18594 | Commissioner Kahuanui stated that originally the plans were sent back multiple times due to specifications because a Commissioner was concerned about the aesthetics. At that time the Commission went so far as to require that the contractor match the paint. Commissioner Cooper asked for clarification on the placement of the equipment building. PM Manager stated that the tower is off of the field on the third base side where there is a light standard. The pole will go in right where the light standard is currently located. PM McDonald stated that these plans will still need to go to the Planning Commission. Vice Chair Restagno asked if the pole extending up to 90 feet would affect the aesthetics at all. PM McDonald stated no. You do not notice where other poles have been installed so we do not anticipate that it would affect the aesthetics. Commissioner Kahuanui stated that the Commission should also keep in mind that there are already poles in the area to hold up the big nets that are higher then 90 feet. The new light will help out in left field. PM McDonald stated that if this project goes through there will be a funding source for Washington Park which is dedicated to that park. This will also help us work out a financial plan to replace the lights. M/S/C SONNEMAN/KAHUANUI (approved) "Approve the concept of installing a cell tower in Washington Park."
