The language is indeed confusing. I checked with ASHRAE members who work on Appendix G. The short answer is that the correct interpretation is one cooling tower with one cell per chiller. The longer answer is that having one tower/one cell to serve multiple chillers would probably not work as the nozzles of an open cooling tower would not be able to operate at the reduced flow rates under those conditions.
