Planning — Andrew Knuppel
[5.1.40(b)(2)(c), 5.1.40(a)(12)] Projection. A special exception was requested to modify Section
5.1.40(b)(2)(c) of the Zoning Ordinance, particularly the requirement that "in no case shall the
closest point of the back of the antenna be more than twelve (12) inches from the facility ". Per the
narrative submitted with the application, the closest point of the back of the antennas will be
approximately 18 inches from the face of the monopole. However, the proposal will comply with
the larger (18") limitation for the farthest point of the back of the antenna. Staff has no objection
to this request and has scheduled this item on the consent agenda for the Board of
Supervisors' August 21, 2019 meeting.
