Councilmember Rossbach introduced the following Ordinance and moved its adoption: INTERIM ORDINANCE N0. 744 AN ORDINANCE FOR PROTECTING THE PLANNING PROCESS AND THE HEALTH, SAFETY, AND WELFARE OF CITY RESIDENTS AND ESTABLISHING A TEMPORARY MORATORIUM ON ANTENNAS, TOWERS, OR ANY EQUIPMENT USED FOR TRANSMITTING OR RECEIVING TELECOMMUNICATION, TELEVISION OR RADIO SIGNALS WITHIN THE CITY The Maplewood City Council approves the following Ordinance: Section 1. Purpose. The purpose of this Ordinance is to establish a temporary moratorium on antennas and towers or any equipment used for transmitting or receiving telecommunication, television or radio signals. Maplewood's Ordinance does not contemplate or adequately address the classification of telecommunication towers, antennas and similar uses and structures. The City's Zoning Ordinance is unclear about where these uses should be located and whether the City should adopt a new classification or standards for those uses. Besides the proper zoning classification of such uses, there are several significant planning and land use issues about the regulation of such uses, including the following: 1. The particular zoning districts in which the City should allow such uses as either permitted or conditional uses. 2. The concentration and setback issues of such uses in the City and its neighborhoods. 3. The information required with regard to the structural standards and compliance with FAA, FCC and other requirements. 4. The effect and safety issues related to these uses on other uses in the surrounding area. There is need for City staff to do a study so the City can adopt a set of comprehensive plans and land use zoning regulations about such uses. Such a study will address the land use and zoning issues, including those referenced above. The study also will address the City's licensing regulations about such uses and the extent to which the licensing regulations require changes to maintain harmony and consistency between the zoning and licensing regulations. As such, there is a need for the City Council to adopt an Interim Ordinance to protect the planning process and the health, safety and welfare of the citizens of the City. This also is to ensure that Maplewood and its citizens keep the benefits of the City's Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinance until the City finishes such a study. There is a need to restrict such uses until the City finishes such a study and has adopted any changes to the City's zoning and land use regulations. As such, the Maplewood City Council has directed the staff to do such a study. 12 12-18-95 Section 2. Restrictions. Minnesota Statutes, Section 462.355, Subdivision 4, permits the adoption of interim zoning ordinances during the study and planning process. As such, pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Section 462.355, Subdivision 4, Maplewood shall not allow the expansion, opening or establishment of, or accept applications for, equipment used for transmitting or receiving telecommunication, television or radio signals. Section 3. Planning and Zoning Study; Moratorium. The Maplewood City Council authorizes City staff to do a study to decide how the City should regulate towers and antennas and other similar uses within Maplewood. This study should include, but is not limited to, the following: 1. The particular zoning districts in which the City should allow such uses as either permitted or conditional uses. 2. The concentration and setback issues of such uses in the City and its neighborhoods. 3. The information required with regard to the structural standards. and compliance with FAA, FCC and other requirements. 4. The effect and safety issues related to these uses on other uses in the surrounding area. 5. The need, if any, to create licensing regulations pertaining to receiving and transmitting towers, antennas and similar uses. Upon finishing the study, the Planning Commission will review the matter and make recommendations to the City Council. Section 4. Term. The term of this Ordinance shall be one year or until such time as the Council adopts and Ordinance relating to towers and antennas. Section 5. Effective Date. This Ordinance shall take effect after adoption and publication. Seconded by Councilmember Carlson Ayes - all J. NEW BUSINESS 1. Metropolitan Livable Communities Act - 1996 Goals a.
