St. Clair OKs first amendment to tower site lease with Sprint/T-Mobile
Summary
The board approved Bill 2025-52 authorizing the mayor to execute a first amendment to the PCS site lease (originally signed under Sprint, now T-Mobile) for water-tower tower space; staff said corrected math changed payments by roughly $300 per year.
The Board of Aldermen approved a first amendment to the PCS site lease for tower space on the city water tower, adopting Bill 2025-52 as Ordinance No. 2247.
Administrator Welty explained the lease had originally been executed under Sprint but the site and agreement are now managed by T-Mobile. During the vendor nd staff—ontract quality-control review, math errors in the lease were corrected; Welty said the amendment adjusts lease numbers by about $300 per year. "What you have before you now is the exact same document with the updated lease numbers," Welty told the board and recommended approval.
The board read the ordinance by title for first and second readings and moved to approve; the clerk announced Bill 2025-52 becomes Ordinance 2247.
The amendment is administrative in nature according to staff; no details of contract duration, specific rental amounts, or other financial terms beyond the approximate annual difference were provided in the meeting transcript. Staff recommended approval to finalize corrected lease terms under the current vendor arrangement.
Next steps: The mayor will execute the first amendment to the site lease as authorized by Ordinance 2247.
