10a-1. Title.

This Ordinance shall be known as the Wireless Telecommunications Zoning Ordinance.

10a-2. Purpose.

The purposes of this ordinance are:

(1) To regulate personal wireless services antennas, with or without support structures, and related electronic equipment and equipment structures.

(2) To provide for the orderly establishment of personal wireless services facilities in the City.

(3) To minimize the number of antenna support structures by encouraging the co-location of multiple antennas on a single structure, by encouraging the location of antennas on pre-existing support structures, and by encouraging the use of City-owned property for antenna support structures.

(4) To establish siting, appearance and safety standards that will help mitigate potential impacts related to the construction, use and maintenance of personal wireless services facilities.

(5) To comply with the Telecommunications Act of 1996 by establishing

regulations that

(a) do not prohibit or have the effect of prohibiting the provision of personal

wireless services;

(b) do not unreasonably discriminate among providers of functionally equivalent services;

(c) are not based on the environmental effects of radio frequency emissions, other than the requirement that such facilities comply with the Federal Communication Commission’s regulations concerning such emissions.

10a-3. Findings.

The City Council makes the following findings:

(1) Personal wireless services devices are an integral part of the rapidly growing and evolving telecommunications industry, and present unique zoning challenges and concerns for the City.

(2) The City needs to balance the interests and desires of the telecommunications industry

and its customers to provide competitive and effective telecommunications systems in the City, against the sometimes differing interests and desires of others concerning health, safety, welfare, and aesthetics, and orderly planning of the community.

(3) The City has experienced an increased demand for personal wireless services facilities

to be located in the City, and expects the increased demand to continue into the future.

(4) It is in the best interests of the City to have quality personal wireless services available, which necessarily entails the erection of personal wireless services facilities in the City.

(5) The unnecessary proliferation of personal wireless services facilities throughout the City creates a negative visual impact on the community.

(6) The visual effects of personal wireless services facilities can be mitigated by fair standards regulating their siting, construction, maintenance and use.

(7) Spacing personal wireless services facilities evenly throughout the city reduces the negative impact created by the proliferation of telecommunication towers.

(8) Because of the height and appearance of personal wireless services facilities, surrounding properties bear a disproportionate share of the negative impacts of a telecommunications tower.

(9) A private property owner who leases space for a personal wireless services facility is the only one who receives compensation for the facility, even though numerous other property owners in the area are adversely affected by the location of the facility.

(10) Encouraging personal wireless services facilities to be located on City property, with lease payments paid to the City instead of an individual property owner, indirectly compensates all citizens of the community for the adverse impacts of the facilities, and is therefore the fairest method of distributing burden and benefit.

(11) Locating antennas on existing buildings and structures creates less of a negative visual impact on the community than the erection of towers.

(12) Buildings and structures on public property can accommodate antenna arrays, thus

reducing the proliferation of towers in all areas of the City.

(13) The public policy objectives to reduce the proliferation of telecommunication

towers and to mitigate their impact can best be facilitated by permitting the locating of wireless communication systems on existing structures located on City owned property.

(14) Stealth facilities, which are facilities designed to disguise the presence of telecommunications facilities, are preferable to towers and other obtrusive support structures which create an unmitigated aesthetic impact on surrounding property.

(15) Because of the obtrusive height and size of telecommunications support structures, such facilities have a more substantial negative visual impact in residential areas than in commercial or industrial areas, which frequently contain other high profile structures.

(16) The site location requirements set forth in this ordinance for the placement of personal wireless services are necessary to protect the heath, safety and general welfare of the community.

(17) Chapter 69-3, Utah Code Annotated, grants cities the authority to create or acquire sites to accommodate the erection of telecommunication towers in order to promote the location of telecommunication towers in a manageable area and to protect the aesthetics and environment of the area. The law also allows the City to require the owner of any tower to accommodate the multiple use of the tower by other companies where feasible and to pay the City the fair market rental value for the use of any City-owned site.

(6) Stealth Facilities.

(a) Maximum Height. The maximum height of a stealth facility shall be the maximum structure height of the zoning district in which the stealth facility is located. The applicant may exceed the maximum structure height if allowed pursuant to a conditional use permit.

10a-14 Conditional Use Permit Considerations.

In addition to the City’s standard conditional use permit considerations, the Planning Commission shall consider the following factors when deciding whether to grant a conditional use permit for a personal wireless services facility:

(1) Compatibility. Compatibility of the facility with the height, mass and design of buildings, structures and uses in the vicinity of the facility.

(2) Screening. Whether the facility uses existing or proposed vegetation, topography or structures in a manner that effectively screens the facility.

(3) Disguise. Whether the facility is disguised in a manner that mitigates potential negative impacts on surrounding properties.

(4) Parcel Size. Whether the facility is located on a parcel of sufficient size to adequately support the facility.

(5) Location on Parcel. Whether the structure is situated on the parcel in a manner that can best protect the interests of surrounding property owners, but still accommodate other appropriate uses of the parcel.

(6) Location in general. Whether location or co-location of the facility on other structures in the same vicinity is practicable, without significantly affecting the antenna transmission or reception capabilities.

(7) Co-location. The willingness of the applicant to allow co-location on its facility by other personal wireless services providers on such terms as are common in the industry.

10a-15 Additional Regulations for Monopoles and Towers.

(1) Distance from other Monopoles. Monopoles and towers shall be located at least one thousand feet (1000') from each other, except upon a showing of necessity by the applicant, or upon a finding by the City that a closer distance would adequately protect the health, safety and welfare of the community. This distance requirement shall not apply to stealth facilities or to antennas attached to lawful structures such as transmission towers, utility poles, outdoor lighting structures, and water tanks.

(2) Location on Parcel. Monopoles shall be located as unobtrusively on a parcel as possible, given the location of existing structures, nearby residential areas, and service needs of the applicant. Monopoles shall not be located in a required landscaped area, buffer area or parking area.

10a-16 Safety Requirements.

(1) Regulation Compliance.

(a) Compliance with FCC and FAA regulations. All operators of personal wireless services facilities shall demonstrate compliance with applicable Federal Communication Commission (FCC) and Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations, including FCC radio frequency regulations, at the time of application and periodically thereafter as requested by the City. Failure to comply with the applicable regulations shall be grounds for revoking a site plan or conditional use permit approval.

(b) Other licenses and permits. The operator of every personal wireless services facility shall submit copies of all licenses and permits required by other agencies and governments with jurisdiction over the design, construction, location and operation of the facility to the City, shall maintain such licenses and permits in good standing, and shall provide evidence of renewal or extension thereof upon request by the City.

(2) Protection Against Climbing. Monopoles shall be protected against unauthorized climbing by removing the climbing pegs from the lower 20 feet of the monopole.

(3) Fencing. Monopoles and towers shall be fully enclosed by a minimum 6-foot tall fence or wall, as directed by the City, unless the City determines that a wall or fence is not needed or appropriate for a particular site due to conditions specific to the site.

(4) Security Lighting Requirements. Monopoles and towers shall comply with the FAA requirements for lighting. As part of the conditional use permit consideration, the City may also require security lighting for the site. If security lighting is used, the lighting impact on surrounding residential areas shall be minimized by using indirect lighting, where appropriate.

10a-17 Abandonment.

The City may require the removal of all antennas and monopoles if the facility has been inoperative or out of service for more than twelve (12) consecutive months.

(1) Notice. Notice to remove shall be given in writing by personal service, or by certified mail addressed to the operator’s last known address.

(2) Violation. Failure to remove the antennas and monopoles after receiving written notice to remove is a violation of the terms of this Chapter. The City may initiate criminal and/or civil legal proceeding against any person, firm, entity or corporation, whether acting as principal, agent, property owner, lessee, lessor, tenant, landlord, employee, employer or otherwise, for failure to remove antennas and monopoles in accordance with this Chapter. The City may seek a civil injunction requiring the removal of any structures on the site in accordance with this Chapter. Any lease agreement with the City may also stipulate failure to remove the antennas and monopoles after receiving written notice to do so pursuant to this Chapter automatically transfers ownership of the antennas, monopoles, support buildings and all other structures on the site to the City.
