(A) Prior to the approval of any application for a special use permit for wireless telecommunications facilities, a public hearing before the Planning Commission shall be held by the city, notice of which shall be published in the official newspaper of the city no less than 15 calendar days prior to the scheduled date of the public hearing. In order that the city may notify nearby landowners, the application shall contain the names and addresses of all landowners whose property is located within 1,500 feet of any property line of the lot or parcel on which the new wireless telecommunications facilities are proposed to be located.
(B) There shall be no public hearing required for an application to co-locate on an existing tower or other structure, as long as there is no proposed increase in the height of the tower or structure, including attachments thereto.
(C) The city shall schedule the public hearing referred to in division (A) of this section once it finds the application is complete. The city, at any stage prior to issuing a special use permit, may require such additional information as it deems necessary.
