(A) Denial in General. The city may deny a permit for failure to meet the requirements and conditions of this chapter or if the city determines that the denial is necessary to protect the health, safety, and welfare or when necessary to protect the right-of-way and its current use.
(B) Procedure for Denial on Permits other than Small Wireless Facilities Permits. The denial of a permit must be made in writing and must document the basis for the denial. The city must notify the applicant or right-of-way user in writing within three business days of the decision to deny a permit. If an application is denied, the right-of-way user may address the reasons for denial identified by the city and resubmit its application. If the application is resubmitted within 30 days of receipt of the notice of denial, no additional application fee shall be imposed. The city must approve or deny the resubmitted application within 30 days after submission.
(C) Procedure for Denial on Small Wireless Facilities Permits. The city shall approve or deny a small wireless facility permit application within 90 days after filing of such application, unless the collocation is on a support structure that already qualifies as an existing wireless tower or base station under Section 6409(a), codified at 47 U.S.C. 1455(a), which, in those instances, the city shall approve or deny the small wireless facility permit within 60 days. The small wireless facility permit, and any associated building permit application, shall be deemed approved if the city fails to approve or deny the application within the review periods established in this section.
(D) Tolling of Deadline on Small Wireless Facility Permit. The deadline for action on a small wireless facility permit application may be tolled if:
(1) The city receives applications from one or more applicants seeking approval of permits for more than 30 small wireless facilities within a seven-day period. In such case, the city may extend the deadline for all such applications by 30 days and shall inform the affected applicant in writing of such extension.
(2) The applicant fails to submit all required documents or information and the city provides written notice of incompleteness to the applicant within 30 days of receipt the application. Upon submission of additional documents or information, the city shall have ten days to notify the applicant in writing of any still-missing information.
(3) The city and a small wireless facility applicant agree in writing to toll the review period.
