Design Discussion - VLANs and Spanning Tree

The design art is here: https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/1vL59fyXOHkjTovhLNTZJpPUx-5i4a2tRRSQ3nFWU0tE/edit?usp=sharing

The issue I'm thumping my melon on is in regards to a STP loop happening at SITE-FM-SWITCH or at the SITE-HQ SWITCHES. It would seem to me it is the equivalent of 2 ethernet paths and I'm unsure of what remedy is best to proceed with. My desired goal would be that if one VLAN13 at distance backhaul link drops, the network automatically fails over the functional link. Should I (can I) implement these ports as a LAG w/ LACP even though they are pathing over different media/providers?

Thanks in advance for your time / thoughts / ideas.
