Denison council reviews AT&T options for antennas: pole attachments or land lease
Summary
Council reviewed two commercial proposals from AT&T: attach antennas to light poles for $2,250/month (with a replacement clause if equipment causes damage) or a land lease for $2,000/month. Council asked staff to proceed with one of the options.
Council members reviewed two options presented for an AT&T agreement regarding placement of telecommunications equipment.
Option one would allow AT&T to attach an antenna to existing light poles with a stipulation that AT&T replace any poles if their equipment causes damage; that option included compensation of $2,250 per month. Option two would be a land lease arrangement for $2,000 per month.
Council indicated a preference to proceed with one of those two options; no formal vote or selection between the two alternatives was recorded in the meeting minutes. Further negotiation and staff work were implied as the next steps.
The council did not specify which city department would manage the lease or attachment oversight during the meeting, nor did the minutes record additional technical conditions beyond the pole‑replacement clause described.
