RECOMMENDATION
The Administration recommends that the Mayor and Members of the City Commission approve

Agreement at the Miami Beach Convention Center.
BACKGROUNDlHISTORY
The City of Miami Beach (the "City"} is the owner of the Miami Beach Convention Center and its
related infrastructure, including a City-owned fiber optic networic. To enhance wireless
communications and coverage within the Convention Center, the City entered into a DAS Facility
Use Agreement with Crown Castle Fiber, LLC. ("Licensee"), a Delaware limited liability company
autharized to do business in Florida. The DAS Facility Use Agreement is for a term of nine (9)
years and three hundred and sixty-four(364)days commenced on January 27, 2017, and expiring
on January 25, 2027.
Under their current Agreement, Crown Castle Fiber, LLC. is licensed to install, operate, and
maintain a wireless communication system commonly refe�red to as a Distributed Antenna
System (DAS) to be made available to wireless carriers for the provision of telecommunications
services throughout the Convention Center property, thereby supporting the City's Primary
Purpose while facilitating modern infrastructure development through a neutral-host system that
minimizes visual impact and operational disruption.
In addition to the DAS Agreement, Crown Castle Fiber, LLC. also holds a separate Lease
Agreement with the Miami Beach Redevelopment Agency (RDA) for the Anchor Shops and
Garage, which is nearing its expiration. As a result of this upcoming expiration, Crown Castle
Fiber, LLC. submitted a formal Letter of Request on February 20, 2025, attached hereto as
Exhibit A, seeking the early termination of the current DAS Facility Use Agreement and the
execution of a new DAS Agreement. The intent is for the new Agreement to run concurrently with
the upcoming Agreement for the Anchor Shops and Garage. This request is intended to
1312 of 1750
streamline Crown Castle's internai aperations and renew their commitment to long-term
infrastructure investment within the City. It also reflects the Licensee's intention to remain in
compliance with the City's terms and maintain uninterrupted service at the Convention Center.
Below is a summary of the proposed new Use Agreement's essentials terms and conditions:
Licensor: City of Miami Beach
Licensee: Crown Castle Fibe�, LLC
Location: Miami Beach Convention Center, Miami Beach, FL
Licensed Area: Portions of the City's structures, including buildings, light pales, and fiber
networks, for the installation and operation of a Distributed Antenna
System (DAS).
Use Agreement Duration: 9 years and 364 days starting from October 31, 2025 and expiring
October 29, 2035
Use Fee: Initial Fee: $25,000 (due within 30 days of the effective date).
Recurring Fee: 25°/a of monthly gross receipts collected from wireless
carriers.
Carrier Fee: $25,000 per new Carrier Agreement (due within 30 days of
execution).
Real Estate Taxes: Any increase in real estate taxes due to the DAS installation must be
reimbursed to the City.
Security Deposit: No Security Deposit, however, a Performance Bond of $350,000 is
required and currently in place.
Permitted Use: Installation, operation, and maintenance of a small cell wireless
communication system (DAS) to be licensed to wireless carriers.
Utilities 8 Maintenance: Tenant is responsible for all installation, maintenance, and operation of
its equipment.
The City provides electrical power for DAS nodes up to 20 amps per node
at no cost. Any excess usage is charged to the Tenant.
Sublicenses: Crown Castle may sublicense to wireless carriers but must retain control
over the system.
ANALYSIS
The proposed DAS Facility Use Agreement Establishes a structured revenue-sharing model that
supports the City's long-term financial and technological goals. Under this agreement, Crown
Castle will remit 25% of the monthly gross receipts coNected from wireless carriers utilizing the
DAS network, providing the City with a consistent revenue stream. The Gross Rent Payments
for 2023 and 2024 were $121,827 and $123,705, respectively. This rental income for the City is
projected to continue a 2°/a - 3% increase each year. Additionally, the agreement requires a one-
time initial fee of $25,000, along with a $25,000 carrier fee per executed Carrier Agreement,
further enhancing the City's financial benefits. This represents an additional $100,000.00 one-
time, fee payment at execution of this new Agreement.
1313 of 1750
By leveraging wireless carrier participation, the DAS Faci{ity Use Agreement is expected to
generate substantial recurring revenue, with rent payments commencing immediately upon
execution. This structure ensures a scalable income model while facilitating the expansion of
wireless network coverage in a high-demand urban area.
The agreement also includes provisions for flexibility and property management, including a one-
year notice requirement for termination and the City's right to require equipment relocation, with
all associated costs covered by the Tenant. This ensures that the City maintains control over its
infrastructure while minimizing financial risks.
FINANCE AND ECOMONIC RESILIENCY COMMITTEE
This item was discussed at the June 4, 2025 Finance and Economic Resiliency Committee
(FERC) meeting. The Committee recommended in favor of approving a new Use Agreement
with Crown Castle Solutions LLC containing the terms and conditions outlined above.
FISCAL IMPACT STATEMENT
The proposed agreement is expected to generate ongoing revenue for the Ciry through a
combination of fixed fees and a revenue-sharing model based on 25% of Crown Castle's gross
receipts fram wireless carrier agreements. Additional income will result from a one-time initial
fee and career-specific fees. As rent is calculated as a percentage of gross receipts, total
revenues will vary based on carrier participation and usage over time. The lease structure
ensures that all installation, maintenance, and operational costs are fully covered by the Tenant,
allowing the City to benefit frnm enhanced telecommunications infrastructure without incurring
financial obligations.

described herein ("Unapproved Use"). Licensee's use of the Radio Space or Licensed Structure
for an Unapproved Use shall be considered a material default under this Agreement, and should
Licensee fail to cure said default in accordance with Section 12 herein, the City shall be entitled
to seek the remedies prescribed in Section 12 herein. Additionally, notwithstanding any other
terms of this Agreement, the City shall be entitled to seek immediate relief, whether at law or

contained in this Agreement, Licensee expressly recognizes that the Structures are used and are
to continue to be used by the City for the Primary Purpose, and that Attachments are and will
continue to be secondary and subordinate to the City's use of its Structures for its Primary
Purpose. Regardless of its duration, Licensee's use of the Radio Space and the Licensed
Structures shall not vest in Licensee any ownership rights in the Radio Space or Licensed
Structures. In addition to the Existing Agreements with Wireless Carriers, as identified in Schedule
2 hereto, the right to Attach herein granted shall at all times be subject to any pre-existing or on-

Fiber Network Standards
A. Initial Minimum Standards at Installation.
All fiber connectivity will be a continuous path utilizing fusion splices from the Hub Site location(s)
to the Node location(s). Below are the industry standard specifications for the Fiber Network,
Dedicated Fiber Network and Licensee's Fiber at installation:
1. All splices must be sealed in waterproof splice enclosures.
2. The maximum bi-directional average splice loss will not exceed 0.15 d6.
3. The cable attenuation must not exceed 0.30 dB/km when measured bi-directionally at a 1550
nm wavelength and 0.40 d6/km when measured bi-directionally at a 1310 nm wavelength.
4. The attenuation must not exceed 0.5 d6lcannector at all fiber termination locations.
5. The attenuation for the wavelength region from 1525 nm to 1575 nm must not exceed the
attenuation at 1550 nm by more than 0.05 d6/km.
6. The �ber strands need ta be single mode fiber and conform to a minimum SMF-28 fiber
specification.
7. Unless otherwise specified in the DAS Order, atl fiber will be standard single mode frbe�, SMF-
28 or better.
Optical Time Domain Reflectometer(OTDR)testing should be performed and the results provided
to Licensee as the basis for the minimum standards (Baseline Standard) for the Fiber Network
during the Term.
B. Operating Minimum Standards during Term. �� � �
The City and Licensee expect the Fiber Network, Dedicated Fiber �letwork and Licensee's Fiber
