The problems encountered with this application
are typical when a private residence is converted to commercial use. The TAB has endorsed the use for weddings,
receptions and other social gatherings at this location. The original application was approved with a
number of conditions to reduce the impact on the neighborhood.
The TAB is very concerned that all necessary
permits and licenses have not been obtained since the original PC approval in
December, 2009. There is an active CCPRO
violation for operating a banquet and weeding facility without the proper
permits.

The applicant indicates this request is
necessary to provide service to customers along the corridor because existing
fiber optic lines are at capacity. New
lines are needed to provide reliable service to customers. The request is due
to the high costs of underground construction. If approved, the applicant will
agree to remove and relocate the overhead lines along this route at such time
the County requires all lines to relocate underground.

TEXT
AMENDMENT to amend
Chapter 30.52, Section 30.52.060 to allow new utility line attachments to
existing or exempt poles.
The applicant is requesting the code be
amended to allow the attachment of new utility lines to existing or exempt
utility poles without a waiver. The
applicant has requested allowing aerial attachments as long as space and safety
requirements are met with the pole owner.
If removal or retirement of utility poles occurs, attachments will be
relocated underground.
This item generated considerable discussion
between the TAB and the staff. The key
points are:
·
County
policy is to move all utilities underground.
·
Underground
utilities are very expensive compared to above ground.
·
There
are currently 8 exemptions to County standards.
·
Some
major players, including NV Energy and the County, are totally exempt
·
Smaller
players are required to obtain a waiver
·
Replacement
of current utility poles is considered maintenance
·
It
is highly unlikely current utility poles will be eliminated due to the current
exemptions and policy implementation
The TAB conclusion is the current county
policy is full of holes. The net effect
is the small player or a private individual is required to place their
utilities underground at a considerable cost not incurred to the exempt
players. Also, the current policy, as it
is implemented, will not make significant progress in placing utilities
underground.
Until such time as the exemptions are
eliminated and all utility lines are required to be placed underground, it not
fair to require some individuals to comply and others not.
The TAB supports this TA to eliminate the
waiver requirement in the current code.
