verifiable evidence, demonstrating that no preferred support structure is technically feasible and potentially available. If a small wireless facility must be installed on a discouraged support structure, the applicant shall use the least- discouraged support structure that is technically feasible and potentially available. The following support structures are discouraged, and ordered from least discouraged to most discouraged: (A) existing or replacement non-pole concealment structures, such as monuments, kiosks, bus shelters and other street furniture; (B) new, non-replacement metal or composite streetlight poles; (C) new, non-replacement metal or composite concealment poles for small wireless facilities; (3) Prohibited Support Structures. Small wireless facilities shall not be installed on the following prohibited support structures: (A) decorative poles and decorative streetlights; (B) the Main Street "Pleasanton Arch"; (C) traffic signals, signs, poles, cabinets and related devices and structures; (D) new, non-replacement wood poles; (E) any utility pole scheduled or reasonably anticipated to be scheduled for removal within 18 months from the time the Director acts on the application for such pole; (d) New and Replacement Pole Locations. All new and replacement poles must be: (1) if a replacement pole, located as close to the removed pole's location as possible not to exceed five feet; (2) aligned with the other existing poles along the public right-of-way; (3) designed to resemble existing poles, including an overall height that is no greater than the replaced pole or, if a new pole, the nearest adjacent pole; and (4) compliant with all applicable standards and specifications issued by the City, which may include, without limitation, requirements related to aesthetics, materials and safety. Notwithstanding anything in this subsection to the contrary, the Director may approve a deviation from the foregoing requirements if, in the Director's discretion, an alternative placement location would result in a more aesthetically desirable outcome consistent with the goals of this policy. All replaced poles must be removed within 24 hours after the replacement pole has been erected and any utilities have been cutover. (e) Encroachments Over Private Property.
