DESCRIPTION/BACKGROUND:

Skyway Towers, LLC, on behalf of the property owner, Martin R. Helgerson Trust, has filed an application for a Special Use Permit (SUP) to request permission to install one 125-foot-tall monopole telecommunication tower and support facility in a Mixed Residential (R-4) zone. The Parcel Identification Number is 32651-000-01. The subject property has no assigned street address and is located off SE 178th Avenue and SE 20th Street, Silver Springs, FL 32179. The subject property is ±63.90 acres. The applicant is applying for a SUP because T-Mobile needs to collocate on a new monopole-style telecommunication tower in order to address a gap in wireless coverage in the Silver Springs area. Staff recommends approval because the requested use is compatible with the surrounding area, will not adversely affect the public interest, and is consistent with the Marion County Comprehensive Plan.
