A. Village Review Of Permit Applications: Completed permit applications, containing all required documentation, shall be examined by the Village Engineer on a nondiscriminatory basis. If the application does not conform to the requirements of applicable ordinances, codes, laws, rules, or regulations that concern public safety, the Village Engineer shall notify the applicant of the basis for a denial, including specific code provisions upon which the denial was based. The applicant may cure the deficiencies and resubmit a revised application without paying additional application fees.
B. Permit Approval Or Denial: When reviewing applications for small wireless facilities, the Village will approve or deny the revised application within thirty (30) days after the applicant resubmits the application or it will be deemed approved. If the Village Engineer is satisfied that the proposed work conforms to the requirements of this chapter and applicable ordinances, codes, laws, rules, and regulations, the Village Engineer shall issue a permit. In all instances, it shall be the duty of the applicant to demonstrate, to the satisfaction of the Village Engineer, that the construction proposed under the application shall be in full compliance with the requirements of this chapter.
C. Application Deadlines For Small Wireless Facilities: Applications are deemed complete if the Village does not notify the applicant otherwise within thirty (30) days of receipt of the application. If the application to collocate a small wireless facility is to be placed on an existing utility pole, the Village will notify the applicant of its approval or denial within ninety (90) days. If the Village fails to notify the applicant within that timeframe, the application will be deemed approved. If the application to collocate a small wireless facility requires the installation of a new utility pole, the Village will notify the applicant of its approval or denial within one hundred twenty (120) days. If the Village fails to notify the applicant within that timeframe, the application will be deemed approved. (Ord. G-1130, 7-10-2018)
