Design Review Board Recommendation
15 Federal Street
Small Project Review: Installation of SiFi infrastructure on public land
Meeting Date: April 28, 2021
Members Present: Paul Durand, David Jaquith, Glenn Kennedy, Catherine Miller, Marc Perras, Helen Sides
Members Absent: J. Michael Sullivan
Decision: At a regular meeting of the Design Review Board (DRB), upon a motion duly made and seconded, it
was unanimously voted to recommend approval of the proposed installation of infrastructure associated with
city-wide SiFi initiative on public land adjacent to the Church Street parking lot as designed and conditioned
herein.
Referenced Plans and Documents
1. Plan Set titled ‘Fiber Support Cabinet, Sequence ID/Cabinet ID 498/15” and SiFi Cabinet Details,
prepared by Jacobs Telecommunications, Inc., 5449 Bells Ferry Road, Acworth, GA 30102, dated 1/5/21.
2. A series of photographs showing existing and proposed conditions submitted on 4/1/21.
3. Staff Comments dated 4/22/21.
Condition of Approval: The DRB recommends incorporating the following condition:
1. 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.
2. Preferred Location: The cabinet and associated underground vaults shall be moved westward
approximately 40’ along the pervious area next to the parking lot so that the cabinet is adjacent to the
row of parking. The applicant shall submit revised plans showing this preferred location prior to
obtaining final Salem Redevelopment Authority approval.
3. Bollards: The bollards shall be powder-coated black.
Findings
1. Community Benefit of Project: This proposal is one of many that will be before the City’s permitting
boards, commissions, and authorities, as the applicant works to fulfill the City’s desire to install the
infrastructure required to bring reliable high-speed internet to the entire community. There is an
overarching community benefit to allowing the placement of this cabinet in the Urban Renewal Area as
it will facilitate the city-wide fiber network.
2. Preservation of View Corridor: The placement of the cabinet along the Federal Street side of the Church
Street parking lot preserves the view corridors along both Church Street and St. Peter Street to historic
St. Peter’s Episcopal Church.
3. Blending Infrastructure into the Environment: By shifting the cabinet so that it is in line with the row of
parked cars, this infrastructure will more successfully blend into its environment.
Signature of the DRB: By the signature below, I certify that this recommendation accurately reflects the actions
of the Design Review Board.
