Board approves Verizon tower lease extension with $1,400 monthly rent starting 2029
Summary
Supervisors accepted a Verizon counteroffer extending the tower lease: $1,400 monthly beginning Sept. 1, 2029, with an initial five-year term and four successive five-year extension options and scheduled 10% increases on later extensions.
Crawford County supervisors voted to accept a Verizon lease extension for a county tower site. Staff reported Verizon’s counteroffer sets monthly rent at $1,400 beginning Sept. 1, 2029, for an initial five‑year term; the agreement then automatically extends for four additional five‑year terms with a 10% increase on the commencement of additional extension terms.
A staff summary of the lease terms was read to the board, including payment timing and extension language. A supervisor moved to accept the lease; the motion was seconded and approved by voice vote. The board authorized signature of the agreement and staff indicated they would retain copies for county records.
Supervisors did not record any dissent. The agreement binds the county to the described rent schedule and automatic renewal provisions unless the board later revises or declines to sign the final documents.
