This section sets out criteria to determine the preferred location and support structure for small wireless facilities. The City considers the most preferred location and support structure to be the least intrusive means for an applicant to provide its services to the public. Subsection (b)(1) describes roads in or adjacent to zoning areas where small wireless facilities are generally most preferred. Subsection (b)(2) provides specific locations where small wireless facilities are discouraged. It is possible for a proposed facility to be simultaneously in a "preferred" and "discouraged" location, for example, a small wireless facility on or adjacent to an arterial road in an "Industrial, Commercial & Offices" zoning area that is also within 100 feet of a residential dwelling unit. In such cases, the location shall be deemed a "discouraged" location. (b) Locations. To assist applicants, staff, and the approval authority understand and respond to the community's aesthetic preferences and values, this Section 11(b) describes preferred and discouraged locations for small wireless facilities in the public rights-of-way. (1) Preferred Locations.All applicants must, to the extent technically feasible and potentially available, propose new small wireless facilities in a preferred location. The following locations are all considered "preferred locations" and are ranked in order of most preferred to least preferred. Applicants must propose new facilities on parcels with the most preferred land use designation whenever technically feasible and potentially available. Road designations within the below are also ranked in order of most preferred to least preferred. Applications must include a written justification as part of their application submittal, supported by factual and verifiable evidence, that demonstrates no location with a more preferred land use or road designation is technically feasible and available.
