Verizon Wireless submitted a revised proposal to change zoning regulations regarding Stealth Wireless Communication Facilities. They are asking for a change that would allow health cell towers up to 75 feet tall in only the PL Public Lands Zoning District. They have also requested a change to the zoning regulations to allow stealth towers disguised as pine trees only in the PL Public Lands District. Public Lands is generally used for Schools, Libraries, Fire Stations.
As proposed, the stealth antenna house must conform to the dimensions of the object it is being disguised as, and be placed in a location that is in concert with its surroundings.
Here is a link to the SLC Open House page where you can see all the details about this request. And here are examples of what these antennas could look like. Send us a comment to go with our letter to the Planning Commission.
1861-71 South 1300 East – We have received a request for a Planned Development to construct five new three-story townhomes at this address. The applicant is requesting a reduction in lot width from 25 feet to 20 feet, and an additional five feet of height (beyond the 30-foot maximum) to accommodate railings for decks on the roofs of the proposed townhomes. Each townhome would sit on its own lot. This will be on the November 15 LUZ Zoom meeting of SHCC at 6 p.m. Some neighbors received a letter from the city, and 150 flyers will be distributed to the neighborhood with information about our Land Use and Zoning meeting. If you send me a comment, you will get a link to the meeting.
