1. Findings: The Cedar City Council finds that: (1) it is in the best interests of the residents, businesses, industry, government operations, visitors, and the general economic development of Cedar City to have quality cellular wireless telephone and internet access; (2) private industry is best suited to provide the necessary infrastructure and service reasonably necessary so that Cedar City may enjoy quality cellular wireless telephone and internet access; (3) in permitting commercial electronic communication facilities it is important to balance the need for additional facilities and the aesthetic impacts on Cedar City; (4) the Federal Communications Commission regulates industry relative to possible environmental effects of radio frequency emissions, and; (5) the interests of Cedar City can be accomplished by developing as few facilities as is reasonably possible, encouraging co-location by carriers, and by encouraging all facilities that are built to be as un-obtrusive as possible.
2. Purpose: Consistent with the City’s findings, it is the purpose of this ordinance to: (1) establish minimum standards for the construction of commercial electronic communication facilities; (2) establish minimum separation requirements; (3) establish zones within the City where such facilities are permitted and under what circumstances; (4) establish maximum height limitations where necessary; and (5) establish such other setback, aesthetic, height, and zoning regulations as are reasonably necessary to balance the need for commercial electronic communication facilities and preserve the aesthetics of Cedar City.

2. PURPOSE: The purpose of this Ordinance is to encourage imaginative and efficient utilization of land through creative development thereby providing greater flexibility in the location of buildings on the land, the consolidation of open spaces and the clustering of dwelling units intended to create more attractive and desirable environments within residential areas of Cedar City, while promoting open space conservation and the protection of sensitive lands. The Cluster Overlay shall be allowed in all residential zones.
3. USE REGULATIONS: The Cluster Overlay is allowed in all residential zoning areas in compliance with the requirements set forth herein.
