(A) The city will undertake a review of an application pursuant to the special use permit procedure of § 151.297 and shall act within a reasonable period of time given the relative complexity of the application and the circumstances, with due regard for the public’s interest and need to be involved, and the applicant’s desire for a timely resolution.
(B) Except as modified herein, the special use permit procedure of §§ 151.295 through 151.305 shall be followed. The decision of the City Council shall be set forth in the minutes and shall be supported by substantial evidence contained in a written record. The burden of proof for the granting of a special use permit for wireless telecommunications facilities shall always be upon the applicant.
(C) If the city denies the special use permit for wireless telecommunications facilities or if such an ordinance fails to pass, then the applicant shall be notified of such denial or failure to pass, in writing, within ten calendar days of the city’s action.
