§ 58-291. Intention.  


Latest version.
  • In recognition of the Telecommunications Act of 1996, it is the intent of the town to allow communication providers the opportunity to locate towers and related facilities within its jurisdiction in order to provide an adequate level of service to its customers while protecting the health, safety and welfare of the citizens of the town and its extraterritorial jurisdiction. Wireless towers may be considered undesirable with other types of uses, most notably residential; therefore special regulations are necessary to ensure that any adverse affects to existing and future development are mitigated.
