§ 33-707. Personal wireless service facilities—Modifications and upgrades.

Except for small wireless facilities in the public right-of-way identified in section 33-704(k), the modification of a personal wireless service facility which was not specified in the original design/approval (including, as examples, an increase in height, the number of antennas/panels, an increase in mass and scale, etc.) may be considered equivalent to an application for a new personal wireless service facility, and will be subject to the requirements of this article. However, upgrades to existing facilities to incorporate new technology which, in the discretion of the director, do not in-crease the existing mass and scale, increase the height or visibility of the structures, or decrease the overall height of the facility, may be approved by the director, and/ or may be referred to the planning commission. Modifications and upgrades to small wireless facilities installed in the public right-of-way pursuant to section 33-704(k) shall be reviewed as described in said section and in any guidelines adopted pursuant to it.
