         g.   Setbacks
      A new tower with a height of 100 feet or less shall comply with the minimum setback standards applicable to principal uses in the zoning district in which the tower is located, as measured from the base of the tower. For towers higher than 100 feet, the applicable minimum setbacks shall increase one foot for each foot the tower's height exceeds 100 feet.
         h.   Parking
      The lot on which a new tower is located shall contain one paved vehicular parking space unless provision of the parking space is determined to interfere with the use or enjoyment of adjoining property.

         j.   Perimeter Buffer
            A type B perimeter buffer (See Section 155.5203.F, Perimeter Buffers.) shall be provided around the perimeter of the tower facility (including guy anchor supports and ground-based equipment buildings), except that the required fence or wall is not required to be fully opaque.
         k.   Use of Associated Structures

            ii.   If high voltage is necessary for operation of the tower or any accessory structure, warning signs reading "HIGH VOLTAGE - DANGER" in lettering at least five inches high shall be permanently attached to the fence around the tower and the wall of any unfenced associated structure. A "HIGH VOLTAGE - DANGER" warning may be combined with a "NO TRESPASSING" warning on the same sign.
