§ 1326.03 APPLICATION FOR PERMIT; PLANS AND SPECIFICATIONS.
   (A)   Any owner of real estate who desires to construct or erect a dish-type satellite signal-receiving earth station on such real estate shall apply to the Building Commissioner for the permit referred to in § 1326.02. A part-owner, occupant or renter must have written permission from the owner of the lot, premises or parcel of land within the city on which such construction or erection is proposed.
   (B)   The applicant shall submit the permit application upon forms provided by the Building Commissioners, together with a plot plan of the lot, premises or parcel of land, showing the exact location of the proposed earth station and the location of all buildings on the subject lot; a description of the kind of earth station dish proposed; and three complete sets of construction plans, specifications and elevations of the proposed location with sufficient details to show the complete name and address of the subject property owner and the complete name and address of the person who prepared the plans and specifications. The application shall indicate the owner or owners of the subject property, the occupant of the subject premises and the contractor or other person who will be permitted to construct or erect the proposed earth station, who shall be a licensed contractor pursuant to the regulations of the city. All construction plans shall be certified with a professional engineer’s stamp. However, a resident who proposes to construct the earth station by himself or herself shall not be required to have his or her construction plans certified by a professional engineer and shall not be required to employ a licensed contractor for such construction. This exemption shall in no way apply to any other provision of this chapter.
   (C)   The Building Commissioner must notify adjoining property owners, by certified mail, of the proposed earth station site. The notice shall state that the adjoining property owner may register objections to be proposed earth station at the meeting of the Planning Commission at which the application is reviewed. Such notice shall be served not less than ten days prior to such meeting.
   (D)   The Building Commissioner shall review the submitted application and shall note thereon whether all of the requirements of this chapter have been satisfied. Other provisions of the Building Code and the provisions of the Zoning Code, so far as they are consistent with this chapter and applicable hereto, shall also apply to the construction of an earth station, except for additional permit fees.
   (E)   Once the requirements of this chapter have been satisfied, the application shall be referred to the Architectural Review Board, which shall have the final authority to grant or deny approval.
