Antenna locations where public exposure is likely. For roof-mounted, co-located or other situations wherein a
special permit is required hereunder, the application shall include:
[a] An assessment of potential public exposure to radio frequency (RF) energy from the proposed facility indicating the facility's compliance with applicable federal or state standards. The applicant shall identify the maximum exposure level, the locations at which this occurs and the estimated RF levels at specific locations of community interest, such as schools, residential buildings or commercial buildings. Assumptions used in the calculations shall be stated, including building heights and topography.
[b] A multiple-source exposure impact assessment shall be prepared if the wireless communications facility is to be situated on the same site as existing facilities, such as a tower or roof.
[c] Evidence that the maximum exposure to the general public will not exceed federal or state standards.
[d] An identification of rooftop areas to which the public may have access. The exposure in these areas shall be in compliance with the standards established by any federal or state agencies.
[e] An identification of how much of the roof, if any, should be designated a controlled environment due to RF field levels in accordance with the applicable federal or state standard.
[f] Notification to the building management if any portion of the roof needs to be identified as a controlled environment due to RF levels in excess of the guidelines in the applicable federal or state standards.
Requirements applicable to new wireless communications towers.
[a] Co-location not feasible.
[i] The applicant shall demonstrate to the Zoning Board of Appeals by clear and convincing evidence that no tower exists on which the antenna may co-locate, or that co-location is not feasible for any of the following reasons:
[A] The applicant has been unable to come to a reasonable agreement to co-locate on another tower. The names and addresses of other service providers approached shall be provided, accompanied by a written statement as to the reason an agreement could not be reached.
[B] The applicant's network of antenna locations is not adequate to properly serve its customers, and the use of facilities of other entities is not suitable for physical reasons.
[C] Adequate and reliable service cannot be provided from existing sites in a financially and technologically feasible manner consistent with the service provider's system requirements.
[D] Existing sites cannot accommodate the proposed antenna due to structural or other engineering limitations (e.g., frequency incompatibilities).
