RESOLUTION #P.C. 36-2000 - Recommendation to Common Council to establish a
moratorium on wireless communications facilities pending the revision of Siting Guidelines,
Municipal Zoning Ordinances, and Comprehensive Plan. Commissioner Brodel made a
motion to approve. Commissioner Gummer seconded. Staff believes that immediate
attention should be given to updating City’s Siting guidelines and Ordinances. The current
guidelines and ordinances are outdated and complicate review process with third-party
reviews for every application. Staff believes a short-term moratorium should be placed on
new applications. FCC limits moratoriums to six months. This length of time would allow
City to work with industry representatives to develop acceptable guidelines, ordinances and
application processes. All pending applications should be exempt from any moratorium.
After reviewing Resolution #P.C. 36-2000, the City Attorney suggested three additional
points be incorporated into the resolution to comply with FCC standard practices for
moratoria. Plan Director Turk has implemented the additional language into Resolution
#P.C. 36A-2000. Alderman Salentine made a motion to amend resolution #P.C. 36-2000
incorporating additional language from City Attorney to be added as found in
