RE: AT&T Application for a Minor Use Permit to place a Small Cell Wireless Facility at the following
location: 606 [CS] Avocado Avenue (SLC4735); AT&T Site ID HBNPB_042 and FA No. 14807371
Dear Mr. Benjamin Zdeba:
New Cingular Wireless PCS, LLC d/b/a AT&T Mobility {"AT&T") submits the enclosed application materials, for
Minor Use Permit UP2019-027 {PA2019-108), in response to comments received on December 19, 2019.
Application Review
Under federal law, the City must determine whether the application is complete within 10 days and take final
action on the application within 90 days from this submittal {the "shot clock"). See 47 C.F.R. § 1.6003. Within the
same period of time, the city must also take action with respect to all necessary authorizations and approvals for
construction and operation ofthe proposed small cell. The shot clock begins today and runs unless or until it is
tolled, either by mutual agreement or based on a timely and proper notice that the application is materially
incomplete. To toll the shot clock for incompleteness, the city must, within ten days, identify in writing the missing
information that is required by local codes or other published application guidelines. In the case of a timely and
proper incomplete notice, the shot clock stops and restarts at day O once AT&T submits the additional information
required. If an application is deemed incomplete a second time, the shot clock does not reset; instead, it is tolled,
and then after resubmittal, it continues to run until a decision is made. If the City fails to act before the shot clock
expires, the City will be in violation of state and federal laws.
• This response to comments was filed on January 17, 2020
• Notification of incompleteness is due by January 27, 2020
• Absent tolling, the City must take final action by April 7, 2020
The following documents are being submitted for your review:
1. Response to Comment Letters for the following departments: Planning, Real Estate, Public Works and
Utilities
2. One (1) Construction Drawings {24" x 36" format)
3. Five (5) Construction Drawings {11" x 17" format)
4. Electronic copies are provided via Email / Dropbox.
I look forward to working with you to complete these wireless communications projects in Newport Beach.
