(a) The owner or occupant with written permission from the owner of any lot, premises or parcel of land within the City, who desires to construct an earth station on the lot, premises or land parcel, must first obtain a permit to do so from the City Building Inspector and the Planning Commission.
(b) The Building Inspector and the Planning Commission shall issue such permit, provided the applicant submits a written application upon forms provided and approved by the Building Inspector along with a plot plan of the lot, premises or land parcel attached, showing the exact location and dimensions of the proposed earth station; a description of the kind of earth station proposed; the exact location and dimensions of all buildings or structures; construction plans and specifications prepared by a professional engineer, showing the elevations of the proposed earth station upon completion; and a structural engineering analysis. Each application shall specify among other things, the name and address of the owner of the real estate; the applicant; the professional engineer who prepared the construction plans and specifications; and the person to be permitted to construct the proposed earth station.
(c) The applicant shall present documentation of the possession of any license or permit required by any Federal, State or local agency pertaining to the ownership, construction or operation of an earth station.
(d) The applicant shall submit with each application the sum of ten dollars ($10.00) which represents the permit fee provided, however, no such permit will be issued for any commercial or industrial ground satellite station without the applicant first having obtained approval from the Planning Commission for the construction, erection or installation of such commercial or industrial ground satellite station and after such approval has been obtained the applicant obtaining the permit from the Building Inspector as set forth hereinabove. The permit fee shall cover the costs of reviewing the construction plans and specifications, inspecting the final construction and processing the application.
(c) The Building Inspector must notify by certified mail owners of real estate adjoining the property upon which the proposed earth station is to be erected at least ten days before issuing a permit. The applicant shall provide the Building Inspector with a list of all such adjoining property owners and shall pay to the Building Inspector a sum of money equal to the cost of the certified mailings required herein. The failure of the applicant to provide the Building Inspector with the correct names of the owners of adjoining property shall not create any liability on the part of the Building Inspector or the City. The failure of an adjoining property owner to be notified pursuant to this section if the applicant has not made the correct property owners known to the Building Inspector shall be the sole responsibility of the applicant and should any action be brought to attempt to set aside any permit issued to an applicant who failed to provide the Building Inspector with the names of all adjoining property owners and should such action result in a decision or settlement that the applicant deems to be unsatisfactory, such decision or settlement shall be the sole responsibility of the applicant.
