Dish Wireless Rooftop Installation-August 2022Design Review Board Recommendation Small Project Review - SRA-22-13 Address of Project: 27 CHARTER STREET Meeting Date:August 24, 2022 Members Present:Paul Durand, David Jaquith, Glenn Kennedy, Catherine Miller, Marc Perras, Sarah Tarbet Members Absent:J. Michael Sullivan Decision:To recommend approval of the project as proposed and conditioned herein. Referenced Plans and Documents: - Plan set titled, 'Dish Wireless LLC, Site ID BOBOS00950A, 27 Charter Street, Salem, MA 01970' prepared by Centerline Engineering Services, PA. 750 Center Street, Suite 301, West Bridgewater, MA 02379, dated 4/14/22. A series of photo simulations prepared by Centerline Engineering Services, PA. 750 Center Street, Suite 301, West Bridgewater, MA 02379, submitted on 7/18/22. Conditions of Approval: - Consistency with Approved Design/Plans: Should the applicant determine that the project may not be completed as presented and conditioned herein, he/she/they shall return to the DRB to review proposed modifications prior to making any changes in the field. - The roof-mounted infrastructure should be painted a dark gray or black. The satellites that overhang the rooftop should be treated in the same way as the others that are on the rooftop, i.e. wrapped or painted to blend with the brick and the concrete portions of the façade. Findings: - This project is as consistent with the design guidelines and standards as it can be through the minimization of equipment that is installed on the façade of the building and locating additional rooftop infrastructure toward the center of the roof, hidden from view from the public way. The Board found that the proposed project is consistent with recent cellular infrastructure installations on the building with the placement of the antenna and the wrapping of them to blend with the building façade. There is minimal visual impact to the building due to the wrapping of the antenna and their installation location at the top of one of the tallest buildings in downtown Salem. Signature of the DRB: By the signature below, I certify that this recommendation accurately reflects the actions of the Design Review Board.
