Agenda Item Text:
Approve Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) between Cochise County and Arizona Public Media for construction of a communication tower to be shared by both entities, with the cost the County of up to $250,000 effective immediately through November 14, 2042.
Background:
The County currently has an 80-foot self-supporting Tower located on the Site, and an engineering study jointly commissioned by AZPM at County’s request determined that the Tower is substantially over capacity. County and AZPM agree that, due to the substantial overload on the current Tower, structural modifications to the existing Tower would be impossible or prohibitively costly, and instead agree that it is in the best interest of both County and AZPM to construct/replace with a new tower (the “New Tower”) on the site currently occupied by a secondary County tower.
Department's Next Steps (if approved):
Initiate orders to remove old tower and build a new tower in its place.
Impact of NOT Approving/Alternatives:
County would be responsible for the full cost of building a new tower.
