SUMMARY AND BACKGROUND OF SUBJECT MATTER:

The Town of Erie Wireless Communication Facility (WCF) regulations in the UDC are not in full compliance with the current Federal regulations. The Town contracted with Kissinger & Fellman, P.C. to draft updated UDC regulations to meet the Federal requirements.  The proposed UDC Amendment includes a new Chapter 13 and specific amendments to the other chapters of the UDC to remove the old regulations and modify existing language to accommodate the new Chapter that is dedicated to Wireless Communication Facility regulations.

 

Staff and the Town attorney have worked closely with Kissinger & Fellman on the WCF regulations and supports the proposed UDC Amendments. Additionally, the draft of the UDC Amendment was supplied to industry representatives and minor modifications were made based on their valuable input.
