A proposal for a new commercial wireless communication service tower <br /> shall not be approved unless the City finds that the <br /> telecommunications equipment planned for the proposed tower cannot <br /> be accommodated on an existing or approved tower, building or other <br /> structure within a one mile search radius (one half mile search radius <br /> for towers under 120 feet in height, one quarter mile search radius for <br /> towers under 80 feet in height) of the proposed tower due to one or <br /> more of the following reasons: <br /> <br />The planned equipment would exceed the structural <br />capacity of the existing or approved tower, building or <br />structure, as documented by a qualified and licensed <br />professional engineer, and the existing or approved tower <br />or structure cannot be modified, reinforced or replaced to <br />accommodate planned or equivalent equipment at a <br />reasonable cost. <br /> <br />The planned equipment would cause interference <br />materially impacting the usability of other existing or <br />planned equipment at the tower, building or structure as <br />documented by a qualified and licensed professional <br /> <br />\kelkriver\syskshrdoc\planningXscott\toweramd.doc <br /> <br /> <br />
