The permit application process shall be administered in a nondiscriminatory manner, using standardized procedures, and according to the following timelines, consistent with FCC requirements:
A. Macro-cell facilities.
1. No later than 30 days from the date of receipt of the permit application, the city will determine if the application is complete, and whether the applicant has applied for all other required land use entitlements and other required state, federal, or city permits or licenses. If no determination is made within the 30-day period, the application is deemed complete.
2. If an application is complete, or upon expiration of the 30-day period for making that determination, the city shall process the application, and meet with the applicant as needed to determine whether an application should be approved, conditionally approved, or denied for good cause.
3. If an application is incomplete, the city shall notify the applicant in writing of the nature and extent of the deficiencies. If the applicant fails to provide the missing information within 60 calendar days of being notified by the city that the application is incomplete, the application is deemed withdrawn, without prejudice, by the applicant.
B. Small-cell facilities.
1. No later than 10 days from the date of receipt of a permit application, the city will determine if the application is complete, and whether the applicant has applied for all other required entitlements and other required state, federal, or city permits or licenses. If no determination is made within the 10-day period, the application is deemed complete.
2. If an application is complete, or upon expiration of the 10-day period for making that determination, the city shall process the application, and meet with the applicant as needed to determine whether an application should be approved, conditionally approved, or denied for good cause.
3. If an application is incomplete, the city shall notify the applicant in writing of the nature and extent of the deficiencies. (Ord. 2020-0018 § 2)
