(1) 
General terms. The ROW agreement shall include:
(a) 
The term of the ROW agreement shall be 10 years, which shall renew automatically unless terminated by the Town upon 90 days' written notice.
(b) 
The ROW agreement authorizes the provider's nonexclusive use of the public ROW for the sole purpose of installing, maintaining and operating communications facilities, including any pole built for the sole or primary purpose of supporting the communications facilities and any tower, to provide the services expressly authorized in the ROW agreement, subject to applicable laws, this chapter and the terms and conditions of the ROW agreement. The ROW agreement authorizes use only of the public ROW in which the Town has an actual interest. It is not a warranty of title or interest in any public ROW and it does not confer on the provider any interest in any particular location within the public ROW. No other right is granted except as expressly set forth in the ROW agreement. Nothing herein shall authorize the use of the Town's poles, towers, support structures, or other structures in the public ROW. All use of Town poles, towers, support structures, and other structures in the public ROW shall require a separate agreement (attachment agreement), and the payment of separate fees for such use.

(g) 
The Town shall have the right to access books and records, including audit rights, of the provider to determine that all applicable fees and payments have been made to the Town.
(h) 
The provider shall provide proof to the Town that it has a license or authority from the owner to use an existing pole, tower or support structure in the ROW for a communications facility.
(i) 
The terms and conditions are not exclusive and the Town reserves the right to require additional terms and conditions in the ROW agreement.
(2) 
Public ROW construction and installation requirements.
(a) 
ROW permit.
[1] 
Unless expressly authorized in this chapter or in writing by the Town, no person may construct, maintain or perform any other work in the public ROW related to communications facilities, poles built for the sole or primary purpose of supporting communications facilities, or towers without first receiving a permit to the extent required under this chapter, and any other permit or authorization required by applicable laws.
[2] 
The Town shall not issue a permit unless the applicant, or a provider on whose behalf the applicant is constructing communications facilities, poles or towers, has executed a ROW agreement required by this chapter, or otherwise has a current and valid franchise with the Town expressly authorizing use of the public ROW for the communications facilities, poles or towers proposed in the application, and all applicable fees have been paid.
(b) 
Location of new facilities.
[1] 
The provider shall not locate or maintain its communications facilities, poles and towers so as to unreasonably interfere with the use of the public ROW by the Town, by the general public or by other persons authorized to use or be present in or upon the public ROW.
[2] 
Aboveground placement of new poles and equipment cabinets shall meet the requirement set forth in § 192-2.3D of this chapter.
[3] 
Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Town or otherwise required by applicable laws, whenever any existing electric utilities or communications facilities are located underground within a public ROW, the provider with permission to occupy the same portion of the public ROW shall, if technically feasible, locate its communications facilities underground at its own expense. The Town may, in its sole discretion, approve aboveground placement of equipment cabinets, pedestals and similar equipment, pursuant to § 192-2.3D of this chapter. For facilities or equipment such as wireless facilities that cannot, by their nature, operate unless located aboveground, the provider and Town shall work to find a suitable location for such facilities or equipment, which may be outside the public ROW.
(c) 
Construction standards. In performing any work in or affecting the public ROW, the provider, and any agent or contractor of the provider, shall comply with the applicable provisions of § 192-2.5 of this chapter and all other applicable laws.
(d) 
Restoration requirements.
[1] 
The provider, or its agent or contractor, shall restore, repair and/or replace any portion of the public ROW that is damaged or disturbed by the provider's communications facilities, poles, towers or work in or adjacent to the public ROW as required in § 192-2.5 of this chapter and all other applicable laws.
[2] 
If the provider fails to timely restore, repair or replace the public ROW as required in this subsection, the Town or its contractor may do so and the provider shall pay the Town's costs and expenses in completing the restoration, repair or replacement.
(e) 
Removal, relocation and abandonment.
[1] 
Within 120 days following written notice from the Town, the provider shall, at its own expense, protect, support, temporarily or permanently disconnect, remove, relocate, change or alter the position of any of its communications facilities, poles, support structures or towers within the public ROW, including relocation of aboveground communications facilities underground (consistent with the provisions of this chapter), whenever the Town has determined, in its sole discretion, that such removal, relocation, change or alteration is necessary to preserve public safety and welfare. Where removal is required, the Town will make a commercially reasonable effort to assist the provider in identifying and permitting an alternate location. The provider shall be responsible to the Town for any damages or penalties it may incur as a result of the provider's failure to remove or relocate communications facilities, poles, support structures or towers as required in this subsection.
[2] 
The Town retains the right and privilege to cut or move any communications facility, pole, support structure or tower located within the public ROW of the Town, as the Town may determine, in its sole discretion, to be necessary, appropriate or useful in response to any public emergency. If circumstances permit, the Town shall notify the provider and give the provider an opportunity to move its own facilities prior to cutting or removing the communications facility, pole, support structure or tower. In all cases the Town shall notify the provider after cutting or removing the communications facility, pole, support structure or tower as promptly as reasonably possible.
[3] 
A provider shall notify the Town of abandonment of any communications facility, pole, support structure or tower at the time the decision to abandon is made; however, in no case shall such notification be made later than 30 days prior to abandonment. Following receipt of such notice, the provider shall remove its communications facility, pole, support structure or tower at the provider's own expense, unless the Town determines, in its sole discretion, that the communications facility, pole, support structure or tower may be abandoned in place. The provider shall remain solely responsible and liable for all of its communications facilities, poles, support structures and towers until they are removed from the public ROW unless the Town agrees in writing to take ownership of the abandoned communications facilities, poles, support structures or towers. Upon the issuance of a permit, the provider shall provide a removal bond in the amount estimated for the removal of all of the communication facilities that are the subject of an application, such estimated amount to be determined by the Director of Planning and Development or the Code Enforcement Director, after consultation with the Engineer for the Town.
[4] 
If the provider fails to timely protect, support, temporarily or permanently disconnect, remove, relocate, change or alter any of its communications facilities, poles, support structures or towers or remove any of its abandoned communications facilities, poles, support structures or towers as required in this subsection, the Town or its contractor may do so and the provider shall pay all costs and expenses related to such work, including any delay damages or other damages the Town incurs arising from the delay.
B. 
Fees and charges.
(1)

Small wireless facility administration fee. In exchange for the privilege of nonexclusive occupancy of the public ROW, the provider shall pay the Town $270 per small wireless facility, annually, for as long as the ROW agreement is effective. The small cell wireless facility administration fee shall be due and payable within 30 days of issuance of the ROW permit.
(4) 
Other fees. The applicant or provider shall be subject to any other generally applicable fees of the Town or other government body, such as those required for electrical permits, building permits, or street opening permits, which the applicant or provider shall pay as required in the applicable laws, as well as attachment fees for the use of Town-owned poles, towers, support structures, ducts, conduits or other structures in the public ROW, as set forth in attachment agreements authorizing such use.
(5) 
No refund. Except as otherwise provided in a ROW agreement, the provider may remove its communications facilities, poles or towers from the public ROW at any time, upon not less than 30 days' prior written notice to the Town, and may cease paying to the Town any applicable recurring fees for such use, as of the date of actual removal of the facilities and complete restoration of the public ROW. In no event shall a provider be entitled to a refund of fees paid prior to removal of its communications facilities, poles or towers.
A. 
Permit required. Unless expressly authorized in this chapter or in writing by the Town, no person may construct, install or maintain in the public ROW any communications facilities, poles built for the primary purpose of supporting communications facilities, or towers, including the installation or co-location of communications facilities on existing poles, towers, support structures or other structures within the public ROW, without first receiving a permit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of an emergency, a provider or its duly authorized representative may work in the public ROW prior to obtaining a permit, provided that the provider shall attempt to contact the Town prior to commencing the work and shall apply for a permit as soon as reasonably possible, but not later than 12 hours after commencing the emergency work. For purposes of this subsection, an "emergency" means a circumstance in which immediate repair to damaged or malfunctioning facilities is necessary to restore lost service or prevent immediate harm to persons or property. A provider may maintain, repair, replace and make like-kind modifications to any small wireless facility that do not materially change the overall size, height and weight of the small wireless facility or exceed the structural capacity of the supporting structure without requiring additional applications, permits or other Town approval, other than any required electrical permit.
B. 
Permit application requirements. The application shall be made by the provider or its duly authorized representative and shall contain the following:
(1) 
The applicant's name, address, telephone number, and e-mail address, including emergency contact information for the applicant.

(7) 
For any new aboveground facilities or structures, accurate visual depictions or representations, if not included in the construction drawings.
(8) 
If new construction, a plan that would show how co-locations on the new pole, tower or support structure would be possible for other providers who may wish to deploy small-cell technology in the geographic area of the subject application.
C. 
Proprietary or confidential information in application. Applications are public records that may be made publicly available pursuant to the New York State Freedom of Information Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, applicant may designate portions of its application materials that it reasonably believes contain proprietary or confidential information as "proprietary" or "confidential" by clearly marking each portion of such materials accordingly, and the Town shall treat the information as proprietary and confidential, subject to the requirements of the New York State Freedom of Information Law and the Town's determination that the applicant's request for confidential or proprietary treatment of application materials is reasonable.
D. 
Ordinary maintenance and repair. A permit shall not be required for ordinary maintenance and repair. The provider or other person performing the ordinary maintenance and repair shall obtain any other permits required by applicable laws and shall notify the Town in writing at least 48 hours before performing the ordinary maintenance and repair.
E. 
Material changes. The Town may require payment of an additional permit application fee in the event the Town determines, in its sole discretion, that material changes to an application after submission amount to a new application and will materially increase the time and/or costs of the permit review process. Unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Town, any material changes to an application, as determined by the Town in its sole discretion, shall be considered a new application for purposes of the time limits set forth in § 192-2.3B(2), unless otherwise provided by applicable laws.
F. 
Application fees. Unless otherwise provided by applicable laws, all applications pursuant to this chapter shall be accompanied by the fees required under § 192-2.1B.
G. 
Effect of permit. A permit from the Town authorizes an applicant to undertake only the activities in the public ROW specified in the application and permit, and in accordance with this chapter and any general conditions included in the permit. A permit does not authorize attachment to or use of existing third-party-owned poles, towers, support structures or other structures in the public ROW; a permittee or provider must obtain all necessary approvals and pay all necessary fees from the owner of any pole, tower, support structure or other structure prior to any attachment or use. A permit does not create a property right or grant to the applicant to interfere with other existing uses of the public ROW.
H. 
Duration. Any permit for construction issued under this chapter shall be valid for a period of 90 days after issuance and can be extended for an additional 365 days upon written request of the applicant, at the sole consent of the Town.
I. 
An applicant may simultaneously submit up to five applications for communications facilities, or may file a single, consolidated application covering a batch of not more than 20 such communications facilities, provided that the proposed communications facilities are to be deployed on the same type of structure using similar equipment and within an adjacent, related geographic area of the Town. If the applicant files a consolidated application, the applicant shall pay the application fee calculated as though each communication facility were a separate application.
A. 
Permitted use. The following uses within the public ROW shall be permitted uses, subject to administrative review and issuance of a permit as set forth in this § 192-2.3.
