(A) the proposed collocation or modification increases the overall height more than 10% or 10 feet (whichever is greater); or (B) the proposed collocation or modification increases the width more than 6 feet from the edge of the wireless tower or base station; or (C) the proposed collocation or modification involves the installation of any new equipment cabinets on the ground when there are no existing ground- mounted equipment cabinets; or (D) the proposed collocation or modification involves the installation of any new ground-mounted equipment cabinets that are ten percent (10%) larger in height or volume than any existing ground-mounted equipment cabinets; or (E) the proposed collocation or modification involves excavation or deployment outside the area in proximity to the structure and other transmission equipment already deployed on the ground. (3) In addition, for all towers and base stations wherever located, a substantial change occurs when: (A) the proposed collocation or modification would defeat the existing concealment elements of the support structure as determined by the Director; or (B) the proposed collocation or modification violates a prior condition of approval, provided however that the collocation need not comply with any prior condition of approval related to height, width, equipment cabinets or excavation that is inconsistent with the thresholds for a substantial change described in this section. Note: The thresholds for a substantial change outlined above are disjunctive. The failure to meet any one or more of the applicable thresholds means that a substantial change would occur. The thresholds for height increases are cumulative limits. For sites with horizontally separated deployments, the cumulative limit is measured from the originally-permitted support structure without regard to any increases in size due to wireless equipment not included in the original design. For sites with vertically separated deployments, the cumulative limit is measured from the permitted site dimensions as they existed on February 22, 2012—the date that Congress passed Section 6409(a). (z) "tower" means the same as defined by the FCC in 47 C.F.R. § 1.6100(b)(9), which defines that term as "[a]ny structure built for the sole or primary purpose of supporting any FCC-licensed or authorized antennas and their associated facilities, including structures that are constructed for wireless communications services including, but not limited to, private, broadcast, and public safety services, Eligible Facilities Requests Policy(City of Pleasanton) page 8/26
