Rescue Committee’s role in assisting with a plan for repayment of the loans, an opt-in
option for businesses to chose which path they would prefer for repayment, pressing for

public benefit that could be offered to the public from the business, funds were not from
the EDLF fund but were from the General Fund, a public benefit analysis would be
required for any loan that was converted to a grant, educating the borrowers that the City
was trying to recoup the funds in order to offer loans to other businesses, options for the
businesses to repay or ask for forgiveness of the loans, options for deferment and creating
a process/criteria for forgiveness of loans, and possibility of a discount to business that
repay prior to December 31, 2024.

Minutes:
Sylvia Richards and Mark Stephens presented the proposal highlighting:
• Proposed design standards for small cell wireless facilities
◦ Small Wireless Facilities (SWF) will be installed on an existing or
replacement utility pole when one is available rather than on a new
freestanding pole
◦ The aesthetic of any SWF will blend into the surroundings to the extent
possible (matching color, height and fluting of existing poles including in
historic districts)
◦ Installations in residential neighborhoods will be minimized by requiring
new facility locations to prioritize locations on busier collector streets rather
than local streets, and if an installation is permitted on a local street, it will
be located at the intersection of property lines and not in the public way
behind the sidewalk (where a sidewalk exists);
◦ SWF will be installed in a public alley on an existing utility pole when
available rather than on the street
• If adopted by Council, then the design standards would be updated to reflect the
ordinance. Design standards will change as technology changes
• Federal and State laws and rules give telecommunication providers the right to
install facilities in the public-right-of-way subject to municipal regulations
Council Members thanked staff for the hard work to address the utility poles, asked about
enforcement if the poles were not meeting the standards. Mark Stephens reviewed the
approval process and the design standards that would be applied during the application
and construction phases.

Stephens reviewed the options for helping to camouflage the poles within neighborhoods.
