RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to Recommend that City Council Approve the
Proposed Antenna Rates and Authorize an Amendment to the 2013 Schedule of Rates
and Fees.
ISSUE
Staff is proposing to amend the 2013 Schedule of Rates and Fees to modify the rates for cellular
antenna equipment located on City water towers or other City property. Staff is seeking Utility
Commission recommendation to the City Council to approve the proposed amendment as outlined on
the attached excerpt.
BACKGROUND
As illustrated on the attached Antenna Lease Summary, the City currently holds six leases for cellular
antenna equipment located on City property. We are currently in the process of reviewing proposals
from both Verizon and AT &T for new equipment on the Connemara water tower.
The City currently has no formal pricing schedule for rent or other fees associated with cellular
antennas located on City property. As indicated in the attached survey results, most other cities have
adopted a pricing schedule to address charges for engineering, site restoration, annual rent, etc.
In order to be more consistent with other city's practices, and to be more effective in administering our
own antenna leases in the future, City staff is proposing the following changes be incorporated into the
2013 Schedule of Rates and Fees:
Cash deposit with application
• Covers plan review, construction inspections, site restoration, meetings, etc)
• $5,000 for modification of existing equipment
• $7,000 for new equipment
• Applicant will be responsible for all costs and amount will be reconciled at end of project

• $15,000 for a monopole (includes up to 150 square feet of ground space)

Other Charges

• $2,500 per antenna for each additional antenna beyond the first six
• Negotiated charges for other miscellaneous items (additional cables, satellite dishes, or other
equipment not specified herein)
SUMMARY

antenna rates and authorize an amendment to the 2013 Schedule of Rates and Fees.
