[Added 7-11-1996 by Ord.
No. 96-36]
The Township Committee for the Township of Lacey has become concerned
about the appearance and impact of satellite dish antennas. Unless
regulated, dish antennas can be installed in such a manner as to make them
aesthetically unpleasant, with an adverse impact on surrounding property values.
The purpose of this chapter is to regulate the placement of satellite dish
receiving antennas to avoid any adverse impact on the aesthetic beauty of
the Lacey Township community.
It shall be unlawful for any person to install, repair, maintain or
operate, either as owner or as agent, servant or employee of the owner, or
as independent contractor for the owner, or otherwise, any outside satellite
disc receiving antenna, unless and until a zoning permit shall have first
been obtained from the Township Zoning Officer.
No permit for the installation, repair, maintenance or operation of
a satellite disc receiving antenna shall be issued if the location of the
satellite disc receiving antenna, or any part or portion thereof, is in violation
of any height, setback or side yard zoning requirements applicable to the
property in which it is or shall be located, unless a bulk variance shall
first have been obtained by the Township Zoning Board of Adjustment.
Application for permits shall be made upon blank forms provided by the
Township Zoning Officer and shall contain or have attached thereto, in addition
to all other information required for a zoning permit, a structural drawing
setting forth the proposed or existing size and location of the satellite
disc receiving antenna and all existing structures on the site and distances
from lot lines and structures on adjoining lots.
