Explanation

Council Variance Application: CV06-063

APPLICANT: New Par dba Verizon Wireless c/o Pike Legal Group PLLC; P.O. Box 369; Shepherdsville, KY 40165.

PROPOSED USE: Monopole telecommunication antenna.

NORTH EAST AREA COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Approval.

CITY DEPARTMENTS' RECOMMENDATION: Approval. The applicant requests a variance to allow a telecommunications antenna in the I, Institutional District on a 135 foot replacement monopole. The proposed tower would be 22 feet from the R-1, Residential District to the west where a 270 foot separation would normally be required. The site is within the Northeast Area Plan (2007) which calls single-family dwellings at this site. Deviation is supported as the site already contains an existing electric substation. Furthermore, Staff supports the application because the applicants propose to locate this structure within an existing electrical substation with existing tall poles rather than introducing a new tower in the middle of a neighborhood comprised of residences which may be negatively impacted.
