(A) Time. An eligible facility request shall be approved or denied by the town within 60 days of the town’s receipt of the initial application. This time period may be tolled only by mutual agreement or when an application is incomplete. If the town fails to approve or deny an eligible facility request within 60 days of the town’s receipt of the completed application (accounting for any tolling), the request shall be deemed granted; provided that this automatic approval shall become effective only upon the town’s receipt of written notice from the applicant after the review period has expired (accounting for any tolling) indicating that the application has been deemed granted.
(B) Approval. The following standards shall apply to an eligible facility request, in lieu of any other provisions of this chapter:
(1) The town shall approve an eligible facility request that does not substantially change the physical dimensions of a tower or base station;
(2) The town may approve an eligible facility request that substantially changes the physical dimensions of a tower or base station if it complies with the remainder of this code; and
(3) The town may condition the approval of any eligible facility request on compliance with generally applicable Building, Structural, Electrical and Safety Codes or with other laws codifying objective standards reasonably related to health and safety.
