support structures.

A. As used in this section:

1. "Amateur radio" means the use of amateur radio and amateur

satellite radio frequencies and services by qualified and federally

authorized persons of any age who are interested in radio technique

without pecuniary interest;

2. "Antenna" means an array of wires, tubing, or the like used

for the transmission and reception of radio waves; and

3. "Antenna support structure" means a structure or framework

that is designed to elevate an antenna above the ground for the

purpose of increasing the effective communications range and

reliability of an amateur radio station. Amateur radio antenna

support structures are removable by design and therefore are a

removable structure for assessment purposes.

B. A municipal ordinance regulating amateur radio antenna or

amateur radio antenna support structures shall:

1. Comply with the requirements of 47 C.F.R., Section 97.15(b),

as amended from time to time;

2. Allow for the erection of an amateur radio antenna or an

amateur radio antenna support structure at a height and dimension

sufficient to reasonably accommodate amateur radio service

communications, and shall only constitute the minimum practicable

regulation necessary to accomplish the intent of this section; and

3. Require that, upon denial of an application for approval of

an amateur radio antenna or amateur radio antenna support structure,

the authority denying the application state the reasons for the

denial and on appeal bear the burden of proving that the actions of

the authority are consistent with this section.
