Goshen Town City Zoning Code
ARTICLE XIII
Wireless Communications Facilities Regulations
§ 97-89 Legislative purpose.
The purpose of this article shall be to:
A.
Establish clear standards for the siting of wireless communications facilities, buildings and structures, equipment, communications towers, antenna towers and monopoles.
B.
Promote the health, safety and general welfare of the residents of Goshen through the establishment of minimum standards to reduce the adverse visual and other effects of communications facilities, including but not limited to transmission towers and antennas, through the use of advanced technology, careful design, siting, and screening and buffering.
C.
Protect residential areas and land uses and property values from potential adverse impacts of towers and antennas.
D.
Encourage the location of communications facilities and communications towers in areas suitably screened, buffered and adequately separated from residential uses.
E.
Minimize the total number of communications facilities and communications towers throughout the community.
F.
Encourage the joint use of new and existing communications tower sites as a primary option rather than construction of additional single-use communications towers while recognizing that collocation on higher towers is not always preferable to two less visible, less obtrusive shorter towers; thereby maximizing the use of existing communications towers or alternative antenna host sites, while not unreasonably limiting competition among communications providers or unreasonably limiting reception of receive-only antennas.
G.
Require users of communications towers and antennas to locate them, to the extent possible, in areas where the adverse impact on the community is shown to be minimal.
H.
Require users of communications towers and antennas to configure them in a way that minimizes adverse visual, aesthetic and community character intrusion impacts caused by the installation and view of communications towers and antennas, through careful design, siting, landscape screening and buffering, sufficient setbacks to reduce visual impacts to adjacent properties and innovative camouflaging techniques such as alternative tower structures, thereby protecting the physical appearance of the community and preserving its scenic and natural beauty.
I.
Avoid potential damage to adjacent properties from communications towers through careful engineering and appropriate siting of communications towers.
J.
Enhance the ability of the providers of telecommunications services to provide such services to the community quickly, effectively and efficiently by facilitating the siting of personal wireless communications facilities.
§ 97-90 Definitions.
