PERMITS/REVIEW REQUESTED: Administrative Temporary Use Permit
PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The applicant (Tilson Tech on behalf of Verizon Wireless) is requesting a
Tier 2 Temporary Use Permit, pursuant to Renton Municipal Code Section 4-9-240, to allow a temporary wireless
facility (aka cell-on-wheels) near 111 Meadow Ave N (APN 1352300071). According to the applicant, the purpose of
the COW is to enhance cellular coverage in the downtown Renton area until a permanent facility is constructed in an
alternative downtown location. The property is located in the Commercial Arterial (CA) zoning designation. The COW
would shift from its current location on the parcel to the north, to the subject parcel adjacent to the Bronson Way N
right-of-way (ROW). The COW equipment will remain caged for security. The base of the temporary structure is
approximately 6' x 14' in size. The total leased area is approximately 30' x 40', or 1,200 sq. ft. The COW mast holds
three panel antennas and a microwave antenna, with a total max height of 35 feet. Three ecolog y blocks are attached
to the COW with guy lines to increase stability. The existing vegetative screening with automated watering system
would be maintained. The applicant is proposing to maintain a temporary generator on site for use during emergency
situations or events. The site is located within the Wellhead Protection Area Zone 1 and High Seismic Hazard Area. No
other critical areas are located on site and no ground disturbance activity is proposed.
