the Special Permit Granting Authority. A special permit for any wireless communication
<br /> service facility that exceeds height provisions of Section 7.5.2 shall be valid for a maximum of
<br /> fifteen years. At the end of the approved time period, the facility shall be removed by the
<br /> carrier or a new special permit shall be required.
<br /> All permitted and special permitted wireless communications facility carriers shall periodically
<br /> file with the Town, every five years (or sooner if specified in a special permit), on operational
<br /> aspects of the facility including: power consumption; power radiation; frequency transmission;
<br /> the number, location, and orientation of antennas; and types of services provided.
<br /> 15.7 REMOVAL REQUIREMENTS
<br /> Any wireless service facility that ceases to operate for a period of one year shall be removed.
<br /> Cease to operate is defined as not performing the normal functions associated with the
<br /> wireless service facility and its equipment on a continuous and ongoing basis for a period of
<br /> one year. At the time of removal, the facility site shall be remediated such that all wireless
<br /> communication facilities that have ceased to operate are removed. If all facilities on a tower
<br /> have ceased to operate, the tower (including the foundation) shall also be removed and the
<br /> site shall be revegetated by the owner. Existing trees shall only be removed if necessary to
<br /> complete the required removal. The applicant shall, as a condition of the special permit,
<br /> provide a financial surety or other form of financial guarantee acceptable to the SPGA, to
