(a) The Mayor or his or her Designee is hereby given authority to promulgate detailed Small Cell Design Guidelines with objective, technically feasible criteria applied in a non-discriminatory manner that reasonably match the aesthetics and character of the immediate area regarding all of the following, which the City shall consider in reviewing an application:
(1) The location of any ground-mounted small cell facilities;
(2) The location of a small cell facility on a wireless support structure;
(3) The appearance and concealment of small cell facilities, including those relating to materials used for arranging, screening, and landscaping;
(4) The design and appearance of a wireless support structure.
(b) The Small Cell Design Guidelines will provide examples of acceptable small cell facilities including visual depictions.
(c) The Small Cell Design Guidelines shall provide administrative and procedural guidance to applicants, such as a list of minimum application requirements.
(d) The provisions in this section shall not limit or prohibit the Mayor's or his or her Designee's discretion to promulgate and make publicly available other information, materials or requirements in addition to, and separate from, the Small Cell Design Guidelines which do not conflict with state or federal law.
(e) The Mayor or his or her Designee shall have authority to update or supplement the Small Cell Design Guidelines to address relevant changes in law, technology, or administrative processes. In the event of any conflict between the Small Cell Design Guidelines and the standards articulated in these supplemental provisions, the language of these supplemental provisions take precedence over the language of the Small Cell Design Guidelines.
