CHUBBUCK I D R H 0 City of Chubbuck Land Use and Development Commission Regular Meeting April 13, 2021 7:00 PM City Hall Council Chambers 5160 Yellowstone Avenue, Chubbuck, ID 83202 MINUTES Board Members Present: Chair Jason Mendenhall, Mike Schwartz, Vice -Chair Dan Stoddard, Rebecca Berls, Brady Smith, Thais Ayre, and Carrie Holm. Staff Members Present: City Attorney Tom Holmes, Planning Manager Don Matson, Development Services Manager Sean Harris, Planning and Development Director Devin Hillam and Deputy Clerk Paul Andrus. Mendenhall called the meeting to order at 7:00pm Mendenhall asked if any commissioners had a conflict of interest with the items before the board. Thais recused herself from public hearing #2. APPROVAL OF THE MINUTES: March 11, 2021. Mendenhall entertained a motion to approve the minutes as emailed. Stoddard moved to accept the meeting minutes of March 11, 2021 as emailed; Schwartz seconded. The full authority approved. PUBLIC BEARING 1. A proposal by city staff to replace existing Chapter 18.28 Administration of the Land Use Ordinance with a rewritten chapter 18.28 Administration, setting forth a new scope, procedures, requirements, and review and approval criteria for conditional use permits, variances, comprehensive plan amendments, title text and map amendments, annexations, appeals of administrative and land use and development commission decisions, and for requests for reconsideration of City Council decisions. Type of Action: Recommendation. Planning and Development Director Devin Hillam presented some inconsistences in City Code and these proposed solutions would align City Code more closely with Idaho Code's Local Land Use Planning Act (LLUPA). These inconsistences include variances, public hearings, conditional use permits, and rezones. Idaho Code for variances requires notification to adjacent property owners, whereas City Code requires notification to all property owners within 300ft. Idaho code also only requires one public hearing for most land use applications. Idaho Code also requires a process to request a reconsideration before a decision goes to district court. City Code currently does not have a set process for an applicant to request a decision reconsideration. City Code also does not address items to consider when approving a rezone, text amendment, annexation, and a comprehensive plan. City Staff recommended adding as a consideration factor for an annexation application; that the income generated by property taxes would exceed long term cost to the City, associated with maintenance, provision of services, and facilities, and that the advantages for both the City and applicant outweigh the disadvantages. Mendenhall asked about adding a time table after a conditional use permit is approved. Hillam stated that most conditional permits already have a set time period for projects to be completed. Berls asked about expanding minimizing adverse impact on other developments in section 18.28.020. Hillam stated that wording came straight from Idaho Code for existing and planned developments throughout the community. Berls also asked conditional use permit restrictions and if the Land Use Board would still have the ability to make aesthetic recommendation on an application as a condition of approval. Hillam stated that the Board would still have that ability to make aesthetic conditions but at the same time this section would keep the Board from completely redesigning the final project for the applicant. Mendenhall opened the Public Hearing. There being no comment, Mendenhall closed the public hearing, bringing the meeting back to the Commission. Berls moved to recommend an approval of the amendments to section 18.28 Administration of the Land Use as presented. Schwartz seconded. With all commission members understanding the motion they voted. Roll Call Vote: Brady Smith, Yes; Dan Stoddard, Yes; Rebecca Berls, Yes; Mike Schwartz, Yes; Carrie Holm, Yes; Thais Ayre, Yes; Jason Mendenhall, Yes; Motion carried. 2. An application for a Conditional Use Permit to build 4-plex apartments on approximately 2.05 acres of land under application for approval in the General Commercial (C-2) zone (currently in the Limited Residential (R-2) zone). Subject property is in the NW % of Section 10, Township 6 South, Range 34 East of the Boise Meridian, Idaho, generally located at 251 W. Linden, Chubbuck, Idaho. The Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use map designates this area as Commercial. Type of Action: Decision. Chris Street, HLE Construction, represented the applicant. Mr. Street presented an application for a conditional use permit to build 4-plex apartments on approximately 2.05 acres of land that is currently zoned as General Commercial (C-2). Mr. Street also stated that the applicant had been working directly with the neighbors to address any concerns with irrigation and fencing. Berls asked about including a child friendly playground with this development, due to the distance from community parks. Mr. Street didn't have any concerns with including some sort of playground amenity for the residents. Berls also asked if these 4-plexes would be maintained under common ownership or sold as individual units, and if an HOA would be put in place to maintain common areas and the property surrounding the buildings. Applicant Kent Morris stated that the current plan is to have these under one common ownership, but there is a possibility that those plans could change in the future. Mr. Morris also stated that an HOA would be put in place to maintain common areas and the property surrounding the buildings. Stoddard asked if this property would be plated by building or by unit. Morris stated that each building will be plated as an individual unit. Smith asked the applicant if there was any concerns with the recommended conditions from City Staff. Mr. Street stated that the applicant didn't have any concerns with the recommendations from City Staff. Planning Manager Don Matson stated that this application had been reviewed by City Staff and appears to meet the standards of Titles 16, 17 and 18 of City Code, and recommended approval. Mendenhall opened the Public Hearing for public comment. John Aller at 222 West Linden, was neutral. Mr. Aller was concerned about the condition and the width of the current street. Mr. Aller also felt like the City needed to remove the trees across from this development that is currently in the street right of way. There being no more comment, Mendenhall closed the public hearing, bringing the meeting back to the Commission. Mendenhall asked City Staff about the condition of the current road. Mr. Matson stated that the street department was aware of the road conditions and are currently in the planning process to repair the current road. Schwartz motioned to approve a conditional use permit to build 4-plexes as presented, conditional upon staff recommendations. Berls seconded. Stoddard asked if the motion needed to include specific enhancement features as recommended by city staff. Matson gave examples of options from the City's current PUD Ordinance and stated that the applicant would need to choose at least three of those options to comply with the recommendation from staff. Schwartz amended his previous motion and motioned to approve a conditional use permit to build 4-plexes as presented, conditional upon staff recommendations and an amenity to be installed in the open space and final approval of the enhancement features on the outside of the buildings by city staff. Berls seconded. With all commission members understanding the motion they voted. Roll Call Vote: Dan Stoddard, Yes; Rebecca Berls, Yes; Mike Schwartz, Yes; Carrie Hohn, Yes; Jason Mendenhall, Yes; Brady Smith, Yes; Motion carried. 3. An application for a Conditional Use Permit to build townhouses on approximately .40 acres of land in the General Commercial (C-2) zone. Subject property is in the NW % of Section 3, Township 6 South, Range 34 East of the Boise Meridian, Idaho, generally located at 151 W. Park Lawn Drive, Chubbuck, Idaho. The Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use map designates this area as Commercial. Type of Action: Decision. Jonathan Vincent represented the application. Mr. Vincent presented an application for a conditional use permit to build townhouses on approximately .40 acres of land that is currently zoned as General Commercial (C-2). Mr. Vincent stated that a water agreement had been made with The Falls Townhomes to supply the needed water for this subdivision and they had also made an agreement with Tastee Treat that will allow the sanitation department access to better service the dumpster for this subdivision. Berls asked if the tenants of this subdivision would have access to the amenities at The Falls subdivision. Vincent stated that this subdivision would have its own HOA and amenities for the tenants, and would not have access to The Falls subdivision amenities. Smith asked if a final agreement had been signed with Tastee Treat. Vincent stated that the owner of Tastee Treat had agreed to the agreement but a final contract was still being drafted and waiting for final approval from city staff. Senior Planner Don Matson stated that this application had been reviewed by City Staff and appears to meet the standards of Titles 16, 17 and 18 of City Code, and recommended approval. Mendenhall opened the Public Hearing. There being no comment, Mendenhall closed the public hearing, bringing the meeting back to the Commission. Stoddard motioned to approve a conditional use permit to build townhouses as presented, conditional upon staff recommendations. Smith seconded. With all commission members understanding the motion they voted. Roll Call Vote: Rebecca Berls, Yes; Mike Schwartz, Yes; Carrie Holm, Yes; Thais Ayre, Yes; Jason Mendenhall, Yes; Brady Smith, Yes; Dan Stoddard, Yes; Motion carried. GENERAL BUSINESS 1. The Commission may review proposed city code text amendments by City Staff and provide input on the following section of draft code: Chapter 18.13 Wireless Telecommunications Facilities. Type of Action: Recommendation. Planning Manager Don Matson gave an update to the Board about potential amendments to City Code 18.13 Wireless Telecommunications Facilities. The placement, appearance and height of wireless telecommunication facilities are regulated by federal, state and local laws. Federal codes limit the City's jurisdiction over some aspects of the facilities, as long as a proposed facility is complying with regulations provided by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). Berls was concerned that exemption 18.13.050K would allow a company to use that exemption to be able to place a tower in a city park or any public space throughout the City without requesting for a conditional use permit from the Board. Hillam stated that this exemption was to allow the City Council if they desired the ability to look at providing W1Fl in public parks or spaces by publically owned or under a private -public partnership agreement to meet the needs of an increasingly mobile work force and to promote a healthy way of life. Berls recommended limiting that exemption to the geographical area of the city park or within the public space that it is intended to serve. Berls also recommended specifically defining a public right of way for this section of code. This item of business will go before the community as a public hearing at the next Board meeting in May. 2. The Commission may discuss future meeting times for consistency throughout the City to have all public hearings at the same time. Type of Action: Decision. Mendenhall presented a letter from City Clerk Joey Bowers making a recommendation for the Land Use Board to start meeting at 6pm for consistency throughout the City to have all public hearings at the same time. Smith agreed with the recommendation. Stoddard felt like the Board was having a hard time getting all the members to attend these meetings on a regular basis and hopes this change will help the members to be able to attend more regularly. Mendenhall motioned to move the meeting time for the Land Use and Development Commission to 6pm starting in May 2 02 1. Smith seconded. With all commission members understanding the motion they voted. Roll Call Vote: Carrie Holm, Yes; Thais Ayre, Yes; Jason Mendenhall, Yes; Brady Smith, Yes; Dan Stoddard, Yes; Rebecca Berls, Yes; Mike Schwartz, Yes; Motion carried. 3. The Commission may discuss downtown and urban architecture styles and potential standards for future development to give general feedback about likes and dislikes. Type of Action: Discussion. Planning and Development Director Devin Hillam presented some examples and wanted to discuss what types of building would be appropriate for a downtown area, and what type of architectural types that the Board would prefer/suggest within a downtown area for the City of Chubbuck. The Board discussed some of their preferences for a downtown area regarding the types of structures, types of building materials and color palettes, type of occupancy (rentals vs ownership), density, appropriate heights, and roof pitches that they liked or disliked within a future downtown area. Mendenhall entertained a motion to adjourn; Schwartz made the motion. Smith seconded. All voted to adjourn at 9:15pm. Jason Mendenhall, Chairperson Joey Bowers, City Clerk This meeting was available to the public electronically and by phone. In-person attendance was allowed, but strict social distancing measures were in place.

Subject property is in the NW 1/4 of Section 3, Township 6 South, Range 34 East of the Boise Meridian, Idaho, generally located at 345 W. Siphon Road, Chubbuck, Idaho. The Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use map designates this area as Mixed Use. Type of Action: Recommendation STAFF FINDINGS: After review the application, Staff finds that it likely meets the requirements for the Change in Land Use District. • The Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use map designates this area for Mixed Use development, which is supported by the Limited Commercial (C-1) zone as well as all residential zoning districts. • The new owner of the home would like to use the vacant building on site (formerly Hatch's House of Dolls) as rental space for appropriate businesses. There are few use options available without a zone change and/or conditional use permit (CUP). • Staff recommends approval of the request. FACTS BACKGROUND: The property includes a home, the larger shop and display building (formerly Hatch's House of Dolls), and an outbuilding. The new owner proposes to use or lease out the existing building, no improvements are anticipated at this time. At some point in the future, such as if a building permit is requested, a plat and some physical improvements may be required. Records of survey have been filed to correct/confirm property boundaries. The zone change, if approved, will follow the legal property boundaries rather than fence lines where they may deviate. Most businesses in the C-1 zone will require a CUP, giving neighbors the opportunity to review and provide comment to the Land Use and Development Commission. Campos Zone Change TYPE OF COMMISSION ACTION: Quasi -Judicial (Subject to appeal; decisions must be supported by the evidence and by applying law to the facts; decisions shall be based on the standards for approval).

Signs Prohibited: Except as set forth herein, no signs, banners or similar devices or materials may be attached to the tower, antenna support structures or antennas. -1.I. While collocation and the requirements herein are encouraged, collocation shall not take precedence over the construction of shorter towers with appropriate screening. (Ord. 535 §2, 2000) 18.13.110: DESIGN CRITERIA: A. As provided above, new facilities shall be designed to accommodate collocation, unless the applicant demonstrates why such design is not feasible for economic, technical, or physical reasons. B. Facilities shall be architecturally compatible with the surrounding buildings and land uses in the zoning district and screened or otherwise integrated, through location and design, to blend in with the existing characteristics of the site. 1. Setback: A tower's setback shall be measured from the base of the tower to the property line of the parcel on which it is located. In residential districts and residential land use areas, where permitted, towers shall be set back from all property lines a distance equal to one hundred percent (100%) of tower height as measured from ground level, unless applicant demonstrates that because of design, landscaping or screening, unusual geographic limitations or other public policy considerations such a setback is unnecessary and the city, in its sole discretion, determines such a setback is not necessary. All other towers shall comply with the minimum setback requirements of the area in which they are located in all other zoning districts, unless there are unusual geographical limitations or other public policy considerations as determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the city. Such considerations shall include by way of illustration and not limitation, but are not limited to: Draft Chubbuck City Code 18.13 —for 5/11/21 LUDC Public Hearing Page 15 Exhibit 1: Drat Chapter 18.13 (colored text) a. Impact on adjacent properties; b. Alternative sites for personal wireless facilities; and c. The extent to which screening and camouflaging will mitigate the effects of the personal wireless facilities. 2. Right-of-way Setback Exception: The setback requirement may be waived if the antenna and antenna support structure is located in the city right-of-way. 3. View Corridors: Due consideration shall be given so that placement of towers, antennas, and personal wireless service facilities do not obstruct or significantly diminish views. 4. Color: Towers shall have a color generally matching the surroundings or background that minimizes their visibility, unless a different color is required by the FCC or FAA. Security fencing should be colored or should be of a design which blends into the character of the existing neighborhood. S. Lights, Signals And Signs: No signals, lights, or signs shall be permitted on towers unless required by the FCC or the FAA. Should lighting be required, in cases where there are residences located within a distance which is three hundred percent (300%) of the height of the tower, then dual mode lighting shall be requested from the FAA. 6. Equipment Structures: Ground level equipment, buildings, and the tower base shall be screened from public view. All such structures shall be considered primary structures, not accessory structures. The standards for the equipment buildings are as follows: a. The maximum floor area is three hundred (300) square feet and the maximum height is twelve feet (12'). Except in unusual circumstances or for other public policy considerations the equipment building may be located no more than two hundred fifty feet (250') from the tower or antenna. Depending upon the aesthetics and other issues, the city, in its sole discretion, may approve multiple equipment structures or one or more larger structures. b. Ground level buildings shall be screened from view by landscape plantings, fencing, or other appropriate means, as specified herein or in other city ordinances, code sections or regulations. c. Equipment buildings mounted on a roof shall have a finish similar to the exterior building walls. Equipment for roof mounted antennas may also be located within the building on which the antenna is mounted. d. In instances where equipment buildings are located in residential zones, equipment buildings shall comply with setback requirements and shall be designed so as to conform in appearance with nearby residential structures. e. Equipment buildings, antenna, and related equipment shall occupy no more than twenty five percent (25%) of the total roof area of the building the facility is mounted on, which may vary in the city's sole discretion if collocation and an adequate screening structure is used. f. The use must be approved on a site plan or final development plan, as applicable. 7. Federal Requirements: All towers must meet or exceed current standards and regulations of the FAA, the FCC, and any other agency of the federal government with the authority to regulate towers and antennas. If those standards and regulations are changed, then personal wireless service providers governed by this chapter shall bring their towers and antennas into compliance with the revised standards and regulations within three (3) months of their effective date or the time lines provided by the revised standards and regulations, whichever time period is longer. The revised standards and regulations are not retroactively applicable to existing providers, unless otherwise provided or permitted by federal law. Failure to bring towers and antennas into Draft Chubbuck City Code 18.13 —for 5/11/21 LUDC Public Hearing Page 16 Exhibit 1: Drat Chapter 18.13 (colored text) compliance with the revised standards and regulations shall constitute grounds for the city to remove a provider's facilities at the provider's expense. 8. Building Codes; Safety Standards: To ensure the structural integrity of towers, the owner of a tower shall ensure that it is maintained in compliance with standards contained in applicable city building codes, and the applicable FCC standards for towers, and other standards that are published by the-ECIA E +r„r; ("EIA"), as amended from time to time. If, upon inspection, the city concludes that a tower fails to comply with such codes and standards and constitutes a danger to persons or property, then upon notice being provided to the owner of the tower, the owner shall have thirty (30) days to bring the tower into compliance with such standards. If the owner fails to bring its tower into compliance within thirty (30) days, the city may remove the tower at the owner's expense. If the structure is determined by the city to pose an imminent danger to the public, the city shall be entitled to abate the danger through the processes and according to the timetables of the international building code and the 1997 uniform code for the abatement of dangerous buildings. 9. Structural Design: Towers shall be constructed to the EIA ECIA standards, which may be amended from time to time, and to all applicable construction/building codes. Further, any improvements or additions to existing towers shall require submission of site plans stamped by a professional engineer which demonstrate compliance with the E4A-ECIA standards and all other good industry practices. The plans shall be submitted and reviewed at the time building permits are requested. The antenna and its support structure shall be designed to withstand a wind force of one hundred (100) miles per hour without the use of supporting guywires. 10. Antenna Support Structure Safety: The applicant shall demonstrate that the proposed antenna and support structure is safe and the surrounding areas will not be negatively affected by support structure failure, falling ice, or other debris or interference. All support structures shall be fitted with anticlimbing devices, as approved by the manufacturers. 11.

No tower or antenna that is taller than this minimum height shall be approved unless necessary to accommodate collocation. No tower or mount shall exceed one hundred feet (100') in any park, industrial zone or commercial zone. Towers in residential areas are not allowed unless integrated with another structure. A variance from the height limit may be granted if the applicant can show by clear and convincing evidence that the additional height is necessary to provide adequate service to the residents of the city and no other alternative is available. 12. Required Parking: If the cell site is fully automated, adequate paved parking shall be required for maintenance workers. If the site is not automated, arrangements for adequate off street parking shall be made and documentation thereof provided to the city. 13. Tower Separation: In no case shall towers be located closer than five hundred feet (500') from another tower whether it is owned or utilized by applicant or another provider, unless the city designates areas where multiple towers can be located in closer proximity. 14. Antenna Criteria: Antennas on or above a structure shall be subject to the following: a. The antenna shall be as architecturally compatible as reasonably possible, with the building and wall on which it is mounted, and shall be designed and located so as to minimize any adverse aesthetic impact. b. The antenna shall be mounted on a wall of an existing building in a configuration as flush to the wall as technically possible and shall not project above the wall on which it is mounted Draft Chubbuck City Code 18.13 —for 5/11/21 LUDC Public Hearing Page 17 Exhibit 1: Drat Chapter 18.13 (colored text) unless it must be for technical reasons. In no event shall an antenna project more than sixteen feet (16') above the roofline including parapets. c. The antenna shall be constructed, painted, or fully screened to match as closely as possible the color and texture of the building and wall on which it is mounted. d. The antenna may be attached to an existing conforming mechanical equipment enclosure which projects above the roof of the building, but may not project any higher than the enclosure. e. If an accessory equipment shelter is present, it must blend with the surrounding buildings in architectural character and color. f. The structure must be architecturally and visually (color, size, bulk) compatible with surrounding existing buildings, structures, vegetation, and uses. Such facilities will be considered architecturally and visually compatible if they are camouflaged to disguise the facility. g. Site location and development shall preserve the preexisting character of the site as much as possible. Existing vegetation should be preserved or improved, and disturbance of the existing topography of the site should be minimized, unless such disturbance would result in less visual impact of the site on the surrounding area. The effectiveness of visual mitigation techniques shall be evaluated by the city, in the city's sole discretion. h. In addition to the other requirements of this chapter, on buildings thirty feet (30') or less in height, the antenna may be mounted on the roof if the following additional criteria are satisfied: (1) The city finds that it is not technically possible or aesthetically desirable to mount the antenna on a wall. (2) No portion of the antenna or base station causes the height of the building to exceed the limitations set forth herein. (3) The antenna or antennas and related base stations cover no more than an aggregate total of twenty five percent (25%) of the roof area of a building, which may vary in the city's sole discretion, if collocating and an adequate screening structure is used. (4) Roof mounted antenna and related base stations are completely screened from view by materials that are consistent and compatible with the design, color, and materials of the building. (5) No portion of the antenna may exceed sixteen feet (16') above the height of the existing building. i. If a proposed antenna is located on a building or a lot subject to a site review, approval is required prior to the issuance of a building permit. j. No antenna shall be permitted on property designated as an individual landmark or as a part of a historic district, unless such antenna has been approved in accordance with city ordinances and regulations. k. No personal wireless service provider or lessee or agent thereof shall fail to cooperate in good faith to accommodate collocation with competitors. If a dispute arises about the feasibility of collocating, the city may require a third party technical study, at the expense of either or both parties, to resolve the dispute. 1. No personal wireless service provider or lessee shall fail to assure that its antenna complies at all times with the current applicable FCC standards. After installation, but prior to putting the antenna service, each provider shall submit a certification by an independent professional engineer to that effect. In the event that an antenna is collocated with another antenna, the certification must provide assurances that FCC approved levels of electromagnetic radiation will not be exceeded by the collocation.

The city may require Draft Chubbuck City Code 18.13 —for 5/11/21 LUDC Public Hearing Page 25 Exhibit 1: Drat Chapter 18.13 (colored text) a technical review as part of a permitting process. The costs of the technical review shall be borne by the provider. The selection of the third party expert may be by mutual agreement between the provider and the city, or at the discretion of the city, with a provision for the provider and interested parties to comment on the proposed expert and review its qualifications. The expert review is intended to address interference and public safety issues and be a site specific review of technical aspects of the facilities or a review of the provider's methodology and equipment used and not a subjective review of the site which was selected by a provider. Based on the results of the expert review, the city may require changes to the provider's application. The expert review shall address the following: A. The accuracy and completeness of submissions; B. The applicability of analysis techniques and methodologies; C. The validity of conclusions reached; and D. Any specific technical issues designated by the city. (Ord. 535 §2, 2000) 18.13.9200: REMEDIES: A.

(Ord. 535 §2, 2000) 18.13.020: POLICY STATEMENT: The purpose of this chapter is to establish general guidelines for the siting of towers and antennas. The goals of this chapter are to: a) enhance the ability of personal wireless service providers to provide such services throughout the city quickly, effectively, and efficiently; b) encourage personal wireless service providers to locate towers and antennas in nonresidential areas; c) encourage personal wireless service providers to collocate on new and existing tower sites in order to minimize the number of towers within the city; d) encourage personal wireless service providers to locate towers and antennas, to the extent possible, in areas where the adverse impact on city residents is minimal; and e) encourage personal wireless service providers to configure towers and antennas in a way that minimizes any significant adverse visual impact. Accordingly, the city council finds that the promulgation of this chapter is warranted and necessary: A. To manage the location of towers and antennas in the city; B. To protect neighborhoods from potential adverse impacts of towers; C. To minimize adverse visual impacts of towers through careful design, siting, landscape screening, and innovative camouflaging and screening techniques; D. To accommodate an increased need for towers to serve the wireless communications needs of city residents; E.

It does not comply with conditions associated with the locality's prior zoning approval of construction or modification of the tower or base station, unless the noncompliance is due to an increase in height, increase in width, addition of cabinets, or new excavation that does not exceed the corresponding "substantial change" thresholds. 4M. Signs Prohibited: Except as set forth herein, no signs, banners or similar devices or materials may be attached to the tower, antenna support structures or antennas. ISI. While collocation and the requirements herein are encouraged, collocation shall not take precedence over the construction of shorter towers with appropriate screening. (Ord. 535 §2, 2000) 18.13.110: DESIGN CRITERIA: A. As provided above, new facilities shall be designed to accommodate collocation, unless the applicant demonstrates why such design is not feasible for economic, technical, or physical reasons. B. Facilities shall be architecturally compatible with the surrounding buildings and land uses in the zoning district and screened or otherwise integrated, through location and design, to blend in with the existing characteristics of the site. 1. Setback: A tower's setback shall be measured from the base of the tower to the property line of the parcel on which it is located. In residential districts and residential land use areas, where permitted, towers shall be set back from all property lines a distance equal to one hundred percent (100%) of tower height as measured from ground level, unless applicant demonstrates that because of design, landscaping or screening, unusual geographic limitations or other public policy considerations such a setback is unnecessary and the city, in its sole discretion, determines such a setback is not necessary. All other towers shall comply with the minimum setback requirements of the area in which they are located in all other zoning districts, unless there are unusual geographical limitations or other public policy considerations as determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the city. Such considerations shall include by way of illustration and not limitation, but are not limited to: a. Impact on adjacent properties; b. Alternative sites for personal wireless facilities; and Draft Chubbuck City Code 18.13 —for 5/11/21 LUDC Public Hearing Page 15 Exhibit 2: Draft Chapter 18.13 (complete text onlyl c. The extent to which screening and camouflaging will mitigate the effects of the personal wireless facilities. 2. Right-of-way Setback Exception: The setback requirement may be waived if the antenna and antenna support structure is located in the city right-of-way. 3. View Corridors: Due consideration shall be given so that placement of towers, antennas, and personal wireless service facilities do not obstruct or significantly diminish views. 4. Color: Towers shall have a color generally matching the surroundings or background that minimizes their visibility, unless a different color is required by the FCC or FAA. Security fencing should be colored or should be of a design which blends into the character of the existing neighborhood. S. Lights, Signals And Signs: No signals, lights, or signs shall be permitted on towers unless required by the FCC or the FAA. Should lighting be required, in cases where there are residences located within a distance which is three hundred percent (300%) of the height of the tower, then dual mode lighting shall be requested from the FAA. 6. Equipment Structures: Ground level equipment, buildings, and the tower base shall be screened from public view. All such structures shall be considered primary structures, not accessory structures. The standards for the equipment buildings are as follows: a. The maximum floor area is three hundred (300) square feet and the maximum height is twelve feet (12'). Except in unusual circumstances or for other public policy considerations the equipment building may be located no more than two hundred fifty feet (250') from the tower or antenna. Depending upon the aesthetics and other issues, the city, in its sole discretion, may approve multiple equipment structures or one or more larger structures. b. Ground level buildings shall be screened from view by landscape plantings, fencing, or other appropriate means, as specified herein or in other city ordinances, code sections or regulations. c. Equipment buildings mounted on a roof shall have a finish similar to the exterior building walls. Equipment for roof mounted antennas may also be located within the building on which the antenna is mounted. d. In instances where equipment buildings are located in residential zones, equipment buildings shall comply with setback requirements and shall be designed so as to conform in appearance with nearby residential structures. e. Equipment buildings, antenna, and related equipment shall occupy no more than twenty five percent (25%) of the total roof area of the building the facility is mounted on, which may vary in the city's sole discretion if collocation and an adequate screening structure is used. f. The use must be approved on a site plan or final development plan, as applicable. 7. Federal Requirements: All towers must meet or exceed current standards and regulations of the FAA, the FCC, and any other agency of the federal government with the authority to regulate towers and antennas. If those standards and regulations are changed, then personal wireless service providers governed by this chapter shall bring their towers and antennas into compliance with the revised standards and regulations within three (3) months of their effective date or the time lines provided by the revised standards and regulations, whichever time period is longer. The revised standards and regulations are not retroactively applicable to existing providers, unless otherwise provided or permitted by federal law. Failure to bring towers and antennas into compliance with the revised standards and regulations shall constitute grounds for the city to remove a provider's facilities at the provider's expense. Draft Chubbuck City Code 18.13 —for 5/11/21 LUDC Public Hearing Page 16 Exhibit 2: Draft Chapter 18.13 (complete text onlyl 8. Building Codes; Safety Standards: To ensure the structural integrity of towers, the owner of a tower shall ensure that it is maintained in compliance with standards contained in applicable city building codes, and the applicable FCC standards for towers, and other standards that are published by the-ECIA Electrons ("EIA"), as amended from time to time. If, upon inspection, the city concludes that a tower fails to comply with such codes and standards and constitutes a danger to persons or property, then upon notice being provided to the owner of the tower, the owner shall have thirty (30) days to bring the tower into compliance with such standards. If the owner fails to bring its tower into compliance within thirty (30) days, the city may remove the tower at the owner's expense. If the structure is determined by the city to pose an imminent danger to the public, the city shall be entitled to abate the danger through the processes and according to the timetables of the international building code and the 1997 uniform code for the abatement of dangerous buildings. 9. Structural Design: Towers shall be constructed to the EIA ECIA standards, which may be amended from time to time, and to all applicable construction/building codes. Further, any improvements or additions to existing towers shall require submission of site plans stamped by a professional engineer which demonstrate compliance with the E4A-ECIA standards and all other good industry practices. The plans shall be submitted and reviewed at the time building permits are requested. The antenna and its support structure shall be designed to withstand a wind force of one hundred (100) miles per hour without the use of supporting guywires. 10. Antenna Support Structure Safety: The applicant shall demonstrate that the proposed antenna and support structure is safe and the surrounding areas will not be negatively affected by support structure failure, falling ice, or other debris or interference. All support structures shall be fitted with anticlimbing devices, as approved by the manufacturers. 11. Tower And Antenna Height: The applicant shall demonstrate that the tower and antenna is the minimum height required to function satisfactorily; provided additional height beyond the minimum may be allowed if necessary to accommodate collocation. No tower or antenna that is taller than this minimum height shall be approved unless necessary to accommodate collocation. No tower or mount shall exceed one hundred feet (100') in any park, industrial zone or commercial zone. Towers in residential areas are not allowed unless integrated with another structure. A variance from the height limit may be granted if the applicant can show by clear and convincing evidence that the additional height is necessary to provide adequate service to the residents of the city and no other alternative is available. 12. Required Parking: If the cell site is fully automated, adequate paved parking shall be required for maintenance workers. If the site is not automated, arrangements for adequate off street parking shall be made and documentation thereof provided to the city. 13. Tower Separation: In no case shall towers be located closer than five hundred feet (500') from another tower whether it is owned or utilized by applicant or another provider, unless the city designates areas where multiple towers can be located in closer proximity. 14. Antenna Criteria: Antennas on or above a structure shall be subject to the following: a. The antenna shall be as architecturally compatible as reasonably possible, with the building and wall on which it is mounted, and shall be designed and located so as to minimize any adverse aesthetic impact. b. The antenna shall be mounted on a wall of an existing building in a configuration as flush to the wall as technically possible and shall not project above the wall on which it is mounted unless it must be for technical reasons. In no event shall an antenna project more than sixteen feet (16') above the roofline including parapets. Draft Chubbuck City Code 18.13 —for 5/11/21 LUDC Public Hearing Page 17 Exhibit 2: Draft Chapter 18.13 (complete text onlyl c. The antenna shall be constructed, painted, or fully screened to match as closely as possible the color and texture of the building and wall on which it is mounted. d. The antenna may be attached to an existing conforming mechanical equipment enclosure which projects above the roof of the building, but may not project any higher than the enclosure. e. If an accessory equipment shelter is present, it must blend with the surrounding buildings in architectural character and color. f. The structure must be architecturally and visually (color, size, bulk) compatible with surrounding existing buildings, structures, vegetation, and uses. Such facilities will be considered architecturally and visually compatible if they are camouflaged to disguise the facility. g. Site location and development shall preserve the preexisting character of the site as much as possible. Existing vegetation should be preserved or improved, and disturbance of the existing topography of the site should be minimized, unless such disturbance would result in less visual impact of the site on the surrounding area. The effectiveness of visual mitigation techniques shall be evaluated by the city, in the city's sole discretion. h. In addition to the other requirements of this chapter, on buildings thirty feet (30') or less in height, the antenna may be mounted on the roof if the following additional criteria are satisfied: (1) The city finds that it is not technically possible or aesthetically desirable to mount the antenna on a wall. (2) No portion of the antenna or base station causes the height of the building to exceed the limitations set forth herein. (3) The antenna or antennas and related base stations cover no more than an aggregate total of twenty five percent (25%) of the roof area of a building, which may vary in the city's sole discretion, if collocating and an adequate screening structure is used. (4) Roof mounted antenna and related base stations are completely screened from view by materials that are consistent and compatible with the design, color, and materials of the building. (5) No portion of the antenna may exceed sixteen feet (16') above the height of the existing building. i. If a proposed antenna is located on a building or a lot subject to a site review, approval is required prior to the issuance of a building permit. j. No antenna shall be permitted on property designated as an individual landmark or as a part of a historic district, unless such antenna has been approved in accordance with city ordinances and regulations. k. No personal wireless service provider or lessee or agent thereof shall fail to cooperate in good faith to accommodate collocation with competitors. If a dispute arises about the feasibility of collocating, the city may require a third party technical study, at the expense of either or both parties, to resolve the dispute. 1. No personal wireless service provider or lessee shall fail to assure that its antenna complies at all times with the current applicable FCC standards. After installation, but prior to putting the antenna service, each provider shall submit a certification by an independent professional engineer to that effect. In the event that an antenna is collocated with another antenna, the certification must provide assurances that FCC approved levels of electromagnetic radiation will not be exceeded by the collocation. m. Antennas shall comply with FCC regulations to minimize interference with the reception of any other communications signals including public safety, television, and radio broadcast signals.

This proposal is related to another annexation that was approved last year for the Bilycu Estates subdivision. That annexation was a fairly narrow strip of land along the Angela Street alignment, and the pasture area east of the horse banl to the north. When the engineer / surveyor Was preparing the subdivision, it was discovered that the annexation did not include enough land for the new lots. This second annexation is about 12 feet wide and is intended to just allow a little more land for those lots. It is not wide enough to create a new street or driveway.
