REASON FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND
1. The Schumann Tower Project consists of a request to build a telecommunications facility on
a parcel located approximately 1 mile west of Alhambra Avenue in the Franklin Hills area. The
Zoning Administrator's approval of a land use permit has been appealed by the City of
Martinez, Friends of the Franklin Hills and the East Bay Regional Park District. The Planninp
• Commission Board of Appeals heard the issue, and upheld the Zoning Administrator's decision.
The Board of Supervisors will now hear the appeal, therefore the Liaison Committee felt it
appropriate that the Board be afforded the opportunity to view this site, prior to Board action
on the appeal.
2. The Community Development Department, in accordance with previous Land Use Permit
conditions for the North Peak tower and structures, is monitoring progress of removal of an old
shed and it's contents. Should removal be delayed, the Liaison Committee recommends legal
action as necessary, as well as monitoring efforts.
