tower; (2) Building plans for the tower, certified by a licensed structural engineer, verifying that the tower, [to ethe Y�,ith the initial antennas and ether ,]at full build out inclusive of all potential antennas and equipment, will have a hard survivability for sustained winds of one hundred the miles per hour; (3) A statement from the Federal Aviation Administration that the application has not been found to be a hazard to air navigation; [and] (4) A statement from the Federal Communications Commission that the application complies with the regulations of the Commission or a statement that no such compliance is necessary[...].; (5) Documentation demonstrating that the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 Section 106 review has been completed; (6) A report indicating whether the facility could be co -located elsewhere. The report shall include: WA statement from the applicant that diligent, but unsuccessful efforts to install or co -locate the applicant's telecommunication antennas on existing towers or feasible antenna support structures have been made; A map showing the sites that have been investigated with a detailed analysis on how those sites are inadequate and how the site selected is the least obtrusive Maps showing the coverage areas of existing towers within a two mile radius and the proposed tower; LWA letter from the nearby tower owners indicating the tower is not feasible for co -locating antennas; and U A statement that the wireless telecommunications provider commits to allow a minimum of two other wireless telecommunications providers to co -locate antennas on its proposed tower facilities wherever structurally and technically feasible. A statement providing the reasons for the location, design, and height of the proposed tower or antennas and the efforts made to meet with the adjacent landowners and/or community regarding the development; and A visual impact analysis, which shall include: Mitigation measures to minimize the visual impacts of the tower; n Before and after photo simulations from various locations and/or angles from which the public would typically view the site; and n A map depicting where the photos were taken. The visual impact analysis shall demonstrate that less intrusive sites are not available or do not provide the necessary communication coverage to provide the service. The director may request the submission of additional materials including but not limited to photo overlays scaled models renderings or field mock-ups,.to evaluate potential visual impacts. These materials should address appropriate coloration, blending, and stealth design (e.g., monopine monopalm) to harmonize the facility with the surrounding area."
