<br />approved facility will be subject to review under the terms of this Chapter. A change <br />in ownership of an approved CMRS facility may be exempted at the City's sole <br />discretion from additional public review if no substantial modifications to the facility <br />are proposed, the recording requirements in Section 17.42.100.A are met, and the <br />transferee provides a letter of credit as required hereunder, and the transferee has <br />assumed in writing and in a manner satisfactory to the City, any obligations and duties <br />of the assigning provider, and the City has in writing approved such assignment. <br />Additionally, the requirements in Section 17.42.100.C shall apply. <br /> <br />c. Abandonment or Discontinuance of Use. Upon abandonment of any antennae or <br />any CMRS facility, or discontinuance of use for a period of six months, the CMRS <br />Provider shall immediately remove all facilities and restore the site to substantially its <br />original condition. No approval shall be granted until the CMRS Provider has posted a <br />letter of credit to ensure removal and restoration of the site. The Provider shall be <br />responsible for all costs of removal and restoration, and the City may draw on the <br />Provider's letter of credit for such purpose. In the event a co-location site is no longer <br />used by the Provider that initially installed the co-location structure, such Provider <br />shall remain liable for removal and restoration of the site unless the City in writing has <br />approved an assignment of such obligations to other providers that continue to use the <br />facility . <br /> <br />D. Third-Party Expert Review. Due to the changing nature of telecommunications <br />technology and the specific technical knowledge required to review portions of <br />Provider applications, the City may have a need to have a technical third-party expert <br />review of all or part of a CMRS facility application. When the City determines that it <br />is reasonably necessary to have such a technical review, the expense of such review <br />will be paid by the Provider applicant. The applicant shall deposit with the City for <br />125 percent of the estimated cost of the review prior to the City's contracting for the <br />third party review. The selection of the third party will be at the discretion of the City. <br />An opportunity shall be given for the Provider to respond to the recommendations and <br />qualifications of the third-party expert. <br /> <br />1. The third-party expert review may address any of the following: <br /> <br />a. The accuracy and completeness of the submission; <br /> <br />b. The applicability of analysis techniques and methodologies; <br /> <br />c. The validity of conclusion reached; and, <br /> <br />d. Any other specific technical issues identified by the City. <br /> <br />2. The City may require changes to the application that are based on the review <br />and recommendation of the third-party expert reviewer. <br /> <br />E. Maintenance and Inspection. <br /> <br />15 <br />
