There are three (3) alternatives for the location of any wireless communication facility, accessory equipment or support structure within the right-of-ways located in the corporate limits of the City of Cookeville:
(1) Collocation. Collocation is the preferred alternative for locating a wireless communication facility and accessory equipment within the right-of-way. The provisions of Section 16.807 of this Chapter shall apply for collocation of any wireless communication facility and/or accessory equipment.
(2) Replacement of existing support structure. Replacement of an existing support structure is the second most preferred alternative for locating a wireless communication facility and accessory equipment within the right-of-way. The provisions of Section 16-808 of this Chapter shall apply for replacement of existing support structures to accommodate wireless communication facilities.
(3) New Support Structure. The least preferred alternative for locating a wireless communication facility and/or accessory equipment within the right-of-way is the installation of a new support structure. This alternative shall not be permitted until it has been verified that collocation and replacement of existing support structure alternatives as described in Sections 16-805(1) and 16-805(2) are not viable options. The provisions of Section 16-809 of this Chapter shall apply for the installation of any new support structure.
