A REPORT TO THE PLANNING COMMISSION
P.C. AGENDA OF: July 15, 2009
ItemNo. 8
Application complete date: April 20, 2009
Project Planner: Shelley Esteybar
Project Engineer: David Rick
SUBJECT: CUP 08-10 -7412 CADENCIA RESIDENCE -Request for approval of a
Conditional Use Permit to allow the continued operation of an existing Wireless
Communications Facility consisting of two wall-mounted equipment cabinets and
three panel antennas housed within a faux chimney on the roof of an existing
single family residence located at 7412 Cadencia Street in Local Facilities
Management Zone 6.
I. RECOMMENDATION
That the Planning Commission ADOPT Planning Commission Resolution No. 6599
APPROVING CUP 08-10 based upon the findings and subject to the conditions contained
therein.
II. INTRODUCTION
This Conditional Use Permit will allow for the continued operation of an existing unmanned
Wireless Communications Facility consisting of two wall-mounted equipment cabinets and three
PCS panel antennas housed within a faux chimney on the roof of an existing single family
residence located at 7412 Cadencia Street. The original Conditional Use Permit (CUP 99-11) for
this use expired on April 4, 2005 prior to the applicant submitting a CUP extension application.
Accordingly, a new conditional use permit application is required to allow the continued
operation of the use.
The project complies with City Standards and all necessary findings can be made for the
approval being requested. The Planning Commission is the final decision making body for this
project.
III. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND BACKGROUND
On April 5, 2000, the Planning Commission approved Conditional Use Permit No. CUP 99-11 to
allow the construction of a Wireless Communication Facility consisting of two wall mounted
equipment cabinets and three panel antennas housed within a faux chimney on the roof of an
existing single family residence located at 7412 Cadencia Street. Condition No. 8 of the
approving Conditional Use Permit Planning Commission Resolution No. 4'750 specifies that
CUP 99-11 is granted for a period of five years but may be extended upon written application of
the permittee. Because the applicant did not submit an extension application in a timely manner
as required, a new Conditional Use Permit (CUP) is required to request the continued operation
of the Wireless Communication Facility.

Staff has historically performed annual reviews of the project in accordance with the conditions
of approval. At each of the annual inspections, the project site was determined to be in
compliance with the conditions of approval, including maintaining a stealth design and FCC
compliance, and no formal written complaints were submitted.
Staff has received one letter and two phone calls from surrounding neighbors in opposition to the
new CUP application and one phone call in favor of the new CUP application. The issues raised
by the neighbors in opposition include potential health and property value impacts. The
applicant has addressed these issues by submitting an updated Radio Frequency (RF) Emissions
Report (see Attachment 8) to ensure that the RF emissions do not exceed the FCC guidelines.
The report indicates that the RF emissions of the T-Mobile antennas will be well below the FCC
standard for continuous public exposure. Given the low levels of radiofrequency exposure, there
is no scientific basis to conclude that harmful health effects will attend the utilization of this
telecommunication facility. In addition, the perceived depreciation of property values can only
be a result of Radio Frequency (RF) radiation exposure, which legally, cannot be considered.
Therefore, the Planning Department recommends approval of the new Conditional Use Permit
(CUP 08-1 0) to allow the continued operation of the "stealth" Wireless Communication Facility
located at 7412 Cadencia Street.
The City Council adopted a policy (City Council Policy No. 64) regarding prioritization for the
location of Wireless Communication Facilities (WCF) within the City on October 3, 2001. The
guidelines state that WCFs should be located on buildings and structures, not on vacant land. In
addition, preferred locations of WCFs, in order of priority, are industrial, commercial, public,
other non-residential, public utility, park, or community facility property.
The project site is located in the Planned Community (P-C) "residential" zone. Residential zones
are considered "discouraged locations" under the City Council Policy No. 64 Guidelines.
However, WCFs may be located in "discouraged locations" if the applicant demonstrates that no
feasible alternative site exists within a preferred location. The applicant submitted coverage
maps identifying the coverage needs for the facility (see Attachment No. 6 and 7). The areas
requiring coverage are the surrounding residential properties. The applicant has demonstrated
that there are no other properties within the vicinity that have a non-residential or open space
land use designation, and are at a high enough elevation to meet the required WCF coverage
objectives as the existing site. The nearby SDG&E towers to the north are not a feasible
alternative in that the property is also located in a non-preferred location (open space) and
placing a WCF on the towers could create significant visual impacts to surrounding neighbors.
The design guidelines of City Council Policy No. 64 require that all aspects of a WCF, including
the supports, antennas, screening methods, and equipment should exhibit "stealth" design
techniques so they visually blend into the background or the surface onto which they are
mounted. The policy encourages collocation wherever feasible and appropriate. No feasible
place for collocation exists within the required coverage area. The project complies with the
policy design guidelines in that the facility, consisting of three panel antennas and two (2)
equipment cabinets, exhibits "stealth" design. The existing panel antennas are fully concealed
inside a 4' x 4' x 4' -8" high faux chimney. The accessory equipment is located on the northern
rear side of the residential home within wall-mounted cabinets painted to match the exterior of
the structure, and therefore blended into the existing architecture.

That the requested use is necessary or desirable for the development of the community, is
essentially in harmony with the various elements and objectives of the General Plan, and
is not detrimental to existing uses specifically permitted in the zone in which the
proposed use is located, in that the General Plan recognizes that these types of facilities
are necessary and essential to the infrastructural support of urban land uses. Pacific Bell
Wireless indicates that the proposed PCS facility's calculated worst case radio frequency
power density is well below the FCC standard; therefore, the project would not be
detrimental in that it would not have a significant adverse impact on public health. The
proposed panel antennas and accessory equipment would not be aesthetically detrimental
since they are housed within a faux chimney on the roof of a residential structure and
within wall mounted cabinets painted to match the exterior of the structure, and are
therefore blended into the existing architecture.
That the site for the intended use is adequate in size and shape to accommodate the use, in
that no alteration of the residential lot would be required beyond the existing
improvements.
That all the yards, setbacks, walls, fences, landscaping, and other features necessary to
adjust the requested use to existing or permitted future uses in the neighborhood will be
provided and maintained, in that the PCS antennas will be housed within a faux
chimney on the roof of the structure and within wall mounted cabinets along the
northern exterior of the structure.
That the street system serving the proposed use is adequate to properly handle all traffic
generated by the proposed use, in that the project would generate only one trip per month
for maintenance.
The Planning Commission bas reviewed each of the exactions imposed on the
Developer contained in this resolution, and hereby finds, in this case, that the
exactions are imposed to mitigate impacts caused by or reasonably related to the
project, and the extent and the degree of the exaction is in rough proportionality to
the impact caused by the project.
Conditions:
Note: Unless otherwise specified herein, all conditions shall be satisfied prior to building
permit.
L If any of the following conditions fail to occur; or if they are, by their terms, to 1e
implemented and maintained over time, ~f 1.EJ ·.:;~ :;"..::b conditions fail to be so
implemented and maintained according to their terms, the City shall have the right to
revoke or modify all approvals herein granted; deny or further condition issuance of all
future building permits; deny, revoke or further condition all certificates of occupancy
issued under the authority of approvals herein granted; institute and prosecute litigation to
compel their compliance with said conditions or seek damages for their violation. No
vested rights are gained by Developer or a successor in interest by the City's approval of
this ConditionallT~e Permit.

CUP 99-11 -7412 Cadencia
Overview of Coverage Objectives
RF Engineers from Pacific Bell Wrreless (PBW) have identified the subject property at 7412 Cadencia in the City of Carlsbad
as a key site in improving wireless coverage in the eastern portion of La Costa, extending to Rancho Santa Fe. Currently, PBW
possess poor to variable signal strength due to moderate to steep topography, characteristic of the La Costa area.
The comprehensive solution for improving coverage in the La Costa area involves a multiple site approach. The attached site
inventory map illustrates tlrree sites that together form the critical backbone for improved service and customer coverage. Site
SD-333 (La Costa Ave. and El Camino Real) along with site SD-367 (Alga Rd. and El Camino Real) are designed to primarily
serve the northwest and southwest portions of La Costa with an emphasis on improving in-building coverage to businesses and
residences in these particular areas. The subject site, SD-369 has been designed to eliminate very weak or non-existent
coverage along a significant stretch of La Costa Ave. and to provide in-building coverage to the easterly residential portion of La
Costa.
The technical goal is to not only improve signal quality along La Costa Avenue but to expand coverage into hard to cover
secondary residential streets serving this largely residential area. The present design at the proposed PCS facility relies upon
the physical attributes of the natural topography that allows for line of sight to the primary coverage area. This site location is
unique in that RF Engineers are able to take advantage of its natural ground elevation, lack of obstructions, and minimal
interference from neighboring PCS sites.
Pacific Bell is proposing to conceal 3 relatively small panel antennas within a faux chimney ( 4' wide and 4' deep), to be located
along the front roofline (west elevation). The chimney is designed to be 4'-8" high with a small metal ornamental vent to match
the look of the existing vents, textured and painted to match the existing residence. An existing real 3' high chimney along the
front elevation will be raised approximately 18" to be the same height as the proposed faux chimney.
Alternative Sites Considered
In the initial review for how to improve coverage, it became clear early on that a site was necessary in the easterly portion of La
Costa. In the preliminary site investigation phase, PBW engineers and planners explored the feasibility of utilizing existing
commercial, industrial or institutional land uses for siting of a new facility.
In this case the closest commercial properties are at locations where the two westerly PCS sites are currently proposed. As
previously noted, these sites do not provide sufficient coverage necessary to eliminate the need for a facility in east La Costa.
As a result, alternative sites within the search area were limited to existing residences and SDG&E transmission towers. The
ultimate decision not to pursue the transmission towers was based primarily on the following: 1) Physical Access, 2)
Construction Constraints and 3) Potential for Visual hnpacts.
Due to steep slopes and the likely need for grading for access purposes, PBW felt that the transmission towers would create
severe access and construction issues for both initial construction as well as on-going maintenance by technical operations staff.
However, the most important factor in PBWs decision not to utilize the transmission towers was that the antennas and
appurtenant co-axial cable would be visible from adjacent properties. Additionally, the BTS radio equipment cabinets would
also be partially visible from some properties as well.
For the reasons noted above, the decision to implement a completely stealth or invisible;rrchitecturally integrated design on an
existing residence was made. Specifically, the residential structure at 7412 Cadencia offered PBWs architects the opportunity
to design a new chimney element, which was generally consistent with the other 3 chimneys. Moreover, the design and
physical placement of the home will ensure that no views from adjacent or up-slope homes will be affected. Lastly, the BTS
cabinets will be located in the rear of the property, screened from view.

Introduction
June 26, 2008
At your request, I have measured the current cumulative maximum radiofrequency, (RF), power density
from the T-Mobile (TM) wireless telecommunications ·site, (referenced as SD06369) located at 7412
Cadencia Street, Carlsbad; California, as depicted in attachment 1.
Site measurements were made to included all ambient sources ofRF exposures including the contribution
from other wireless facilities. This information was used to determine compliance with Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) requirements for RF public exposure safety.
This TM telecommunication site utilizes directional transmit panel antennae configured in three (3) sectors.
The antennae are facade mounted within a faux chimney subject building, with their RF emissions center
at least 14 feet above grade directed at 18 (sector A), 250 (sector B) and 330 (sector C) degrees true north.
The antennas specified are EMS Wireless model# DR65-18-00DPL2Q, for all sectors. The sectorized
antennas are designed to transmit with an effective radiated power (ERP) of up to 800 watts per sector within
a bandwidth between approximately1,850 and 1,990 MHz (PCS frequencies).
-RF Exposure Measurement Methods & Results
The measurements at the subject property were made during the afternoon on June 26, 2008 utilizing a
Narda Industries model8718B broadband exposure meter (serial number 6062)with an associated frequency
shaped B8742D probe (serial number 08002). Weather conditions during the measurement period were fair
and the temperatures were moderate. Outdoor measurements were made at locations of highest potential
public exposure and surrounding area. All measurements were made in accordance with the manufacturer's
recommendations as provided in their users guide for this instrument. This included an RF response check
to assure that the meter and probe were responding appropriately to an RF energy source. This response
check was performed immediately before and after the site measurements and, along with other operational
parameters, were found to be operating normally as specified by the manufacturer. In addition, all
environmental operating conditions, as specified by the manufacturer for this instrument, were satisfied. The
probe and meter were calibrated by the manufacturer with standards traceable to the U.S. National Institute
of Standards and Technology (NIST) on August 23, 2007. In accordance with the manufacturer's
recommendations, the next calibration will be due prior to August 23, 2009.

/ (
The Narda meter/probe combination senses fields within the frequency range from 300kHz to 3 GHz and
indicates exposure as a percentage of the FCC public exposure standard. The dynamic range of the
instrument is between 0.6% and 600% of the FCC public exposure standard. For PCS frequencies, this
response range equates to a power density range between 6 fl. W /cm2 and 6 m W /cm2• Reading obtained below
0.6% MPE are reported as the minimum range ofthe instrument(i.e., 0.6% MPE). The data supplied by the
manufacturer sets the frequency response of the probe as± 1 dB and calibration accuracy and isotropicity
as± 0.5 dB and± 1 dB respectively. The probe is isotropic, meaning that it can directly measure the strength
of complicated fields independent of the orientation, polarization, or arrival angle.
Measurements were made from ground level to head height ( ~6 feet) above the ground. The probe was swept
over approximately ± 3 feet to avoid destructive interference thus assuring the highest power density was
being measured at a given location. A continuous observation of the exposure allowed the location of the
maximum power densities to be determined. During the survey the meter displayed RF exposure levels
between 0.0055 and 1.5964% of the FCC public exposure safety standard. Thus the maximum
environmental RF exposure measurement result, at all locations, was recorded as 1.6% of the FCC public
exposure safety standards for continuous exposure.
In so far as it was not possible to determine if all antennae at the site were transmitting at maximum power
during the measurements, a conservative multiple of five (5) was applied to all reading in order to assure
that maximum potential exposures would not exceed the values provided in this report. Even with the
conservative multiple of five applied to the measured value (i.e., 1.6%) the exposures would still be below
the public MPE (i.e., 8.0%).
A chart of the electromagnetic spectrum and a comparison of RF power densities from various common
sources is presented in figures two and three respectively in order to place exposures from PCS
telecommunications systems in perspective.
RF Exposure Standards
The two most widely recognized standards for protection against RF field exposure are those published by
the American National Standards Ipstitute (ANSI) C95.1 and the National Council on Radiation Protection
and measurement (NCRP) report #86.
The NCRP is a private, congressionally chartered institution with the charge to provide expert analysis of
a variety of issues (especially health and safety recOmmendations) on radiations of all forms. The scientific
analyses of the NCRP are held in high esteem in the scientific and regulatory community both nationally and
internationally. In fact, the vast majority of the radiological health regulations currently in existence can
trace their origin, in some way, to the recommendations of the NCRP.
All RF exposure standards are frequency-specific, in recognition of the differential absorption ofRF energy
as a function of frequency. The most restrictive exposure levels in the standards are associated with those
frequencies that are most readily absorbed in humans. Maximum absorption occurs at approximately 80
MHz in adults. The NCRP maximum allowable continuous occupational exposure at this frequency is
1,000 f.1.W/cm2• This compares to 5,000 f.1.W/cm 2 at the most restrictive of the PCS frequencies (~1,800
MHz) that are absorbed much less efficiently than exposures in the VHF TV band.
2
( (
The traditional NCRP philosophy of providing a higher standard of protection for members of the general
population compared to occupationally exposed individuals, prompted a two-tiered safety standard by which
levels of allowable exposure were substantially reduced for "uncontrolled " (e.g., public) and continuous
exposures. This measure was taken to account for the fact that workers in an industrial environment are
typically exposed no more than eight hours a day while members of the general population in proximity to
a source ofRF radiation may be exposed continuously. This additional protection factor also provides a
greater margin of safety for children, the infirmed, aged, or others who might be more sensitive to RF
exposure. After several years of evaluating the national and international scientific and biomedical
literature, the members of the NCRP scientific committee selected 931 publications in the peer-reviewed
scientific literature on which to base their recommendations. The current NCRP recommendations limit
continuous public exposure at PCS frequencies to 1,000 1-L W/cm2, and to 200 tJ. W/cm2 for the most restrictive
frequencies (e.g., VHF TV band).
The 1992 ANSI standard was developed by Scientific Coordinating Committee 28 (SCC 28) under the
auspices of the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE). This standard, entitled "IEEE
Standards for Safety Levels with Respect to Human Exposure to Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields,
3 kHz to 300 GHz" (IEEE C95.1-1991 ), was issued in April 1992 and subsequently adopted by ANSI. A
revision of this standard (C95.1 2005) was completed in October 2005 by SCC 39 the IEEE International
Committee on Electromagnetic Safety. Their recommendations are similar to the NCRP recommendation
for the maximum permissible exposure (MPE) to the public at cellular and PCS frequencies (410 tJ.W/cm2
and 950 tJ. W/cm2 for continuous exposure at 820 MHz and 1,900 MHz respectively) and incorporates the
convention of providing for a greater margin of safety for public as compared with occupational exposure.
Higher whole body exposures are allowed for brief periods provided that no 30 minute time-weighted
average exposure exceeds these aforementioned limits.
On August 9, 1996, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) established a RF exposure standard
that is a hybrid of the current ANSI and NCRP standards. The maximum permissible exposure values used
to assess environmental exposures are those of the NCRP (i.e., maximum public continuous exposure atPCS
frequencies of 1,000 tJ. W/cm2). The FCC issued these standards in order to address its responsibilities under
the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) to consider whether its actions will "significantly affect the
quality of the human environment." In as far as there was no other standard issued by a federal agency such
as the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the FCC utilized their rulemaking procedure to consider
which standards should be adopted. The FCC received thousands of pages of comments over a three-year
review period from a variety of sources including the public, academia, federal health and safety agencies
(e.g., EPA & FDA) and the telecommunications industry. The FCC gave special consideration to the
recommendations by the federal health agencies because of their special responsibility for protecting the
public health and safety. In fact, the maximum permissible exposure (MPE) values in the FCC standard are
those recommended by EPA and FDA. The FCC standard incorporates various elements of the 1992 ANSI
and NCRP standards which were chosen because they are widely accepted and technically supportable.
There are a variety of other exposure guidelines and standards set by other national and international
organizations and governments, most of which are similar to the current ANSI/IEEE or NCRP standard,
figure one.
3
The FCC standards "Guidelines for Evaluating the Environmental Effects of Radiofrequency Radiation"
(Report and Order FCC 96-326) adopted the ANSI/IEEE definitions for controlled and uncontrolled
environments. In order to use the higher exposure levels associated with a controlled environment, RF
exposures must be occupationally related (e.g., PCS company RF technicians) and they must be aware of
and have sufficient knowledge to control their exposure. All other environmental areas are considered
uncontrolled (e.g., public) for which the stricter (i.e., lower) environmental exposure limits apply. All
carriers were required to be in compliance with the new FCC RF e'xposure standards for new
telecommunications facilities by October 15, 1997. These standards applied retroactively for existing
telecommunications facilities on September 1, 2000.
Summary and Conclusion
The T -Mobile wireless facility, as described above is in full compliance with the FCC standards for public
RF exposure safety. PCS radio transmitters, by design and operation, are low-power devices. The maximum
cumulative RF power density measured at and around this facility, together with a five fold increase to
assure that maximum potential exposures would not be exceed during maximum transmission conditions,
was 8.0% of, (i.e., approximately 12 times lower than), the FCC public exposure standard for these RF
frequencies. It is important to realize that the FCC maximum allowable public exposures arenot set at a
threshold between safety and known hazard but rather at 50 times below a level that the majority of the
scientific community believes may pose a health risk to human populations. Thus the previously mentioned
maximum cumulative exposure from the site represents a "safety margin" from this threshold of potentially
adverse health effects of approximately 625 times.
Given the low levels of radio frequency field exposure and given the evidence on biological effects in a large
data base, there is no scientific basis to conclude that harmful effects will attend the utilization of this
telecommunication facility. This conclusion is supported by a large numbers of .scientists that have
participated in standard setting activities in the United States who are overwhelmingly agreed that RF
radiation exposure below the FCC exposure limits has no demonstrably harmful effects on humans.
These findings are based on my professional evaluation of the scientific issues related to the health and
safety of non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation, measurements of existing RF exposures, and my analysis
of the technical specification as provided by T-Mobile. The opinions expressed herein are based on my
professional judgement and are not intended to necessarily represent the views of any other organization or
institution. Please contact me if you require any additional information.

Dr. Jerrold Bushberg has performed health and safety analysis for RF & ELF transmissions systems since
1978 and i~ an expert in both health physics and medical physics. The scientific discipline of Health
Physics is devoted to radiation protection, which, among other things, involves providing analysis of
radiation exposure conditions, biological effects research, regulations and standards as well as
recommendations regarding the use and safety of ionizing and non-ionizing radiation. In addition, Dr.
Bushberg has extensive experience and lectures on several related topics including medical physics,
radiation protection, (ionizing and non-ionizing), radiation biology, the science· of risk assessment and
effective risk communication in the public sector.
Dr. Bushberg's doctoral dissertation at Purdue University was on various aspects of the biological effects
of microwave radiation. He has maintained a strong professional involvement in this subject and has
served as consultant or appeared as an expert witness on this subject to a wide variety of
organizations/institutions including, local governments, school districts, city planning departments,
telecommunications companies, the California Public Utilities Commission, national news organizations,
and the U.S. Congress. In addition, his consultation services have included detailed computer based
modeling of RF exposures as well as on-site safety inspections and RF & ELF environmental field
measurements of numerous transmission facilities in order to determine their compliance with FCC and
other safety regulations. The consultation services provided by Dr. Bushberg are based on his professional
judgement as an independent scientist, however they are not intended to necessarily represent the views
of any other organization.
Dr. Bushberg is a member of the main scientifiC body of International Committee on Electromagnetic
Safety (ICES) which reviews and evaluates the scientific literature on the biological effects of non-
ionizing electromagnetic radiation and establishes exposure standards. He also serves on the ICES Risk
Assessment Working Group that is responsible for evaluating and characterizing the risks of non-
ionizing electromagnetic radiation. Dr. Bush berg was appointed and is serving as a member of the main
scientific council of the National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurement's (NCRP). He is
also a Scientific Vice-President of the NCRP, a member of the NCRP Board of Directors and chairs its
committee on Radiation Protection in Medicine. In addition, Dr. Bushberg is a member of NCRP' s
scientific advisory committee on Non-ionizing Radiation Safety. The N CRP is the nation's preeminent
scientific radiation protection organization, chartered by Congress to evaluate and provide expert
consultation on a wide variety of radiological health issues. The current FCC RF exposure safety
standards are based in large part on the recommendations of the NCRP. Dr. Bushberg was elected to
the International Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society Committee on Man and Radiation
(CO MAR) which has as its primary area of responsibility the examination and interpreting the biological
effects of non-ionizing electromagnetic energy and presenting its findings in an authoritative and
professional manner. Dr. Bushberg is also a member of a six person U.S. expert delegation to the
international scientific community on Scientific and Technical Issues for Mobile Communication
Systems established by the Federal Communications Commission.
Dr. Bushberg is a full member of the Bioelectromagnetics Society, the Health Physics Society and the
Radiation Research Society. Dr. Bushberg received both a Masters of Science and Ph.D. from the
Department of Bionucleonics at Purdue University. Dr. Bushberg is certified by several national
professional boards with specific sub-specialty certification in radiation protection and medical physics.
Prior to coming to California, Dr. Bushberg was on the faculty of Yale University School of Medicine.
