Board authorized a lease with SB Towers 3 LLC for a Waverly Hall tower site supporting the county radio system; the county attorney said negotiations reduced annual escalation from 5% to 3% and included a non‑appropriation clause to protect the county.

County legal staff presented a negotiated lease with SB Towers 3 LLC for equipment space on a tower site in Waverly Hall, part of the county's new radio system. The county attorney said the vendor agreed to concessions, including reducing an annual escalation from 5% to 3% and including a non‑appropriation clause allowing termination if the board does not appropriate funds in the future.

A commissioner moved to approve the antenna site agreement and to authorize the E911/EMA director and other personnel to execute the lease; the board approved the motion unanimously. Commissioners noted this agreement completes the set of site agreements needed for the radio system rollout.
