Initial Study Application No. 8882 and Unclassified Conditional Use Permit No. 3848

Fresno County is preparing to review an application for the construction and operation of a new wireless telecommunications facility featuring a 90-foot-tall monopole tower on a 900-square-foot leased portion of a 38.03-acre parcel located in the AL-20 Limited Agricultural zoning district, which requires a minimum parcel size of 20 acres. The project requires an Initial Study and an Unclassified Conditional Use Permit, indicating environmental and land use reviews will be conducted to assess compliance with local regulations and potential impacts on the agricultural zoning area. The applicant, Armando Montes, is seeking approval to install the infrastructure to enhance wireless network coverage, and the County’s Planner, Katie Bolton, is the primary point of contact for the review process. The application was posted in June 2026, and all correspondence and documentation will be managed through the county’s planning department with the designated point of contact information provided.
