cannot be reinforced, modified, or replaced to accommodate planned <br />or equivalent equipment at a reasonable cost. <br /> <br />o <br /> <br />The planned equipment would cause interference materially impacting <br />the usability of other existing or planned equipment at the tower or <br />building as documented by a qualified professional and the <br />interference cannot be prevented at a reasonable cost. <br /> <br />o <br /> <br />Existing or approved towers and buildings within the search radius <br />cannot accommodate the planned equipment at a height necessary to <br />function reasonably as documented by a professional engineer. <br /> <br />In spite of its best efforts, within sixty (60) days, the applicant was <br />unable to obtain approval to co-locate on an existing or approved <br />tower or building. <br /> <br />Other reasons that make it impractical to locate the planned <br />telecommunications equipment upon an existing or approved tower or <br />building. <br /> <br /> b. Shared use of existing communication towers shall be preferred to the <br /> construction of a new tower. Any proposed commercial wireless <br /> telecommunication service tower shall be designed, structurally, electrically, <br /> and in all respects, to accommodate both the applicant's antennas and <br /> comparable antennas for at least two (2) additional users if the tower is one <br /> hundred (100) feet or more in height or for at least one (1) additional user if <br /> the tower is more than seventy-five (75) feet but less than one hundred (100) <br /> feet in height. <br /> <br />9.15.06 Tower Construction Requirements. All towers erected, constructed, or located <br />within the City, and all wiring therefor, shall comply with the requirements set forth of Chapter 8 <br />of this Code. <br /> <br />9.15.07 Tower and Antenna Design Requirements. Proposed or modified towers and <br />antennas shall meet the following design requirements: <br /> <br />ao <br /> <br />Towers and antennas shall be designed to blend into the surrounding <br />environment through the use of color and design, except in instances where <br />the color is dictated by federal or state authorities such as the Federal <br />Aviation Administration. <br /> <br />bo <br /> <br />Commercial wireless telecommunication service towers shall be of a <br />monopole design unless the City Council determines that an alternative <br />design is preferred in cases where structural or design considerations, <br />neighborhood compatibility, locational availability, or the number of <br />potential co-locations warrants this consideration. <br /> <br />9-128 <br /> <br /> <br />
