of the following conditions:

drawings to indicate the proposed diameter of the monopole at the top and base. The base shall be no
wider than 30" and the top no wider than 18 ". If a lighting rod is proposed, the applicable drawings should

health of the trees on the drawings. Provide a tree conservation plan with measures limiting impacts on
existing trees to remain.

the changes in the drawing with "clouding" or by other means will facilitate review and approval.
