As a means of evidencing existing conditions, the owner of a solar energy system shall file with the City Clerk an affidavit containing the following information:
(A) The applicant's full name and address, together with the full name and address of the fee owner of the property if different than that of the applicant;
(B) A legal description of the property affected;
(C) A certificate of survey or other document specifying the boundary lines of the affected property upon which the solar energy system is located;
(D) The names and addresses of all abutting owners to the affected property;
(E) Attaching photographs of the affected property depicting the solar energy system, the property upon which it is located, and its location with regard to neighboring properties; and
(F) A statement by the applicant that they have served, either personally or by registered or certified mail, all adjoining property owners with a notice that the applicant would be filing an affidavit pursuant to this section with the City Clerk and that they would have 30 days to review same and make any objections thereto by filing same with the City Clerk. In the event no objections are filed with the City Clerk within 30 days of the filing of the applicant's affidavit, the photographs attached thereto shall be presumed to be a true and correct pictorial depiction of the solar energy system, its location upon the affected property, and of all existing structures, trees, shrubberies, and other vegetation upon the affected property and upon all adjoining properties. Should a timely notice of objection be filed by any adjoining property owner, no presumption hereunder shall be created.
