SUMMARY STATEMENT:
The Zoning Code currently includes a conditional use permit for wireless communication facilities. This
new chapter of the code would provide additional needed provisions for the types of wireless technology
that has been reviewed in the past, as well as set the stage for the anticipated innovation in this technology
in the coming years. The Federal oversight of wireless communication siting is primarily based on three
federal laws.
On March 3, 2020, the McCall Area Planning and Zoning Commission held a public hearing, considered
the ordinance and recommended to the City Council and County Commissioners that the ordinance be
approved with two minor corrections. Since that time, based on comments from the Public Works
department, some additional amendments have been included. Substantive changes are noted in the
summary attached. The City Attorney reviewed and drafted the ordinance.
The Summary Letter, Attachment A, and the Ordinance are attached.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
1. Hold the public hearing.
2. Suspend the rules and Read by title only, one-time only Ordinance ____.
3. Adopt Ordinance No ____, Updating McCall City Code Title 3 Chapter 19 Wireless Facilities
Communication, approve the publication of the summary, and authorize the Mayor to sign all
necessary documents.
