Dear Mr. Waller:
On March 14, 2012, the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors approved the above - referenced request
for installation of a second flush- mounted antenna array replacing recently removed whip antennas in
order to support the attachment of a new antenna array in a second vertical array below the company's
existing antennas. This special use permit was approved based on the following conditions:
Development and use shall be in general accord with what is described in the applicant's request
and site plans, entitled "Southwest Mountain LTE 4G Upgrade ", with a final zoning drawing
submittal date of 11/10/11 (hereafter "Conceptual Plan "), as determined by the Director of
Planning and Zoning Administrator. To be in accord with the Conceptual Plan, development and
use shall reflect the following major elements within the development essential to the design of
the development, as shown on the Conceptual Plan:
— Height
— Mounting type
— Antenna type
— Number of antenna
— Color
— Location of ground equipment and fencing
Minor modifications to the plan which do not conflict with the elements above may be made to
ensure compliance with the Zoning Ordinance;
The monopole shall not be increased in height above the existing two - hundred sixty (260) feet
above ground level (AGL).
Equipment shall be attached to the exterior of a structure only as follows: (i) The total number of
arrays of antennas attached to the existing structure shall not exceed six (6), and each antenna
proposed to be attached under the pending application shall not exceed the size shown on the
application, which size shall not exceed one thousand one hundred fifty two (1,152) square
inches.
4. Prior to issuance of a building permit, the owner of the facility shall submit an updated report to
the agent identifying each user of the tower to be updated annually between May 1 and July 1 in
accordance with the requirements of Section 5.1.40(c)(7).
Please be advised that although the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors took action on the
project noted above, no uses on the property as approved above may lawfully begin until all
applicable approvals have been received and conditions have been met. This includes:
• compliance with conditions of the SPECIAL USE PERMIT;
• approval of and compliance with a SITE PLAN amendment; and
• approval of a ZONING COMPLIANCE CLEARANCE.
In the event that the use, structure or activity for which this special use permit is issued is not commenced
within twenty -four (24) months from the date of Board approval, it shall be deemed abandoned and the
permit terminated. The term "commenced" means "construction of any structure necessary to the use of
the permit."
If you have questions or comments regarding the above -noted action, please do not hesitate to contact
Rebecca Ragsdale at 296 -5832.
Sincerely, ,
U-
