(a) Guidelines. The Architectural Board of Review shall enact and revise Design Guidelines for "small cell facilities," as that term is defined in Section 4939.01 of the Ohio Revised Code, and the accessory equipment, which are to be located anywhere in the Village, whether in a right of way or elsewhere. The authority to revise and modify the Design Guidelines shall cover technological advances which may change the way wireless signals are broadcast to consumers of wireless services. The Design Guidelines shall reasonably regulate the location and design of "small cell facilities" and accessory equipment so as to prevent the adverse impact of a location or design on a property or the public, while not unreasonably interfering with the rapid deployment of new telecommunications technologies. The current version of the duly adopted Design Guidelines shall be kept in the office of the Building Commissioner.
(b) Compliance. No person may erect a small cell facility, its accessory equipment, or any similar telecommunication facility or equipment in the Village without first obtaining the approval of the Architectural Board of Review and a building permit. In considering the permit request, the Architectural Board of Review shall reasonably apply the Design Guidelines to achieve the objectives of this ordinance.
(c) Appeal. The administration of the Design Guidelines shall be subject to the appeal provisions found in Section 1335.02 of the Codified Ordinances of Orange Village.
(d) Penalty. The failure to comply with the provisions of this Section, the Design Guidelines promulgated by the Board and the decisions of the Board in the administration of the Guidelines shall be subject to the penalties set forth in Section 1335.99 of this Chapter.
