Mr. McCarty,
Thank you for your assistance. Since it looks like some permitting will be required, I need to know if there are
open permits at the sites. Are you able to provide me with that information? If so, the Site address are as
follows :
200 Cooner St. (colocation)
903a Krenek Tap Road (colocation)
2106 Southwood Dr. (colocation)
922 Olsen Blvd., Bldg #155 (from a review of your city map, 1 show this location to be on the campus so it may
not be applicable)
If not, do you know how I could find out that information.
Although, I don't believe zoning will be an issue due to colocation on existing towers, I would like to check in
with your zoning department. From your website 1 see quite a few people listed in that department, could you
let me know which person is the City of College Station zoning person that I should speak with?
Again, thank you for any assistance you can provide.

Cynthia Hanson,
The installation of new equipment will require an electrical permit by an state licensed electrician. A Building
Permit is required for the installation of equipment pads and raised platform structures.
Submit three copies of sealed design plans.
Submit one completed building permit application.
A site plan is not required for electrical equipment located within the existing fenced area of existing
telecommunication tower sites.
City of College Station is currently under the 2009 International Codes & 2008 NEC, however after the new year
we will be under the 2012 International Codes & 2011 NEC.
Texas A &M University's campus is state owned property, therefore is not under our jurisdiction, and may
require separate permits, contact their facilities maintenance department of Texas A &M University.
Thank you,

Dear Mr. McCarty,
I am helping Sprint with an upgrade of their equipment on existing telecommunication tower sites in College
Station. There are four sites they will be upgrading, one of which is on the A &M campus. These upgrades
consist of swapping out old equipment for new equipment. Will the City require a building and /or electrical
permit for this upgrade? I have not been able to find the applicable section in your code relating to
telecommunication towers. Could you point me to that section as well?
Additionally, would you require site plans for such an upgrade?
Thank you for any assistance you can provide.
