Constructing a radio tower in the Seward Marine Industrial Center appears to be in harmony with the Comprehensive Plan. E. Public Services and facilities are adequate to serve the proposed site. This condition appears to be met for the proposed tower. Power is available to the site. Water and Sewer are not available, however these services do not appear necessary for the tower. Fire and police services are limited in the Seward Marine Industrial Center. F. The proposed use will not be harmful to the public safety, health or welfare. The proposed tower will be fairly isolated from any other uses or activities, however the site should be secured to prevent unauthorized access on the tower. According to the Building Official, a building permit will be required for construction of the tower. The existing ATCO trailer does not meet building codes and has no water or sewer available. G. Any and all specific conditions deemed necessary by the commission to fulfill the above- mentioned conditions shall be met by the applicant. These may include but are not limited to measures relative to access, screening, site development, building design, operation of the use and other similar aspects to the proposed use. Section 2. Based on the Findings of Fact specified in Section 1, the Planning and Zoning Commission authorizes the Community Development Department to issue a Conditional Use Permit to Glacier Communications Inc. for the development of a radio tower within Block 6, Fourth of July Creek Subdivision, Seward Marine Industrial Center, subject to the following conditions: 1. In accordance with the Fourth of July Creek Subdivision, Seward Marine Industrial Center plat requirements, no portion of the tower, including guy wires and anchors, may be located within 10 feet of any right-of-way or access easement, and no portion of the tower may be located within five feet of a side property line; 2. The base of the tower must be fenced in order to prevent unauthorized access; 3. The A Tea trailer, currently located on the property, must meet all zoning setbacks, and may only be used for the storage of equipment associated with the tower, except that, the trailer may be used as a temporary office/studio for up to one year from the effective date of the Conditional Use Permit provided that a portable toilet is provided on site. , , ",Il'tl~ ~ "'.
