Minutes from the March 21, 2018 Planning & Zoning Commission
Mobilitie
Special Use for a personal wireless communication facility
03/21 /2018
MINUTES OF THE REGULAR MEETING OF THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION OF THE
VILLAGE OF BUFFALO GROVE HELD IN THE COUNCIL CHAMBERS, 50 RAUPP BOULEVARD,
BUFFALO GROVE, ILLINOIS ON WEDNESDAY, MARCH 21, 2018
Call to Order
The meeting was called to order at 7:32 PM by Chairman Frank Cesario
Public Hearings/Items For Consideration
2. Consider Approval of a Special Use for a Personal Wireless Communication Facility
(Small Cell Antenna) (Trustee Ottenheimer) (Staff Contact: Chris Stilling)
Ms. Came Lindenberg, Mobilitie, LLC, 120 S. Riverside Plaza, Suite 1800, Chicago, iL
60606, was present and swom in.
Ms. Lindenberg reviewed the request to install a small cell antenna on an existing ComEd
utility pole located in the Dundee Road right-of-way in the R-1 District.
Com. Moodhe asked if the antenna will be omni-directional. Ms. Lindenberg responded
yes. Com. Moodhe asked who the provider is. Ms. Lindenberg advised that the provider
will be Sprint. Com. Moodhe asked staff is there could be other providers requesting
small cell antennas to be located in the same general area. Mr. Stilling advised that it is
very likely. ComEd already utilized similar equipment for their Smart Meter program.
Com. Moodhe asked if there are distance requirements between antennas. Mr. Stilling
advised no, not at this time. The State is still finalizing their regulations pertaining to small
cell antennas.
Com. Goldspiel asked if the existing antenna located across Dundee Road would
interfere with this small cell antenna. Ms. Lindenberg responded no.
Ch. Cesario asked how many antennas would be installed. Ms. Lindenberg advised only
one (1) antenna would be installed.
Ch. Cesario asked if staff has receiving any feedback from the public. Mr. Stilling has not
received any objections.
There were no additional questions or comments from the Commissioners. There were
no questions or comments from the audience.
Ch. Cesario entered the Staff Report dated March 21, 2018 as Exhibit 1.
The public hearing was closed at 7.48 PM.
03/21/2018
Moved by Com. Weinstein, seconded by Com. Lesser, to make a positive
recommendation to the Village Board to approve the special use, subject to the following
conditions:
1. The proposed antenna shall substantially conform to the plans attached hereto as a part
of this petition.
2. The special use is granted solely to Mobilitie, LLC and said special use does not run with
the land. In the event that the antenna is no longer operational, it shall be removed within
6 months after it has been deemed to be non -operational.
Com. Moodhe believes that this will be a frequent request going forward. He would rather
see a small cell antenna than a large tower.
Com. Cohn stated that previously the Village developed a draft ordinance concerning
regulating small cell antennas and believes that staff should revisit that until the State
finalizes their regulations.
RESULT: RECOMMENDATION TO APPROVE [UNANIMOUS]
Next: 4/16/2018 7:30 PM
MOVER: Mitchell Weinstein, Commissioner
SECONDER: Scott Lesser, Commissioner
AYES: Moodhe, Cesario, Cohn, Goldspiel, Lesser, Weinstein, Au
