(5) 
Provide for placement of such antennas in locations that preserve access to rear property areas by fire-fighting apparatus and emergency personnel.
B. 
Definitions. As used in this section, the following terms shall have the meanings indicated:
OWNER
The holder of record of an estate in possession in fee simple or for life in land or real property, or a vendee of record under a land contract for the sale of an estate in possession in fee simple or for life, but does not include the vendor under a land contract. A tenant in common or joint tenant shall be considered such owner to the extent of his/her interest. The personal representative of at least one owner shall be considered an owner.
SIGNAL-RECEIVING ANTENNA
Any outdoor apparatus capable of receiving communications from a transmitter or a transmitter relay located in a planetary orbit. This definition includes all types of signal-receiving antennas and over-the-air reception devices, including, without limitation, parabolic antennas, home earth stations, satellite television disks, UHF and VHF television antennas, and AM, FM, ham and short-wave radio antennas, regardless of the method of mounting.
