(A) When a conditional use permit is requested, the following procedures shall apply, including those set forth in § 155.096 of this code of ordinances.
(B) As part of the process for all new towers or telecommunications support structures, there shall be a neighborhood meeting.
(C) The city shall schedule any required public hearing(s) once it finds the application is complete and there are no issues of noncompliance or conflict with applicable law, rule or regulation. The city shall not set a date for a hearing if the application is not complete or if there are unresolved issues of noncompliance. The city may, at any stage prior to issuing a conditional use permit or administrative approval, require such additional information as it deems necessary and that is not expressly prohibited from being required by applicable law as relates to the issue of the siting, construction or modification of or at a wireless telecommunications facility or complex.
(D) Upon Council approval, a conditional use permit shall be issued for a new tower or substantially modified wireless support structure or substantial co-location. Notwithstanding the preceding, the building permit for a new tower or other proposed support structure shall not be issued until an applicant has provided clear and convincing substantiating documentation governing the placement of the first antenna array of a carrier who has committed to use the structure prior to its construction and that carrier has been properly permitted under this chapter.
