The equipment building will be screened with several existing trees and two additional <br />spruce trees to be planted by the applicant <br />6. The equipment building will be constructed by the applicant and dedicated to the City <br />7. The water tower stem on which the antennas will be mounted is structurally capable of <br />handling the additional load. <br />8. The proposed plan is not anticipated to have any impact on the risks of contamination to <br />the City's water supply <br />9.
