This matter is covered in "Antenna Zoning for the Radio Amateur,"
published by the ARRL. A quick start is to go to the FCC web page and
search for "towair". The checklist you remember has been supplemented and
is now truly an excellent piece of government work, serving the public.
Here's a paragraph I have prepared for submission to a city on Wednesday
(which is why I just happened to have it handy).
Separately, we have provided 10 copies of FAA Advisory Circular AC
70/7460-1J: ?Obstruction Marking and Lighting? (Source:
http://www.faa.gov/ATS/ATA/ai/index.html), and 10 copies of FAA Advisory
Circular AC 70/7460?2J: ?Proposed Construction or Alteration of Objects
that May Affect the Navigable Airspace.? See especially ?Obstruction
Marking and Lighting,? page A1-12-13, and A2-1. An additional Advisory
Circular 150/5345-43E ?Specification for Obstruction Lighting Equipment,?
may be found at http://ntl.bts.gov/data/5345-43e.pdf.
The actual Federal regulations may be found at 14 CFR Part 77.1 through
17.53.
