The Telecommunications Act of 1996 affirmed the Village of Hewlett Neck's authority concerning the placement, construction and modification of wireless telecommunication facilities. The Board of Trustees of the Village of Hewlett Neck finds that wireless telecommunication facilities may pose significant concerns to the health, safety, public welfare, character and environment of the Village and its inhabitants. The Board of Trustees also recognizes that facilitating the development of wireless service technology can be of significant benefit to the Village and its residents. The intent of this chapter is to minimize the impact of wireless telecommunication facilities, establish a fair and efficient process for review and approval of applications, assure an integrated, comprehensive review of environmental impacts of such facilities, and protect the health, safety and welfare of the Village of Hewlett Neck and its residents.
For purposes of this chapter, and where not inconsistent with the context of a particular section, the defined terms, phrases, words, abbreviations, and their derivations shall have the meaning given in this section. When not inconsistent with the context, words in the present tense include the future tense, words used in the plural number include words in the singular number and words in the singular number include the plural member. The word "shall" is always mandatory, and not merely directory.
An accessory facility or structure serving or being used in conjunction with wireless telecommunication facilities and located on the same property or lot as the wireless telecommunication facilities, including but not limited to utility or transmission equipment storage sheds or cabinets.
Any wireless service provider submitting an application for a special use permit for wireless telecommunication facilities.
All necessary and appropriate documentation that an applicant submits in order to receive a special use permit for wireless telecommunication facilities.
The Board of Trustees of the Incorporated Village of Hewlett Neck.
The use of an existing tower or structure to support antennae for the provision of wireless services. A replacement tower that is constructed on the same site as an existing tower will be considered a co-location as long as the new tower is no taller than the old tower and the old tower is removed within 30 days after the new tower is constructed.
The inability to perform an act on terms that are reasonable in commerce, the cause or occurrence of which could not have been reasonably anticipated or foreseen and that jeopardizes the financial efficacy of the project. The inability to achieve a satisfactory financial return on investment or profit, standing alone, shall not deem a situation to be "commercially impracticable" and shall not render an act or the terms of an agreement "commercially impracticable."
An application that contains all information and/or data necessary to enable the Board to make an informed decision with respect to an application.
The federal Aviation Administration or its duly designated and authorized successor agency.

The codes referred to are codes that include, but are not limited to, construction, building, electrical, fire, safety, health and land use codes. In the event of a conflict between or among any of the applicable codes, the more stringent shall apply.
A holder of a special use permit granted under this chapter shall obtain, at its own expense, all permits and licenses required by applicable laws, statutes, codes, rules or regulations, and must maintain the same, in full force and effect, for as long as required by the Village or other governmental entity or agency having jurisdiction over the applicant.
An applicant shall submit to the Board the number of completed applications determined to be needed at the preapplication meeting. Written notification of the application shall be provided to the legislative body of all adjacent municipalities.
The holder of a special use permit shall notify the Village of any intended modification of a wireless telecommunication facility and shall apply to the Village to modify, relocate or rebuild a wireless telecommunication facility.
With respect to the application process, the Board will normally seek to declare itself as lead agency pursuant to the State Environmental Quality Review Act ("SEQRA"). The Board shall conduct an environmental review of the proposed project pursuant to SEQRA as part of its review of the application.
Applicants for wireless telecommunication facilities shall locate, site and erect said wireless telecommunication facilities in accordance with the following priorities, (1) being the highest priority and (4) being the lowest priority.
On existing towers or other structures on Village-owned properties, including Village-owned rights-of-way.
A new tower on Village-owned properties, including Village-owned rights-of-way.
If the proposed site is not proposed for the highest priority listed above, then a detailed explanation must be provided as to why a site of a higher priority was not selected. The person seeking such an exception must satisfactorily demonstrate the reason or reasons why such a special use permit should be granted for the proposed site, and the hardship that would be incurred by the applicant if the permit were not granted for the proposed site.
An applicant may not bypass sites of higher priority by stating the site proposed is the only site leased or selected. An application shall address co-location as an option. If such option is not proposed, the applicant must explain to the reasonable satisfaction of the Board why co-location is Commercially Impracticable. Agreements between providers limiting or prohibiting co-location shall not be a valid basis for any claim of commercial impracticability or hardship.
Notwithstanding the above, the Board may approve any site located within an area in the above list of priorities, provided that the Board finds that the proposed site is in the best interest of the health, safety and welfare of the Village and its inhabitants and will not have a deleterious effect on the nature and character of the community and surrounding properties.
Notwithstanding that a potential site may be situated in an area of highest priority or highest available priority, the Board may disapprove an application for any of the following reasons.
The Village's preference is for applicants to co-locate wireless telecommunication facilities on existing towers or others structures that do not require an increase in height to accommodate the co-located facilities. The applicant shall submit a comprehensive report inventorying existing towers and other suitable structures within two miles of the location of any proposed new tower, unless the applicant can show that some other distance is more reasonable and demonstrate conclusively why an existing tower or other suitable structure cannot be used.
Such shared use shall consist only of the minimum antenna array technologically required to provide service primarily and essentially within the Village, to the extent practicable; unless good cause is shown.
The applicant shall submit documentation justifying the total height of any tower, facility and/or antenna requested and the basis therefore. Documentation in the form of propagation studies must include all backup data used to perform at the requested height and a minimum of 10 feet lower height to allow verification of this height need. Such documentation will be analyzed in the context of the justification of the height needed to provide service primarily and essentially within the Village, to the extent practicable, unless good cause is shown.
No tower constructed after the effective date of this chapter, including allowing for all attachments, shall exceed that height which shall permit operation without required artificial lighting of any kind in accordance with federal, state and local laws, statutes, codes, rules or regulations.
Wireless telecommunication facilities shall not be artificially lighted or marked, except as required by law.
Towers shall be galvanized and/or painted with a rust-preventive paint of an appropriate color as specified by the Board, to harmonize with the surroundings and shall be maintained in accordance with the requirements of this chapter.
If lighting is required, the applicant shall provide a detailed plan for sufficient lighting of as unobtrusive and inoffensive an effect as is permissible under federal, state and local laws, statutes, codes, rules or regulations.
Wireless telecommunication facilities shall contain a sign no larger than four square feet in order to provide adequate notification to persons in the immediate area of the presence of RF radiation or to control exposure to RF radiation within a given area. A sign of the same size is also to be installed to contain the name(s) of the owner(s) and operator(s) of the antenna(e) as well as emergency phone number(s). The sign shall be on the equipment shelter or cabinet of the applicant and be visible from the access point of the site and must identify the equipment owner of the shelter or cabinet. On tower sites, an FCC registration sign as applicable shall also be present. The signs shall not be lighted, unless applicable law, rule or regulation requires lighting. No other signage, including advertising, shall be permitted.
All proposed towers and any other proposed wireless telecommunication facility structures shall be set back from abutting parcels, recorded rights-of-way and road and street lines by the greater of the following distances: A distance equal to the height of the proposed tower or wireless telecommunication facility structure plus 10% of the height of the tower or structure, or the applicable setback requirement of the underlying zoning district, whichever is greater. Any accessory structure shall be located so as to comply with the applicable minimum setback requirements for the property on which it is situated.
The Village may hire any consultant and/or expert necessary to assist the Village in reviewing and evaluating the application, including the construction and modification of the site, once permitted, and any site inspections.
An applicant shall deposit with the Village funds sufficient to reimburse the Village for all reasonable costs of consultant and expert evaluation and consultation to the Village in connection with the review of any application including, where applicable, the lease negotiation, the pre-application meeting, and the construction and modification of the site, once permitted. The initial deposit shall be $8,500. The placement of the $8,500 with the Village shall precede the pre-application meeting. The Village will maintain a separate escrow account for all such funds. The Village's consultants/experts shall invoice the Village for its services related to the application. If at any time during the process this escrow account has a balance less than $2,500, the applicant shall immediately, upon notification by the Village, replenish said escrow account so that it has a balance of at least $5,000. Such additional escrow funds shall be deposited with the Village before any further action is taken on the application. In the event that the amount held in escrow by the Village is more than the amount of the actual invoicing at the conclusion of the project, the remaining balance shall, upon request of the applicant, be promptly refunded to the applicant.
Prior to rendering a decision on any application for a special use permit for wireless telecommunication facilities, a public hearing shall be held by the Board, notice of which shall be published in the official Village newspaper at least 10 days prior to the scheduled date of the public hearing. In order that the Village may notify nearby property owners, the application shall contain the names and addresses, as shown on the current assessment roll of the Village, of the owners of all properties located within 1,500 feet of the exterior limits of the lot or parcel on which the new wireless telecommunication facilities are proposed to be located. The Village Clerk shall mail or caused to be mailed a copy of the notice of the public hearing, by first class mail, postmarked no less than 10 days nor more than 20 days prior to the scheduled date of the public hearing. An affidavit of mailing shall be filed with the Board prior to the hearing. Said affidavit shall contain a sworn statement by the affiant that he/she is the person who actually mailed the notices and a list of the names and addresses of the property owners who were notified.
A public hearing on an application for a special use permit for wireless telecommunication facilities shall not be scheduled until the application has been deemed complete. The Village may, at any time prior to rendering its decision on an application for a special use permit, require such additional information as it deems necessary.
The Village will undertake a review of an application pursuant to this Article in a timely fashion, consistent with its responsibilities, and shall act within a reasonable period of time given the relative complexity of the application and the circumstances, with due regard for the public's interest and need to be involved, and the applicant's desire for a timely resolution.
The Village may refer any application or part thereof to any advisory committee, other committee or commission for a nonbinding recommendation.
After the public hearing and after due consideration of the evidence in the record, the Board may approve, approve with conditions, or deny a special use permit. The Board's decision shall be in writing and shall be supported by substantial evidence contained in a written record. The burden of proof for the granting of the special use permit shall be upon the applicant.
The applicant shall be notified of the Board's decision within five business days thereof. Except for necessary building permits and subsequent certificates of compliance, once a special use permit has been granted hereunder, no additional permits or approvals from the Village, such as site plan or zoning approvals, shall be required by the Village for the wireless telecommunication facilities covered by the special use permit.
A special use permit is personal to the applicant and shall not be assigned, transferred or conveyed.
A special use permit may, following a public hearing upon due prior notice to the applicant, be revoked, canceled, or terminated for a violation of the conditions and provisions of the special use permit, or for a material violation of this chapter after prior written notice to the holder of the special use permit.
At the time that a person submits an application for a special use permit for a new tower, such person shall pay a nonrefundable application fee of $5,000 to the Village. If the application is for a special use permit for modifying or co-locating on an existing tower or other suitable structure, where no increase in height of the tower or structure is required, or for a temporary facility, the non-refundable fee shall be $2,500.
The applicant and the owner of record of any proposed wireless telecommunication facilities property site shall, at their cost and expense, be jointly required to execute and file with the Village a bond, or other form of security acceptable to the Village as to type of security and the form and manner of execution, in an amount of at least $75,000 for a tower facility and $25,000 for a co-location on an existing tower or other structure and with such sureties as are deemed sufficient by the Board to assure the faithful performance of the terms and conditions of this chapter and conditions of any special use permit issued pursuant to this chapter. The full amount of the bond or security shall remain in full force and effect throughout the term of the special use permit and/or until any necessary site restoration is completed to restore the site to a condition comparable to that which existed prior to the issuance of the original special use permit.
In order to verify that the holder of a special use permit for wireless telecommunication facilities and any and all lessees, renters, and/or licensees of wireless telecommunication facilities place and construct such facilities, including towers and antennae, in accordance with all applicable technical, safety, fire, building, and zoning laws, statutes, codes, rules, regulations and other applicable requirements, the Village may inspect all facets of said permit holder's, renter's, lessee's or licensee's placement, construction, modification and maintenance of such facilities, including, but not limited to, towers, antennae and buildings or other structures constructed or located on the permitted site.
For a wireless telecommunication facility on Village property, the commercial general liability insurance policy shall specifically include the Village and its officers, board members, employees, committee members, attorneys, agents and consultants as additional insureds.
The insurance policies shall contain an endorsement obligating the insurance company to furnish the Village with at least 30 days' prior written notice in advance of the cancellation of the insurance.
Renewal or replacement policies or certificates shall be delivered to the Village at least 15 days before the expiration of the insurance that such policies are to renew or replace.
Prior to the issuance of a building permit for a wireless telecommunication facility, the holder of the special use permit shall deliver to the Village a copy of each of the policies or certificates representing the insurance in the required amounts.
Any application for wireless telecommunication facilities that is proposed for Village property, pursuant to this chapter, shall contain a provision with respect to indemnification. Such provision shall require the applicant, to the extent permitted by law, to at all times defend, indemnify, protect, save, hold harmless, and exempt the Village and its officers, board members, employees, committee members, attorneys, agents and consultants from any and all penalties, damages, costs, or charges arising out of any and all claims, suits, demands, causes of action, or award of damages, whether compensatory or punitive, or expenses arising therefrom, either at law or in equity, which might arise out of, or are caused by, the placement, construction, erection, modification, location, product performance, use, operation, maintenance, repair, installation, replacement, removal, or restoration of said facility; excepting, however, any portion of such claims, suits, demands, causes of action or award of damages as may be attributable to the negligent or intentional acts or omissions of the Village or its servants or agents. With respect to the penalties, damages or charges referenced herein, reasonable attorneys' fees, consultants' fees, and expert witness fees are included in those costs that are recoverable by the Village.
The failure to comply with the provisions of this chapter or of any special use permit shall constitute a violation of this chapter and shall subject the applicant and the owner of the property to the enforcement provisions and procedures of Chapter 195, Article VIII, of the Village Code.
If a wireless telecommunication facility is repaired, rebuilt, placed, moved, relocated, modified or maintained in a way that is inconsistent or not in compliance with the provisions of this chapter or of the special use permit, then the Village shall notify the holder of the special use permit in writing of such violation. A special use permit holder in violation may be considered in default and subject to fines as in § 192-24 and, if a violation is not corrected to the satisfaction of the Village in a reasonable period of time, the special use permit is subject to revocation.
Wireless telecommunication facilities have been located, constructed, or modified without first obtaining, or in a manner not authorized by, the required special use permit, or any other necessary authorization, and the special permit may be revoked.
If the Board makes such a determination as noted in Subsection A of this section, then it shall notify the holder of the special use permit and the owner of the property that within 48 hours said wireless telecommunication facilities are to be removed.
The holder of the special use permit or the owner of the property shall dismantle and remove such wireless telecommunication facilities, and all associated structures and facilities, from the site and restore the site to as close to its original condition as is possible, such restoration being limited only by physical or commercial impracticability, within 90 days of receipt of written notice from the Village. However, if the owner of the property upon which the wireless telecommunication facilities are located wishes to retain any access roadway to the wireless telecommunication facilities, the owner may do so with the approval of the Village.
If wireless telecommunication facilities are not removed or substantial progress has not been made to remove the wireless telecommunication facilities within 90 days after the special use permit holder has received notice, then the Board may order officials or representatives of the Village to remove the wireless telecommunication facilities at the sole expense of the property owner and/or special use permit holder.
If the Village removes or causes to be removed the wireless telecommunication facilities, and the owner of the wireless telecommunication facilities does not claim and remove it from the site to a lawful location within 10 days, then the Village may take steps to declare the wireless telecommunication facilities abandoned, and sell them and their components and retain the proceeds therefrom. The Village may also cause the costs associated with the removal and disposal of the wireless telecommunication facilities to be assessed on the property in the same manner as a tax or assessment.
The Board of Appeals shall have the power to grant variances from the requirements of this chapter pursuant to and in accordance with the requirements of § 7-712-b of the Village Law and Chapter 195, Article VII, of the Village Code. In granting variances, the Board of Appeals shall grant the minimum variance that it shall deem necessary and adequate and at the same time preserve and protect the character of the neighborhood and the health, safety and general welfare of the Village and its residents. The applicant shall have the burden of demonstrating the hardship or difficulty that creates the need for the variance, and proving that the requested relief should be granted.
The holder of a special use permit issued pursuant to this chapter shall adhere to and comply with all applicable rules, regulations, standards, and provisions of any state or federal agency, including, but not limited to, the FAA and the FCC. Specifically included in this requirement are any rules and regulations regarding height, lighting, security, electrical and RF emission standards.
