Any notice of disapproval of a tower permit application must include a written report explaining in detail the reasons for disapproval. Any preliminary approval shall be subject to the protest provisions of section 28-533 of this Code, and, if no protest is timely filed thereunder, shall become a final approval on the business day next following the close of the protest period. The issuance of a written notice to the applicant shall be complete upon the deposit of the properly addressed notice in the United States Mail, first class postage paid.
