STAFF REVIEW COMMENTS NO. 1
Project: AT&T Mobility Hx 3573 Brentwood (Sp-Wtt) 13-00900204
1. Please be aware that the monopole design as shown on Tower Elevation A2.0; is not
meeting the City's definition of a stealth tower, which is defined as "a manmade tree, clock
tower, church steeple, bell tower, utility pole, light standard, identification pylon, flagpole, or
similar structure, that is camouflaged to be unrecognizable as a telecommunications facility,
designed to support or conceal the presence of telecommunication antennas and blends
into the surrounding environment."
2. Provide a general note on the site plan that all roof and ground -mounted mechanical
equipment shall be screened from view or isolated so as not to be visible from any public
right-of-way or residential district within 150' of the subject lot, measured from a point five
feet above grade. Such screening shall be coordinated with the building architecture and
scale to maintain a unified appearance.
3. Provide a general note on the site plan that states the following: Exterior building and site
lighting will meet the standards of Section 7.11 of the Unified Development Ordinance. The
light source shall not project below an opaque housing and no fixture shall directly project
light horizontally. Fixtures will be mounted in such a manner that the projected cone of light
does not cross any property line.
4. Please note that any changes made to the plans, that have not been requested by the City
of College Station, must be explained in your next transmittal letter and "bubbled" on your
plans. Any additional changes on these plans that the City has not be made of aware of will
constitute a completely new review.

ELECTRICAL COMMENTS REQUIRING IMMEDIATE ATTENTION
1. SITE PLAN/PLAT: Developer will provide CSU with a digital, AutoCAD dwg format, version
of plat and / or site plan as soon as it is available. Email to: sweido(a)cstx.gov
2. LOAD DATA: The developer will provide load data to CSU as soon as it is available. This
information is critical for CSU to accurately determine the size and number of transformers,
and other equipment, required to provide service to the project. Failure to provide load data
will result in construction delays and, due to clearance requirements, could affect the final
building footprint. Delivery time for transformers and other equipment not in stock is
approximate 26 weeks.
3. EASEMENTS: All easements on site are existing. Electric facilities will be designed within
existing easements.
4. If easements are existing, the developer will be responsible for locating easements on site to
insure that electrical infrastructure is installed within easement boundaries.
GENERAL ELECTRICAL COMMENTS
1. Developer installs conduit per CSU specs and design.
2. CSU will provide drawings for electrical installation.
3. Meter pedestal will be within 10' of existing transformer and within easement boundaries.
4. CSU will furnish wire to meter pedestal. Owner is responsible for service to cell site.
5. Final site plan must show all proposed electrical facilities necessary to provide electrical
service, i.e. transformers, pull boxes, or switchgears, all meter locations, and conduit routing
as designed by CSU.
6. To discuss any of the above electrical comments please contact Sam Weido at
979.764.6314.
