Antennas may locate on any legally existing tower; provided, however, that any associated equipment buildings shall be subject to final development plan approval. All ground-mounted equipment would be subject to final plan approval.
b. 
Conditional use permits. No antenna or tower is permitted in districts zoned "C-1," "C-2" or "A-1" except by conditional use permit, or as otherwise expressly authorized in this Code; provided, that to the extent not inconsistent with applicable law, an antenna or tower and related structures and equipment may alternatively be authorized on City-owned property in districts zoned "A-1" by express approval in a valid, executed lease with the City, in lieu of a conditional use permit being obtained.
c. 
Not permitted. No tower is permitted in any residential district nor may any tower exceed one hundred fifty (150) feet in height in any district.
2. 
Height and setback limitations.
a. 
Permitted by right.
(1) 
Towers are permitted as a matter of right to a maximum height of one hundred (100) feet in "M-1" and "M-2" districts. Towers to a maximum height of one hundred fifty (150) feet are permitted if the applicant submits information certifying the capacity of the tower for two (2) additional providers and a letter of intent from the applicant indicating his/her intent to share space.
(2) 
Towers and accessory buildings shall meet the setbacks established for the applicable zoning district. An engineer shall certify that the fall zone will be within the setback area proposed.
(3) 
Where adjacent to a residential district, the setback shall be two hundred fifty (250) feet. Guy wires and other support devices shall be no closer than twenty (20) feet from any lot line.
b. 
Conditional use permits.
(1) 
Towers with a height not to exceed one hundred fifty (150) feet are allowed as an accessory use in districts zoned as "C-1," "C-2" or "A-1" by conditional use permit only, except as otherwise expressly authorized in this Code. However, all towers exceeding one hundred (100) feet shall be designed to accommodate at least two (2) additional providers.
[Ord. No. 1776 §2, 6-25-2014]
(2) 
Towers and accessory buildings shall meet the setbacks established for the applicable zoning district. An engineer shall certify that the fall zone will be within the setback area proposed.
(3) 
Where adjacent to a residential district, the setback shall be two hundred fifty (250) feet. Guy wires and other support devices shall be no closer than twenty (20) feet from any lot line.
3. 
Aesthetics.
a. 
General. All towers and accessory facilities shall be sighted to have the least practical adverse visual effect on the environment. Towers shall not be lighted except to assure human safety as required by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Towers should be a galvanized finish or painted as required by the Planning Commission unless other standards are required by the FAA. In all cases, monopole towers shall be preferable to guyed towers or freestanding structures. Towers should be designed and sighted so as to avoid, whenever possible, application of FAA lighting and painting requirements.
b. 
Antennas on structures other than towers. Antennas on the rooftop or above a structure shall be screened or constructed and/or colored to match the structure to which they are attached. Antennas mounted on the side of a building or structure shall be painted to match the color of the building or structure or the background against which they are most commonly seen. If an accessory equipment shelter is present, it must blend with the surrounding building(s) in architectural character or color.
c. 
Accessory equipment storage. Mobile or immobile equipment not used in direct support of a tower facility shall not be stored or parked on the site of the communication tower, unless repairs to the tower are being made.
d. 
Security fencing. All antenna support structures, antenna and any attachments thereto including, but not limited to, any stabilizing wires and anchors must be contained within a protective fence designed to prevent all persons, including children, from coming into contact with the same. Security fencing shall be colored or shall be of a design which blends into the character of the existing environment. The fence shall be at least six (6) feet high and at least twelve (12) radius feet from the antenna to provide the security as described herein.
e. 
Design. All communication towers shall be of a monopole design unless required by the Planning Commission to be architecturally compatible to the surrounding development.
f. 
Lighting. Towers shall not be artificially lighted, unless required by the FAA or other applicable authority. If lighting is required, the governing authority may review the available lighting alternatives and approve the design that would cause the least disturbance to the surrounding views.
g. 
Landscaping.
(1) 
Tower facilities shall be landscaped with a buffer of plant materials that effectively screens the view of the tower compound from adjacent properties and public rights-of-way. The standard buffer shall consist of a landscaped strip at least five (5) feet wide outside the security fence.
(2) 
Where the visual impact of a tower would be minimal, the landscaping requirement may be reduced or waived altogether.
(3) 
Existing mature tree growth and natural land forms on the site shall be preserved to the maximum extent possible. In some cases, such as towers sighted on large, wooded lots, natural growth around the property perimeter may be sufficient buffer.
4. 
Accessory use provisions. Antennas and towers are allowed as either principal or accessory uses in those districts which they are allowed. A different existing use or an existing structure on the same lot shall not preclude the installation of an antenna or tower on such lot. For purposes of determining whether the installation of a tower or antenna complies with district development regulations including, but not limited to, setback requirements, lot coverage requirements and other such requirements, the dimensions of the entire lot shall control. Towers that are constructed and antennas that are installed in accordance with the provisions of this Chapter shall not be deemed to constitute the expansion of a non-conforming use or structure.
5. 
Separation. No tower in excess of one hundred (100) feet in height shall be constructed less than one thousand five hundred (1,500) feet from the nearest existing tower in excess of one hundred (100) feet in height nor less than seven hundred fifty (750) feet from an existing tower less than one hundred (100) feet in height. No tower less than one hundred (100) feet in height shall be constructed within seven hundred fifty (750) feet of any existing tower. The minimum separation set forth above shall not apply to a tower that is determined by the Planning Commission to be an architecturally compatible element to the existing or proposed use of the property.
6. 
Co-location.
a. 
All towers shall be designed to accommodate at least three (3) two-way antennas for every one hundred fifty (150) feet of tower height or at least one (1) two-way antenna and one (1) microwave facility for every one hundred fifty (150) feet of tower height. The above requirements may be modified to provide the maximum number of compatible users within the radio frequency emission levels.
b. 
Conditional use permits may be conditioned upon at least two (2) other wireless providers being allowed to lease space at reasonable cost or upon the applicant making a good faith efforts to offer space on the tower.
D. 
Application And Permit Requirements. A site plan/application shall include the following:
1. 
Written authorization from the property owner of the proposed tower site.

Every public utility, cable company, video services provider and other users of the City's rights-of-way or adjacent easements to provide services shall comply with the supplemental regulations in this Section regarding the placement of accessory utility facilities on public or private property. For purposes of this Section, "accessory utility facilities" shall mean such facilities, including pedestals, boxes, vaults, cabinets, or other ground-mounted or below-ground facilities, that directly serve the property or local area in which the facility is placed, are not primarily for transmission or distribution to other locations, do not materially alter the character of the neighborhood or area, and otherwise are customarily found in such areas. Except where limited by other provisions of City ordinance, accessory utility facilities shall be subject to the following supplementary regulations:
1. 
Approval — design — location — application — notice. The design, location, and nature of all accessory utility facilities on private or public property shall require approval of the City, which approval shall be considered in a nondiscriminatory manner, in conformance with this Section, and subject to reasonable permit conditions as may be necessary to meet the requirements of this Section. To that end, prior to any construction, excavation, installation, expansion or other work on any accessory utility facility, the facility owner shall apply to the City and submit detailed plans for the City's review and approval. Contemporaneous with such application, the facility owner shall provide notice to all property owners on or directly adjacent to the property of the location of the proposed construction, excavation or other work. Such notice shall include a detailed description of the proposed work to be done, the exact location of proposed work and the anticipated time and duration of the proposed work. Notice shall be given at least five (5) business days prior to the commencement of any such work. In considering individual applications or multiple location applications, the City shall review the request to ensure the proposed accessory utility facilities do not impair public safety, harm property values or significant sight-lines, or degrade the aesthetics of the adjoining properties or neighborhood, taking into consideration reasonable alternatives. Any material changes or extensions to such facilities or the construction of any additional structures shall be subject to the requirements and approvals as set forth herein. Unless otherwise prohibited, accessory utility facilities subject to this Subsection may be located in minimum setback areas provided that all other requirements are met. To the extent permitted by Section 67.2707.1(3), RSMo., the time, method, manner and location of facilities to be located in the rights-of-way may be established or conditioned by the City to protect the rights-of-way or to ensure public safety. An inspection fee shall be required as may be established by the City to reimburse the City for the costs of review and inspection of accessory utility facilities as may be permitted by applicable law.
2. 
General regulations. The following general regulations apply to all accessory utility facilities:
a. 
All such facilities shall be placed underground, except as otherwise provided in Subsections (c) and (d) herein or as approved by conditional use permit.
b. 
All such facilities shall be constructed and maintained in such a manner so as not to emit any unnecessary or intrusive noise.
c. 
All facilities for which use has commenced shall be deemed abandoned after six (6) continuous months of non-use, and shall therefore be removed within thirty (30) days thereafter at the cost of the facility owner. Where deemed appropriate by the Public Works Director, the applicant may request and the Director may permit existing underground cables to remain in place where the detriment of removal would outweigh the benefits to the public. Land from which abandoned facilities are removed, whether private or public property, shall be restored within thirty (30) days of removal by the facility owner or have costs of such remedies charged to the facility owner. The facility owner shall restore the land using similar plantings or sod of the same type of grass immediately surrounding the land and shall replace all existing plantings damaged by the removal work with like plantings and shall replace all damaged existing grass areas with sod of the same type of grass as was damaged.
d. 
Unless otherwise restricted, utility poles for authorized above ground lines or facilities shall be permitted up to forty-five (45) feet in height, except for arterial roads where such poles shall be authorized on one side of such roads at up to sixty (60) feet in height, where utilities are not otherwise required to be placed underground; provided that such poles shall be no higher than necessary, maintained so as to avoid leaning from upright position, and without use of guy wires crossing rights-of-way or pedestrian routes except where approved by the City as necessary due to the lack of feasible alternatives.
e. 
Accessory utility facilities placed in designated historic areas may be subject to additional requirements regarding the placement and appearance of facilities as may be necessary to reasonably avoid or reduce any negative impact of such placement.
f. 
Any damage to landscaping or vegetation on private or public property during installation or maintenance of facilities shall be remedied by the facility owner within thirty (30) days of such damage.
g. 
No facility may be located so as to interfere, or be likely to interfere, with any public facilities or use of public property.
h. 
All utility facilities not authorized by this Subsection or specifically addressed elsewhere in the Platte City Zoning Ordinance shall be authorized only by a conditional use permit pursuant to Section 405.705 of this Chapter.
3. 
Residential districts. In residential districts and rights-of-way adjacent thereto, accessory utility facilities less than three and one-half (3.5) feet in height and covering less than eight (8) square feet in area may be installed above ground with the prior approval of the City. Except as otherwise may be authorized herein, any larger facility shall be installed underground or authorized to be installed above ground only by conditional use permit. All above ground facilities, where authorized, shall be placed in the rear yard wherever practical. If locating these facilities in the rear yard is not practical, then such facilities may be located in the side yard. Such facilities shall not be located in the front yard or within the public rights-of-way unless otherwise approved by the City upon a determination that all other alternatives are not feasible.
4. 
Non-residential districts. In non-residential districts and rights-of-way adjacent thereto, accessory utility facilities with a height of less than five (5) feet and covering less than sixteen (16) square feet in area may be installed above ground with the prior approval of the City. Except as otherwise may be authorized herein, any larger facility shall be installed underground or authorized to be installed above ground only by conditional use permit. All above ground facilities, where authorized, shall be placed in the rear yard wherever practical. If locating these facilities in the rear yard is not practical, then such facilities may be located in the side yard. Such facilities shall not be located in the front yard or within the public rights-of-way unless otherwise approved by the City upon a determination that all other alternatives are not feasible.
5. 
Landscape screening. A sight-proof landscape screen shall be provided for all authorized above ground facilities taller than three (3) feet in height or covering in excess of four (4) square feet in area. Such screen shall be required to sufficiently conceal the facility. A landscape plan identifying the size and species of landscaping materials shall be submitted by the utility and approved by the City prior to installation of any facility requiring landscape screening. The utility shall be responsible for the installation, repair, maintenance or replacement of screening materials. Alternative screening or concealment may be approved by the City to the extent it meets or exceeds the purposes of these requirements. Facilities located in rear yards may be exempted from screening where located so as not to be visible from (1) any public property and (2) more than two residential dwelling units. Any required screening shall be completed within the timeframe set forth in the permit required under this Section, or not less than thirty (30) days from issuance of the permit, if not otherwise stated.
6. 
Compliance with other laws. All accessory utility facilities shall be subject to all other applicable regulations and standards as established as part of the City Code, including, but not limited to, building codes, zoning requirements and rights-of-way management regulations in addition to the supplementary regulations herein. The provisions of this Section shall not apply to any circumstance or entity in which application under such circumstances is preempted or otherwise precluded by superseding law.
