Some of them mistakenly believe NEPA is required for all towers. From: TJ Trout Sent: Tuesday, December 5, 2017 11:35 AM To: af@afmug.com Subject: [AFMUG] Conditional-use permit for tower
I just purchased a 7ac price of land for my primary residence and the site is a great location for a tower site, but the local government is asking for a 30 page conditional use permit app with an environmental study and a public comment period plus approval by the board of supervisors... After that I have to obtain a building permit obviously. Any tips on filling out this application so I can receive an approval? Three of my competitors have a tower within 1 mile of this site and none of them have gone through the planning or conditional use permit nor have they received a building permit as far as I know. So I don't think they will be asking me to co locate. Any advice or tips? I guess this process can take as long as a year to be completed and I'm not sure what the cost will be but I'm sure an environmental impact study isn't cheap. Thanks, TJ
