					DOB Issues Standards for Cellular Antenna Installations 
 
						
							|  | In coordination with the City's 
							effort to further deploy 5G cellular antenna 
							technology designed to provide New Yorkers with 
							expanded high-speed Internet, the Department has 
							issued Technical Bulletin 2021-011 to clarify 
							antenna installation allowances in all zoning 
							districts as outlined in the Technical Policy 
							Procedure Notice 5 of 1998. Antennas and related equipment 
							may be placed on select building structures such as 
							a roof, chimney and smokestack or water tank. 
							Depending on placement, the antenna's height, square 
							footage allowed (including related equipment) and 
							how they are positioned must comply with the 
							Technical Bulletin. The submission of plans should 
							also document placement of existing antennas and 
							related equipment as well as proposed installations.
