Cell Towers and Wireless Communication Facilities

The placement and design of cell towers and other wireless communication facilities outside of the public right-of-way are regulated by Chapter 73F of the Tualatin Development Code.

• In general, construction of new facilities require approval of an Architectural Review application and may also require prior approval of a Conditional Use Permit application.
• Alterations or additions to existing facilities that do not increase structure height generally require approval of a Minor Architectural Review application.

Placement of wireless telecommunication facilities within the public right-of-way is regulated by the Tualatin Public Works Department (please call 503-691-3091 for more information).
