How large a rooftop antenna or satellite dish may I put on my house or property?
San Carlos is subject to strong winds, due to its steep terrain and geographical location. The erection of antenna support structures in the city increases the chance of property damage and personal injury. Furthermore, the erection of antenna support structures may affect the aesthetic quality of city life by creating unattractive appurtenances to buildings, blocking or impairing views, and creating visional clutter.

No antenna support structure or television satellite dish antenna may be constructed or erected without first obtaining Architectural Review Committee approval and the necessary building permit. For specific questions, contact the San Carlos Planning Department at (650) 802-4263 or visit the San Carlos City website at http://www.cityofsancarlos.org and click on "municipal code."
