Section 4. Chapter 4.23 of the Federal Way Revised Code is hereby amended to read as
follows:
Chapter 4.23
SMALL CELLWIRELESS DEPLOYMENT: SMALL CELLWIRELESS PERMITS
4.23.010 Overview•, Application and review process.
The city and applicant for a franchise and other permits associated with the deployment of small
wireless facilities face challenges in coordinating applicable legislative and administrative processes
under the Federal Communications Commission("FCC")regulations.A franchise for the use of the
city's right-of-way is a contract that requires approval by the City Council.Permits to exercise those
rights under a franchise and to install small wireless facilities on private property are considered in a
parallel, consolidated administrative process. FCC regulations provide safe harbor time periods as
well as completeness requirements that apply to all approvals relating to a small wireless facility
deployment. Time limitations governing the process are triggered by the applicant's submittal of
applications for the deployment. Accordingly, all parts of an application for a master permit to
deploy small wireless facilities must be considered in order to determine completeness.Applicants
are encouraged and expected to provide all related applications in one submittal.
(1)Application Process.The director is authorized to establish franchise and other application forms
to gather the information required by these ordinances from applicants and to determine the
completeness of the application process as provided herein.
(a)Franchise.The process typically begins with and depends upon approval of a franchise for the
use of the public right-of-way to deploy small wireless facilities if any portion of the applicant's
facilities are to be located in the right-of-way. The application for a franchise is designated as
Part A of the application. An applicant with a valid franchise for the deployment of small
wireless facilities in the City may proceed to apply for small wireless facilities permit and related
approvals(Parts B and C of the permittingprocess respectively).An applicant at its option may
utilize phased development. Because franchises are required by federal law to be competitively
neutral,the City has established a franchise format for use by all right-of-way users. The format
contains the basic requirements for the use of right-of-way. Consideration of the franchise
application is a legislative act of the City Council. Consideration by the City Council shall run
parallel with other necessary administrative approvals and approval or possession of a franchise
is a requirement for any small wireless facility deployment seeking to use the public right-of-
way.
(b) Small Wireless Permits. Part B of the application process requires specification of all small
Ordinance No. 19-863 Page 4 of 14
wireless facility components and their sites. Each component shall be described in detail as
provided in these ordinances.Any request for deviation that is known to the applicant or which,
through the exercise of reasonable diligence on the part of the applicant could be discovered,
whether minor or significant, from adopted city standards, shall be set forth in the application.
(c) Associated Permit(s). Part C of the application shall attach all associated permits such as
applications or checklists reQuired under Title 15 FWRC, Title 14 FWRC, and Chapter 19.145
FWRC. Applicants for deployment of small wireless facilities in city design districts or
underground areas shall provide appropriate concealment as provided in FWRC 19.256.050(6).
(d)Construction in the Right-of-Way. Small wireless facilities installedpursuant to an approved
� � PP
master permit(both a franchise and a small wireless permit)or a small wireless permit approved
separately for an existing franchisee may proceed to install the approved specific facilities. A
small wireless permit functions as a right-of-way use permit issued pursuant to Chapter 4.25
FWRC and shall meet the requirements and expire as provided therein.
(e) Later Discovered Deviations. Recognizing that each utility pole represents a unique
environment for the installation of small wireless facilities, if a deviation, whether minor or
significant, is required from the standards of the FWRC in order to install a small wireless
facility on any structure, and such deviation was not approved as part of the master permit or
small wireless permit process,an application shall be filed for the amendment of the initial small
wireless permit. Administrative review of the request for deviation shall be processed as
provided herein. Such an amended application shall be considered a new application and
completeness, review and all applicable time periods for review shall commence anew.
(f)Leases.A wireless service provider who wishes to attach to any utility pole or other structure
or building owned by the City shall include an application for a lease(s) or component of its
application. The Director is authorized to administer a lease review process, develop an
application form and approve leases in the form approved for general use by the City Council for
any utility pole or other structure in the right-of-way, including a new utility pole or structure.
The installation shall conform to the standards adopted in FWRC 19.256.050 or with an
approved minor deviation. Leases for the use of other public property, buildings, or facilities
including any park land or facility shall be submitted to the City Council for approval. Any
approval identified in the initial application process shall be considered by the City Council in
conjunction with its consideration of the franchise.Applications submitted at later dates shall be
considered by the director or the City Council as provided herein under a separate review
process.
(2)Completeness.Any and all parts of an application for the deployment of small wireless facilities
including but not limited to franchise, small wireless permits, and all associated permits shall be
submitted at one time in order that their completeness may be considered. An applicant seeking to
phase deployment of a small wireless facilities system may identify the intended phasing in the
franchise application process. Franchisees with a valid franchise to deploy small wireless facilities
mayapply for a small wirelesspermit for the deployment of initial or additional phases of a small

time period for permit processing.
(3) Safe Harbors. The FCC in 47 C.F.R. 1.6003 has established presumptively reasonable time
periods for review of facilities for the deployment of small wireless facilities. The City shall make
every reasonable effort consistent with any conflicting provisions of state or federal law, and the
preservation of the city's health,safety and aesthetic environment to comply with these time periods
to the fullest extent possible.
(1) In order to manage its right of way in a thoughtful manner that balances the need to

Ordinance No. 19-863 Page 6 of 14
The following additional information shall beprovided by all applicants for franchises seeking to
deploy small wireless facilities.Existing grantees who seek to utilize a small wireless deployment to
expand or implement an existing franchise shall provide the information as a part of a small wireless
permit application for small wireless deployment.
(1) Designation of Facilities.
The application shall provide specific locational information including GPS coordinates of all
facilities to the extent known and specify whether and where small wireless facilities are to be
located on existing utility poles including city-owned light standards (included in the definition of
utility pole), or will utilize replacement utility poles,new poles,towers, and/or other structures. To
the extent known,conduit and/or ground-mounted equipment necessary for and intended for use in
the deployment shall also be specified regardless of whether the additional facilities are to be
constructed by the applicant or leased from an infrastructure provider.Detailed schematics and visual
renderings of facilities sought to be approved by franchise or small cell permit shall be provided by
the applicant. Failure to provide sufficient detail may result in a later finding of a significant change
in the facility if significant elements of the facility were not shown on the originally approved
franchise exhibit.Failure to include significant elements may also result in the requirement that new
or undocumented elements complete the approval processes detailed in this Chapter and, as
applicable, Chapter 19.256 FWRC.
(2) RF Certification. The applicant shall submit a sworn affidavit signed by an RF Engineer with
knowledge of the proposed project affirming that the small wireless deployment will be compliant
with all FCC and other governmental regulations in connection with human exposure to radio
frequency emissions for every frequency at which the small wireless facility will operate.If facilities
necessary to the small cell deployment are to be provided by a third party, then the small wireless
deployment in the initial franchise or in a subsequent small wireless permit shall be conditioned on
an RF Certification by the third party and the requirement that the third party obtain a franchise. If
such facilities will emit RF emissions,this additional RF Certification shall address the cumulative
impact of the RF emissions and certify compliance with federal requirements. The applicant or
grantee shall immediately remove any facilities that exceed FCC RF Emissions requirements. A
modification of the facility by an Eligible Facilities Request requires a new RF certification.
