How do I complete the wireless facility application?
Download the form, provide the applicant, property, facility, and certification details, and arrange the required pre-application consultation with Albany Planning Staff before submitting it.

Yes. The applicant certification includes a sworn statement with a notary block. Sign that statement before the notary, rather than signing it in advance.
