In 1996, the Hawai -, i County Council adopted Ordinance 96-160, which <br /> • defined and regulated telecommunication antennas and towers. Ordinance ► <br /> • No. 96-160 required the issuance of a Use Permit for telecommunication <br /> antennas and towers on lands zoned RS, RD, RM, and RCX, while permitting <br /> them in lands zoned RA, FA, A, IA, V, CN, CG, CV, MCX, ML, MG, O, and CDH. <br /> Prior to 2007, a Special Permit was required for telecommunication antennas <br /> and towers within the State Land Use Agricultural District. Act 171 however, <br /> permitted the construction and operation of wireless telecommunication <br /> antennas and towers within the State Land Use Agricultural District without <br /> this issuance of a Special Permit by the Planning Commission. <br /> Due to Act 171 removing the requirement for a Special Permit, the Hawai �i <br /> County Council adopted Ordinance No. 10-17 to require the issuance of a Use <br /> Permit by the Planning Commission for telecommunication antennas and <br /> • • towers on lands zoned RA, FA, A and IA by the County. In 2011, the Hawai -,i <br /> • County Council adopted Ordinance No. 11-25, requiring a Use Permit for <br /> telecommunication antennas and towers to be located within any O zoned <br /> district. This aimed to align with the intent of the Open-zoned district. <br />
