A Local Law to amend the administrative code of the city of New York, in relation to maintenance of records regarding the issuance of alteration permits for cellular telephone antennas and equipment.

 

Be it enacted by the Council as follows:

 

                     Section 1. Section 27-191 of the administrative code of the city of New York is hereby amended to read as follows:

§ 27-191  Approval of permit application.  All applications for permits and any accompanying plans and papers, including any amendments thereto, shall be examined promptly after their submission for compliance with the provisions of this code and other applicable laws and regulations. Except as otherwise provided in section 27-198 of this article, applications complying with the provisions of this code and other applicable laws and regulations shall be approved by the commissioner and the permit issued promptly and not later than forty calendar days after the submission thereof, and applications failing to comply with the requirements of this code and other applicable laws and regulations shall be rejected and written notice of rejection, stating the grounds of rejection, shall be given the applicant promptly and not later than forty calendar days after the submission thereof, except that on or before the fortieth day, the commissioner may on good cause shown, and upon notification to the applicant, extend such time for an additional twenty days. Whenever a permit application has been rejected and is thereafter revised and resubmitted to meet stated grounds of rejection, the revised application shall be approved if it meets the stated grounds of rejection, or shall be rejected if it fails to meet the stated grounds of rejection; and the permit shall be issued or written notice of rejection, stating the grounds of rejection, shall be given the applicant promptly and not later than twenty calendar days after the resubmission thereof.  The commissioner shall maintain a separate list of alteration permits that have been issued for the erection or placement of an antenna used to provide cellular telephone or similar service or any structure related to such service which shall, at a minimum, set forth the name, business address and business telephone number of the applicant, the date of the application, the date the permit was issued, the location for which the permit was issued and the number of permits issued for such purpose at the same location or within two hundred fifty feet of such location.

§2. This local law shall take effect thirty days after its enactment into law.
