The following requirements shall apply to collocation of antennas on an existing electrical transmission structure (as defined in CMC 18.20.046):

(1) Height. The height requirements for antennas that are collocated on electrical transmission structures are limited to 12 feet above the existing tower or pole height. If a replacement electrical transmission structure is proposed, the maximum height shall be no greater than 12 feet above the original electrical transmission structure’s height.

(2) Antenna Aesthetics. There are no restrictions on the type of antenna(s) that may be collocated on the electrical transmission structure. The antenna(s) must be painted to match the color of the electrical transmission tower/pole.

(3) Antenna Intensity. There is no limit on the number of antennas that may be collocated on an electrical transmission structure.

(4) Feed Lines and Coaxial Cables. Feed lines and coaxial cables shall be attached to the existing pole or to one of the legs of the electrical transmission tower. The feed lines and cables must be painted to match the color of the electrical transmission structure. If a replacement structure is proposed, the feed lines and coaxial cables shall be located within the structure or in a covered raceway of similar color and material to the tower or pole.

(5) Equipment Enclosures. Cabinet equipment shall be located directly under the electrical transmission tower where the antennas are located, or in a concealed location.

(6) Setbacks. Setback requirements shall not apply to wireless communication facilities collocated on an existing electrical transmission structure. (Ord. 08-21 § 4 (Exh. C); Ord. 03-19 § 3 (Exh. B); Ord. 09-12 § 1 (Exh. A))
