RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
CHULA VISTA AMENDING THE MASTER FEE SCHEDULE
TO SPECIFY A $25 AND $50 VARIANCE FEE FOR
SATELLITE DISHES
The City Council of the City of Chula Vista does hereby
resolve as follows:
WHEREAS, on July 15, 1985 and January 7, 1986, the City
Council passed regulations governing the placement of satellite
dish antennas as well as amortization provisions for
non-conforming dishes, and
WHEREAS, on January 15, 1986, the Federal Communications
Commission issued a report and order regarding preemption of
local zoning of receive-only satellite to earth stations, and
WHEREAS, the FCC order states that local regulations are
preempted unless such regulations "do not operate to impose
unreasonable limitations on, or prevent, reception of satellite
delivered signals by receive-only antenna or to impose costs on
the users of such antenna that are excessive in light of the
purchase and installation cost of the equipment", and
WHEREAS, Chula Vista's ordinance allows for a variance
filing where it can be demonstrated that it is not feasible to
locate a dish in accordance with the ordinance guidelines and
still receive a signal, and
WHEREAS, the current variance fees are $175 where no
public hearing is involved and $300 if there is a public hearing,
and
WHEREAS, in the case of satellite dishes, no
notification of and testimony from neighboring residents as to
visual impact and health or safety considerations is important
and thus makes a public hearing more likely to occur, and
WHEREAS, the $300 can be considered an unreasonable cost
toward compliance with these regulations.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of
the City of Chula Vista does hereby amend Section 19.14.030 and
Section 19.14.160 of the Master Fee Schedule to specify a $25 fee
for a variance for satellite dihes not involving a public hearing
and a $50 variance fee for satellite dishes involving a public
hearing.
