V. Area Wide Analysis/Proof of Need <br /> The applicant shall demonstrate by providing a coverage/ <br /> interference analysis and capacity analyses that the location of <br /> the antenna as proposed is necessary to meet the frequency reuse <br /> and spacing needs of the wireless telecommunication facilities <br /> and to provide adequate coverage and capacity: to areas which <br /> cannot be adequately served by locating the antennas in a less <br /> restrictive district (modified from St. Paul, ASO <br /> VI. proof of Non-Interference <br /> Each application for construction of a wireless telecommunication <br /> facility shall include either a preliminary or a certified <br /> statement that the construction of the tower, including reception <br /> and transmission functions, will not interfere with the radio, <br /> television, etc. , service enjoyed by adjacent residential and <br /> nonresidential properties .

Setbacks <br /> 11/ <br /> Comment: Setbacks are generally regulated by base zoning district. <br /> Cities often require 1) setback based on an engineered fall zone <br /> analysis, 2) setback equal to height of tower, or 3) with greater <br /> setback adjacent to sensitive uses (i . e. , residential, schools, <br /> churches, parks, etc. ) <br /> • <br /> ,Example: <br /> Where adjacent parcels are zoned or guided for commercial or <br /> industrial uses, setbacks equivalent to those established for the <br /> principal structure shall be provided. This standard shall also <br /> apply when adjacent to residentially zoned or guided land, that, <br /> due to topography, presence of wetlands or similar limitations, the <br /> land will not be actively developed for residential use . Setbacks <br /> equal to the height of the tower shall be established on sites that <br /> are adjacent to parcels developed or able to be developed for <br /> residential use .
