ADMINISTRA TION RECOMMENDATION
Adopt the Resolution.
BACKGROUND
Sprint Spectrum L.P. is interested in entering into a non-exclusive agreement with the City of Miami
Beach to lease an area on the roof and radio tower of Fire Station 2, located at 2300 Pine Tree
Drive, for the placement of antennae and telecommunications equipment.
Sprint Spectrum L.P. commissioned a structural analysis and evaluation of the tower, completed by
G.M. Selby & Associates, Inc. in December 1997. The study concluded that with some minor
upgrades to the tower at 30 ft, 50 ft, and 67 ft, the tower could hold the proposed antennae and
cabling. Sprint Spectrum L.P. has agreed to pay for the upgrades prior to installing their equipment.
Sprint Spectrum L.P. has proposed the following terms:
· An initial five year term with four renewable terms of five years each,
· $18,000 annually to be paid to the City of Miami Beach,
· 15% increase per term,
· leased area to be approximately 4' x 7', located on the roof of Fire Station 2, at 2300 Pine
Tree Drive,
· Antennae to be located at approximately 70 ft on the existing tower.

long-tenn leases of City owned property for the purpose of installing telecommunications equipment
