Bill > A01459

This bill enacts the "Wireless Broadband Eligible Facility Permitting Act" to provide for uniform municipal regulation of certain wireless facility modifications. The key provisions include: (1) exempting certain modifications of existing wireless facilities from the need for municipal zoning, land use, or other discretionary siting permits; (2) establishing timelines for municipalities to act on applications for wireless facilities and eligible facilities requests; and (3) allowing persons aggrieved by municipal actions inconsistent with the Act to file expedited legal challenges. The Act aims to facilitate the deployment of broadband and other advanced wireless services across New York State.
