also specify whether such towers are currently in operation and indicate the ability of the
         existing towers to accommodate additional co-location antennas.

(6) A report by a structural engineer licensed by the State of Wisconsin certifying the
         structural design and its ability to accommodate additional antennas.

(7) Evidence that the applicant has informed local airport owners and operators about any
         permit application for structures above two hundred (200) feet tall or within a three-mile
         radius of any existing public or private airport including all landing strips.

(8) Such other information as the Plan Commission or Zoning Administrator may reasonably
         require.

17.76 MAXIMUM HEIGHT.

Towers shall not exceed in height the distance from the nearest lot line, provided, however, that
if any tower is located within three (3) miles of the boundary line of an airport and landing strips,
said height shall not exceed the height limitations of the underlying district without prior proof of
written notification of the public hearing to the owner of the said airport or landing strip, and
prior written approval from the F.A.A. and Wisconsin Bureau of Aeronautics, if applicable. If
the applicant presents to the Plan Commission a report by a structural engineer licensed by the
State of Wisconsin certifying the fall-down radius of the proposed tower to be less than its
height, the allowed set back shall be that certified distance.

17.77 REQUIREMENTS.

No conditional use permit for the placement or construction of a tower shall be issued unless the
applicant presents to the Plan Commission credible evidence establishing to a reasonable degree
of certainty the following:

(1) Existing tower or structure is not available. This shall be proven by showing:

         (a) No existing tower or structure is located within the area in which the applicant's
                  equipment must be located;

         (b) No existing tower or structure located within the area in which the applicant's
                  equipment must be located is of sufficient height to meet the applicant's
                  requirements and the deficiency in height cannot be remedied at a reasonable cost;

         (c) No existing tower or structure within the area in which the applicant's equipment
                  must be located has sufficient strength to support the applicant's equipment and
                  the deficiency in structural strength cannot be remedied at a reasonable cost;

                                                                    102
