General provisions
309 rules that bind every district rather than one — sign regulations, parking, floodplain and the rest of the code’s citywide chapters.
No wireless communications facility shall generate RF emissions in excess of FCC standards. Freestanding facilities shall be located for screening, designed for co-location, no guy wires, no exterior lighting. In ROW, height not exceed 10 ft above adjacent district, 300 ft separation in residential areas, antenna max 6 ft above light pole.
All wireless communications facilities shall comply at all times with the following operation and maintenance standards.
Satellite dish antennae with diameters of twenty-four inches or less shall not be installed within a required front yard or within five feet of any side or rear property line.
Within thirty days of discontinuation of use, the wireless communications facility operator shall notify the zoning administrator in writing that use of the wireless communications facility has been discontinued.
Any permit granted in accordance with the terms of this chapter for a wireless communications facility may be revoked if any of the conditions or terms of such permit or variance are violated or if any law or ordinance is violated in connection therewith.
Upon termination or revocation of the permit or abandonment of the wireless communications facility, the permittee, owner, or operator shall remove its wireless communications facility and restore the site to its natural condition.
From time to time, the city may need the services of a qualified outside consultant to serve as third-party reviewer or supplement staff to review and make appropriate recommendations including, but not limited to, compliance with radio frequency emissions standards and/or identification of alternative solutions.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter to the contrary, if any provision(s) of this chapter would give rise to a claim by an applicant that a proposed action by the city would prohibit or have the effect of prohibiting the provision of personal wireless services within the meaning of 47 USC 332(c)(7), or otherwise are preempted or prohibited by state or federal law, evidence of such effect may be grounds for a variance from the requirements of this chapter or an appeal of any decision denying an application for a wireless communications facility.
