RE: WIRELESS FACILITIES IN THE PUBLIC RIGHT-OF-WAY
Address Public right-of-way adjacent to 2301 (CS) Channel Road
(Pole ID SLC0007)
Dear Mr. Critchlow,
The City of Newport Beach has been notified that AT&T plans to submit applications for
small cell equipment at several SCE utility poles within the City’s public right-of-way as
noted above. The City of Newport Beach must always be mindful of preserving the
attractive aesthetic our City boasts.
As part of our review, we wanted to let you know that the City of Newport Beach will not
permit an above-grade meter pedestal, meter socket, or AC panel to be installed as part
of the Small Cell deployment AT&T, or any other company, is proposing. The City will
require a minimization of impacts for aesthetic and public right-of-way access reasons as
follows:
1. Section 20.49.050 (General Development and Design Standards), Subsection
F(6)(b) (Support Equipment, Installations in a Public Right-of-Way) requires
support equipment to be placed or mounted in the least visually obtrusive location
practicable. This section states that support equipment in the right-of-way shall be
placed underground if required by other provisions of the Municipal Code in flush -
to-grade underground vault enclosures, including flush-to-grade vents, or vents
that extend no more than twenty-four inches above the finished grade and are
screened from public view.
2. Section 13.20.030 (City Policies Regarding Use of the PROW), Subsection B
(Limits on Above-Ground Facilities) limits the number and controls the location of
above ground facilities used in conjunction with underground facilities consistent
with the technical requirements for providing high quality utility service. Companies
shall place all newly installed facilities underground or flush mounted vaults,
whenever feasible. Companies shall coordinate with all affected property owners

to locate all newly installed AGF to minimize inconvenience and disruption to
residents.
Please note, issuance of this letter does not guarantee automatic approval of the
antennas as proposed.
Thank you for your consideration. Please contact me at 949-644-3249 or
mnova@newportbeachca.gov with any questions.
Sincerely,

COASTAL DEVELOPMENT PERMIT EXEMPTION LETTER

1387 Calle Avanzado
San Clemente, CA 92673
forozco@interlinkpg.com
Application No. Minor Use Permit No. UP2019-043 (PA2019-150)
Address Public right-of-way adjacent to 2301 [CS] Channel Road (SLC0007)
Project Description: Installation of a telecommunication devices on an existing street light. More
specifically, the project includes: 1) replacement of an existing, approximately 25-foot high City of
Newport Beach concrete streetlight, 2) installation of four remote radio units, a raycap disconnect,
and an omni-directional antenna within a 12-inch diameter equipment shroud at the top of the
streetlight at 28 feet, 3 inches in height, and 3) installation of a handhole and fiber box below grade
adjacent to the streetlight. The project requires a minor use permit for AT&T small cell
telecommunications on Streetlight No. 0007. The development will not result in an increase in luminaire
height and the location of the existing utility pole will remain the same.
This letter is to certify that this location and/or proposed project has been reviewed by City of Newport
Beach Planning Division. A coastal development permit is not necessary for this project because the
proposed development is an improvement to a structure other than a single -family residence or
public works facility and is not subject to a permit requirement (Section 21.52.035 (Projects Exempt
from Coastal Development Permit Requirements), Subsection C2). The proposed project is not
anticipated to involve a risk of adverse environmental effect, adversely affect public access, or
involve a change in land use contrary to the Coastal Act.
Please be advised that only the project described above is exempt from the permit requirements for
a Coastal Development Permit. Any change in the project may cause it to lose its exempt status.
This certification is based on information provided by the re cipient of this letter. If, at a later date, this
information is found to be incorrect or incomplete, this letter will become invalid, and any
development occurring at that time must cease until a coastal development permit is obtained.
