The Act states that cities must adopt application fees, consistent with the Act, on or before August 1, 2018. The Act significantly restricts how the City can regulate small wireless facilities in its rights-of-way and in other locations in the City. Under the Act, facilities on utility poles in the City rightof-way are permitted uses, including power poles, traffic signal poles, and City owned streetlights. Small wireless facilities are also permitted uses in any zone that is exclusively commercial or industrial. Further, the Act limits the fees that a City can charge for permit review and for rent. This Ordinance establishes generally applicable standards consistent with the Act for the design, permitting, location, construction, deployment, regulation, operation, maintenance, repair and removal of small wireless facilities within the public rights-of-way and throughout the City.
