Section 22-39 Standards for satellite receiving dish antennae.
Satellite receiving dish antennae are allowed in all zones. In all A, R-1A, R-1B, R-1, R-2A, R-2, R-TH, R-CD and C-1A zones the following requirements will apply: (1) A satellite receiving dish antenna shall be erected only in a rear yard and the setback requirements will be the same as those required for an accessory building. "Rear yard" is defined as that portion of a lot which lies behind the rear wall of the principal structure located on the lot on the line which would be an extension of that rear wall to each side lot line. (2) The maximum height allowed is fifteen (15) feet, zero (0) inches measured from the ground and the maximum width allowed is twelve (12) feet, zero (0) inches. (3) There may not be more than one (1) satellite receiving dish antenna per residence, apartment complex, or condominium association. (4) The city building inspections department shall review the installation plans, which plans must be signed and sealed by a professional engineer registered in the state who shall certify that the satellite receiving dish antenna meets the structural, wind resistance and all other requirements of the standard building code as adopted by the city. Wind resistance is deemed to mean an ability to withstand winds up to one hundred twenty (120) miles per hour. The calculations of the engineer shall be submitted along with the plans. (5) Vegetation screening with a minimum height of five (5) feet (but subject to the height limitations for fences set forth elsewhere in the zoning chapter) shall be required between the object and residential properties which abut the rear yard, between the antenna and residential properties across such a front or side street, so as to screen the antenna from the view of persons on first floor levels of the nearby residential properties and from persons on those public streets. (6) After approval of the plans, a permit must be purchased from the building inspections department before installation can begin. (7) A property owner who has in place a nonconforming antenna at the effective date of the ordinance from which this section derives may continue to maintain the antenna in that configuration for five (5) years from the effective date of the ordinance from which this section derives, at which time the nonconforming antenna must be brought into compliance with this chapter or removed, but should the property be sold or transferred, the nonconforming use must be removed within thirty (30) days from the date of purchase or transfer or be made to conform to this chapter. (Code 1958, 24-6.32; Ord. of 2-25-85)
