C. Use Conditions. Antennas and their supporting structures shall meet the
following requirements:

Purpose: The purpose of this section is to establish requirements for the location of
wireless communications towers and antennas. The goals of this ordinance are to: (1) protect
residential areas and land uses from potentially adverse impacts of towers and antennas; (2)
encourage the location of towers in nonresidential areas; (3) minimize the total number of
towers throughout the community; (4) strongly encourage the joint use of new and existing
tower sites as a primary option rather than construction of additional single-use towers; (5)
encourage users of tower and antennas to locate them, to the extent possible, in areas where the
adverse impact on the community is minimal; (6) encourage users of towers and antennas to
configure them in a way that minimizes the adverse visual impact of the towers and antennas
through careful design, siting, landscape ability of the providers of telecommunications services
to provide such services to the community quickly, effectively, and efficiently; and (9) avoid
potential damage to adjacent properties from tower failure through engineering and careful
siting of tower structures. In furtherance of these goals, City of Tulsa shall give due
consideration to the City of Tulsa's master plan, zoning map, existing land uses, and
environmentally sensitive areas in approving sites for the location of towers and antennas.

1. Exclusions. The following activities shall be exempt from these regulations:
a. Amateur radio operators;
b. Microwave reflectors and parabolic antennas;
c. Antennas and equipment completely located inside of buildings;
and

d. Minor modifications of existing wireless communications facilities and
attached wireless communications facilities, whether emergency or routine,
provided there is little or no change in the visual appearance. Minor
modifications are those modifications, including the addition of antennas, to
conforming wireless and attached wireless communications facilities that meet
the performance standards set forth in this document.

2. Definitions. As used in this ordinance, the following terms shall have the
meanings set forth below:

a. Antenna means any exterior transmitting or receiving device used in
communications to radiate or capture electromagnetic waves, digital signals,
analog signals, radio frequencies, wireless telecommunications signals or other
communication signals.

b. FAA means the Federal Aviation Administration.
c. FCC means the Federal Communications Commission.
d. Height means, when referring to a tower or other structure, the distance
measured from the finished grade of the parcel to the highest point on the tower
or other structure, including the base pad.

e. Preexisting towers and preexisting antennas means any tower or
antenna which lawfully existed on or before April 18, 1997, including permitted
towers or antennas that have not yet been constructed so long as such approval
is current and not expired.

f. Tower means any structure more than twenty (20) feet tall that is
designed and constructed primarily for the purpose of supporting one or more
antennas for telephone, radio and similar communication purposes, including
self-supporting lattice towers, guyed towers, or monopole towers.

The term includes radio and television transmission towers, microwave towers,
common-carrier towers, cellular telephone towers and the like. The term includes
the structure and any support thereto.

3. General Requirements for Antennas and Towers
a. Principal or Accessory Use. Towers may be considered either principal
or accessory uses. A different existing use on the same lot shall not preclude the
installation of a tower on such lot.

b. Towers and antennas shall meet the following requirements:
(1) Towers and antennas shall be designed to blend into the
surrounding environment through the use of color, including
galvanizing, or camouflaging architectural treatment, except in instances
where the color is dictated by federal or state authorities such as the
Federal Aviation Administration.

(2) Other than in Moderate Industrial or Heavy Industrial zoning
districts, communication towers shall be of a monopole design unless the
Board of Adjustment determines by special exception that an alternative
design would adequately blend into the surrounding environment, or that
the required antennas cannot be supported by a monopole.
(3) If an antenna is installed on a structure other than a tower, the
antenna and supporting electrical and mechanical equipment must be of
a color that is identical to, or closely compatible with, the color of the
supporting structure so as to make the antenna and related equipment as
visually unobtrusive as possible.

c. Not Essential Services. Towers and antennas shall be regulated and
permitted pursuant to this ordinance and shall not be regulated or permitted as
essential services, public utilities, or private utilities.

d. Tower Lighting. Towers shall not be illuminated by artificial means and
shall not display strobe lights unless such lighting is specifically required by the
Federal Aviation Administration or other federal or state authority for a
particular tower. When incorporated into the approved design of the tower, light
fixtures used to illuminate ballfields, parking lots, or similar areas may be
attached to the tower.

e. Signs and Advertising. The use of any portion of a tower for signs other
than warning or equipment information signs is prohibited.

f. Accessory Utility Buildings. All utility buildings and structures accessory
to a tower shall meet all the requirements of the underlying zoning district.
Exterior ground mounted equipment occupying more than 50 square feet, if
visible from ground level, shall be screened from view from property within 300
feet used for residential purposes.

g. The following setback requirements shall apply to all towers; provided,
however, that the Board of Adjustment may modify the requirements by special
exception;

(1) Towers must be set back a distance equal to at least one hundred
ten percent (110%) of the height of the tower from any adjoining lot line
of a residential, office or agricultural zoned lot, excluding expressway
rights of way zoned residential.

(2) Guys and accessory buildings must satisfy the minimum zoning
district setback requirements.
h. Security fencing. Towers shall be enclosed by security fencing not less
than six (6) feet in height or shall be equipped with an appropriate anti-climbing
device; provided, however, that the Board of Adjustment may modify or waive
such requirements by special exception.

4. Antennas and Towers Permitted by Administrative Approval. Antennas
or towers, except those approved or requiring approval by the Board of Adjustment (Section
1204. C. 5.), shall be permitted by right, provided a permit is obtained from the City prior to
construction and provided that the towers shall comply with the following standards.

a. When located in C, I, or SR zoning districts, provided that towers shall be
set back from an R District boundary line one-hundred ten percent (110%) of the
height of the tower measured at grade. The setback may be modified by special
exception by the Board of Adjustment pursuant to Section 1608 of this code; or,

b. When antennas are to be attached to a roof or wall of buildings in
commercial or industrial zones, or to office or multi-family buildings of two or
more stories, or to institutional buildings such as schools, churches and hospitals
with existing architectural elements more than thirty-five (35) feet tall, provided
that:

(1) An antenna does not extend more than twenty (20) feet above the
highest point of the building, or if located on an architectural feature such
as a steeple or bell tower does not protrude above that structure; provided,
however, that the Board of Adjustment may modify such requirements
by special exception; and

(2) The antennas comply with all applicable FCC and FAA
regulations; and

(3) The antennas comply with all applicable building codes.
c. When antennas are to be attached to an existing tower, and/ or city owned
buildings or structures,

d. When the tower is to be modified or reconstructed to accommodate the
collocation of antennas; and
(1) The tower is of the same type as the existing tower or is to be
constructed as a monopole, and

(2) The modification or reconstruction does not exceed thirty (30) feet
over the height of the existing tower and all requirements of Section
1204. C. are met.

5. Antenna and Towers Requiring Special Exceptions. If a tower or antenna
is not permitted pursuant to Section 1204. C. 4 of this chapter, a special exception shall be
required for the construction of a tower in all zoning districts.

a. Factors to be considered in granting a special exception. In addition to
any other requirements of this section, the following factors shall be considered
in the determination to grant or deny a special exception for an antenna or tower:

(1) Height of the proposed tower;
(2) Proximity of the tower to residential structures, residential district
boundaries and existing towers;

(3) Nature of uses on adjacent and nearby properties;
(4) Surrounding topography;
(5) Surrounding tree coverage and foliage;
(6) Design of the tower, with particular reference to design
characteristics that have the effect of reducing or eliminating visual
obtrusiveness;

(7) The total number and size of antennas proposed and the ability of
the proposed tower to accommodate collocation;

(8) Architectural design of utility buildings and accessory structures
to blend with the surrounding environment;

(9) Proposed ingress and egress;
(10) The need of the applicant for a communication tower within the
immediate geographic area to provide an acceptable level of
communications service to the area;

(11) The size of the tract and the most likely future development as
indicated by the Comprehensive Plan, planned infrastructure,
topography and other physical facts.

b. Collocation. Collocation of facilities should be encouraged wherever
practical by allowing reasonable extra height or tower diameter necessary to
support multiple antennas.

c. Landscaping. The following requirements shall govern the landscaping
surrounding towers for which a special exception is required; provided, however,
that the Board of Adjustment may modify or waive such requirements by special
exception.

(1) Tower facilities shall be landscaped with a continuously
maintained buffer of plant materials that effectively screens the view of
the tower compound from property within three hundred (300) feet used
for residential purposes. The standard buffer shall consist of a landscaped
strip at least four (4) feet wide outside the perimeter of the compound.

(2) 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 sited on large, wooded lots, natural growth around the property
perimeter may be sufficient buffer.

d. The findings of the Board of Adjustment as to each of these factors shall
be made on the record and contained in the written minutes of the meeting.

6. Removal of Abandoned Antennas and Towers. Any antenna or tower that
is not operated for a continuous period of twelve (12) months shall be considered abandoned,
and the owner of such antenna or tower shall remove the same within ninety (90) days of
receipt of notice from the City of Tulsa notifying the owner of such abandonment. Failure to
remove the abandoned antenna or tower within said ninety (90) days shall be grounds for the
City of Tulsa to remove the antenna or tower at the owner's expense. Any abandoned tower
that is not current in the structural safety inspection required by Tulsa's Building Code may be
subject to the nuisance abatement procedures set forth in Chapter 2 of Title 24 of these
ordinances.

7. Existing Towers and Antennas. Antennas and towers lawfully existing on or
before April 18, 1997, at the time this provision was adopted, shall be allowed to continue their
usage as they presently exist. Routine maintenance, including antenna replacement, shall be
permitted on such existing towers. New construction other than routine maintenance shall
require compliance with the requirements of this ordinance.
