Keyword in that statute quote is 'facilities'. That site being a prior wireless installation (nextel) should be fine. You're not building any new structure. Even the permit you've already got is nonsense. You don't need a permit to plug something into the wall, and it's not an occupied dwelling either. You're not modifying the structure in any way. Typical bureaucratic nonsense---GIVE US MONEY!
Wireless antennas fall under FCC authority -- point out the FCC sticker on the device. Tell them it's a RF emitter - not an antenna.
That statute is vague - It's too vague to have any legal standing. Technically it requires a permit for anything capable of transmitting or receiving any signal that is not a 3' or smaller dish, TV reception antenna, or ham radio. That makes all wifi routers fall within its scope, and as the FCC has said many times, states and municipalities have no jurisdiction over radio waves. That would make it also include all satellite internet dishes as well.
