Q.
Wireless Communication Facilities.
1.
In addition to the existing Conditional Use standards, the following factors shall be considered by the Planning Commission:
a.
Compatibility of the proposed Structure with the height and mass of existing adjacent Buildings and utility Structures;
b.
Whether Collocation of the Antenna on other existing structures in the same vicinity with such Uses as other towers, Buildings, utility poles and similar Structures is possible, and practical, as demonstrated by the Applicant, without significantly affecting the Antenna transmission or reception;
c.
The location of the Antenna in relation to existing vegetation, topography, and Buildings to optimize visual Screening;
d.
Whether the spacing between Monopoles creates detrimental impact on adjacent properties;
e.
The willingness of the Applicant to allow Collocation on its facility in the future for a reasonable compensation, as provided in sub (1)(b) of this Subsection.
2.
The Planning Commission may require that the Structure be designed and engineered to reasonably allow Collocation by a subsequent provider of low power radio communication services, if Collocation is feasible and consistent with sound engineering principles. Nothing herein shall be construed to deny the Owner of such a Structure from the right to receive reasonable compensation from that subsequent collocating provider for the Use of the structure.
3.
Accessory Buildings for Antenna Structures. Accessory Buildings to Antenna Structures must comply with the required Setback, height and Landscaping requirements of the zoning district in which they are located. Monopoles shall be fenced with a six-foot chain-link fence and the climbing pegs removed from the lower 20 feet of the Monopole.
4.
Abandoned Facilities. The Community Development Department is empowered to require an abandoned low power radio services Antenna be removed from the Building or premises when that Antenna has not been put into use by the Owner, the person having control, or the person receiving the benefit of the Structure within 30 calendar days after notice is given to the Owner, the person registered with the City as having control, or the person last known to the City to receive the primary benefit of the Structure. Notices required by this Section may be given by personal service, or by certified mail addressed to the person's last known address.
5.
Where Allowed. A low power radio service facility, which is not otherwise classified in this Section, is a Conditional Use as outlined herein. A Conditional Use permit for a Monopole may be granted in a residential district only if the Planning Commission finds that:
a.
The Monopole Antenna otherwise meets the requirements of Subsection (D) and does not exceed 60 feet in height;
b.
The Antenna tower will be placed on a Parcel occupied by a non-Residential Use, such as a school, church, or other non-Residential Use that is a legally conforming structure in that residential district;
c.
The Antenna tower will be located no closer than 150 feet from the nearest residential structure; and
d.
The Antenna and supporting Structure will be disguised as, or otherwise integrated with, a light pole, Billboard, utility Structure or similarly Compatible and useful Structure located on the Parcel in a way that minimizes and mitigates the visual impact of the Antenna.
6.
Controlling Chapter. Notwithstanding the various descriptions of land uses listed in the ordinances of the City relative to communication facilities, and the manner in which those various Uses are listed as Permitted or Conditional Uses in the respective chapters of this Title, the provisions of this Section and the Land Use Matrix shall prevail in governing the placement of wireless communication facilities, low power radio services facilities, and appurtenant facilities in the City, including the designation of Permitted and Conditional Uses in the various land-use districts.
(Ord. No. 2020-02, § IV(Exh. C), 1-8-2020; Ord. No. 2021-06, § XIII, 5-26-2021; Ord. No. 2022-08, § I(Exh. A), 4-13-2022; Ord. No. 2022-16, § 1(Exh. A), 9-14-2022; Ord. No. 2024-28, § II (Exh. B, § IV), 12-11-2024)

(Ord. No. 2020-02, § IV(Exh. C), 1-8-2020)
A.
The land use authority shall issue a Conditional Use Permit, describing the scope of the permit and all reasonable conditions of approval if the Application complies with Code and the Applicant has proposed, or the land use authority has required, conditions to substantially mitigate the reasonably anticipated detrimental effects of the proposed Use.
B.
If the land use authority determines that the Application does not comply with the standards and criteria of this Chapter and the Applicant has not proposed or the land use authority cannot impose additional, reasonable conditions of approval to that would bring the proposal within the standards and criteria of this Code, the land use authority may deny the Conditional Use Permit Application.
(Ord. No. 2020-02, § IV(Exh. C), 1-8-2020)
A.
The land use authority may reasonably modify the conditions of a Conditional Use Permit if the actual detrimental effects of previously identified adverse impacts are greater than anticipated, or the proposed mitigation has been unsuccessful at mitigating those actual detrimental effects to comply with the standards of this Code.
B.
Modification proceedings may be initiated by the Applicant, the City, or an injured party with standing. The party seeking the modification must pay the costs associated with the modification proceedings and file a petition for modification with the City. Modification proceedings are conducted in the same manner as an initial review.
C.
The Conditional Use permit holder is a necessary party to these proceedings and shall be afforded due process.
(Ord. No. 2020-02, § IV(Exh. C), 1-8-2020)
A.
A Conditional Use may not be expanded without first undergoing modification proceedings, as provided in Section 17.05.060, and obtaining a Conditional Use Permit that addresses and allows the proposed expansion of the Conditional Use.
B.
Expansion of a Conditional Use occurs if the square footage of a Structure on a property subject to a Conditional Use Permit or associated with a Use listed as "Conditional" in this Title's Land Use Matrix will be increased by greater than ten (10) percent of the square footage existing at the time of the initial Conditional Use Application.
C.
A Conditional Use has grown if any of the following occurs:
1.
The pedestrian or vehicle traffic has increased by greater than twenty (20) percent than was anticipated at the time of the initial Conditional Use Application, and the increased traffic is a result or impact of the Use;
2.
Off-Street parking has become inadequate due to the number of customers, employees, or occupants associated with the Conditional Use; or
3.
Other detrimental effects, such as noise, odor, or light pollution, have increased beyond what was reasonably anticipated at the time of the initial Conditional Use Application.
D.
The City may initiate modification proceedings if a Conditional Use has grown to the extent provided in this Section.
(Ord. No. 2020-02, § IV(Exh. C), 1-8-2020)

The Conditional Use Permit was obtained by fraud or misrepresentation;
2.
One or more of the conditions of the Permit have not been met;
3.
The holder or user of the permit has failed to comply with any local, state, or federal laws governing the conduct of the Conditional Use;
4.
The holder or user of the Permit has failed to construct or maintain the site as shown on the approved plans; or
5.
A Conditional Use has been expanded or grown and cannot mitigate the detrimental effects of that expansion or growth.
B.
Revocation is appropriate when the Applicant has knowingly engaged in conduct that violates the Conditional Use Permit, or when the holder or user has previously had the Permit suspended. Notice shall be given of a pending revocation and the Property Owner will be given a reasonable opportunity to cure the violation in the same manner as provided for other violations of ordinances in this Title.
(Ord. No. 2020-02, § IV(Exh. C), 1-8-2020)
The issuance of a Conditional Use Permit does not excuse an Applicant from applying for and obtaining Building Permits for the location, unless Building Permits are not required for the approved Conditional Use.
(Ord. No. 2020-02, § IV(Exh. C), 1-8-2020)
A.
Conditional Use Not Implemented. A Conditional Use Permit expires if the Permit has not been implemented within two (2) years from the date of approval. The Permit is considered implemented if the holder of the Permit engages in the Conditional Use on the site or maintains an active building permit (excluding demolition permits) on the site for which the Conditional Use Permit was granted.
B.
Conditional Use Abandoned. If the approved Conditional Use or activity ceases for any reason or does not maintain an active building permit for a continuous period of two (2) years or more, the Conditional Use Permit shall automatically terminate without further notice, as having been abandoned. A person may only reinstate the Conditional Use after applying for and receiving a new Conditional Use Permit.
