Article I. General
18A.95.010 Purpose.

B. Establish objective standards for the placement of wireless service facilities.
C. Ensure that such standards allow competition and do not unreasonably discriminate among providers of functionally equivalent services.
D. Encourage the design of such wireless service facilities to be aesthetically and architecturally compatible with the surrounding built and natural environments where possible.
E. Encourage the collocation or attachment of wireless service facilities on existing support structures to help minimize the total number and impact of such structures throughout the community. [Ord. 726 § 2 (Exh. B), 2019.]
