Article XIII Accessory Uses

Any wireless communication facility with or without a support structure qualifying as a nonaccessory use shall be a permitted use as of right within the I Light Industrial Zoning District and at any and/or all municipal/governmental facilities located within the Township. Wireless communication facilities located on any municipal/government facility shall conform to the same setback and other requirements as if the municipal/government facility was located in the I Light Industrial Zone.

[Amended 7-14-2008 by Ord. No. 2008-6]

Any wireless communications facility with or without a support structure qualifying as a nonaccessory use shall be permitted as a conditional use within the Commercial Zoning Districts outlined in Article IV of this chapter, the INS Institutional, OS Open Space and C Cemetery Zoning Districts, with the following exception:

No wireless communications facility shall be located on any public or private school property, including but not limited to day-care, preschool, elementary and secondary school facilities and where students are regularly on the premises.

Micro facilities shall be permitted as a conditional use only within the rights-of-way of the Commercial Zoning Districts outlined in Article IV of this chapter.

High power microwave communications antennas shall not be permitted within Marple Township.

General standards applicable to all wireless and attached communication facilities.

[Amended 5-10-1999 by Ord. No. 99-4]

Antennas shall be located so as to minimize visual effects on adjacent and neighboring properties, public rights-of-way and parks and public open space.

Antennas shall be placed where existing topography, vegetation, buildings or other structures provide the greatest amount of visual screening, particularly when visible from properties used for residential purposes.

The wireless communication facility with support structure shall be the minimum height required to provide reasonable service within the applicant's grid. No facility that is taller than this minimum height shall be approved, except to facilitate collocation.

Antennas shall be attached to existing tall structures such as communications towers, smokestacks, buildings and similar structures when these are available for a proper installation. The applicant shall indicate the options studied and the reasons for their rejection.

(5)

The antenna support structure shall be designed with the capability of collocating two additional users when doing so will not cause an adverse impact to the health, safety and welfare of the surrounding properties. When collocating is desirable, applicants shall agree that space on the proposed support structure will be made available to other operators and the conditions governing this collocating will be reasonable.

(6)

Antennas must be in compliance with all applicable Federal Communications Commission regulations and all other applicable regulations.

(7)

Roof-mounted antennas shall be placed so as to be least visible from properties being used for residential purposes.

(8)

The wireless communication facility shall be secure from unauthorized access and shall not pose climbing or electrocution hazards.

(9)

Signs shall be limited to ownership, hazard and emergency contact and in accordance with applicable OSHA requirements. Unless indicated otherwise by OSHA regulations, signs shall be limited a maximum of three square feet in area.

(10)

Suitable locations shall not be rejected without due cause. These can include but not be limited to:

The attachment structure in question requires strengthening and this will add more than 50% to the total installed cost.

The attachment structure in question does not have adequate space, access or height or is in an improper location to accommodate the proposed equipment or to allow it to perform its intended function.

The installation in question will result in radio frequency interference with other existing equipment and corrective actions will increase the installed cost by more than 50%.

The location in question will produce electromagnetic radiation that is above FCC standards for human exposure in close proximity to the antenna and where people have normal access and corrective actions will increase the installed cost by more than 50%.

A commercially reasonable agreement could not be reached with the owners of the structures or property in question.

(11)

The technology selected shall enable the lowest possible level with regard to emitted radiation to be utilized. The antenna array shall be designed and installed so that the radiation is directed to minimize impinging directly on residential properties, nonadult schools and playgrounds within four times the array height distance from the antenna. The applicant shall calculate power densities for all occupied parts of these kinds of nearby locations. These shall be compared with the main radiation pattern in order to show how directionally effective the design is and how the impact values compare with the maximum values allowed by the FCC regulations. If more than one provider exists or will exist at the location or a nearby location, the impact values shall be the sum for all providers operated at their maximum permitted power output level.

(12)

Antenna installations should be minimally intrusive on nearby residential properties.

Wireless communication facilities within the right-of-way.

Uses permitted. Micro facilities are the only type of wireless communication facilities permitted in a right-of-way.

Support structure. The antenna array must be mounted on a monopole support structure, such as a utility pole, in compliance with construction standards approved by the Township Engineer. The support structure shall be of essentially the same appearance as the existing support structures and must be located in proximity to other similar support structures within the right-of-way. The new support structure should not exceed 60 feet.

Right-of-way use agreement. Every provider who desires to construct, install or maintain wireless communication facilities in the right-of-way must enter into a right-of-way use agreement with the appropriate municipal entity owning the right-of-way. This is a prerequisite to the issuance of right-of-way use permits.

Right-of-way use permit required. Every provider who constructs, installs or maintains a wireless communication facility in the right-of-way must obtain a right-of-way use permit for each such facility by making application to the Department of Code Enforcement for each location and paying a fee therefor as set forth from time to time by resolution of the Board of Commissioners. A single application may request permits for multiple sites along a single corridor.

Nature of grant. A use permit shall not convey title, equitable or legal, in the right-of-way. A use permit grants the right to occupy right-of-way in the Township and may also grant the right to erect a new support structure.

Support structure attachment agreement. If the antenna array is to be erected on a third party's support structure, the consent of the third party must be attached to the application. If the antenna array is to be erected on a Township support structure, the application shall include a request thereof. If granted, the provider must enter into a support structure attachment agreement with the Township and pay an annual fee for the use of the Township's facilities.

Transfer of permit. Use permits may be transferred upon notification to the Township and acceptance by the transferee, but only to a provider who is a party to a current right-of-way use agreement with the owning entity.

Term of use permits. Use permits shall have a one-year term, automatically renewable, subject to then-current code provisions and the payment of an annual user fee to the Township.

Location. The Township shall refuse to issue a use permit if the proposed location of the wireless communication facility interferes with the use of the right-of-way by others or is contrary to public safety. The Township shall require a permitted wireless communication facility to be relocated at the permittee's expense if necessary to accommodate the location or relocation of the right-of-way facilities of the Township or a public utility or to protect the public safety.

(5)

Equipment facility. In the event that any equipment facility of an outside volume exceeding eight cubic feet is installed in the right-of-way, such equipment facility must be installed so that the roof or lid is either below or is flush with local ground-level grade. All such equipment facilities shall be shown in the application. The Board of Commissioners may grant a waiver to this requirement, on a case-by-case basis, upon the applicant's showing of need, provided that the facility does not constitute an obstruction in the right-of-way which would endanger public safety.

Equipment cabinets of any size on a support base located outside of the right-of-way used in conjunction with a wireless communications facility within the right-of-way will not be considered a separate use of the property upon which they are located, except in a residentially zoned district.

Nonaccessory wireless communications facilities outside right-of-way.

[Amended 5-10-1999 by Ord. No. 99-4]

Height.

Attached wireless communication facilities.

All antenna array elements shall be at least 35 feet above grade as measured from the bottom of any element to grade. Attachment structures must be at a minimum of 35 feet above grade on all sides of the structure. These minimum height requirements will waved if the contra-wound toroidal helical antenna technology or similar technology receives FCC approval for a lesser mounting height.

The height of the antenna array may not exceed the height of the attachment structure by more than 25 feet.

If a wireless communication facility or its appurtenances extend above the primary roof of any attachment structure, they must be set back one foot from the edge of the primary roof for each one foot in height above the primary roof which the wireless communication facility extend unless the facility is appropriately screened from view through the use of panels, walls or other screening techniques approved by the Township.

Setback requirements shall not apply to a wireless communication facility which is mounted on the exterior of an attachment structure below the primary roof and which does not protrude more than 18 inches from the side of such attachment structure.

Wireless communication facilities with support structure.

The maximum height of any wireless communication facility shall be 150 feet.

The measurement of height for the purpose of determining compliance with these requirements shall be from grade and shall include the support structure itself, the base pad and any facilities attached thereto.

Setbacks from base of support structure. If a new support structure is constructed (as opposed to mounting the wireless communication facility on an existing support structure), the minimum distances between the base of the support structure or any guy-wire anchors and any property line or right-of-way line shall be the largest of the following:

The minimum setback from Residential and Institutional Zoning Districts shall be the greater of 200% of the maximum height above adjacent grade of the uppermost part of the antenna-support structure installation.

In Commercial and Institutional Zoning Districts, all wireless communication facilities with support structure shall be set back a minimum distance of one foot for each foot in height from adjacent properties that are in the same or like Commercial or Institutional Zoning Districts.

In Industrial Zoning Districts, all wireless communication facilities with support structure shall be set back a minimum distance of 25 feet, plus one foot for each additional foot in height above 100 feet from adjacent properties in the same Industrial Zoned District. In no case shall the minimum setback from adjacent Commercial, Institutional or Residential Zoning Districts be less than that required if the property were zoned the same as the adjacent district.

The setback requirements for any and all municipal/governmental facilities located within the Township, no matter what district such facility is located in, shall be the same setback requirements as if the municipal/government facility was located in the I Light Industrial Zone.
