• <br /> Ordinance 588 <br /> January 27, 1997 <br /> Page 6 <br /> b. The antenna would cause interference with other existing or planned <br /> equipment at the tower or building. <br /> c. Existing or approved towers and commercial buildings cannot reasonably <br /> accommodate the antenna at a height necessary for the proposed antenna to <br /> function. <br /> d. Existing or approved towers and commercial buildings are outside of the <br /> documented search area. <br /> e. The owners or lessors of existing or approved towers and commercial buildings <br /> are unwilling to allow co-location upon their facilities. <br /> f Government approval of sites outside of municipal boundaries is not <br /> forthcoming. <br /> Subd. 2. It is the City's intent to encourage co-locating providers to share accessory equipment <br /> building space whenever possible and practical so as to minimize the number of necessary <br /> accessory buildings and their impact upon the surrounding community. An applicant co- <br /> locating on another provider's tower shall incorporate its base transceiver station and all <br /> . other equipment into an existing accessory equipment building or suitable principal <br /> structure, except as otherwise provided in this Subd. 2. If this requirement cannot be met <br /> due to insufficient space within the existing accessory building, security issues, <br /> competition or compatibility concerns, or for other reasons, one of the following options, <br /> ranked in preferential order, shall be utilized: <br /> a. The existing accessory building shall be expanded to a size sufficient to house the <br /> co-locator's equipment. Such building expansion shall match the design and <br /> features of the existing accessory equipment building. The applicant shall obtain a <br /> building permit from the City prior to construction. <br /> b. A cement pad shall be constructed alongside and adjacent to the existing accessory <br /> equipment building upon which the co-locator's equipment shall be attached. The <br /> applicant shall obtain a building permit from the City prior to construction. <br /> c. A separate building shall be constructed that conforms to all the requirements set <br /> forth in Section 1124.05 of this Code. <br />
