(a) Planned equipment would exceed the structural capacity of existing and of approved towers; (Ord. 99-114. Passed 4-16-01.)
(b) Planned equipment would cause RF interference with either existing or proposed equipment for the existing or the approved tower;
(c) Existing or approved towers do not have space on which to function in parity with similar equipment in the area;
(d) The fees and/or costs for shared use are unreasonable in comparison to the erection of a new tower.
