The City of Lake Ozark added a new chapter into its municipal code that establishes a permit process for the placement, construction, or modification of wireless telecommunications facilities within the Lake of the Ozarks. The intent of this ordinance is to minimize the impact of wireless telecommunications facilities, establish a fair and efficient process for review and approval of applications, assure an integrated, comprehensive review of environmental impacts of such facilities, and protect the health, safety, and welfare of the Lake of the Ozarks. Six commission members were in favor of adopting the new chapter into its municipal code, one was opposed.
