Agenda Item Type:
Information Item
Attachments:
()
Description:
Information will be provided on a proposal recommended by district consultants to lease mobile phone antenna site on the MS/HS complex in exchange for a lump sum payment.
Currently, ISD 282 hosts an antenna site via a lease to a mobile phone provider in exchange for an annual sum payable over time. This lease arrangement has been in effect since 1996, and the most recent negotiation occurred in 2021. A third party aggregator has offered to acquire the rights to the current lease and the ability to provide future leases on the site in exchange for a lump sum and a percentage of any new leases the aggregator obtains. The school district would lose likely annual lease payments going forward but obtain a significant amount of up-front capital that can be used immediately, and reduce the risk of cancellations or costs of entering into new site leases. |
