Ordinance which allows maximum distances of 12" to 18" between the face of the monopole and the back of the antennas when down -tilting is employed. (d) Color: All antennas will be painted the same Java Brown color as the proposed monopole. 3. Tree conservation plan; content. The locations of proposed tree protection fencing are shown on the Grading & Erosion Control Plan Sheet C-4. Prior to the approval of a building permit, Verizon will also provide a tree conservation plan that has been prepared by a Certified Arborist. As standard practice, the designated arborist has not issued written conservation plan letters until after they have had the chance to review Verizon's Final Construction Drawings / Site Plan and visit the site. The final issued letters often provide recommendations for any post -construction tree care techniques in addition to granting approval for all proposed land disturbance techniques, vegetation protection fencing locations, and other design elements that might affect the health of trees that surround this site. 4. Creation of slopes steeper than 2:1. Upon the completion of this project, none of the remaining slopes will be greater than 2:1 as a result of construction and land disturbing activities for the proposed facility. Verizon PWSF Page 3 Shadwell (Easton) 5. Ground equipment shelter; fencing. Verizon is proposing the installation of a 6-foot high wooden stockade fence in order to prevent trespassing, while also providing additional screening the from nearby properties during the fall and winter. The location and design details of the proposed screening fence are provided in the construction drawings /site plan being submitted with this application. 6. Screening and siting to minimize visibility. When viewed from the south, the proposed facility will be located toward rear of the Property behind several mature trees. Although the facility will be 27 feet from the right-of-way line for I- 64, there are additional mature trees on both sides of the property line that will assist in screening views of the monopole from the adjacent highway, directly in front of the site. The deeper wooded areas extending to the east and west will also assist in screening views of the monopole and base station equipment from nearby parcels and passing traffic in those directions as well. 7. Open space plan resources. Aside from the fact that this site in the Entrance Corridor Overlay District, which requires the need for Architectural Review Board approval, Verizon has identified no other open space, natural, man- made or other specifically identified resources that would be adversely impacted by approval of this application. 8. Horizontal separation of multiple facilities. The proposed PSWF will be the first of its kind to be located on the subject parcel, and there are not any other facilities located on any of the adjacent parcels. Therefore, there will be no other existing facilities that are within the close proximity as specified by the restrictions of this particular section. 9. Diameter of monopole. As indicated in the attached construction drawings, Verizon's proposed monopole will be designed and constructed so that it is 30 inches at its base and tapers to 18 inches at its top. 10. Height of monopole. At 100.5 feet tall (510 feet Above Mean Sea Level - AMSL), the proposed monopole will be approximately 10 feet above the top elevation of the reference tree, which is identified as a 30" diameter oak that is 92 feet tall (500 feet AMSL), and has a drip line that is approximately 1.8 feet south of where the monopole will be installed. 11. Color of monopole, antennas, and equipment. The monopole and all antennas will be painted Sherwin Williams lava Brown #6090, a color that has been applied to previously approved Tier II and treetop PWSF monopoles in Albemarle County. All of the base station equipment that is installed to support this facility will also be painted the same color and enclosed within a wooden screening and security fence as well. 12. Placement of cables, wires and similar attachments.. The proposed monopole will be designed and constructed to contain all of Verizon Wireless's coaxial and fiber optic cables that will run from the ground equipment to all antennas and their supporting devices. Verizon PWSF Page 4 Shadwell (Easton) Section 5.1.40(c) - Applicability of other regulations in this chapter (Items 1-6): 1. Building site exemption. Verizon acknowledges this exemption from the standard building site requirements for Personal Wireless Service Facilities. 2. Vehicular access. Please refer to Sheet C-4B, which provides design details proposing upgrades from the existing non -conforming entrance to a VDOT standard low -volume commercial entrance for this site. Beyond the entrance, the longest stretch of access to the proposed facility will pass over the existing driveway that serves both an existing dwelling and the furniture store on the adjoining parcels to the south. From there, a new portion of access to the proposed facility will extend approximately 130 feet west into a mostly clear area in a path that requires the removal of only three trees that are larger than 6 inches in caliper, as shown on Sheet C-IA. 3. Setbacks. Verizon has selected a location for this proposed monopole that is approximately 127 feet (126% of its height) away from the nearest boundary line to the south, shared with a parcel that has common ownership with the subject property. This exceeds the minimum required setback distance for towers and similar structures, which is equal to 100% of the monopole's height from the parcel lines shared with adjoining parcels. There are no specified setbacks from the adjoining boundary lines that are shared with the right- of-way for 1-64, and VDOT's representative has previously commented that the department does not have any concerns with the portion of the previously proposed 115' monopole's fall -zone overlapping the right-of-way. 4. Area, bulk, and minimum yards. Verizon acknowledges this exemption that allows relief to Personal Wireless Service Facilities from the standard area, bulk and minimum yard requirements. 5. Required yards. Verizon acknowledges this exemption that allows relief to Personal Wireless Service Facilities from the required yard standards. 6. Site plan. Please refer to the attached construction drawings with site plan details and the specification sheets for proposed antennas and equipment that all demonstrate compliance with the Tier II PWSF criteria, set forth in Section 5.1.40(a)(4) - Plans and Supporting Documents. Any other supporting information that is deemed relevant to the requirements set forth in Section 32 of the zoning ordinance for site plans can be submitted upon request. Verizon PWSF Page 5 Shadwell (Easton) Conclusion: Approval of this PWSF application will contribute to the expansion of Verizon's coverage to the rural areas, existing and future residents and businesses in the nearby planned developments, as well as travelers on two major roadways (1-64 and US 250). This facility will also help to reinforce network capacity and relieve some of the high levels of traffic that has be experienced at Verizon's existing neighbor facilities due to the increased demands for service in the nearby development area that is rapidly growing. Installation of this PWSF will improve wireless coverage within an area of the county that experiences high levels of network traffic but is currently underserved, especially during times when network traffic peaks. The monopole tower serving this WCF will meet the County's design preference for monopoles that extend just above the treetops with dark brown finishes and well -screened base station compounds. Therefore, Verizon is confident that the proposed Personal Wireless Service Facility will meet the design criteria necessary for approval of a Tier II facility, and that it does not conflict with any of the goals and objectives set forth in the Albemarle County Comprehensive Plan.
