WHEREAS, based upon the application and the testimony
and evidence presented, the City Council of the City of
Evanston finds that, as to the special use requested for the
subject property:
A. The existing earth satellite station with the
proposed revision thereto is so designed and located
that the public health, safety and welfare will be
protected since it is in conformity with all the
regulations pertaining to location and design, except
for the height thereof the impact of which will be
ameliorated by the replacement of the existing eight
foot (8') diameter dish with a mesh dish of no more
than eight feet (8') in diameter;
B. The retention of the subject earth satellite station,
as modified by the instant proposal, will not cause
appreciable injury to the value of other property in

that said earth satellite station has on the
surrounding neighborhood;

primary purpose of the Zoning Ordinance or of the.:,
Zoning District or area for which it is proposed,-

uses of all types already located in the adjacent
