Background/Discussion

Great Plains Communications is requesting the City dispose of an interest in real property by means of an easement. Exhibit A (attached) identifies the easement area that they can construct and maintain a telecommunications building on. The granting of this easement is conditioned upon the City approving the design and the appearance of the structure. Great Plains will be able to utilize unimproved 24th street right-of-way for ingress and egress to this parcel and the installations of transmission lines to the property so long as the use does not interfere with City utilities in the area as they currently exist or as they may be modified in the future.

The initial term of the easement will be 10 years and the consideration for the easements will $1,000.00 annually.  This is payable within 10 business days of the date the easement is granted and all subsequent anniversaries of said date.  Upon the expiration of the initial term, there will be automatic 5 year renewal terms unless 90 days prior to the expiration date, one of the parties serves the other party written notice of termination. 
Recommendation

Approval is recommended.
