Body

Issue/Request:

An ordinance authorizing the First Amendment To Real Property and Tower Site Lease by and between the City of Lee’s Summit, Missouri, and T-Mobile Central, LLC adjusting equipment mounting locations for telecommunication equipment installed on the City’s water storage tower located at 1251 SE Ranson Road and authorizing the Mayor to enter into an agreement for the same.

 

Key Issues:

The City of Lee’s Summit owns a parcel of land at 1251 SE Ranson Road in the City of Lee’s Summit on which a water storage facility is located.

 

T-Mobile Central LLC (“T-Mobile”) and the City of Lee's Summit enter into a Site Lease Agreement in April of 2007.  That agreement is good for 5 years with 3 three automatic renewals.

 

This past year T-Mobile merged with Sprint and removed the Sprint Equipment from the site at 1251 SE Ranson Road.

 

T-Mobile wishes to move the location of its equipment while it is upgrading that equipment to 5G.  The current lease location is on the column of the tower and T-Mobile will be moving to a location at the top of the tower on the corral that was previously occupied by Sprint.

 

This request and process are in accordance with the lease language.

 

 Proposed City Council Motion:

FIRST MOTION: I move for a second reading of an ordinance authorizing the First Amendment To Real Property and Tower Site Lease by and between the City of Lee’s Summit, Missouri, and T-Mobile Central, LLC adjusting equipment mounting locations for telecommunication equipment installed on the City’s water storage tower located at 1251 SE Ranson Road and authorizing the Mayor to enter into an agreement for the same.
