Staff Report to the L97-0061 Planning Commission Western Wireless/Bonsai Northwest FINDINGS Vicinity/Site Information Project Description The applicant is requesting Planning Commission approval for a Conditional Use Permit to install a Personal Communication Services (PCS) base station facility for a wireless communication system at the subject property. The proposal, represented on Attachments A and B, includes the installation of operating equipment on a pad adjacent to the east side of the building. This equipment processes telephone signals and transfers power from utilities to operate radio equipment. The array consists of two individual antenna mounted on the north side of the existing building and one antenna mounted on the east side of the existing building. These antennae are represented in Attachments B and C. The two - antenna array on the north side will be bracketed along the north facade of the building. These antennae will rise approximately even with and no higher than the roof top and measure approximately 6 feet in height, 3 inches in width and 6 inches in depth. The antenna on the east facade will be bracketed in the same manner and same location as the other antennae. Existing Development The site is located at 5021 S. 144th St. at the office building known as Bonsai Northwest. Surrounding Land Uses Surrounding land uses consist primarily of single-family residences zoned Low Density Residential (LDR). Access Access to the equipment room will be made through a secured gate. CONDITIONAL USE CRITERIA The proposed project must conform with criteria detailed in Zoning Code section 18.64.050, (1-5), concerning Conditional Use Permits: 3 Staff Report to the L97-0061 Planning Commission Western Wireless/Bonsai Northwest (1) The proposed use will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity of the proposed use or in the district in which the subject property is located. Applicant has proposed placing all operating equipment in a locked and gated area on the east side of the building, to limit potential contact with unauthorized individuals. The applicant has proposed placing the antennae on the north and east facades of the existing building, eliminating the need for an additional support structure. The proposed antennae and related equipment are telecommunications equipment that fall within the safety parameters set by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). (2) The proposed use shall meet or exceed the performance standards that are required in the district it will occupy. Performance standards that would apply to development in this zone, including setback, height restrictions, landscaping or design are not applicable to this proposal, as the antennae's placement on wall does not extend above the existing building. (3) The proposed development shall be compatible generally with the surrounding land uses in terms of traffic and pedestrian circulation, building and site design. As with similar uses, the PCS system may generate 24 trips per day during construction period and, following completion, 1 trip per month for maintenance. To mitigate the project's impact on the existing building and site, the applicant has proposed that the antennae will be located along the building facades and painted to blend in with their surroundings. All exposed electrical wiring will be located in a covered raceway along the associated facade and painted to match the building. All radio operating equipment will be located at the side of the building on a screened and gated concrete pad. (4) The proposed use shall be in keeping with the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Land Use Policy Plan This project must comply with the following Comprehensive Plan policies and meet necessary Zoning Code regulations. 12.1.34. Actively coordinate project implementation with individual utilities based upon Tukwila's Comprehensive Plan and development regulations. When completed, the project will use existing electrical services provided to the building. The applicant will extend utilities to service the equipment area. The applicant will secure electrical service to operate the ground equipment and telephone service from U.S. West for operation of an on -site telephone. 4 ,. z 1.—W' 00 j W= J CO L, W 0' L Q d: w zF.. �0 w~ moo. 2W wz 0— F== 0 z Staff Report to the Planning Commission L97-0061 Western Wireless/Bonsai Northwest 12.1.36. Encourage utilities to consolidate facilities and minimize visual impacts of facilities where technically feasible. Implementation strategies for this policy include the use of shared infrastructure, use of existing structures and installation of telephone switching facilities in buildings compatible with the surrounding area. The applicant is not proposing a facility that will be shared with any other PCS providers, however the antennae is located on an existing building and not a new structure. As previously indicated, the applicant will paint the antennae to blend with the building. All ground equipment will be screened. 5) All measures have been taken to minimize the possible adverse impacts which the proposed use may have on the area in which it is located. The applicant has proposed placing the antennae on the facades to avoid blocking any views of surrounding property owners, who would otherwise have their views impaired by rooftop antennae. The antennae array will be painted a color that will help them blend in with the other materials on the facade. Again, applicant also has attempted to screen all ground equipment. CONCLUSIONS The Planning Commission, pursuant to Tukwila Municipal Code (TMC) Section 18.108.040, hereby makes the following findings and conclusions under the city's Conditional Use Permit criteria (TMC 18.64.050) (1) The proposed use will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare... Potentially hazardous operating equipment is inaccessible to the public. The associated technology is within federal safety guidelines. The antennae will be placed on the facade and painted to mitigate aesthetic impacts. (2) The proposed criteria shall meet or exceed the performance standards... The project is within applicable height limitations. There are no other applicable standards for the project. (3) The proposed development shall be compatible generally with the surrounding... Traffic generated during development and operation is minimal. The equipment will be screened from public view. The antennae are located on the facades and painted to blend with the building. z <• Etw U, U0. cn W = J F- N LL w 0 a.

The project will have the necessary electrical services for its operation. The applicant will not be sharing infrastructure with other providers. Visual impacts to surrounding are minimized by locating antennae on building facade, out of view of neighboring properties to the north. (5) All measures have been taken to minimize the possible adverse impacts... All operating equipment will be contained in a secured and screened area. All antennae will be located on the facade of the building and painted to blend with other materials on the facade. RECOMMENDATIONS Staff recommends that the Conditional Use Permit be approved. `•.

The proposed use will not be materially detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to the property or improvements in the vicinity of the proposed use or in the district in which the subject property is situated. The proposed use will not in any way be detrimental to the public welfare. To the contrary, wireless communications have been proven to be a significant resource in times of emergency. The relatively small size of this installation coupled with its co -location upon an existing facility will substantially mitigate its potential visual impact on neighboring properties. All construction activities will comply with OSHA; all constructed facilities will meet or exceed UBC guidelines and City of Tukwila building codes. All potentially dangerous (electric) equipment will be locked within a cabinet inside a fenced enclosure, and thus inaccessible to the public. Western Wireless will operate this facility, per the requirements of its license, within all applicable state and Federal safety standards. 2. The proposed use shall meet or exceed the performance standards that are required in the district it will occupy. The proposed use will meet or exceed all applicable performance standards. All construction activities will be completed by properly licensed local contractors, who are familiar with all applicable codes and standards. 3. The proposed development shall be compatible generally with the surrounding land uses in terms of traffic and pedestrian circulation, building and site plan. Located on a commercially zoned parcel, Western's proposed building -mounted facility will be compatible with surrounding land uses in that: a) any vehicular traffic created will be minimal; b) it will not create any additional pedestrian traffic; and c) it will not adversely impact architectural and structural elements already present at this site. Access to the site will be via an existing roadway: South 144`h St. Minimal, short-term traffic will be generated by Westem's construction and installation activities. Once construction is complete, there will be one scheduled visit per month to the unstaffed facility for routine maintenance. The unstaffed site will not generate any pedestrian traffic. All antennas will be painted to match the existing building. Associated radio equipment will be concealed behind an existing wood slat fence on a new concrete pad. 4. The proposed use shall be keeping with the goals and policies of the Comprehensive Land Use Policy Plan. The proposed use is intended to provide wireless communications services for the citizens, businesses and travelers within the City of Tukwila. Western proposes to accomplish this by locating and camouflaging their antennae on an existing structure. This proposal complies with the Comprehensive Plan's goal of encouraging utilities to consolidate facilities and minimize visual impacts of facilities where technically feasible ( iggEtR.1.36). err?

All measures shall be taken to minimize the possible adverse impacts which the proposed use may have on the area in which it is located. Western has taken numerous steps to minimize this facility's potential adverse impacts. This proposal will result in a wireless transceiver with the least possible impact on surrounding properties. Three panel antennae will be flush -mounted on an existing building. Associated radio equipment will be located behind an existing wood slat fence on a new pad next to the building, and will not be visible from neighboring properties. The resulting facility will have little or no net visual or land use impacts on surrounding properties. Bonsai Plants is the only technically feasible collocation alternative in this area: a different site would require the installation of a new antenna support structure and attendant infrastructure.

Associated radio support equipment will be located outside on a 10'x8', at -grade concrete pad adjacent to this building. More detail is provided in the accompanying site plan. The location of this site is ideal because it allows digital wireless coverage for the citizens and businesses of Tukwila, as well as travelers along the 1-5 corridor. Current land uses in the vicinity include a variety of commercial and retail enterprises, transportation thoroughfares and, at a significant distance from the site, residential properties. Western has been diligent in selecting a site that will have the least possible impact on the surrounding neighborhoods. Views from adjoining properties will not be substantially impacted, if at all. Below is the information required for submittal of a Conditional Use Permit: 1. Master Application (12 copies) 2. Site Plan and Building Elevations (12 copies) 3.
