(a) A zoning permit is required for a class 2 collocation. A class 2 collocation is a permitted use, but still requires the issuance of a zoning permit.

(b) A zoning permit application must be completed by any applicant and submitted to the Department. The application must contain the following information:

1. The name, business address and the phone number of the contact individual for the applicant. The applicant should include an email address if available.

2. The location of the proposed or affected mobile service support structure.

3. The location of the proposed mobile service facility.

(c) A zoning permit application will be provided by the Department upon request to any applicant.

(d) Requirements. A class 2 collocation is subject to the same requirements for the issuance of a zoning permit to which any other type of commercial development or land use development is subject.

This will require construction plans which describe the proposed equipment and network components including antennas, transmitters, receivers, base stations, power supplies, cabling, and related equipment to be placed on or around the existing mobile service support structure. The construction plan shall include a scaled site plan which shows property lines, lease areas, structures including support structure, buildings, equipment pads, and fencing.

If an applicant submits to the Department an application for a zoning permit to engage in an activity described in this ordinance, which contains all of the information required under this ordinance, the Department shall consider the application complete. If any of the required information is not in the application, the Department shall notify the applicant in writing, within five (5) days of receiving the application, that the application is not complete. The written notification shall specify in detail the required information that was incomplete. An applicant may resubmit an application as often as necessary until it is complete.

(f) Department Requirements. Within forty-five (45) days of its receipt of a completed application, the Department shall complete all of the following or the applicant may consider the application approved, except that the applicant and the Department may agree in writing to an extension of the forty-five (45) day period:

1. Make a final decision whether to approve or disprove the application.

2. Notify the applicant, in writing, of its final decision.

3. If the application is approved, issue the applicant the relevant zoning permit.
