The wireless facility will not adversely affect the intent of the General Plan as cellular facilities that are designed to be compatible with the surrounding environment are consistent with the goals and objectives of the City's Land Use Element. Goal 1 promotes a balance of land uses to address community needs, which includes means of communication that will be served by the mono -pole. In addition, Goals 3 and 5 require preservation of neighborhood character and integrity as well as mitigation of development impacts. The mono -pole's location minimizes visual impact on the area and assists with the screening of the equipment. Further, Policy 2.2 encourages land uses that accommodate the City's needs for services. Enhancing a cell phone provider's coverage in the area adds to the services that are readily available for business owners, workers, and residents in the immediate vicinity. H.
