<br />CASSCOUN1Y <br />GOVERNMENT <br />..I.. <br /> <br />Office of the Sheriff <br /> <br />Paul D. Laney, Sheriff <br /> <br />RECEIVED <br /> <br />October 3,2008 <br /> <br />OCT 3 2008 <br /> <br />Scott Wagner, Portfolio Commissioner <br />Cass County Commission <br />Cass County Courthouse <br />Fargo, ND 58103 <br /> <br />CASS COUNTY COMMISSlON <br /> <br />RE: Tower Leases: Action Requested <br /> <br />Commissioner Wagner: <br /> <br />Our office continues to move forward with the final implementation of our updated regional interoperability project <br />with the acquisition of leases for existing tower space or leases for the erection of new tower structures. I am <br />enclosing two such leases for the erection of tower structures in the Cities of Page and Alice, North Dakota. Both <br />have been reviewed by the States Attorney. <br /> <br />They are identical except for the description of the location of the tower structures and the amount of lease payment <br />due each of the two landlords. <br /> <br />One lease is with the Alice Fire District for the erection and use of a 100' tower structure next to their fire hall for a <br />period of fifty years. They have requested a lease amount of$1200.00 per year to cover the use of their land, building <br />and electrical utilities for our radio system. Currently, they have no use for the tower structure, but there is a clause in <br />the lease that allows for a reduction in rent by mutual agreement for consideration of radio or other equipment <br />installed on the tower that is owned or which benefits the Alice Fire District. <br /> <br />The other lease is with the Page Rural Fire Protection District for the erection and use of a 100' tower structure and is <br />also for a fifty year period. This lease requires only that Cass County pay for the actual cost of electrical utilities used <br />by Cass County or $120.00 annually whichever is greater. The Fire District is not asking for any other rent as they <br />intend to use the tower structure for their own radio equipment in lieu of rent. <br /> <br />Sample Motion: <br /> <br />Move to authorize the chairman to sign the lease agreements with the Alice Fire District and the Page Rural <br />Fire Protection District for Tower Structures as part of the Public Safety Interoperability Communication System. <br /> <br /> <br />Cass County Sheriff <br />2119 St. S. <br />PO Box 488 <br />Fargo, ND 58107-0488 <br />Phone: 701-241-5800 <br />Fax: 701-241-5805 <br /> <br />Cass County Jail <br />450 34 St. S. <br />Fargo, ND 58103-2229 <br />Phone: 701-271-2900 <br />Fax: 701-271-2967 <br /> <br />Cass County Detention <br />10193 Ave. S. <br />PO Box 2806 <br />Fargo, ND 58108-2806 <br />Phone: 701-241-5845 <br />Fax: 701-241-5938 <br />
