Mr. Strickler stated the mission is to have the technical staff of each mllllicipality work together
with the industry, either pes or cellular, to develop a plan to minimize towers now and in the
future and report back in 6 weeks because this has already been ac.com.plished in South Florida.
. o(\~Motion made by Commissioner Brender that each one of us take back to our respective
tf'ct\\"~-<em..i8si8:a9"'a. Fequest from CALNO to encourage each city to appoint a planner to
e.O~- participate within 30 days to work together with the industry, either pes or cellular, to
develop a plan to minimize towers now and in tbe future and let the cities go out and do
this within 30 days and see wbat they come up ~ith. Motion seconded by l\fr. Strickler.
It was decided that staff would coordinate the meetings an,d determine what needs to be
accomplished after they are given direction related to where they need to end up. Commissioner
OeIUlell questioned when they should expect results. It was determined they should report back
to each City before their second meeting in November, some kind of commission approval 01
least an overview of how this can be accomplished and let the commissioners in their last
meeting in November say they like the way staff says it can be done to solve the problem and
then give direction to go accomplish this. Commissioner GeIUlell questioned if this would result
in an interlocal agreement. It was pointed out it may end up that way and would probably be
more effective, but that staff could determine this.
Motion carried unanimously.
