C2.6 Communication Towers
Note: Industry Canada is responsible for regulating radio communication in Canada and for authorizing
the location and height of radio communication facilities, including radio, television, and microwave
transmission facilities. In making its decision regarding transmission, communication and related
facilities, Industry Canada considers the following:
- The input provided by the City,
- Compliance with Transport Canada's painting and lighting requirements for aeronautical safety,
- Health Canada's safety guidelines respecting limits of exposure to radio frequency fields, and
- An environmental assessment may be required to comply with the federal Environmental
Assessment Act.
(1)
Unless a proposal meets Industry Canada's criteria for exclusion, the erection of a communication
tower requires a development permit.
(2)
Industry Canada criteria for exclusion from the requirement to consult with the City and the public
should be applied in consideration of local circumstances, as individual circumstances vary with
each antenna system installation and modification. It may be prudent for proponents to consult the
city and the public, even though the proposal meets the criteria for exclusion, as defined by
Industry Canada. When applying for either a development permit, or the criteria for exclusion, the
Development Officer and proponents should consider such things as:
(a) The antenna system's physical dimensions, including the antenna, mast, and tower, compared
to local surroundings,
(b) The location of the proposed antenna system on the property and its proximity to neighboring
residents,
(c) The likelihood of an area being a community-sensitive location, and
(d) Transport Canada marking and lighting requirements for the proposed structure.
(3)
Unless demonstrated to be impractical, transmission antennae shall be encouraged to be mounted
on existing structures (including buildings or towers).
(4)
Sites for commercial communication towers should be fenced with suitable protective anti-climb
fencing as required by the Development Authority.
(5)
Where new communication tower installations are proposed, the City will encourage the use of
monopole design to reduce the visual impact of the structure and will support any form of
camouflage techniques that will assist to blend the tower into the environment.
(6)
The Development Officer shall submit a letter of concurrence to Industry Canada upon completion
of a processed application detailing:
(a) Its opinion as to whether the location of the communication tower is appropriate from the City's
land use perspective,
(b) Whether or not, in the City's opinion, adequate public consultation has been conducted by the
applicant, and
(c) The degree to which the applicant has met the requirements of this section as they relate to
location, design, and visual impact.

The Development Authority may consider an application for a development permit that does not
provide all the information required by Section C3.3 if, in the opinion of the Development Authority,
the information provided is sufficient to show that the landscaping provisions of the Bylaw can be
met.
(10) As a condition of development permit approval, the Development Authority shall require that the
applicant sign a Landscaping Deposit Agreement, in which the applicant will provide a required
"Landscape Security" in the form of cash or Letter of Credit equivalent to one hundred percent
(100%) of the estimated soft landscape value, to ensure that the landscaping is provided and
installed in accordance with recognized horticultural practices and the approved landscape plan.
The security may be released subject to the following:
(a) Inspections shall only be made during the normal growing season, approximately June
through September.
(b) The release of security will be dependent on plant material being alive, thriving, and having
been consistently maintained over the previous twelve (12) months.
(c) Securities may be held in full, if the landscaping is not provided and installed in accordance
with the approved landscape plan, or if there are noted deficiencies as determined by the
Development Authority.
(d) Securities may be released in full, if the landscaping is provided and installed in accordance
with the approved landscape plan, and there are no deficiencies as determined by the
Development Authority.
(e) Securities may be reduced to ten percent (10%) of the accepted securities if there are noted
deficiencies, at the discretion of the Development Authority. The Developer/Owner will have
one year from the date of the initial inspection to complete the required landscaping and
ensure the landscaping is in healthy condition. Upon approval of the finished landscaping, the
City shall release the remaining securities.
(f) In the event the Developer/Owner does not complete the required landscaping or fails to
maintain the landscaping in a healthy condition, the City will draw on the securities provided by
the Developer/Owner to complete the required work. If the securities are insufficient to
complete the required work, the Developer/Owner shall pay such deficiency to the City
immediately upon being invoiced.
(11)
The projected cost of the landscaping shall be calculated by the Developer/Owner and shall be
based on the information provided on the approved landscape plan. If in the reasonable opinion of
the Development Authority, these projected costs are inadequate, the Development Authority may
establish a higher landscaping cost for the purposes of determining the value of the landscaping
security.

parking spaces may be granted by the Development Authority:
(a) The developments shall be proximate to each other and within 100 m of the site on which the
parking spaces are located,
(b) The developments must provide parking stalls and loading spaces equal to the sum of the
requirements of individual uses, unless:
(i)
The applicant can otherwise demonstrate to the Development Authority through a
qualified Transportation Engineer that there is a complementary or overlapping use of the
parking facilities which would warrant a reduction in the parking requirements, for
example, the developments demonstrate that they may have a potential shared customer,
where customers visit two or more businesses using a single parking stall, or
(ii) The demand for parking spaces for each development is not likely to occur at the same
time,
Bylaw No. 766-LU-23, Land Use Bylaw
Page 63
(c) An agreement satisfactory to the Development Authority is signed between the owners of the
sites that are sharing the Parking Spaces and the agreement is registered on the Titles of the

(a) Parking spaces may be provided for that building in accordance with the proportion of the
building occupied by each use,
(b) The total quantity of spaces shall be at least equal to the required spaces for all
establishments in the development to be in operation at any given time, unless
(i)
The applicant can otherwise demonstrate to the Development Authority through a
qualified Transportation Engineer that there is a complementary or overlapping use of the
parking facilities which would warrant a reduction in the parking requirements, for
example, the uses demonstrate that they may have a potential shared customer, where
customers visit two or more businesses using a single parking stall, or,
(ii) The demand for parking spaces for each use is not likely to occur at the same time,
(3)
