21.46.060 Safety-related development standards for antenna and telecommunications facilities.
   (a)   The safety-related development standards set forth in this section apply in all zoning districts to the siting, construction, and operation of the following antenna and telecommunications facilities:
      (1)   Satellite earth station antennas that are permitted accessory uses.
      (2)   Satellite earth station antennas that are subject to a building permit.
      (3)   Satellite earth station antennas that require conditional use permit approval and the issuance of building permits.
   (b)   The safety-related development standards are as follows:
      (1)   No satellite earth station antenna may be installed in any zoning district if it will impede normal vehicular or pedestrian circulation, ingress to, or egress from any building, structure, or parking facility.
      (2)   Any mast that will be used to elevate a satellite earth station antenna must be constructed of noncombustible and corrosive-resistant materials.
      (3)   All satellite earth station antennas must be installed with adequate ground wire to protect against a direct strike of lightning. The ground wire must be of a type approved by the electrical code for grounding masts and lightning arrestors.
      (4)   All satellite earth station antennas must be separated from adjacent power lines by such vertical and horizontal distance as is required by the electrical code and by other applicable laws and regulations.
      (5)   Any mast that will be used to elevate a satellite earth station antenna must be secured by a separate safety wire in a direction away from adjacent power lines or other potential hazards.
      (6)   To the extent feasible, all cables, wires, or similar electrical transmission devices that connect with a satellite earth station antenna must be placed underground.
      (7)   All connectors on a satellite earth station antenna, and on any mast to be used for elevation, must be capable of sustaining a wind load of the magnitude specified in the building code.
      (8)   No satellite earth station antenna, nor any of its component parts or accessory facilities, may encroach into the public rights-of-way.
      (9)   All satellite earth station antennas must be maintained in good repair, in a neat and clean condition, and in compliance with all applicable building, fire, and electrical codes.
