Compton City Zoning Code

§ 30-46.14

Modifications to PWSFs.

[Ord. #2121, § 1]
The City of Compton shall require the review and approval of all modifications to PWSFs.
a. 
Types of Modification. A modification of a PWSF is any of the following:
1. 
Change of name of the personal wireless service or of the subject property. Ownership or branding changes are both included, whether a "merger," acquisition, sale of stock, turning over or assigning a PWSF to a tower company, or any other form of name change.
2. 
Change in technology used for the PWSF, such as an "overlay."
(a) 
A change in technology may be obvious, such as the addition of more antennas, or
(b) 
A change in technology may be invisible, such as the exchange of software cards in an equipment cabinet.
(c) 
Network sharing, thereby enabling another carrier or unlicensed provider the use of some or all of the equipment at the PWSF.
3. 
Addition or replacement of any equipment in the PWSF, excluding direct, identical substitutions, and including the addition of a cabinet in a space marked "future" or "growth" on previously approved drawings.
4. 
Change in design of the PWSF.
5. 
Addition to any PWSF for the purposes of co-location, provided that the previously approved co-location identified the future positions of the requested modification.
6. 
Addition to any PWSF for purposes of co-location. When the PWSF has not been approved as co-location with future positions, the applicant must apply for a new PWSF.
b. 
Applications for Modification. Applicants for modifications shall submit an application to the City for a modified PWSF. The application shall include all materials required in subsection 30-46.9 that would change due to the modification.
1. 
A modification may require a reapplication; or
2. 
A modification may require no more than a notice to the Registry required in subsection 30-46.16 of this section.
c. 
Extent of Review. The Planning Director shall determine the extent that City staff should review a modification. The Planning Director may decide that a new Conditional Use Permit is necessary (Planning Commission Review), a review by the Architectural Review Board is required or the Planning Director may issue an approved amendment unilaterally.
