The packet lists application details and supporting materials the City needs to review a Section 6409(a) eligible facilities request, including project plans, site photos, technical reports, and regulatory approvals. When the applicant does not own the property or support structure, or the site is outside the public right-of-way, the checklist requires a written property owner authorization permitting the application and described work; the owner’s original signature must be duly notarized. Submit the completed application and required materials by appointment and in person.
