Small Wireless Facilities Policy (City of Pleasanton) page 30 / 47 historic resources. Any small wireless facility that adversely impacts any historic resource shall not be approved without an exception pursuant to Section 1 5. Section 13. PREAPPROVED DESIGNS (a) Preface. To expedite the review process for Small Cell Permit applications, promote uniform aesthetics in the public rights-of-way and encourage collaborative designs among applicants and the City that blend with surrounding environment, the City strongly encourages, but does not require preapproved designs. This Section 13 sets out the process to establish or repeal a preapproved design and the review procedures and findings applicable to these applications. (b) No Shot Clock Commencement. This preapproved design process, including any application submittals, conferences, meetings, or hearings, does not, and shall not be deemed to, commence any shot clocks. The procedures and requirements of this Section 13 are not intended for applications for authorization to place, construct or modify any small wireless facility. (c) Applications for Preapproved Designs. This Section 13(b) sets out the process and requirements to establish a new preapproved design for use in future applications for Small Cell Permits. (1) Application Form and Content. The Director shall prepare, publish and maintain an application form for requests to establish a preapproved design. In addition to all other requirements specified by the Director, the application shall include (A) scaled conceptual plans and drawings; (B) photo simulations that depict the proposed preapproved design in typical locations within the City; and (C) an application fee adopted by City Council resolution, or if no preapproved design application fee has been adopted, then the applicant must submit a signed written statement that acknowledges that the applicant will be required to submit a deposit estimated by the Director to reimburse the City for its reasonable costs incurred in connection with the application within 10 business days after the City issues a written demand for reimbursement. Additional deposits shall be required if the deposit is inadequate and must be replenished. If the deposit exceeds the actual costs, the difference will be returned to the applicant. (2) Pre-Application Conferences. The Director shall provide prospective applicants with the opportunity to schedule and attend a pre -application conference with City staff. The pre-application conference is intended to streamline the review process through informal discussion that includes, without limitation, any latent issues in connection with the proposed preapproved design, such as compliance with generally applicable rules for public health and safety; potential stealth or concealment issues or concerns (if applicable); coordination with other City departments and/or divisions responsible for application review; and application completeness issues.
