(A) All wireless communication facilities shall submit the following information:

(1) All PWSF applications will go through the normal pre-application process as outlined in Chapter 18.15 SLCC;

(2) A map of the service area for this facility;

(3) A scaled site plan indicating the location, type and height of the proposed facility, mounting style and number of antennas on each facility, on-site land uses and zoning, adjacent land uses and zoning, proposed means of access, setbacks from property lines, elevation drawings of the proposed facilities, and any other information deemed by the Zoning Administrator to be necessary to assess compliance with this title; and

(4) Each applicant for an antenna and/or a tower shall provide the City with an inventory of its existing towers, antennas, or sites approved for towers or antennas, that are within the jurisdiction boundaries of the City, the City’s planning area as determined by the San Luis General Plan, and within one mile of the City’s border. The inventory shall include specific information about the location, height, range, design of each antenna and/or tower, and the owner/operator of the existing facilities if known. This inventory shall also include a one-year build-out plan for all other wireless communications facilities within the City planning area.

(B) All new towers or poles shall also provide the following information:

(1) A map that shows any personal wireless antenna monopoles or towers, within a mile radius of the proposed site that are existing or are currently under construction;

(2) Description of any efforts to co-locate the proposed facility on one of the monopoles or towers that currently exist, or are under construction. Provide engineering information or letters from the owners of the existing monopoles describing why co-location is not a possibility;

(3) Description of detailed efforts to locate the proposed facility on an existing vertical element, such as a building or a pole, that is comparable to the height of the proposed facility. Include a map of the sites;

(4) The applicant shall demonstrate that the engineering of a proposed new tower or pole and the placement of ground-mounted facilities will accommodate other providers’ facilities. The owner of the tower or pole and the property on which it is located must certify that the tower or pole is available for use by another wireless telecommunications provider on a reasonable and nondiscriminatory basis;

(5) Description of efforts to blend personal wireless facilities with the surrounding area, including the process for arriving at the color for the proposed pole or tower. Describe the efforts to minimize the diameter of the pole and the mass of the tower supporting the proposed facility; and

(6) Illustrate the method of fencing and the finished texture and color and, if applicable, the method of camouflage and illumination.

(C) All new rooftop- and building-mounted PWSF shall also provide the following information:

(1) Description of the type, height, mounting style, number of antennas, and method of screening or blending the facility with the building;

(2) Description of the process for arriving at the color of the personal wireless facility and the options that were explored for screening the personal wireless facility; and

(3) Description of the alternative structures used and any structural alterations that may be required to accommodate the PWSF, such as but not limited to elements that camouflage or conceal the presence of antennas or poles, if a pole is utilized to support the personal wireless facility.
