Conditional Use Permit Request
STAFF REPORT
Preparcd B�:Ja� Kozlowski,Saw�cr Counh Zoning&Conservation Administrator
File: # CUP 23-005
Applicant:
Michael Anderson
1023 Parker Ave
Roseville, MN SS l 13
Agent:
TowerNorth Development, LLC & Verizon Wireless
C/O Mountain, LTD. —Trish Gray
Property Location & Legal Description:
Town of Round Lake. Part of the SW '/ of the NW '/; SOS, T41 N, R06W; Parcel #024-641-OS-
2301; Tax ID# 24024; 34.89 total acres; Zoned Agricultural One (A-1).
Purpose of Request:
Construction of a 275' wireless communication tower with S lightning rod per Section
17.4 (B) (4) of the Sawyer County Zoning Ordinance and Sawyer County Telecommunication
Ordinance in conjunction with WI State Stats.
Project History/Summary of Request/Summary of State mobile tower siting regulations:
With the new changes to WI Chapter 66.0404 mobile tower siting regulations including
the changes in 2017 and in 2019 Counties are somewhat limited in local regulations as long as the
applicant or mobile service provider coinply with the provisions and regulations specified in
66.0404. The Sawyer County Telecommunication Ordinance would not be compliant at this point
to State Statutes and the State Statutes would need to be followed. The only element that the
Sawyer County Zoning Telecommunication Ordinance is utilizing is that a Conditional Use Permit
is required for a telecommunication facility.
Per the regulations established in 66.0404(2)(b) the application process which a person must
complete to engage in the siting, construction, or inodification activities shall be in writing and
shall contain all of the following information:
1. The name and business address of, and the contact individual for, the applicant.
(included in attached plans)
2. The location of the proposed or affected support structure. (included in attached plans)
3. The location of the proposed mobile service facility. (included in attached plans)
. ,
> > > , > >
, . (new structure-not
applicable)
5. If the application is to construct a new mobile service support structure, a construction
plan which describes the proposed mobile service support structure and the equipment and
network components, including antennas, transmitters, receivers, base stations, power supplies,
cabling, and related equipment to be placed on ar around the new mobile service support
structure. (included in attached plans)
6. If an application is to construct a new mobile service support structure, an explanation as
to why the applicant chose the proposed location and why the applicant did not choose
collocation, including a sworn statement from an individual who has responsibility over the
placement of the mobile service support structure attesting that collocation within the applicant's
search ring would not result in the saine mobile service functionality, coverage, and capacity; is
technically infeasible; or is economically burdensome to the mobile service provider. (included
as separate letter in packet)
The Sawyer County Zoning Administrator has deemed that the application is complete.
Within 90 days of its receipt of a complete application ( January 26, 2023), a political
subdivision (Sawyer County) shall complete all of the following ar the applicant may consider
the application approved, except that the applicant and the political subdivision may agree in
writing to an extension of the 90 day period:
1. Review the application to determine whether it complies with all applicable aspects of
the political subdivision's building code and, subject to the limitations in this section, zoning
ordinances. (All other determination have been tentatively approved by the Zoning &
Conservation Department including setbacks, floodplains, and other County Zoning
Ordinances not subject to the limitations described later in this staff report)
2. Make a final decision whether to approve or disapprove the application.
3. Notify the applicant, in writing, of its final decision.
4. If the decision is to disapprove the application, include with the written notification
substantial evidence which supports the decision.
• A political subdivision may disapprove an application if an applicant refuses to
evaluate the feasibility of collocation within the applicant's search ring and provide
the sworn statement.
• A party who is aggrieved by the final decision of a political subdivision may bring an
action in the circuit court of the county in which the proposed activity, which is the
subject of the application, is to be located.
• If an applicant provides a political subdivision with an engineering certification
showing that a inobile service support structure, or an existing structure, is designed
to collapse within a sinaller area than the setback or fall zone area required in a zoning
ordinance, that zoning ordinance does not apply to such a structure unless the political
subdivision provides the applicant with substantial evidence that the engineering
certification is flawed. (The proposed tower height would be 250' and would be
located 130' to the closest setback line. The applicant has provided a letter from
a professional engineer indicating that even though the tower would be within
the fallzone of a setback line that the tower is designed to collapse with a radius
less than or equal to 125'. If the committee accepts this engineering certificate a
greater setback distance than 130' from a setback line may not be imposed.)
66.0404(4) Limitations: With regard to an activity described for new construction a political
subdivision may not do any of the following:
• Impose environmental testing, sampling, or monitoring requirements, or other compliance
measures for radio frequency emissions, on mobile service facilities or mobile radio service
providers.
• Enact an ardinance imposing a moratorium on the permitting, construction, or approval of any
such activities.
• Enact an ordinance prohibiting the placen�ent of a mobile service support structure in
particular locations within the political subdivision.
� Charge a mobile radio service provider a fee in excess of$3,000 for new construction.
• Charge a mobile radio service provider any recurring fee for new construction or a class 2
collocation.
• Permit 3rd party consultants to charge the applicant for any travel expenses incurred in the
consultant's review of mobile service permits or applications.
• Disapprove an application to conduct an activity based solely on aesthetic concerns.
• Disapprove an application to conduct a class 2 collocation on aesthetic concems.
� Enact or enforce an ordinance related to radio frequency signal strength or the adequacy of
mobile service quality.
• Impose a surety requirement, unless the requirement is competitively neutral,
nondiscriminatory, and commensurate with the historical record for surety requirements for
other facilities and structures in the political subdivision which fall into disuse. There is a
rebuttable presumption that a surety requirement of$20,000 or less complies with this
paragraph.
• Prohibit the placement of emergency power systems.
• Require that a mobile service support structure be placed on property owned by the political
subdivision.
• Disapprove an application based solely on the height of the mobile service support structure
or on whether the structure requires lighting.
• Condition approval of such activities on the agreement of the structure or mobile service
facility owner to provide space on or near the structure far the use of ar by the political
subdivision at less than the market rate, or to provide the political subdivision other services
via the structure or facilities at less than the market rate.
• Limit the duration of any permit that is granted.
• Require an applicant to construct a distributed antenna system instead of either constructing a
new mobile service support structure or engaging in collocation.
• Disapprove an application based on an assessment by the political subdivision of the
suitability of other locations for conducting the activity.
• Require that a mobile service support structure, existing structure, or mobile service facilities
have or be connected to backup battery power.
� Impose a setback or fall zone requirement for a mobile service support structure that is
different from a requirement that is imposed on other types of commercial structures.
� Consider an activity a substantial modification if a greater height is necessary to avoid
interference with an existing antenna.
• Consider an activity a substantial modification if a greater protrusion is necessary to shelter
the antenna from inclement weather or to connect the antenna to the existing structure by
cable
• Limit the height of a mobile service support structure to under 200 feet
• Condition the approval of an application on, or otherwise require, the applicant's agreement to
indemnify or insure the political subdivision in connection with the political subdivision's
exercise of its authority to approve the application.
• Condition the approval of an application on, or otherwise require, the applicant's agreement to
permit the political subdivision to place at or collocate with the applicant'� support structure
any mobile service facilities provided or operated by, whether in whole or in part, a political
subdivision ar an entity in which a political subdivision has a governance, competitive,
economic, financial or other interest.
Additional information for Conditional Use Permits:
Substantial evidence means facts and information, other than merely personal preferences
ar speculation, directly pertaining to the requirements and conditions an applicant must meet to
obtain a conditional use permit and that reasonable persons would accept in support of a
conclusion.
If an applicant agrees to meets all of the requirements and conditions specified in the
county ordinance or those imposed by the county zoning board, the county shall grant the
conditional use permit. Any condition imposed inust be related to the purpose of the ordinance
and be based on substantial evidence. The conditions must be reasonable and, to the extent
practicable, measurable. The applicant inust demonstrate that the application and all
requirements and conditions established by the county relating to the conditional use are or shall
be satisfied, both of which must be supported by substantial evidence. The county's decision to
approve or deny the permit must be supported by substantial evidence.

SUMMARY OF PROPOSED CONDTIONAL USE APPROVAL FOR A 280'COMMUNICATIONS TOWER
__
TowerNorth Development,LLC("TowerNorth")and Verizon Central LLC("Verizon")seek Conditional Use
Permit approval to construct a 275-foot wireless communications tower with a five(5)foot lightning rod
on the property located on State Highway 77 with a property tax ID number of 57-024-2-41-06-OS-2 03-
000-000010.The purpose of the facility is to allow Verizon to improve its customer experience in the
vicinity of the proposed facility. The property is located in Sawyer County and the property is zoned
Agriculture One(A-1). The property is owned by Michael J.Anderson and Laura M.Bredemus.
Verizon's antenna and ancillary equipment will be mounted at the 270'elevation. The tower will be
capable of holding four additional co-locators at lower elevations.The tower will be enclosed within a 75'
x 75'fenced area within the 100'x 100'lease area. Within the compound,Verizon will install its ground
equipment along with a generator and hand hole/pull box for its fiber equipment.The compound will be
enclosed by a fence and accessed only through a locked gate. The site is an unmanned facility;therefore,
no water or sewage service is necessary.The tower and compound will be accessed from State Highway
77(see Exhibit A).
If Sawyer County approves the Conditional Use Permit for TowerNorth and Verizon,the enhancement of
Sawyer County's public safety system and the improved E-911 services from Verizon will improve public
safety in the County. A few reasons for the need and benefit of the installation to the community are
below:
• More than 75%of prospective home buyers prefer strong cellular connections when
buying a home(Rootmetrics,June 2015).
• 35%of Americans reach for their smartphone first in the morning(CTIA,July 2015),
underscoring the importance of in-building coverage.
• In the United States,mobile data traffic will grow 7-fold from 2014 to 2019,a compound
annual growth rate of 47%.(Cisco VNI Mobile Forecast Highlights,2014-2019,October
2015)
• In the US,there are 355 million wireless devices for 319 million residents.(CTIA,"Facts
and Infographics,June 2015�.
Robust public safety services enhance the general welfare of the community by reducing emergency
responder's response times to life/safety emergencies.

RE: Proposed 275' Sabre Self-Supporting Tower for WI1020-A Hwy 77, WI
Dear Ms. Rutkowski,
Upon receipt of order, we propose to design a tower for the above referenced project for a Basic Wind
Speed of 106 mph and 50 mph with 1.5" radial ice, Risk Category II, Exposure Category C, and
Topographic Category t in accordance with the Telecommunications Industry Association Standard
ANSI/TIA-222-H, "Structural Standard for Antenna Supporting Structures and Antennas".
When designed according to this standard, the wind pressures and steel strength capacities include
several safety factors. Therefore, it is highly unlikely that the tower will fail structurally in a wind event
where the design wind speed is exceeded within the range of the built-in safety factors.
Should the wind speed increase beyond the capacity of the built-in safety factors, to the point of failure of
one or more structural elements, the most likely location of the failure would be within one or more of the
tower members in the upper portion. This would result in a buckling failure mode, where the loaded
member would bend beyond its elastic limit (beyond the point where the member would return to its
original shape upon removal of the wind load).
Therefore, it is likely that the overall effect of such an extreme wind event would be localized buckling of a
tower section. Assuming that the wind pressure profile is similar to that used to design the tower, the
tower is most likely to buckle at the location of the highest combined stress ratio in the upper portion of the
tower. This would result in the portion of the tower above the failure location "folding over" onto the portion
of the tower below the failure location. Please note that this letter only applies to the above referenced
tower designed and manufactured by Sabre Towers & Poles. In the unlikely event of total separation, this
would result in a fall radius less than or equal to 65 feet. �SCON

Dear Mr. Kozlowski,
After evaluating Verizon Wireless's search area in which it is seeking to instafl new telecommunication
antennas, no existing structures were located that would allow Verizon to achieve its network objective.As a
result, the proposed telecommunications tower facility is required to allow Verizon to improve its customer
experience and address its network objective.
If you have any questions regarding this request, please contact me directly at (630)746-5433 or

Sincerely,
Trish Gray
Agent on Behalf of Verizon Wireless
