“Nutcracker” is a crowd-pleaser, complete with fab-

gorgeous scenery.
Tchaikovsky’s ballet has quite a history at the San Fran-

and adults were entranced in a world of splendor and expert
dance.

the younger spectators.
The second act features the famous Span-
ish, Arabian, Chinese, French and Russian
dances, with subtle scenery signaling each
theme, ending with the Madame Du Cirque
(Louis Schilling) and her wide skirt hiding
her 10 dancing buffoons. The dancing by
Sofiane Sylve’s Sugar Plum Fairy is one of
the highlights of the ballet, and the waltzing
flowers plus the grand pas de deux (Sasha
De Sola and Robison) complete the ballet
when Clara wakes from her dream.
“Nutcracker” is a must-see for this holiday
season, no matter how old you are.

CITY OF BELVEDERE
NOTICE OF ADOPTION OF URGENCY
ORDINANCE NO. 2018-9:
“AN URGENCY ORDINANCE OF THE
CITY OF BELVEDERE
ADDING CHAPTER 19.94,
‘WIRELESS TELECOMMUNICATION
FACILITIES,’ TO TITLE 19 (ZONING)
OF THE BELVEDERE MUNICIPAL
CODE”
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY
OF BELVEDERE DOES ORDAIN AS
FOLLOWS:
SECTION 1. Findings.
A. The telecommunication industry is
actively seeking to implement the fifth
generation of wireless network technol-
ogy, known as 5G, that requires the
installation of new antennas that are
smaller than traditional stand-alone tow-
ers and must be placed in closer proxim-
ity to each other; and
B. Federal and State law preempt
local control of wireless telecommunica-
tion facilities in several respects; and
C. The purpose of this Ordinance is
to establish uniform and comprehen-
sive standards and regulations regarding
the siting, development, and operation
of wireless telecommunication facilities
within the City in a manner consistent
with State and Federal law; and
D. California Public Utilities Code sec-
tion 7901.1 gives the City the right to
reasonably control the time, place, and
manner of the location of wireless tele-
communication facilities; and
E. The Federal Telecommunications
Act prohibits local jurisdictions from
effectively prohibiting the provision of
wireless service (47 U.S.C. §§ 332 and
253); and
F. Local jurisdictions may not regu-
late wireless telecommunication facilities
based on health concerns and/or radio
frequency emissions; and
G. Section 6409 of the Federal Middle
Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act
mandates local approval of eligible modi-
fications and collocations to existing wire-
less telecommunication facilities; and
H. Local jurisdictions must reason-
ably allow wireless telecommunication
facilities to be located in public rights-
of-way, but may impose regulations
based on published aesthetic standards
(Cal. Pub. Utilities Code, § 7901);
andI. In September 2018 the Federal
Communications Commission issued an
Order and Declaratory Statement effec-
tive January 2019 in furtherance of its
ongoing efforts to speed the develop-
ment and provision of wireless telecom-
munication services, including small cell
antennas; and
J. In its September 2018 Order and
Declaratory Statement, the FCC included
short “shot clocks” or deadlines, within
which local jurisdictions must decide on
a wireless facility application or else the
application will be deemed approved;
and
K. In its September 2018 Order and
Declaratory Statement, the FCC fur-
ther provided that local jurisdictions may
impose aesthetic standards on wireless
facilities if such standards are reason-
able, published in advance, and do not
effectively prohibit or materially inhibit
wireless service; and
L. Small cell antennas are primar-
ily installed in public rights-of-way and
therefore directly affect the public health,
safety, and welfare by impacting traffic,
pedestrian safety, and aesthetics; and
M. The unregulated installation of
wireless facilities, including small cell
antennas, in public rights-of-way and
in other locations, pose an immediate
threat to the public health, safety, and
welfare including: traffic and pedestrian
safety hazards due to unsafe siting; neg-
ative and irreversible impacts to trees,
landscaping, and infrastructure; visual
and aesthetic blight due to excessive
height and lack of camouflaging, nega-
tively impacting the unique character of
the City; and significant and immediate
negative aesthetic impacts, including
facilities that are excessively tall and not
camouflaged; and
N. The City has a legitimate govern-
mental interest in regulating wireless
telecommunication facilities because,
if left unregulated, the installation of
wireless facilities, including small cell
antennas, pose an immediate threat to
the public health, safety, and welfare
by adversely impacting the safety, func-
tionality, and aesthetics of rights-of-way
and other areas in the City to the extent
the wireless facilities are excessively
bulky, tall, or otherwise inappropriate;
the installation of facilities that lack
appropriate camouflage and are not
undergrounded to the extent feasible;
and traffic and pedestrian safety hazards
related to the installation and construc-
tion of wireless facilities in rights-of-way
and throughout the City; and
O. The City currently regulates wire-
less telecommunication facilities pur-
suant to the Zoning Code, but does
not have any rules directly applying to
telecommunication facilities; and
P. In light of recent developments
in Federal and State law with respect
to the regulation of small cell antennas
and other wireless telecommunication
facilities, there is an immediate need for
the City to update its Municipal Code and
Administrative Policy Manual to reflect
current telecommunication trends and
necessary legal requirements, and pub-
lish aesthetic, location, and other stan-
dards for wireless facilities, as set forth
in the attached draft Urgency Ordinance
and accompanying Administrative Policy
Amendments; and
Q. Based on the foregoing, the City
Council finds that the Ordinance is nec-
essary to immediately protect the public
health, safety, and welfare by estab-
lishing aesthetic and other appropriate
standards that apply to all wireless tele-
communication facilities, and allow the
City to evaluate applications within the
“shot clock” deadlines; and
R. Pursuant to Article XI, section 7
of the California Constitution and sec-
tions 36931 et seq. of the California
Government Code, the City Council may
make and enforce within its limits all
local, police, sanitary, and other ordi-
nances and regulations not in conflict
with general laws; and
S. The Ordinance does not conflict
and is consistent with the limitations
imposed by Federal and State law, and
does not effectively prohibit or materially
inhibit the provision of wireless telecom-
munication services; and
T. On December 10, 2018, the City
Council held a duly noticed public hear-
ing on the proposed Ordinance and
considered all information in the record
including public testimony at the hearing;
and
U. The City Council finds that the
Ordinance is categorically exempt from
the California Environmental Quality
Act (“CEQA”) under CEQA Guideline
15061(b)(3) (common sense exemp-
tion), because it can be seen with cer-
tainty that there is no possibility that
the proposed Ordinance could have a
significant environmental effect.
SECTION 2. Declaration of Facts
Constituting Urgency.
A. Recitals. The facts set forth in
the recitals in this Ordinance are true
and correct and incorporated herein by
reference. The recitals constitute find-
ings in this matter and, together with
the staff report, other written reports,
public testimony and other information
contained in the record, are an adequate
and appropriate evidentiary basis for the
actions taken in this Ordinance.
B. Urgency Findings. The City Council
finds and determines that the adoption
of this Urgency Ordinance is necessary
for the immediate preservation of the
public peace, health, and safety pursu-
ant to Government Code section 36937
because:
1. The wireless telecommunications
industry has expressed interest in sub-
mitting applications for the installation of
small cell wireless telecommunications
facilities throughout California and in
the Tiburon Peninsula area, including in
public rights-of-ways, and is currently
submitting wireless facility applications
around California in order to implement
new wireless “5-G” technology.
2. If not adequately regulated, instal-
lation of wireless telecommunication
facilities pose a threat to the public
health, safety, and welfare, including
disturbances to public rights-of-way
through the unregulated installation and
maintenance of wireless facilities; traffic
and pedestrian safety hazards due to
the unsafe location of wireless facilities;
impacts to trees, landscaping, and/or
infrastructure where proximity conflicts
may require unnecessary tree/landscap-
ing removal or trimming, or other dam-
age to infrastructure; land use conflicts
and incompatibilities including excessive
height of poles or towers; and creation of
visual and aesthetic blight and potential
safety concerns arising from excessive
size, height, noise, or lack of camouflag-
ing.
C. Consistency. The Ordinance is con-
sistent with Federal and State law, and
the City’s General Plan.
D. Authority and Effective Date. This
Urgency Ordinance is enacted pursuant
to the authority conferred upon the City
Council by Government Code sections
36934 and 36937 and shall be in full
force and effect immediately upon its
adoption by a four-fifths (4/5) vote of the
City Council.

Wireless Telecommunication Facilities, is
hereby added to the Belvedere Municipal
Code to read as follows:
