That the Applicant has stated that there are no existing buildings or structures in the 1- mile search area of a sufficient height to accommodate the proposed equipment and provide a strong, seamless signal. 14. That City Code requires newly constructed towers to accommodate at least two additional users; the Applicant has stated that the Tower design would permit up to three additional users. 15.

That the proposed use will not be hazardous or disturbing to existing or future neighboring uses. 19. That the proposed use will be served adequately by essential public facilities and services. 20. That the proposed use will not create excessive additional requirements at public cost for public facilities and services and will not be detrimental to the economic welfare of the community. 21. That the proposed use will not involve equipment and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any persons, property, or the general welfare by reason of excessive production of traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare, or odors.
