Seconded by Samantha <br />12 Cabe. <br />13 <br />14 VOTE: Unanimous <br />15 <br />16 Samantha Cabe: Alright. Page 156 of the abstract includes use specific standards <br />17 5.10.8(13)(4)(f)(g)(h)(i)(m)(j). Are any of those? <br />18 <br />19 James Bryan: I didn't find any the general standards on 160. <br />20 <br />21 Samantha Cabe: Alright, so we can consider the use specific standards. Do I have a motion to <br />22 adopt Staff recommendations with regard to use specific standards set forth on pages 155, 156, <br />23 157, 158, and 159? Or if there's any discussion we can... <br />24 <br />25 Karen Barrows: Didn't we just do 155? <br />26 <br />27 Barry Katz: Yeah, just 156 through 159. <br />28 <br />29 Samantha Cabe: Ok. 156 through 159. Is there a motion to accept Staff with regard to use specific <br />30 standards? <br />31 <br />32 Motion made by to adopt Staff recommendations with regard to Use Specific Standards on pages <br />33 156, 157, 158, and, 159 based on the comments in our records that the use and evidence. <br />34 Seconded by Karen Barrows. <br />35 <br />36 VOTE: Unanimous <br />37 <br />38 Samantha Cabe: And now, the ultimate questions. The general standards, with regard. Let's do <br />39 these one at a time. We are required to find that the use will or will not maintain or promote the <br />40 public's health, safety, and general welfare if located where proposed and developed and <br />41 operated according to the plan as submitted. Is there any discussion as to whether the Applicant <br />42 has met this burden? I will read to you the Opponents position on that. The Opponent states that <br />43 petitions in opposition to the application for telecommunications facility Special Use Permit made <br />44 part of the record, these are the supports for finding no, and testimony of Evan Gwen regarding <br />45 potential adverse impact on wildlife and plant life along adjacent wildlife corridor, as well as <br />46 unknown long term health hazards. Without necessarily finding that they have met that burden 1 <br />47 will say that I do believe we've received into evidence impact statements on the environment and <br />48 the wildlife, as well as the Statute prohibits us from finding that there's a health hazard with regard <br />49 to the EMT's related to the cell tower. But otherwise, does anyone have a motion or want to <br />50 discuss whether the Applicant has met their burden? <br />OC Board of Adjustment — 12/12/16 Page 149 of 156 <br />
