Provides for uniform regulation of small wireless facility deployment in this State.
This bill creates uniform statewide rules for deploying small wireless facilities (like small cell towers) in New Jersey's rights-of-way. It sets height limits for poles (50 feet or 10% taller than existing poles), establishes reasonable application fees (up to $500 for up to 5 facilities), and prohibits local authorities from entering exclusive agreements with wireless providers. The bill also sets requirements for aesthetics, establishes processing timelines for applications (60-90 days), and limits rates and fees for collocation to ensure a balanced approach to wireless infrastructure deployment.
