<br />THERESE PISTER PEARSE, TRUST / VERIZON WIRELESS
<br />1. The proposed use is consistent with the goals, policies, standards, and maps of the General Plan, any
<br />applicable Master Plan, Special Purpose Plan, Specific Plan, and Planned Development zone; and any
<br />other applicable plan adopted by the County.
<br />This finding can be made because the proposed Telecommunications Tower and ancillary
<br />equipment may be conditionally permitted in the AG -40 (General Agriculture, 40 acre
<br />minimum) zone with an approved Administrative Use Permit application. The project site
<br />has a General Plan designation of A/G (Agriculture General), and the AG -80 zone is an
<br />implementing zone for this designation. Therefore, the proposed Telecommunication Tower
<br />is consistent with the goals, policies, standards and maps of the General Plan, and there
<br />are no Master Plans, Specific Plans, and/or Special Purpose Plans in the project vicinity.
<br />2. Adequate utilities, roadway improvements, sanitation, water supply, -drainage, and other necessary
<br />facilities have been provided, and the proposed improvements are properly related to existing and
<br />proposed roadways.
<br />• This finding can be made because there are no new utility or roadway improvements
<br />required. A Telecommunications Tower is an unmanned facility and will not impact existing
<br />public utilities. -This project will not require the use of public water, or a septic system -and
<br />all storm water will be retained on site. The proposed protect will be accessed from east N.
<br />Alpine Road.
<br />3. The site is physically suitable for the type of development and for the intensity of development.
<br />This finding- can be made because the 1 -1.34 -acre project -site is of adequate size to
<br />accommodate the proposed use and the Site Plan shows that -aii-setbacks, and other
<br />requirements of the Development Title can be met.
<br />4- The location, size, design, and operating characteristics of the proposed use will be compatible
<br />with and will not adversely affect the livability or appropriate development of abutting properties
<br />and the surrounding neighborhood.
<br />• This finding can be made because the proposed Telecommunications Tower encompasses
<br />a small area and is exempt from environmental review pursuant to Section 1.5303, Class 3.
<br />The proposed project is a compatible use in the AC -40 zone -and is not anticipated- to
<br />adversely affect the livability or appropriate development of abutting properties and the
<br />surrounding neighborhood.
<br />5. The proposed use will not create any nuisances arising from the emission of odor, dust, gas, noise,
<br />vibration, smoke, heat, or glare at a level exceeding ambient conditions.
<br />This finding can be made because the proposed use is not anticipated to create any
<br />nuisances related to the emission of odor, dust, gas, noise, vibration, smoke, heat or glare
<br />at a level exceeding ambient conditions with the inclusion of the proposed Conditions of
<br />Approval. Requirements from the Planning Division and Building Division will address
<br />noise, vibration, and glare, while the County Fire Division has provided conditions to
<br />prevent smoke and heat. Additionally, the Department of Public Works, Environmental
<br />Health Department, andthe San Joaquin Council of Governments will ensure that the project
<br />is developed to the appropriate standards to avoid creating a nuisance.
