(A) The city acknowledges that the science of electromagnetic frequencies (EMF) from wireless frequencies is currently in the early stages of scientific research. Facility operators assume all legal responsibility for the installation of small cellular devices including any and all future claims of health damage associated with the operation of such small cell facilities.
(B) At all times, the permittee shall ensure that the facility complies with the most current industry standards for size and regulatory and operational standards including, but not limited to, RF emissions standards adopted by the FCC.
(C) Permittee, at its sole expense, shall provide annual tests of RF emittances to city no later than November 15th of each year.
(D) If the city determines that there is good cause to believe that the wireless communication facility may emit RF emissions that are likely to exceed FCC standards, the City Administrator or his/her designee may require the permittee to submit a technically sufficient written report certified by a qualified independent RF emission engineer, certifying that the facility is in compliance with such FCC standards within ninety (90) days.
