RESOLUTION NO. 3527
BEING A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF
THE CITY OF CAMPBELL APPROVING A CONDmONAL USE
PERMIT (pLN2003-112) TO ALLOW THE CO-LOCATION OF A
WIRELESS TELECOMMUNICATIONS FACILITY ON PROPERTY
OWNED BY SUSA PARTNERSHIP, LP, LOCATED AT 187 E.
SUNNYOAKS AVENUE IN AN M-l-S (LIGHT INDUSTRIAL)
ZONING DISTRICT. Fll..E NO. PLN2003-112.
After notification and public hearing, as specified by law, and after presentation by the
Community Development Director, proponents and opponents, the hearing was closed.
After due consideration of all evidence presented, the Planning Commission did find as follows
with respect to application PLN2003-112:
1. The proposed wireless telecommunications facility is consistent with the General Plan land
use designation of Light Industrial.
2. The proposed wireless telecommunications facility is consistent with the M-l Zoning
District with approval of a Conditional Use Permit.
3. The equipment cabinets will be housed in a 150 square foot storage unit within the existing
building. The cabinets would be located entirely within the building and would not be
visible from the exterior.
4. The panel antennas measure four feet three inches talI and would be mounted inside the
existing cupola on the roof of the building at six feet above the parapet of the building. The
antennas would not be visible from the exterior of the cupola.
5. The addition of the new antennas within an existing cupola, where there is an existing
wireless carrier, will result in less visual clutter in the long tenD and reduce overall visual
impacts.
6. The installation of the wireless antenna facility will not have an impact on the existing six
parking spaces. No parking spaces are required for this project because the facility would
be unmanned and would require a site maintenance visit approximately once a month.
7. The project qualifies as a Categorically Exempt project per Section 15301, Class 1
(Existing Facilities) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the Planning Commission further finds and
concludes that:
---

Page 2
1. The proposed project is consistent with the City's General Plan and Zoning Ordinance.
2. The establishment, maintenance, or operation of the use will not be detrimental to the public
health, safety, peace, morals, comfort or general welfare of persons residing or working in
the neighborhood of such proposed use, or be detrimental or injurious to property and
improvements in the neighborhood or to the general welfare of the City.
3, The proposed use is compatible with the uses in the area.
4. The subject site is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the yards, walls, fences,
parking and loading facilities, landscaping and other development features required in order
to integrate said use with uses in the surrounding area.
5. The subject site is adequately served by streets of sufficient capacity to carry the kind and
quantity of traffic such uses would generate.
6. The proposed project will aid in the enhancement and the hannonious development of the
immediate area.
7. There is a reasonable relationship and a rough proportionality between the conditions of
approval and the impacts of the project.
8. No substantial evidence has been presented which shows that the project, as currently
presented and subject to the required conditions of approval, will have a significant adverse
impact on the environment.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission approves a Conditional

DISCUSSION
Background: The subject property is improved with a three-story mini storage building cuITently
operated by GE Storage Centers. A Nextel wireless telecommunications facility was approved
Staff Report - Planning Co111mission Meeting of October 14, 2003
PLN2003-112 -187 E. Sunnyoaks Avenue
Page 2 of 3
on the site in October 1998 and consists of twelve panel antennas located inside a cupola on the
roof of the building and equipment cabinets within the building.
Applicant's Proposal: The applicant proposes to mount three panel antennas and one GPS
antenna inside the existing cupola on the roof the building that was built by Nextel to house their
antennas. The proposal also includes the installation of new equipment cabinets within the
building. The proposed wireless telecommunications facility would be unmanned and would
require a site maintenance visit approximately once a month.
Location: The subject property is located on the north side of East Sunnyoaks A venue, south of
the San Tomas Expressway overpass of Winchester A venue. The property is surrounded by the
San Tomas Expressway to the north, railroad tracks to the west and industrial uses to the south
and east.
ANALYSIS
General Plan Designation: The General Plan land use designation for the project site is Light
Industrial. The proposed wireless telecommunications facility is consistent with this land use
designation. Therefore, the proposed project is consistent with the General Plan.
Zoning Designation: The zoning designation for the project site is M-l (Light Industrial).
Wireless telecommunications facilities are pennitted in the M-l Zoning District. Each service
provider on a co-location site must obtain a Conditional Use Pennit per the Wireless
Telecommunications Facilities Ordinance. The proposed project is consistent with the Zoning
Ordinance with approval of a Conditional Use Pennit.
Antenna Description and Mounting Technique: The panel antennas measure four feet three
inches tall and would be mounted inside the existing cupola on the roof of the building at six feet
above the parapet of the building. The antennas would not be visible from the exterior of the
cupola. The location and mounting technique of the proposed stealthed roof-mounted antennas
is a preferred siting and mounting technique under the Wireless Telecommunications Facilities
Ordinance.
The applicant submitted a report prepared by Hammett & Edison, Inc. to evaluate the facility for
compliance with Federal Standards limiting human exposure to radio frequency electromagnetic
fields. The report concluded that the proposed co-location site will be within the Federal
Standards and will not have a detrimental effect on the environment.
Equipment Cabinets: The proposed equipment cabinets would be housed in a 150 square foot
storage unit within the existing building. The cabinets would be located entirely within the
existing building and would not be visible from the exterior. New exterior doors will be installed
along the southern elevation to allow for access to the equipment room from the exterior of the
building.
Height: The Wireless Telecommunications Facilities Ordinance requires that roof mounted
antennas and all their support structures not exceed the maximum height allowed for buildings in
Staff Report - Planning CcJu1ffiÏssion Meeting of October 14,2003
PLN2003-112 -187 E. Sunnyoaks Avenue
Page 3 of 3
the zoning district in which it is located and shall not extend more than six feet above the parapet
of the building. The maximum building height in the M-l Zoning District is seventy-five feet.
The proposed antennas would be located within the cupola at thirty eight-feet, two inches above
grade and six feet above the parapet of the building.
Compatibility: Co-location of wireless telecommunications facilities is preferred under the
Wireless Telecommunications Facilities Ordinance if it is detennined that it will result in less
visual clutter in the long term and reduce overall visual impacts.
Based on the current proposal, staff finds that the proposed antennas and equipment cabinets are
stealthed and that the proposed use is compatible with the existing use and the surrounding area.
The addition of the new antennas within an existing cupola, where there is an existing wireless
carrier, will result in less visual clutter in the long term and reduce overall visual impacts.
Parking: The installation of the wireless antenna facility will not have an impact on the existing
six parking spaces. No parking spaces are required for this project because the facility would be
unmanned and would require a site maintenance visit approximately once a month.
Site and Architectural Review Committee: The Site and Architectural Review Committee
(SARC) reviewed this application at its meeting of September 23,2003. SARC was supportive
of the application as proposed with the recommendation that the applicant provide a door on the
cupola where there is currently just an opening and re-paint the cupola as part of maintenance of
the paint color. Condition of Approval # 5 has been added to address these recommendations.

The proposed wireless telecommunications facility is consistent with the M-l
Zoning District with approval of a Conditional Use Permit.
The equipment cabinets will be housed in a 150 square foot storage unit within the
existing building. The cabinets would be located entirely within the building and
would not be visible from the exterior.
The panel antennas measure four feet three inches tall and would be mounted inside
the existing cupola on the roof of the building at six feet above the parapet of the
building. The antennas would not be visible from the exterior of the cupola.
The addition of the new antennas within an existing cupola, where there is an
existing wireless carrier, will result in less visual clutter in the long term and reduce
overall visual impacts.
The installation of the wireless antenna facility will not have an impact on the
existing six parking spaces. No parking spaces are required for this project because
the facility would be unmanned and would require a site maintenance visit
approximately once a month.
The project qualifies as a Categorically Exempt project per Section 15301, Class 1
(Existing Facilities) of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
Based upon the foregoing findings of fact, the Planning Commission further finds and
concludes that:
2.
1.
The proposed project is consistent with the City's General Plan and Zoning
Ordinance.
The establishment, maintenance, or operation of the use will not be detrimental to
the public health, safety, peace, morals, comfort or general welfare of persons
residing or working in the neighborhood of such proposed use, or be detrimental or
injurious to property and improvements in the neighborhood or to the general

welfare of the City.
The proposed use is compatible with the uses in the area.
The subject site is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the yards, walls,
fences, parking and loading facilities, landscaping and other development features
required in order to integrate said use with uses in the surrounding area.
The subject site is adequately served by streets of sufficient capacity to carry the
kind and quantity of traffic such uses would generate,
The proposed project will aid in the enhancement and the harmonious development
of the immediate area.
There is a reasonable relationship and a rough proportionality between the
conditions of approval and the impacts of the project.
8.
No substantial evidence has been presented which shows that the project, as
currently presented and subject to the required conditions of approval, will have a
significant adverse impact on the environment.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
MetroPCS ("Metro") is proposing a complete stealth design for its wireless
telecommunications facility to be located at 187 E. Sunnyoaks Avenue (Storage
USA). Three (3) Metro panel antennas and one (1) GPS antenna will be
mounted inside an existing cupola, made of RF transparent materials, built by
Nextel Communications years ago to screen their antennas. Metro's equipment
cabinets will be housed in a 10'x15' storage unit, which will be the result of
dividing two (2) existing and adjoining 1 O'x1 0' storage units. The remaining
5'x10' storage space will be retained by Storage USA for its use. As typical of all
wireless facilities, this site will be unmanned and only require monthly service
visits.
GEOGRAPHIC SERVICE AREA
The proposed site, while minor in size, would substantially improve
Metro's coverage to better serve the wireless needs of those in living and
working in the City of Campbell. As the two (2) attached coverage maps show,
the proposed site (labeled SFA-Z12-318@3) will provide in-vehicle and indoor
coverage (shown in green). In the future, Metro must work on improving its
coverage to the west of this proposed site (currently marginal as shown in red on
second map).
RADIO FREQUENCY/FCC COMPLIANCE
MetroPCS operates at the following frequencies: transmit - 1895 MHz to
1910 Mhz and receiving - 1975 MHz to 1990 MHz. It is licensed by the FCC and
the proposed site complies with federal standards. Please refer to the
concurrently submitted report prepared and signed by Hammett & Edison, Inc. on
August 19, 2003.
SITE SELECTION
Metro chose this site because it accomplishes the coverage objective and
meets the City's wireless ordinance. While Metro would have preferred to mount
its antennas above Nextel's cupola, Metro has compromised to the minimum
height possible from a technological standpoint, in order to design a stealth and
co-located site. Metro had also evaluated another co-location to the east on
Sunnyoaks Ave. However, that building currently has unscreened antennas
mounted on top of the roof, which makes it difficult for Metro to design an
architecturally integrated site.

MEMORANDUM
To:
Site and Architectural Review Committee
Date: September 17, 2003
From:
Stephanie Willsey, Planner I %W
Subject:
187 E. Sunnyoaks Avenue - Conditional Use Permit Application
PROPOSAL
The applicant is requesting approval of a Conditional Use Permit for the co-location of a wireless
telecommunications facility. The Zoning designation of the project site is M-l (Light Industrial) and
the General Plan designation is Light Industrial.
Sprint PCS is proposing to locate antennas within an existing cupola on the roof of an existing mini
storage facility. The antennas would be completely screened from view and would be placed inside
the cupola which currently houses Nextel antennas. The equipment cabinet would be located inside
the storage building adjacent to the Nextel equipment cabinets on the ground floor. The equipment
cabinet would not be visible from the exterior of the building.
STAFF ANALYSIS
Staff is supportive of the project as proposed. The co-location of wireless telecommunications
facilities is encouraged under the Wireless Telecommunications Ordinance. The proposed project is
also in a preferred location and utilizes a preferred mounting technique under the Ordinance.

Use Permit
Supplemental Application
PURPOSE
A Use Permit allows for special consideration of certain
specified uses which may be compatible with an area depending
on the specifics of the particular case. The Use Permit process is
designed to provide the City sufficient flexibility to determine
whether a specific land use on a certain site will be compatible
with its environs and the General Plan.
PROCESS
Project Consideration & Pre-Auulication Review: In reviewing a
use permit application, the staff and Planning Commission will
evaluate such items as building placement and size, traffic
generation, noise, hours of operation, adequacy of parking,
circulation, drop-off facilities and overall compatibility of use
with adjoining properties. It is recommended that the applicant
submit a preliminary proposal to the Planning Department prior
to submission of formal application. This will allow the
Planning staff to review the request and inform the applicant of
possible concerns related to the proposal.
Filing of Auulication: The applicant should submit a completed
application, filing fee, a written statement and other required
information to the Planning Department. A planner will be
assigned to review the material to make sure all the required
information is provided. The applicant will be notified within 30
days as to whether the application is complete or whether
additional information is required.
Environmental Review: Typically, use permits are categorically
exempt from the environmental review process.
Site and Architectural Review Committee (SARC): Use permit
applications involving exterior modifications require review by
SARC. The Committee reviews the application for site layout
--
FILE NO.f1N '2-003 - ll2
and building design and then forwards a recommendation to the
Planning Commission.
Staff Review: The Planning staff will review the application and
conduct a site investigation to determine the relationship of the
request with the City's General Plan and to analyze land use,
traffic, site plan and other impacts or concerns of the proposed
project. A written staff report will be prepared for the Planning
Commission (PC) that includes staff's recommendations and a
description of the development proposal. A copy of this report
will be sent to the applicant during the week prior to the PC
hearing on the application. Copies are also available to the
public.
Public Notice: All use permit applications require a public
hearing which is held during the Planning Commission meeting.
At least ten days prior to the meeting, property owners within
300 feet of the site will be notified by mail of the public hearing
and a notice will be published in the Campbell Express.
Planning Commission Meeting: The staff will present an oral
report and recommendation for your application. This
presentation will be followed by testimony from the applicant
and then by any interested persons who may wish to comment on
the application. The Planning Commission may then close the
public hearing and make a decision approving or conditionally
approving the request, denying the request or postponing the
decision to a later date. Unless an appeal is filed, the Planning
Commission's decision will become final unless ratification is
required by the City Council.
Appeal to CitY Council: Use permits do not go to the City
Council unless the Planning Commission's decision is appealed
within ten calendar days.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
MetroPCS ("Metro") is proposing a complete stealth design for its wireless
telecommunications facility to be located at 187 E. Sunnyoaks Avenue (Storage
USA). Three (3) Metro panel antennas and one (1) GPS antenna will be
mounted inside an existing cupola, made of RF transparent materials, built by
Nextel Communications years ago to screen their antennas. Metro's equipment
cabinets will be housed in a 10'x15' storage unit, which will be the result of
dividing two (2) existing and adjoining 1 O'x1 0' storage units. The remaining
5'x10' storage space will be retained by Storage USA for its use. As typical of all
wireless facilities, this site will be unmanned and only require monthly service
visits.
GEOGRAPHIC SERVICE AREA
The proposed site, while minor in size, would substantially improve
Metro's coverage to better serve the wireless needs of those in living and
working in the City of Campbell. As the two (2) attached coverage maps show,
the proposed site (labeled SFA-Z12-318@3) will provide in-vehicle and indoor
coverage (shown in green). In the future, Metro must work on improving its
coverage to the west of this proposed site (currently marginal as shown in red on
second map).
RADIO FREQUENCY/FCC COMPLIANCE
MetroPCS operates at the following frequencies: transmit - 1895 MHz to
1910 Mhz and receiving - 1975 MHz to 1990 MHz. It is licensed by the FCC and
the proposed site complies with federal standards. Please refer to the
concurrently submitted report prepared and signed by Hammett & Edison, Inc. on
August 19, 2003.
SITE SELECTION
Metro chose this site because it accomplishes the coverage objective and
meets the City's wireless ordinance. While Metro would have preferred to mount
its antennas above Nextel's cupola, Metro has compromised to the minimum
height possible from a technological standpoint, in order to design a stealth and
co-located site. Metro had also evaluated another co-location to the east on
Sunnyoaks Ave. However, that building currently has unscreened antennas
mounted on top of the roof, which makes it difficult for Metro to design an
architecturally integrated site.

MetroPCS. Proposed Base Station (Site No. SFA-Z12-318A)
187 East Sunnyoaks Avenue. Campbell, California
Statement of Hammett & Edison, Inc., Consulting Engineers
The firm of Hammett & Edison, Inc., Consulting Engineers, has been retained on behalf of MetroPCS,
a wireless telecommunications carrier, to evaluate the PCS base station (Site No. SFA-Z12-318A)
proposed to be located at 187 East Sunnyoaks Avenue in Campbell, California, for compliance with
appropriate guidelines limiting human exposure to radio frequency ("RF") electromagnetic fields.
Prevailing Exposure Standards
The u.s. Congress requires that the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC") evaluate its actions
for possible significant impact on the environment. In Docket 93-62, effective October 15, 1997, the
FCC adopted the human exposure limits for field strength and power density recommended in Report
No. 86, "Biological Effects and Exposure Criteria for Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields,"
published in 1986 by the Congressionally chartered National Council on Radiation Protection and
Measurements ("NCRP"). Separate limits apply for occupational and public exposure conditions,
with the latter limits generally five times more restrictive. The more recent Institute of Electrical and
Electronics Engineers ("IEEE") Standard C95.1-1999, "Safety Levels with Respect to Human
Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields, 3 kHz to 300 GHz," includes nearly identical
exposure limits. A summary of the FCC's exposure limits is shown in Figure 1. These limits apply
for continuous exposures and are intended to provide a prudent margin of safety for all persons,
regardless of age, gender, size, or health.
The most restrictive thresholds for exposures of unlimited duration to radio frequency energy for
several personal wireless services are as follows:

General Facility Requirements
Base stations typically consist of two distinct parts: the electronic transceivers (also called "radios" or
"cabinets") that are connected to the traditional wired telephone lines, and the passive antennas that
send the wireless signals created by the radios out to be received by individual subscriber units. The
transceivers are often located at ground level and are connected to the antennas by coaxial cables about
1 inch thick. Because of the short wavelength of the frequencies assigned by the FCC for wireless
services, the antennas require line-of-sight paths for their signals to propagate well and so are installed
at some height above ground. The antennas are designed to concentrate their energy toward the

horizon, with very little energy wasted toward the sky or the ground. Along with the low power of
such facilities, this means that it is generally not possible for exposure conditions to approach the
maximum permissible exposure limits without being physically very near the antennas.
Computer Modeling Method
The FCC provides direction for determining compliance in its Office of Engineering and Technology
Bulletin No. 65, "Evaluating Compliance with FCC-Specified Guidelines for Human Exposure to
Radio Frequency Radiation," dated August 1997. Figure 2 attached describes the calculation
methodologies, reflecting the facts that a directional antenna's radiation pattern is not fully formed at
locations very close by (the "near-field" effect) and that the power level from an energy source
decreases with the square of the distance from it (the "inverse square law"). The conservative nature
of this method for evaluating expected exposure conditions has been verified by numerous field tests.
Site and Facility Description
Based upon information provided by Metro, including zoning drawings by DCI Pacific, dated August
15, 2003, it is proposed to mount three EMS Model RR6518-00DPL2 directional panel antennas
behind an existing fiberglass screen above the roof of the three-story building located at 187 East
Sunnyoaks Avenue in Campbell. The antennas would be mounted at an effective height of about
36 feet above ground, 6 feet above the roof, and would be oriented toward 40oT, 160oT, and 270°T.
The maximum effective radiated power in any direction would be 1,890 watts, representing six
channels operating simultaneously at 315 watts each.
Presently located behind the same screen are similar antennas for use by Nextel SMR, another wireless
telecommunications carner. Nexte1 reports that it is using twelve Andrew Model DB844H65 panel
antennas mounted at an effective height of about 40 feet above ground. Those antennas are oriented in
three groups of four antennas toward 90oT, 210oT, and 270oT, operating with a maximum effective
radiated power in any direction of 580 watts.
Study Results
The maximum ambient RF level at any publicly accessible area near the site due to the proposed Metro
operation by itself is calculated to be 0.0023 mW/cm2, which is 0.23% of the applicable public
exposure limit. The maximum calculated cumulative level at ground for the simultaneous operation of
both earners is 1.0% of the public exposure limit; the maximmn level at the second floor elevation of
any of the nearby homes. is 0.26% of the public exposure limit. It should be noted that these results

include several "worst-case" assumptions and therefore are expected to overstate actual power density
levels. Areas on the roof of the subject building may exceed the applicable exposure limit.
Recommended Mitigation Measures
It is recommended that the roof of the building be kept locked, so that the antennas are not accessible
to the general public. To prevent occupational exposures in excess of the FCC guidelines, no access
within 8 feet in front of the Metro antennas themselves, such as might occur during building
maintenance activities, should be allowed while the site is in operation, unless other measures can be
demonstrated to ensure that occupational protection requirements are met. Posting explanatory
warning signst at roof access location( s) and on the screen in front of the antennas, such that the signs
would be readily visible from any angle of approach to persons who might need to work within that
distance, would be sufficient to meet FCC-adopted guidelines. Similar measures should already be in
place for the other carrier at the site; applicable keep-back distances have not been detennined as part
of this study.
Conclusion
Based on the infonnation and analysis above, it is the undersigned's professional opinion that the base
station proposed by MetroPCS at 187 East Sunnyoaks Avenue in Campbell, California, can comply
with the prevailing standards for limiting human exposure to radio frequency energy and, therefore,
need not for this reason cause a significant impact on the environment. The highest calculated level in
publicly accessible areas is much less than the prevailing standards allow for exposures of unlimited
duration. This finding is consistent with measurements of actual exposure conditions taken at other
operating base stations.
HE
t Warning signs should comply with ANSI C95.2 color, symbol, and content conventions. In addition, contact
information should be provided (e.g., a telephone number) to arrange for access to restricted areas. The selection of
language(s) is not an engineering matter, and guidance from the landlord, local zoning or health authority, or
appropriate professionals may be required.

FCC Radio Frequency Protection Guide
The u.S. Congress required (1996 Telecom Act) the Federal Communications Commission ("FCC")
to adopt a nationwide human exposure standard to ensure that its licensees do not, cumulatively, have
a significant impact on the environment. The FCC adopted the limits from Report No. 86, "Biological
Effects and Exposure Criteria for Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields," published in 1986 by the
Congressionally chartered National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements, which are
nearly identical to the more recent Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Standard

Higher levels are allowed for short periods of time, such that total exposure levels averaged over six or
thirty minutes, for occupational or public settings, respectively, do not exceed the limits, and higher
levels also are allowed for exposures to small areas, such that the spatially averaged levels do not
exceed the limits. However, neither of these allowances is incorporated in the conservative calculation
formulas in the FCC Office of Engineering and Technology Bulletin No. 65 (August 1997) for
projecting field levels. Hammett & Edison has built those formulas into a proprietary program that
calculates, at each location on an arbitrary rectangular grid, the total expected power density from any
number of individual radio sources. The program allows for the description of buildings and uneven
terrain, if required to obtain more accurate projections.

of Compliance with Human Exposure Limitations

These limits apply for continuous exposures from all sources and are intended to provide a prudent margin

periods of time, such that total exposure levels averaged over six or thirty minutes, for occupational or
public settings, respectively, do not exceed the limits.
Near Field. Prediction methods have been developed for the near field zone of panel (directional)
and whip (omnidirectional) antennas, typical at wireless telecommunications cell sites. The near field zone
is the distance from an antenna before which the manufacturer's published, far field antenna patterns have
fonned; the near field is assumed to be in effect for increasing D until three conditions have been met:
1) D > ~ 2) D > 5h 3) D> 1.6À
where h = aperture height of the antenna, in meters, and
À = wavelength of the transmitted signal, in meters.
The FCC Office of Engineering and Technology Bulletin No. 65 (August 1997)
calculating power density in the near field zone about an individual RF source:
. 180 0.1 x Pnet
power denSIty S = tJBW X 1t X D x h' in mW/cmZ,
gives this fonnula for
where 8BW = half-power beamwidth of antenna, in degrees, and
Pnet = net power input to the antenna, in watts.
The factor of 0.1 in the numerator converts to the desired units of power density. This fonnula has been
built into a proprietary program that calculates the distances to the FCC public and occupational limits.
Far Field. OET-65 gives this fonnula for calculating power density in the far field of an individual
RF source:
power density
S = 2.56 x 1.64 x 100 x RFFZ x ERP
4x1txDZ '
in m W/cmZ
,
where ERP = total ERP (all polarizations), in kilowatts,
RFF = relative field factor at the direction to the actual point of calculation, and
D = distance from the center of radiation to the point of calculation, in meters.
The factor of 2.56 accounts for the increase in power density due to ground reflection, assuming a
reflection coefficient of 1.6 (1.6 x 1.6 = 2.56). The factor of 1.64 is the gain of a half-wave dipole
relative to an isotropic radiator. The factor of 100 in the numerator converts to the desired units of
power density. This fonnula has been built into a proprietary program that calculates, at each location on
an arbitrary rectangular grid, the total expected power density from any number of individual radiation
sources. The program also allows for the description of uneven terrain at the site, to obtain more accurate
projections.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
MetroPCS ("Metro" or "Applicant") proposes to install an Accellerator
on top of an existing cupola at the Storage USA located at 187 E. Sunnyoaks
Avenue. An Accellerator is a cylindrical structure measuring 16" in diameter
and 72" in height, with three (3) panel antennas inside. It may be painted
any color to match the existing building. The cupola, as Applicant
understands, was built by Nextel Communications for the purpose of
screening their antennas. As for Metro's equipment cabinets, they are to be
housed in a lO'x20' storage unit, next to Nextel's storage unit of the same
size. The existing roll up door for the storage unit will be filled with a one-
hour rated wall (painted to match existing adjacent surface), and a new one-
hour rated access door will be installed. Directly outside Metro's storage
unit, within a 4'-6" x 6' area, Metro proposes to install an AlC condenser unit.
As typical of all wireless facilities, this site will be unmanned and only
require monthly service visits. It is expected to blend in well with the area,
as the surround uses are light industrial in nature much like the subject
property.
This proposed site, while minor in size, would substantially improve
Metro's coverage to better serve the wireless needs of those in Campbell. If
there are any questions or concerns regarding this Pre-Application Review
Application, please do not hesitate to contact Judy Ma at (925) 899-7448.

Preliminary Application for a Telecommunications Facility
Dear Ms. Ma:
Thank you for your submittal of a preliminary application for the installation of a Metro
PCS wireless communications facility at 187 E. Sunnyoaks Avenue. Your pre-application
was distributed to the Public Works Department, Building Division, Planning Division,
and the County Fire Department. The Planning Division comments are detailed below.
The Public Works Department, Building Division and Fire Department did not have any
comments or preliminary conditions of approval at this time. Please note that all
comments are meant to be preliminary. Conditions of approval from each department
will be developed at the time a formal application is submitted.
The proposed Metro PCS installation would create a co-location site since there are
Nextel telecommunication antennas already mounted on the building inside a cupola at
187 E. Sunnyoaks Avenue. Under the Telecommunications Ordinance, each wireless
telecommunications service provider located on a co-location site is required to receive
approval of a Conditional Use Permit by the Planning Commission and would be decided
upon at a public hearing.
All proposed telecommunications facilities are required to be located so as to minimize
their visual impact to the maximum extent feasible. Roof-mounted antennas are required
under the Telecommunications Ordinance to be located in an area of the roof where the
visual impact is minimized. Screening panels may be used to mitigate visual impacts but
must be designed to blend with the architecture of the building in terms of scale, material
and color. No roof-mounted antennas, including support structures, shall exceed six feet
in height above the parapet of the roof. The proposed accelerator and support structure is
sixteen feet above the parapet. Staff has significant concerns regarding the proposed
placement of the accelerator since it is highly visible to the public and does not meet the
requirements.

Since you have proposed to install the antennas inside an accelerator on top of an existing
cupola, staff has determined that the proposed installation does not qualify as a preferred
mounting technique under Section 21.60.060 of the Telecommunications Ordinance and
will cause significant visual impacts at this location. If you revise your plans to relocate
the proposed antennas inside the existing cupola that will completely screen the antennas
from view, staff may be able to support a second telecommunications facility installation
at this location.
If you have any questions about the comments contained herein, please feel free to
contact me at (408) 866-2142 or via e-mail at melindad@cityofcampbell.com.
