wireless facility, may extend onto or over any private or public property outside the public right-of-way without the property owner's prior written consent and a recorded easement or other similar legal instrument. Section 12. DESIGN STANDARDS (a) General Design Standards. The standards in this Section 12(a) shall be applicable to all small wireless facilities in the public rights-of-way: (1) Stealth/Concealment. All small wireless facilities must be stealth to the maximum extent feasible with concealment elements, measures and techniques that mimic or blend with the underlying support structure, surrounding environment and adjacent uses. (2) Least Visible Equipment. The applicant must use the smallest and least visible antennas and accessory equipment possible to accomplish the service objectives. (3) Overall Height. No equipment associated with a small wireless facility may extend more than five feet above the support structure, plus any minimum separation between the antenna and other pole attachments required by applicable health and safety regulations. (4) Finishes. All exterior surfaces shall be painted, colored and/or wrapped in flat, non-reflective hues that match the underlying support structure or blend with the surrounding environment, minimizing visibility to the greatest extent feasible. All exterior surfaces on small wireless facilities shall be constructed from, or coated with, graffiti-resistant materials or sealant. All finishes shall be subject to the approval authority's prior approval. (5) Noise. All small wireless facilities must be compliant with all applicable noise regulations, which includes, without limitation, any noise regulations in the Municipal Code, including Chapter 9.04 (Noise Regulations) of the Municipal Code. Equipment likely to create noise, such as cooling fans, are strongly discouraged except when placed in an underground vault. The approval authority may require the applicant to incorporate appropriate noise-baffling materials and/or noise-mitigation strategies to avoid any ambient noise from equipment reasonably likely to exceed the applicable noise regulations. (6) Lights. All new or replacement street lights and street light fixtures must be aimed and shielded so that their illumination effects are directed downwards and confined within the public rights-of-way in a manner consistent with any other standards and specifications as identified or required by the approval authority. Small wireless facilities may not include exterior lights other than as may be required under Federal Aviation Administration, FCC or other applicable federal or state governmental regulations.
