A
Good
afternoon
this
is
the
Thursday
January
fifth
2017
meeting
of
the
Athens
City
Planning
Commission.
There
are
four
members
present
one
who
is
not
here.
Is
there
anyone
who
intends
to
speak
to
the
Commission
today
in
the
audience?
Ok
can
just
raise
your
right
hand,
and
do
you
swear
to
tell
the
truth
to
the
Planning
Commission?
As
you
know
it.
Thank
you
very
much.

A
A
C
Good
afternoon,
commissioners,
this
is
a
project.
Description
is
a
modification
on
the
existing
tower.
Sba
is
proposing
to
add
three
antennas
and
one
remote
radio
unit
to
an
existing
190
foot
self-supporting
tower
this
newest
request.
New
request
involves
modifying
to
the
platform
at
190
foot
level.
On
the
tower.
The
change
will
add
five
feet
to
the
existing
height,
increasing
it
to
195
no
changes.
So
the
footprint
of
the
tower
will
be
made.
C
It
was
determined
that
the
new
antenna
attachment
will
not
add
to
any
visual
impact
at
a
one-mile
radius,
I
drove
out
there
and
looked
at
the
antenna
mile
out,
and
it's
only
going
to
be
five
feet.
It's
basically
little
excuse
me
little
antennas
that
are
just
going
to
be
attached
to
it
proper
supporting
documents
provided
for
the
structural
analysis
of
the
wind
and
foundation
requirements.
C
After
a
review
of
the
documents,
it
was
determined
it
met
with
the
code
requirements
under
title
43

applicant

A
C
Roy
yes,
this
is
a
communications,
but
I'll
go
ahead.
Reading
the
synopsis.
This
is
a
tyler
20
lots
place.
The
request
for
lots
played
on
2131
east
state
street
in
athens.
Lot
split
consists
of
two
parcels:
one
parcel
consisting
of
3.7
91
acres,
which
meets
lot
split
requirements
and
the
parcel
of
2.0
51
acres
in
which
the
applicant
will
require
with
the
depth
ratio
variants.
Parcels
have
the
required
road
frontage
and
the
splits
are
creating
any
flag
or
laying
lot
parcels.
C
These
2.05
one
split
will
provide
the
potential
for
a
future
lem
s,
development
site
and
the
lot
splits
are
providing
275
of
road
frontage
for
the
3.79
one
acre
parcel
and
125
feet
of
road
frontage
for
the
2.05
one-acre
parcel
off
the
service
road.
The
variance
needed
is
for
the
2.0
52
acres
with
the
depth
of
702
and
feet
and
width
of
125
feet.
This
does
not
meet
the
three
two
one
with
a
depth
requirement.
I
We
aren't
under
contract,
so
I
know
the
papers
here
today,
so
just
make
sure
that
we're
all
clear
and
we're
where
we
are,
but
it's
just
something
that
we
would
like
to
offer
them.
We
look
down
through
and
kind
of
have
the
lot
pinned
from
a
land,
sir,
a
surveyor
perspective
in
case.
We
want
to
obviously
build
in
the
future
we
didn't
want
to
give
up
all
and
to
the
west
of
the
building,
although
that
would
be
sometime
in
the
very
distant
future.
I
We
don't
have
any
specific
plans
to
do
build
out
right
now,
but
we
want
to
make
sure
that
we
have
expansion
opportunities
in
the
future.
So,
therefore,
when
we
looked
at
the
footprint
that
EMS
was
originally
looking
at
of
a
potential
building
site
the
land
that
we
have
carved
out,
there,
that's
120
feet
of
road
frontage
and
goes
back.
Two
hundred
and
seventy-five
feet,
which
is
approximately
almost
as
big
as
a
football
field
that
they
can
accommodate
the
station
that
they
would
need
over
there.
I
E
I
I
E
D
I
H
F
E
I
That
need
that
specific
parcel.
The
only
reason
that
we
have
penned
Italy.
That
middle
thing
is
for
the
EMS.
We
have
we're
not
doing
any
other
talks
to
do
anything
with
that
and
if
it
needed
to
be
contingent,
I
don't
I
don't
care,
I
mean
that
that's
why
we're
doing
it
the,
but
we
are
expending
money
to
do
that.
We
did
surveys
and-
and
we'll
do
we'll-
have
to
do
the
deep
rep
and
those
things.
I
But
if,
if
the
ems
thing
didn't
work
out,
I
would
think
that
you
know
our
plan
would
be
and
it
would
go
through
my
office,
so
there's
no
other
planning
going
on,
but
we
would
just
keep
it
for
future.
Building
I
did
talk
to
Rick
today
and
he
said
that
he
didn't
think
and
I'm.
I
know
this
is
public
so,
but
he
didn't
think
that
they
would
be
able
to
get
anything
done
in
17
just
because
of
all
the
stuff
that
would
have
to
go
through
the
county
because
it
isn't
ultimately
his
choice.
I
E
F
F
G
A
B
A
C
E
E
But
when
I
delve
into
our
title,
4343
14
that
speaks
to
lots
and
setbacks
has
a
shall
that
all
proposed
towers
and
any
other
proposed
wireless
telecommunications
facilities
structures
shall
be
set
back
from
a
budding
parcels
by
the
greater
the
following
distance,
equal
to
the
height
of
the
proposed
tower
or
wireless
telecommunication
facility
structure,
plus
ten
percent
of
the
height
of
the
tower
or
the
existing
setback
requirements
of
the
underlying
zoning
district.
Whichever
is
greater,
that's.
F
F
B
B
F
B
H
B
H
So
it
was
16
feet
pions
about
180,
then
oh
I'm,
only
one
member
but
I
would
be
adverse
to
granting
a
variance
from
the
distance
requirement,
given
the
property
and
so
long.
The.
E
Other
question
I
had-
and
you
may
not
be
on
the
answer
and
I
apologize
again,
but
either
an
application
for
a
new
town
or
eight
states
and
I
read
the
narrative
from
the
previous
that
copies
of
written
requests
and
responses
for
sure
you
shall
be
provided
to
the
city
and
the
application.
So
they,
where.
B
C
No
you're
thinking
of
the
antennas,
normally
we
don't
have
anybody
come
in
for
the
antennas.
This
is
a
tower
and
genuine.
They
will
be
here
when
they
for
the
actual
case
file.
Right
now,
we're
just
communicating
that
we
presented
the
map
to
get
approval
from
you,
so
they
could
go
ahead
and
do
the
tests
with
the
balloons.
I
guess.
So,
if
you
have
additional
questions
he
gave
you
can.
E
B
E
B
Say
the
Planning
Commission
has
concerns
and
they're
aware
that
they're
the
applicants
going
to
need
a
variance
that
the
Planning
Commission
should
probably
address
those
concerns
with
prior
to
investing
in
balloon
tests
and
other
things
that
you
completed
right.
Those
are
going
to
be
caustic
right,
cost
you
to
the
to
an
applicant.
So.
E
H
Stomped,
hey,
since
you
were
God
and
you're
allowed
to
go,
but
I
believe
that
they
seemed
amenable.
They
had
other
options
with
respect
to
location
as
a
tower
as
they
discussed
with
us,
and
they
were
they.
They
weren't
rigid,
as
the
tower
will
be
in
their
proposal.
I
mean
I
thought
they
were
flailing,
not
flailing
flexing
around
myself.
I
thought
we
didn't
lose
Johnny.
F
C
A
Area
could
work
with
the
high
style
right
because
they
were
still
in
consultation
with
the
fairground
board.
Correct,
because
I
understand
remember
from
the
meeting
that
the
gentleman
said
they
still
had
some
issues
that
they
want
it
to
work
out
as
well.
That's
correct!
Okay,
although
they
had
a
preference
in
terms
of
the
height
right
people.
E
C
A
E
Of
course,
you
heard
my
question
about
the
show
and
under
4307
see
it
says
the
city
may
reject
applications,
not
meeting
the
requirements
stated
herein,
so
those
kind
of
go
together,
hand
in
hand
right
and
you're
gonna.
This
is
where
I'm
confused,
because
of
the
way
that
it's
worded
and
they
haven't
applied
yet
that
under
4307
G,
the
applicant
must
provide
documentation
to
verify
the
right
to
proceed
as
a
proposed
as
proposed
on
the
site.
This
required
an
executed
copy
of
the
lease
with
a
landowner
or
landlord
or
a
signed
letter.
Acknowledging.
C
I
think
the
commissioners
can
appreciate
that
there's
a
five-thousand-dollar
non-refundable
fee,
so
they're
trying
to
get
a
lot
of
their
answers.
Their
questions
answered
before
they
submit
their
final
application.
So
I
think
that's
why
we're
proceeding
in
this
manner
but
I,
don't
think
they're
adverse
to
attending
another
meeting
to
answer
any
additional
person
the
Commission's
may
have.
E
E
B
E
The
computer
under
p1,
the
computer,
generated
his
own
invisibility
map
at
a
minimum
of
one
mile
radius
without
the
foliage,
so
they're
good
timing
for
that
pictorial.
Two
representations
at
the
before
and
after
from
key
few
points,
both
inside
and
outside
insensitive
and
says,
and
from
any
other
location
where
the
site
is
visible
to
a
large
number
of
visitors.
I
would
contend
the
fairgrounds.
E
It's
a
large
number
of
visitors
once
two
weeks
a
year,
but
you
know
I,
don't
know
how
it
will
effectively
screen
under
q
TC
the
access
road
turn
around
space
and
parking
for
assuring
emergency
in
service
access
and
I
want
to
point
out
to
commissioners
and
I
just
discovered
this
under
W
a
pre-application
meaning
shall
also
include
a
site
visit
if
there
has
not
been
a
priority
site
visit
for
the
requested
site.
So
either
we
schedule
a
site
visit
and
go
on
site
and
and
make
it
public.
E
A
D
E
E
D
D
F
F
B
A
H
B
Next
regular
meeting
we
can
expedite
it
for
any
cases
and
if
there's
no
cases
and
you
can
drive
up,
we
have
a
site
visit
that
started
looking
for
me,
whoa
45,
or
something
like
that
and
disband
the
meeting
from
there.
Okay
mm-hmm
that
way,
it's
already
in
line
with
Patti's
notification
process.
Okay,
why.
E
I
could
keep
going
right,
but
basically
it's
every
single
component
in
here
to
be
checked
correct,
because
even
in
4309,
it's
titled
shared
use
of
wireless
telecommunication
facilities
and
other
structures.
It
says
the
city
as
opposed
to
the
construction
of
a
new
tower,
shall
prefer
locating
on
existing
towers
or
other
structure
without
increasing
the
height,
and
that
this
applicant
shall
submit
a
comprehensive
report
inventory
in
these
existing
towers
and
other
suitable
structures
within
two
miles
of
the
location
of
the
rain
Rose
new
tower,
unless
they
can
show
that
some
other
distances
more
reasonable.
B
E
A
I
think
they're,
looking
more
in
terms
of
especially
with
the
height
that
they
were
talking
about,
that
they
would
prefer.
Is
that
they're,
seeing
this
Morris
future
listen,
and
you
know
they're,
basically
saying
that
this
current
site
was
overloaded
or
getting
overloaded
right,
plus
the
fact
that
additional
companies
will
want
to
piggyback
on
which
is
again
the
reason
for
the
Bogota
for
the
height
of
the
tower
versus
what
the
fairgrounds
had
preferred.
We're.
E
B
You'll,
not
a
death
monish,
it's
very
cut,
it's
very
complicated
and
its
towers
of
this
nature
are
not
in
general
terms
of
welcoming
communities
and
then
there's
a
balance
with
what
everybody's
expectations
are
with
those
devices
that
everybody
in
this
room
is
as
in
their
pockets
right
now
and
what
we
want
out
of
those
and
what
they're?
Actually
they
are
going
to
do
for
us
down
the
road.
I
mean
it's,
it's
a
it's
a
very
difficult
balance.
C
But
before
we
move
on
this,
communication
was
concerning
the
map.
You
know
with
the
with
the
positions
that
they
would
review
from.
Does
that
meet
the
commissioners
requirements,
because
these
are
the
ten
areas
that
we
feel
within
a
one-mile
radius
progressing.
The
code
is
that
would
be
advantageous
to
be
viewed
from
so
if
they
decide
to
do
their
balloon
tests
after
our
next
meeting,
then
they
would
use
this
map
to
identify
those
from
those
areas.
A
H
E
B
B
H
H
C
H
C
F
A
Would
it
be
better
for
us,
rather
than
asking
them
to
well
if
they
wanted
to
come
down
here
on
the
19th,
to
answer
any
questions
when
we
were
out
there,
but
just
as
far
as
it
gives
us
the
opportunity,
then
to
generate
the
questions
that
we
would
either
pass
on
to
them,
they're
good
with
that
or
get
in
touch
with
them
as
far
as
okay?
Here
definitely
is
the
the
final
listing
of
questions
that
we
have
going
forward
before
you
submit
the
application.
E
A
D
E
A
H
D
H
B
E
A
Need
to
know,
I
think,
I
think,
in
terms
of
the
photo
sites
that
you've
got
you're
proposing,
I
think
it
makes
sense.
You
have
a
balance
like
you
know,
as
far
as
knowing
the
various
areas
that
you're
talking
about,
I
think
you're
covering
a
lot
of
the
balance
between
higher
and
lower
facility
or
land
site.
So
I
think
that
makes
sense
there.

Minders,
what
I
heard
was
five
editions
blue
line
area
filled
to
the
west
of
the
hospital
south
of
jefferson,
the
hospital
area
parking
lot,
I'm
assuming
west
elementary
area
and
the
university
commons
apartments,
and
I
assume
we
would
want
to
be
on
the
south
side
of
university
of
commons
apartments
closest
to
the
tower
okay.
I
think
we've
got
it.
A
A
Okay,
happy
New
Year
to
you,
then
see
you
mr.
sir
Roy
same
here
getting
caught
up.
Okay!
Thank
you.
There
is
no
one
in
our
live
audience
to
address
the
Planning,
Commission
announcements
and
other
business.
A
Okay,
anything
else
with
our
business
concluded
the
meeting
stands
adjourned.
Thank
you.
