i (2) In the event that co-location is found to be not feasible, a written statement of the reasons for the infeasibility shall be submitted to the Board. The Board may retain a technical expert in the field of RF engineering to verify if co-location at the site is not feasible or is feasible given the design configuration most accommodating to co-location. The cost for such a technical expert will be at the expense of the applicant. The Board may deny a special permit to an applicant that has not demonstrated a good faith effort to provide for co-location. (3). If the applicant does intend to co-locate or to permit co-location, the Board shall request drawings and studies that show the ultimate appearance and operation of the personal wireless service facility at full build-out. (4) If the Board approves co-location for a personal wireless service facility site, the special permit shall indicate how many facilities of what type shall be permitted on that site. Facilities specified in the special permit approval shall require no further zoning approval. However, the addition of any facilities not specified in the approved special permit shall require a new special permit. Estimates of RFR emissions will be required for all facilities, including proposed and future facilities. K. Modifications. A modification of a personal wireless service facility will be considered equivalent to an application for a new personal wireless service facility and will require a special permit when the following events apply: (1) The applicant and/or co-applicant wants to alter the terms of the special permit by changing the personal wireless service facility in one or more of the following ways: a change in the number of facilities permitted on the site or a change in technology used for the personal wireless service facility. (2) The applicant and/or co-applicant wants to add any equipment or additional height not specified in the original design filing. L. Monitoring and maintenance. (1) After the personal wireless service facility is operational, the applicant shall submit, within 90 days of beginning operations, and at annual intervals from the date of issuance of the special permit, existing measurements of RFR from the personal wireless service facility. Such measurements shall be signed and certified by a RF engineer, stating that RFR measurements are accurate and meet FCC Guidelines as specified in Section H. of this bylaw.
