STAFF REPORT
To: Allison Williams, City Manager
From: Melissa Bethel, Community Development Director
Date: September 9, 2021
Proceeding Type: Public Hearing (Continued)
Subject: Fox Property Vacate Right of Way Ordinance
Legislative History:
•First Presentations: July 27, 2021, and August 24, 2021
•Second Presentation: September 14, 2021
•Action: Hear from Public and Motion
Overview
The purpose of this public hearing is for City Council to take public comment in consideration of
vacating a portion of the Right-of- Way (ROW) on Third Ave adjacent to the Lewis Elliot Addition
No. 2 plat.
On November 26, 2019, Moses Lake City Council adopted Ordinance 2939 vacating a portion of
the Right-of-Way dedicated for the development of Third Avenue adjacent to the Lewis Elliott
Addition No. 2 plat. That ordinance contained a scrivener’s error in the legal description. The error
included a 30’ strip of property that runs 290’ along the southeasterly boundary of said plat. This
area is not part of a dedicated right of way (ROW). The corrected legal description is in the attached
ordinance.
Council opened the Public Hearing, as advertised, on August 24, 2021. No testimony was received
and the hearing was continued to September 14.
Fiscal and Policy Implications
Per RCW 35.79.030, if the street has been part of a dedicated public right-of-way for more than
twenty-five years the owners of the property may be required to compensate the city for the full
appraised value of the property. Given that the applicant paid the city half of the appraised value
for 60’ of ROW when it was originally vacated, no additional compensation is owed to the city or
the applicant.
One-half of the revenue received by the city as compensation for the area vacated must be
dedicated to the acquisition, improvement, development, and related maintenance of public open
space or transportation capital projects within the city.

Summary
RCW 42.24 governs the process for audit and review of claims and payroll payments for the City. RCW 42.24.180 requires the review and approval of all payments at a regularly scheduled public meeting on at least a monthly basis. The State Budgeting, Accounting and Reporting Systems (BARS) Manual outlines the above format for approval by the City Council.
RCW 42.24.080 requires that all claims presented against the City by persons furnishing materials, rendering services, or performing labor must be certified by the appropriate official to ensure that the materials have been furnished, the services rendered, or the labor performed as described, and that the claims are just, due and unpaid obligations against the City. RCW 42.24.180 allows expedited processing of the payment of claims when certain conditions have been met. The statute allows the issuance of warrants or checks in payment of claims before the legislative body has acted to approve the claims when: (1) the appropriate officers have furnished official bonds; (2) the legislative body has adopted policies that implement effective internal control; (3) the legislative body has provided for review of the documentation supporting the claims within a month of issuance; and (4) that if claims are disapproved, they shall be recognized as receivables and diligently pursued. The City meets all these conditions. To comply with the requirements, Finance staff schedule payment of claims and payroll for semi-monthly Council approval on the Consent Agenda. The payments listed in the schedule cover all claims and payroll payments during the period prior to the date of the Council meeting. All payments made during this period were found to be valid claims against the City. Details are attached and any questions should be directed to the City Manager or Finance Director. The City’s internal controls include certification of the validity of all payments by the appropriate department prior to submission for payment. The Finance Director has delegated authority for the examination of vouchers and authorization of payments to the Finance, Accounts Payable, and Payroll staff. All payments are reviewed and validated. The Finance Division regularly reviews its processes to ensure appropriate internal controls are in place.

Legislative History:
•First Presentation: September 14, 2021
•Second Presentation:
•Action: Motion
Overview
The City is designing a new lift station that is be known as the Northshore Lift Station. Electrical
design is one area that the City does not have in-house expertise. Electrical and communications
design, specifications, bidding support, construction support, and final inspection support is
proposed to be conducted through on-call engineering services by RH2 Engineering.
Staff is requesting to execute a Task Authorization for the electrical panel and communications
design as well as the necessary programming for the Northshore Lift Station. Council
authorization is requested, as this task brings the amount above the administrative authorization
amount.
This project and task are already included in the 2021 budget. Design and programming services
will be conducted as a not to exceed fee of $69,665.

Date: September 1, 2021
Proceeding Type: Old Business
Subject: Photo Enforcement Amnesty Program Extension
Legislative History:
• First Presentation: September 14, 2021
• Second Presentation:
• Action: Motion
Overview
In June of 2020, the Washington State Judicial Ethics Advisory Board issued an opinion finding
that a City’s use of an employee to serve as a municipal court clerk creates an ethics violation
because there is no separation between the Judicial and Executive branches of government.
Finding a solution to this issue has been a slow process and requires the cooperation of the
District Court and Grant County. Currently, a draft Interlocal Agreement is being circulated and
the parties hope to have a resolution shortly which provides for the City’s use of a District Court
Clerk as a municipal court clerk.
In the interim, however, municipal court operations have been suspended since June, 2020. As
a result, the City has amassed a backlog of more than 530 municipal court citations, many of
which are photo enforcement violations. Grant County District Court has expressed a concern
with processing the backlog which has prompted the City to explore the opportunities for
reducing the backlog.
One option is to offer an amnesty program, similar to what other cities have done, which entails
offering violators a onetime opportunity to pay off tickets at a reduced rate. I would propose
that between June 1, 2020 through June 30, 2021, the City of Moses Lake offer violators an
opportunity to pay a reduced fine (50%) to decrease the number of court appearance requests
that have been backlogged during the court shutdown. At the same time, I would also
recommend sending each violator a new Declaration form giving them the opportunity to check
one of the three boxes, again with the intent of reducing the number of court appearances. This
reduction in fine amounts would not constitute a gifting of public funds as it would be offered
equally to every violator and would benefit the City by reducing the backlog of citations while
providing some revenue.
Upon conferring with our photo enforcement vendor, Redflex, we are advised that all that is
required is to notify them of the reduced fine amount so that they can make the adjustments.
Page 2 of 2
At the same time, we would also offer waiving any late charges in hopes of getting violators to
pay their overdue fines. The goal of offering these incentives would be to generate compliance.
After June 30, 2021, the MLPD will reassess the number of violators that have either paid the
reduced fine amount or checked one of the Declaration boxes and decide if further incentives
are needed. I am hopeful that with the reduction in fines and opportunity to complete a new
Declaration form, we will greatly reduce the number of violators requesting a court appearance
prior to the re-start of municipal court operations.
UPDATE
Due to the continued uncertain start date of Municipal Court, we felt that we needed an
additional extension to the Amnesty Program with an ending date of November 30, 2021.

STAFF REPORT
To: Allison Williams, City Manager
From: Dave Bren, Municipal Services Director
Date: September 9, 2021
Proceeding Type: Old Business
Subject: City Snow Plowing Policy Update
Legislative History:
First Presentation: September 14, 2021
Second Presentation:
Action: Discussion
Overview
Preparations are underway for the 2021‐2022 snow plowing and de‐icing season, which includes
a review and update of the City Snow Plowing Policy. The primary change to the policy is as
follows:
Combined Public Works and Parks Policy: The two policies have been combined and
coordinated into one policy. Chapter 1 provides for City Streets policy, as maintained by
the Public Works Department. Chapter 2 provides for Public Sidewalks and Public
Parking Lots, as maintained by the Parks Department.
The updated plan helps to coordinate the snow response by the City in phases as follows:
PHASE1 ICE/SNOW REVIEW (CONDITIONS+FORECAST): Public Works and Police
Department coordination, review, and determination to move to Phase2
and/or recommend Phase3
PHASE2 ARTERIALS: Public Works begins plowing arterial streets per plan.
PARKING LOTS: Parks Department begins plowing the public parking lots.
PUBLIC TRAILS & SIDEWALKS: Parks Department in communication with
Public Works to determine plowing of trails and sidewalks. Coordination is
important, as sidewalk plowing needs to happen after street plowing to avoid
berm pile rework on sidewalks.
PHASE3 RESIDENTIAL STREETS REVIEW (CONDITIONS+FORECAST): City Manager and
Municipal Services Director coordinate, review, and determination call out of
pre‐selected contractor for Bus Route and Residential Street plowing per plan.
Page 2 of 3
RESIDENTIAL STREETS (CONTRACTOR SUPPORT): Please find the City’s annual Request for Quotes
for “2021 Snowplowing Contract” attached, which is currently out for quotes. We expect to open
quotes for that work on September 22, 2021, and we will bring it forward for Council review on
September 28, 2021. The contract allows for the City to call out a residential snowplow contractor
for Bus Routes and Residential Streets, that are not typically plowed with the same effort as the
arterial streets.
Some items that are typically discussed with snow events:
1. Question: The City didn’t clear the berms in front of the driveways and mailboxes.
Response: The City’s policy requires the property owners to remove the berm for
their driveway access and mailbox. The additional cost to the City, from prior year’s
estimates would triple the cost of a snowfall event. The contractor would be required
to add special chutes on their motor graders and the additional time spent by the
contractor to adjust their equipment for each driveway and mailbox. Previous report
from 2020 was that this chute would cost the City an additional $75,000 per event.
2. Question: Are their any organizations that might volunteer to remove the snow
berms for the elderly?
Response: City is looking into service organizations for support.
3. Question: When will the City plow my street (residential)?
Response: All the residential streets will be plowed when the City calls in the
contractor to plow all of the residential streets. The contract divides the City into three
sections, so that the contractor can work on each of the three sections
simultaneously. The residential contract typically takes two to three days. The
determination of when to call in the residential snowplow contractor is based on road
conditions, depth of snowfall, and future weather forecast. The contractor can
typically prepare their equipment and get a crew lined up within 12 hours after the
call is made by the city. The weather does not always play fair, and sometime the
holidays make it difficult for the contractor to get a crew lined up.
4. Question: What materials does the City use to prevent ice?
Response: The City applies a liquid product consisting of MgCl. The concentration is
determined by the road temperatures and predicted snowfall.
5. Question: What materials does the City use when the roads are iced up?
Response: When the roads get iced up, then the City uses a solid granular product.
Page 3 of 3
Fiscal and Policy Implications
Determination of when to plow residential streets will typically run about $35,000 per snow event.

A follow up inspection was made on July 27, 2021. The nuisance was still present on the property. A

27, 2021 to Marlene L Johnson for violation of MLMC 8.14.030.U – Maintenance of Weeds and Grasses
over 12”. The notice allowed for fourteen (14) days to correct or appeal the violation. No appeal was
received.
Another follow up inspection was made on August 27, 2021. The nuisance was still present on the
property and there was no evidence of any effort to comply with the violation. A Notice of Hearing
(tonight’s hearing) was mailed regular and certified mail to Marlene L Johnson.

On August 27, 2021, the Code Enforcement Officer caused to be delivered to
Marlene L Johnson a notice of the intent of the City Council to consider adoption of a resolution such as this at its meeting of September 14, 2021. Such notice was in writing, in the English language and was delivered by certified mail and regular mail to the record owners of the subject property.

measured above the ground.
1. The above exception may be waived, and additional maintenance required by the
Code Enforcement Officer if he determines such action is necessary to protect the safety of persons or adjoining property.
2. All maintenance shall be done in a manner so that soil stability will not be disrupted or disturbed. Grass, weed, or vegetation control shall not include plowing, discing,
or scraping the soil to eliminate the grasses, weeds, or other vegetation unless a soil
stabilization plan, which will minimize blowing dust and maintain soil stability and which shall be approved by the city prior to any plowing, discing, or scraping, is implemented immediately.
Compliance shall be required as follows:
1. Property with no sidewalks/activity trail or residential dwelling on the property
shall be exempt.

control vegetation on the entire piece of property.
4. Hearing. On September 14, 2021, the Moses Lake City Council conducted a hearing to consider the allegations of the Code Enforcement Officer that the subject property contains a
public nuisance ordered corrected which remains uncorrected and that the record owner is
responsible for the costs of correcting and abating such violations if such corrections and abatement is accomplished by City forces or forces contracted by the City for such purpose. All interested persons were permitted to provide written or oral evidence relevant to the issue.

Legislative History:

•Action: Motion x 2
Overview
The City has been in the process of upgrading the software that operates our financial systems.
We have had a staggered implementation, with payroll going live at the first of 2021, and financials
following in mid-April. We are now almost ready to “go live” with our new utility billing system.
We have had some billing practices in regard to beginning and ending service that were necessary
because of the old software but are not industry standard. We are currently charging either full
month or half month base rates even if customers move in or out of a property in mid-month. We
are proposing to move all utilities to a per day rate. The attached ordinance makes the necessary
code changes.
Because of a switchover in utility billing software systems, the Moses Lake Municipal Code needs
modification to accommodate new billing rules.
Fiscal and Policy Implications
This could result in slightly lower utility fees because we often charged a full month to the customer
leaving a property, and a full month to the customer moving into a property mid-month. However,
it is the most equitable way to apply these charges, and most utilities we surveyed are using daily
pro-ration. One of the most common “complaint” calls that come into the utility billing office is
lack of pro-ration, so this could help ultimately ease call volume and avoid irritating our customers.
We are trying to time the effective date of the ordinance to match our potential “go-live” date on
the new utility billing software system, because our current system is not able to do the daily pro-
ration. Our target date is currently October 1, so we are making that the effective date of the
ordinance.

Subject: Pedestrian Areas Speed Limit Change Ordinance 2985
Legislative History:
• First Presentation: September 14, 2021
• Second Presentation:
• Action: Motion
Overview
Staff requests to establish 20 mph zones that are outside school zones established by RCW
46.61.440. The 20 mph signs shall include “when pedestrians are present” below the speed limit
sign.
Several street locations in the City of Moses Lake have a high rate of pedestrians crossing, including
students who cross at crosswalks on their routes to school. The locations that are beyond 300-feet
from a school do not fall under RCW 46.61.440; and therefore, the 20 mph zones are required to
be established “by statute; or, by an ordinance or regulation” in accordance with the Manual on
Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD).
On Friday, September 7, staff set up 20 mph signs for the new school route crossing on Nelson
Road nearby the new Groff Elementary School. When reviewing the current code for this 20 mph
zone, staff realized that the City of Moses Lake has adopted several 20 mph zones that are beyond
the 300 feet from school zones allowed by RCW 46.61.440. Therefore, staff has included existing
20 mph zones in the City of Moses Lake that are outside the 300-foot area allowed by RCW
46.61.440.
Fiscal and Policy Implications
Street Division will maintain speed limit signs at locations approved for 20 mph speed limits.

a request for Council Action. The zone will be enforceable upon passage of a proposed City ordinance.
On Friday September 3rd the Public Works sign crew prepared new signage and installed the signage on the very
same day on Nelson Road. Please accept the following report in recognition of their quick efforts to make Nelson
Road a safer route to school for Groff Elementary School as follows:

Subject: Blackdot/New Cingular/AT & T Revised Lease
Legislative History:
• First Presentation: September 14, 2021
• Second Presentation:
• Action: Motion
Overview
The City has a number of leases with telecommunications companies for wireless antennas on our
City water reservoirs and many are being upgraded to 5G facilities. In 2020, Fred Snoderly was
asked by several of these companies to do a review of the lease rates as there are federally
required equity measures that need to be employed with lease rates due to federally mandated
deployment of the 5G technology. Mr. Snoderly conducted this review in 2020 and prepared and
negotiated new leases, of which, this is the final remaining. The last contact for this lease was in
December 2020 and since that contact, the lease has been in legal review with Blackdot, agent for
New Cingular/AT & T. This lease is for facilities on the 900 Juniper reservoir. Mr. Snoderly utilized
FCS Group to pull lease rates from other jurisdictions in order to evaluate and prepare an updated
cost per antenna/ lease rates.
Fiscal and Policy Implications
This is a replacement lease, and although a lower initial lease rate, the 10% annual escalation will
bring it in line with current collections within two years.

FACILITIES LEASE FOR TELECOMMUNICATIONS FACILITIES
THIS LEASE (the “Lease or Agreement”) is entered into by and
between the City of Moses Lake ("City"), Washington, and New Cingular
Wireless PCS, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company having a mailing
address at 1025 Lenox Park Boulevard NE, 3rd Floor, Atlanta, GA 30319,
("Lessee"), and is effective as of September 30, 2020 (the “Effective Date”).
RECITALS
WHEREAS, the City and Lessee entered into a Tower Permit
Agreement dated October 10, 2003, a First Amendment dated February 9,
2012 and a Second Amendment dated February 24, 2015 (collectively
“Original Lease”), whereby City leased to Lessee certain space at the 902
Juniper Drive Water Tank location (“Site”); and
WHEREAS, the Lessee has requested the renegotiation of certain terms
and rental amounts and the parties mutually desire to continue Lessee’s
tenancy on the Site, and memorialize the continued tenancy pursuant to the
terms and conditions contained herein, this Agreement shall replace the
Original Lease;
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other
good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which
are hereby acknowledged, City and Lessee agree that the recitals set
forth above are incorporated herein as if set forth in their entirety and
further agree as follows:
Section 1. Location of Facilities. Lessee has installed and maintains wireless
telecommunications facilities on the 902 Juniper Drive Water Tank Site for
the purpose of providing a wireless telecommunications system. The legal
description of such Site is attached hereto as Exhibit “A” and incorporated
herein by this reference. The specific portion of the Site leased to Lessee (the
“Facility”) is described and depicted in Exhibit “A,” attached hereto and
incorporated herein by this reference.
Section 2. Extension of Term. The Term of the Agreement shall be extended
to provide that the Agreement has a new extension term of five (5) years
(“New Extension Term”) commencing on February 1, 2021.
Section 3. Authority Granted. Lessee is authorized to operate, maintain,
upgrade, repair and replace the equipment shelter, antennas, radios and
supporting improvements, and to operate, maintain and repair the tower
(collectively “Communications Equipment”) as currently shown on Exhibit
“C”, attached hereto and incorporated by this reference as fully as if set forth
herein, and to modify and/or add to such Communications Equipment in
accordance with this Section. No substantive additions to, or modifications
of, any of the Communications Equipment shall be allowed without first
having received prior authorization from the City, not to be unreasonably
withheld, delayed or conditioned; provided, however, that Lessee shall be
allowed to engage in routine maintenance and repair of its Communications
Equipment, to replace the same with substantially similar equipment, and/or
install additional Communications Equipment which is contained entirely
within the shelter located on the Facility, without the approval of the City. If,
at any time, Lessee wishes to expand the Communications Equipment in a
manner which requires the City’s consent herein (e.g., by adding additional
antennas or antenna arrays beyond that which is currently located on the
tower as of the Effective Date) or if Lessee desires to expand the ground
space comprising the Facility, Lessee must obtain written approval from the
City in accordance with this Section, and Lessee acknowledges that the City
may request additional rent in connection with such approval.
Section 4. Rights Granted. The City’s public use rights of the Site as a
public utility is paramount. Nothing contained within this Lease shall infringe
upon the City's right to use the Site upon which Lessee's equipment and
improvements are installed, provided however, that nothing herein shall be
interpreted to authorize access to or use of the Facility or Lessee’s
Communications Equipment by the City except as expressly provided for
herein. Further, nothing contained herein shall convey any real property right,
title, or interest in the Facility. This Lease merely authorizes Lessee to use
and occupy the Facility for the limited purposes stated herein. Finally, this
Lease shall not be deemed to constitute any warranty of title.
Section 5. Installation and Removal of Property. All Communications
Equipment installed by Lessee shall at all times remain the property of
Lessee and may be removed by Lessee at any time; provided, however,
Lessee shall remain responsible for any Rent (as defined below), taxes or
other sums due to the City until the Lease has been terminated or expires
consistent with Section 13. below. Lessee shall remove the Communications
Equipment within 120 days after the expiration or termination of the Lease,
unless Lessee has received written notice from the City prior to such removal
requesting that ownership of the Communications Equipment be transferred
to the City as provided in Section 27. below. In the event such a written
request is made by the City, but the parties are unable to come to a mutually
acceptable agreement for such transfer, Lessee's removal obligation in this
Section will not commence until Lessee has received written notice from the
City that the City no longer desires to have ownership of the
Communications Equipment transferred, and upon receipt of such written
notice, Lessee shall have 120 days from the latter of Lessee's receipt of such
notice or the date the Lease expires or is terminated within which to complete
its removal obligations. During installation and removal of its
Communications Equipment, Lessee shall comply with all reasonable noise
suppression requirements of the City, recognizing that the installation may be
adjacent to a residential area. Prior to the commencement of construction,
Lessee will obtain any approval required in Section 3. above, and shall obtain
appropriate permits from the City. Rent shall continue to accrue during any
such time period in which Lessee’s Communications Equipment remains on
the property and has not been transferred to the City as provided in Section
27.
Section 6. Access. Lessee shall give at least three (3) days written notice via
e-mail to the City prior to commencement of any maintenance or repair of its
Communications Equipment located upon the Facility, except as specified in
Section 7, to be e-mailed to citymanager@cityofml.com. Lessee
acknowledges that the Site is a secure site and access shall be coordinated by
calling the City’s Public Works Department business-hours telephone line
during regular business hours and by calls to the City’s Public Works
Department after-hours telephone line at all other times. The applicable
telephone numbers for the City’s Public Works Department are listed on
Exhibit D attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference. Multiple
failures of Lessee to comply with this provision may result in the City
locking access to the Site or may be considered a Default pursuant to Section
21. Lessee shall designate a primary and a secondary contact person to serve
as the points of contact for the City with regard to Communications
Equipment maintenance and access. The contact information for such
contacts is listed on Exhibit D. Lessee may designate a new primary and/or
secondary contact person by providing notice to the City pursuant to Section
34. Lessee shall communicate and provide notice to the City staff designated
on Exhibit D for all maintenance and access requirements. The City shall,
upon request of Lessee, provide a list of emergency telephone numbers
known to the City of the other tenants at the Site.
Section 7. Emergency Work. In the event of any emergency in which any of
Lessee's Communications Equipment located on the Site is in such a
condition as to immediately endanger the property, life, health, or safety of
any individual, Lessee shall immediately take the proper emergency
measures to cure or remedy the dangerous conditions of which Lessee is
notified or becomes aware, for the protection of property, life, health, or
safety of individuals, and may do so without first applying for and obtaining
any permit or other authorization as required by this Lease. However, this
shall not relieve Lessee from the requirement of notifying the City of the
emergency work and obtaining any permits necessary for this purpose.
Lessee shall notify the City by telephone by contacting the City’s Public
Works Department at the number listed on Exhibit D within a reasonable
time subsequent to learning of the emergency and shall apply for all required
permits not later than the fourth succeeding day during which the Moses
Lake is open for business.
Section 8. Dangerous Conditions, Authority for City to Abate.
A. Whenever Lessee’s construction, installation, or excavation of
the Communications Equipment authorized by this Lease has caused or
contributed to a condition that appears to substantially impair the lateral
support of the adjoining public property, or endangers the public, street
utilities, or the City-owned property, in the reasonable determination of the
licensed engineer employed by the City to make such determinations, the
City may direct Lessee, at Lessee's own expense, to take reasonable action to
remedy such condition to protect the public, adjacent public places, City-
owned property and utilities, to the extent such condition is caused or
contributed to by Lessee. Such action may include compliance within a
reasonable prescribed time.
B. In the event that Lessee fails or refuses to take the actions
directed by the City within a reasonable prescribed time after reasonably
satisfactory documentation has been provided to Lessee, or fails to fully
comply with such directions, or if emergency conditions exist which require
immediate action, the City may enter upon the Facility and take such actions
as are reasonably necessary to protect the public, utilities, public property, to
maintain the lateral support thereof, or actions regarded as necessary safety
precautions; and Lessee shall be liable to the City for the reasonable costs
actually incurred thereof to the extent such actions were required to remedy a
condition caused or contributed to by Lessee. City shall at all times take all
reasonable precautions to safeguard Lessee’s property in the event City enters
upon the Facility. The provisions of this Section shall survive the expiration,
revocation, or termination by other means of this Lease.
Section 9. Consideration.
A. The monthly rental fee under this Lease for the Initial Term (as
defined herein) shall be Three Thousand Four-Hundred Fifty and 00/100
Dollars ($3,450.00) per month (the “Rent”), payable within thirty (30) days
after the Effective Date. In the event of any overpayment of Rent prior to or
after the Effective Date, Tenant shall have the right to deduct from any future
Rent payments an amount equal to the overpayment amount. Commencing
on February 1, 2026, and on each successive term anniversary thereof, Rent
shall increase by ten percent (10%) per term over the then-current Rent. The
adjustment shall become effective on February 1st of each year. Except as
otherwise set forth above, Rent shall be paid each month on or before the last
day of the month.
B. Lessee acknowledges that late payment by Lessee of Rent or
other sums due under this Lease shall cause City to incur costs not
contemplated by this Lease, the exact amount of which would be extremely
difficult and impractical to ascertain. Therefore, in the event Lessee shall fail
to pay any installment of Rent or other sums due within five (5) days after
such sum is due, Lessee shall pay to City a late charge equal five percent
(5%) of the sum due. All delinquent sums payable by Lessee to City and not
paid within five (5) days after their due date shall, at City's option, bear
interest at the rate of twelve percent (12%) per annum, or the highest rate of
interest allowable by law, whichever is less. Interest on all delinquent
amounts shall be calculated from the expiration of the five (5) day cure
period set forth above to the date of payment. A Fifty Dollar ($50.00) charge
will be paid by Lessee to the City for each check returned "NSF" or otherwise
rejected by the City’s depositing institution for insufficient funds.
C. City's acceptance of less than the full amount of any payment due
from Lessee shall not be deemed an accord and satisfaction or compromise of
such payment unless City specifically consents in writing to payment of such
lesser sum as an accord and satisfaction or compromise of the amount. Any
portion that remains to be paid by Lessee shall be subject to the late charges
and interest provisions of Section 9. B.
D. As additional consideration for the rights and privileges granted
hereunder, Lessee agrees to pay, within thirty (30) days of the Effective Date
of this Lease, a one-time grant fee of Two Thousand Dollars and No/100
($2,000.00) to defray the City's legal and administrative costs and expenses
associated with negotiating and approving this Lease, as consideration for
entering into this Lease and as consideration for the right of first refusal (see
Section 15.).
E. The City hereby agrees to provide to Lessee (i) a completed,
current version of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, or equivalent; (ii)
complete and fully executed state and local withholding forms if required;
and (iii) other documentation to verify the City’s right to receive Rent as is
reasonably requested by Lessee (“Rental Documentation”). Further, the City
will execute a Memorandum of Lease as described in Section 38.
Section 10. Licenses, Fees, and Taxes.
A. Within a reasonable amount of time after the Effective Date of
the Lease, Lessee shall obtain any applicable business license from the City
pursuant to MLMC Chapter 5.04. Lessee shall maintain any applicable
business license throughout the term of the Lease. In addition to the
consideration set forth in Section 9. , Lessee shall pay before they become
delinquent all taxes on all personal property and improvements owned or
placed by Lessee on the Facility; shall pay all license fees and public utility
charges related to the conduct of Lessee's business on the Facility; shall pay
for all permits, licenses and zoning approvals relating to the conduct of
business on the Facilities by Lessee; and shall pay any other tax, including
utility taxes and business license fees imposed by the City, if applicable.
B. In addition to the Rent, Lessee shall pay annually in advance to
the City the then current, applicable leasehold excise tax, unless Lessee is
centrally assessed by the State of Washington and provides documentation of
its central assessment, which evidence shall then be attached to this
Agreement as Exhibit “E”. If Lessee is centrally assessed by the State of
Washington and Lessee provides evidence of its central assessment to City,
then for any and all periods that Lessee reports the property as operating
property, as defined in RCW 84.12.200, Lessee will not be required to pay
leasehold excise tax to City. Should the City collect from Lessee and pay to
the Department of Revenue leasehold excise tax which is subsequently
determined to be a duplicate payment or over-payment of tax by Lessee,
Lessee shall not have any claim against the City, but shall look directly to the
Department of Revenue for reimbursement. City shall reasonably cooperate,
at no expense or liability to City, to the extent the Department of Revenue
requires any information or action from City to resolve Lessee’s claim for
reimbursement.
Section 11. Intentionally Omitted.
Section 12. Utilities.
A. Lessee shall obtain its own utility services, either by agreement
between Lessee and existing user or users, or by obtaining a separate meter
for electricity or other utilities to be placed in Lessee's name.
B. The City agrees to grant Lessee an access and utility easement
(“Access and Utility Easement”) for ingress and egress, seven (7) days a
week, twenty-four (24) hours a day, on foot or motor vehicle, specifically
including trucks, and for the installation and maintenance of utility wires,
cables, conduits and pipes under and upon the Site from the nearest public
right-of-way to serve the Facility and Lessee's Communications Equipment.
Provided however that this easement does not grant the right for Lessee or
any third party to construct poles within the easement. The legal description
and depiction of the portion of the Site affected by the Access and Utility
Easement is attached hereto as “Exhibit B” and incorporated herein by this
reference (the “Access and Utility Easement Area”). The Access and Utility
Easement shall solely be used for access and utilities, Lessee is not permitted
to construct any facilities or equipment (other than utilities) in the Access and
Utility Easement Area.
Section 13. Term and Termination.
A. The rights granted under this Lease shall have an initial adjusted
term commencing on February 1, 2021 and expiring on January 31, 2026 (the
“Initial Term”). This Lease shall automatically be extended for two (2), (5)
years (the “Renewal Term”; the Initial Term and Renewal Term, collectively,
the “Term”), unless Tenant notifies City in writing of Tenant’s intention not
to renew the Agreement at least sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the
Initial Term or the then current Renewal Term.
B. Lessee may terminate this Lease as follows: (i) upon six (6)
months written notice to Lessor if Lessee reasonably determines that the use
of the Facility is obsolete or unnecessary; or (ii) upon written notice to Lessor
in the event of a Default (as defined in Section 21. below) by Lessor.
C. Lessor may terminate this Lease in accordance with Section 21
below upon written notice to Lessee in the event of a Default by Lessee.
Section 14. Colocation and Joint Users.
A. Lessee may sublet its Communications Equipment, space within
the Facility, and use of the Access and Utility Easement in Lessee’s sole
discretion, without approval or consent from the City; provided, however that
such subtenant (“Subtenant”) shall enter into a separate agreement with the
City for the usage of any ground space, which such agreement shall be on
commercially reasonable terms and shall not contain any requirement that
rent or other fees (excluding permit fees), however characterized, be paid by
such Subtenant unless the ground space being used by such Subtenant
exceeds or is outside of the area comprising the Facility.
B. Lessee shall pay City thirty percent (30%) of any rents, monies or
other consideration actually received by Lessee under and pursuant to the
terms and provisions of any new sublease, license or other collocation
agreement for the use of any portion of the Facility or Communications
Equipment entered into by and between Lessee and a Subtenant subsequent
to the Effective Date (any such amounts payable to the City, the “Subtenant
Fee”). Lessee shall provide notice to City of any Subtenant and the terms and
conditions of this Agreement shall be binding on any Subtenant. The
Subtenant Fee may be paid monthly or annually, provided it is consistent
with how the Lessee collects rent, monies or other consideration from the
applicable Subtenant.
C. The initial payment of the Subtenant Fee shall be due within
thirty (30) days of actual receipt by Lessee of the first payment of rent paid
by the Subtenant. In the event a sublease or license with a Subtenant expires
or terminates, Lessee’s obligation to pay the Subtenant Fee for such sublease
or license shall terminate upon the date of such expiration or termination or
the removal of such Subtenant’s equipment, whichever is later.
D. City hereby acknowledges and agrees that Lessee has the sole
and absolute right to enter into, renew, extend, terminate, amend, restate, or
otherwise modify (including, without limitation, reducing rent or allowing the
early termination of) any future or existing subleases, licenses or collocation
agreements for occupancy on the Communications Equipment, all on such
terms as Lessee deems advisable, in Lessee’s sole and absolute discretion,
and consistent with the requirements herein. Lessee shall require that any
Subtenant that terminates its tenancy shall be required to remove its
equipment consistent with the requirements in Section 5. , and that such
Subtenant shall continue to be obligated to pay rent to Lessee during any time
in which its equipment remains on the Site, regardless of whether any lease,
license, or agreement has terminated or expired. The Lessee will act in good
faith when negotiating the terms and provisions, including rental rate, of any
new sublease, license or other collocation agreement for the use of any
portion of the Facility or Communications Equipment.
Section 15. Right of First Refusal. If at any time after the Effective Date,
the City receives and intends to accept an offer or letter of intent from any
person or entity that is in the business of owning, managing or operating
communications facilities or is in the business of acquiring landlord interests
in agreements relating to communications facilities, to purchase fee title, an
easement, a lease, a license, or any other interest in the Site or Facility or any
portion thereof or to acquire any interest in this Lease, or an option for any of
the foregoing, the City shall provide written notice to Lessee of said offer
(“Purchase Notice”). The Purchase Notice shall include the prospective
buyer’s name, the purchase price being offered, any other consideration being
offered, the other terms and conditions of the offer, a description of the
portion of and interest in the Site, Facility and/or this Lease which will be
conveyed in the proposed transaction, and a copy of any letters of intent or
form agreements presented to City by the third party offeror. Lessee shall
have the right of first refusal to meet any bona fide offer of sale or transfer on
the terms and conditions of such offer or by effectuating a transaction with
substantially equivalent financial terms. If Lessee fails to provide written
notice to City that Lessee intends to meet such bona fide offer within forty-
five (45) days after receipt of the Purchase Notice, City may proceed with the
proposed transaction in accordance with the terms and conditions of such
third party offer, in which event this Lease shall continue in full force and
effect and the right of first refusal described in this Section shall survive any
such conveyance to a third party. If Lessee provides City with notice of
Lessee’s intention to meet the third party offer within forty-five (45) days
after receipt of the Purchase Notice, then if the Purchase Notice describes a
transaction involving greater space than the Site or Facility, Lessee may elect
to proceed with a transaction covering only the Site or Facility and the
purchase price shall be pro-rated on a square footage basis. Further, City
acknowledges and agrees that if Lessee exercises this right of first refusal,
Lessee may require a reasonable period of time, but no more than sixty (60)
days, to conduct due diligence and effectuate the closing of a transaction on
substantially equivalent financial terms of the third-party offer. Lessee may
elect to amend this Lease to effectuate the proposed financial terms of the
third party offer rather than acquiring fee simple title or an easement interest
in the Site or Facility. For purposes of this Section, any transfer, bequest or
devise of City's interest in the Site or Facility to a third party not in the
business of owning, managing or operating communications facilities or in
the business of acquiring landlord interests in agreements relating to
communications facilities shall not be considered a sale for which Lessee has
any right of first refusal.
Section 16. Business Purpose. Lessee shall conduct and carry on upon the
Site and Facility only the business for which the Site and Facility is leased,
and shall not use the Site and Facility for any additional or illegal purposes.
Section 17. Signs. Expressly excluding any and all signs required by
applicable law or regulations, any other signs or symbols placed on the
Facility at the Site or on the Communications Equipment by Lessee shall be
subject to the prior reasonable approval of the City. In the event Lessee shall
place signs or symbols which require the City’s approval herein on the
Facility where they are visible from the street and not acceptable to the City,
the City may demand the immediate removal of such signs or symbols, and
the refusal of Lessee to comply with such demand within a period of five (5)
business days will constitute a breach of this Lease, thereby entitling the City
to exercise any available legal remedy and to remove the sign or symbol. Any
signs placed upon the Facility shall be so placed upon the understanding and
agreement that Lessee will remove the same at the termination of this Lease
and repair any resulting damage or injury to the Facility or the Site. If such
signs are not so removed upon termination by Lessee, then the City may have
the same removed at Lessee's expense. The City hereby acknowledges and
agrees that all signs and symbols placed on the Facility as of the date the City
executes this Lease will be deemed approved by the City.
Section 18. Compliance with All Applicable Laws. Lessee agrees to
comply with all Federal and State laws, ordinances, rules and regulations of
the public authorities within the relevant jurisdiction in performing any and
all work upon the Facility. Lessee further agrees to save and hold the City
harmless from damage, loss or expense arising out of the said work, unless
caused by the City's sole negligence or willful misconduct, and to remove all
liens or encumbrances arising as a result of said work. It is understood and
agreed that Lessee’s ability to use the Facility is contingent upon its obtaining
and maintaining all certificates, permits, and other approvals that may be
required by any federal, state or local authorities. The City shall cooperate
with Lessee, at no cost to the City, in Lessee’s efforts to obtain and/or
maintain such approvals and shall take no action which would adversely
affect the status of the Facility or Access and Utility Easement with respect to
the permitted use thereof by Lessee.
Section 19. Interference.
A. Lessee acknowledges that the City has previously entered into
leases with other tenants for their equipment and antenna facilities for the
purposes of transmitting and receiving telecommunication signals from the
Site. The City shall not in any way be responsible or liable for any
interference with Lessee's use of the Facility caused by the use and operation
of any equipment by such other tenants, even if caused by new technology,
but upon request the City shall enforce any non-interference provisions
contained in any leases with other tenants. In the event that the City enters
into additional leases, or amends existing leases to extend the term thereof,
with other tenants for the purposes of allowing such other tenants to transmit
and receive telecommunication signals from the Site, the City shall assure
that said leases contain provisions prohibiting such other tenants from
causing interference to the then-existing equipment of existing tenants and
otherwise assuring the continued quiet enjoyment of existing tenants.
Provided, however, that the City's failure to include such language in such
subsequent leases shall not constitute a material breach of this Lease.
B. Lessee shall reasonably cooperate with all current and future
users of the Site to identify the causes of and work towards the resolution of
any electronic or radio frequency interference problems. In addition, Lessee
agrees, within forty-eight hours after receiving written notice thereof, to
eliminate any material, adverse radio or television interference to City- or
government operated equipment caused by Lessee's Communications
Equipment which was installed after the installation of such City or
government operated equipment at Lessee's own expense and without
imposition of extra filters on City-operated equipment.
C. In the event that any other tenant's or the City's activities interfere
with Lessee's use of the Facility, and Lessee cannot resolve this interference
with the other tenants, Lessee may, upon ninety (90) days’ notice to City,
terminate this Lease and restore the Facility to its original condition,
reasonable wear and tear accepted. In such event, Lessee shall be entitled to a
pro rata refund of all pre-paid rent.
Section 20. Intentionally Omitted.
Section 21. Default and Termination.
A. It is a "Default" if (i) either party fails to comply with this Lease
and does not remedy the failure within thirty (30) days after written notice by
the other party or, if the failure cannot reasonably be remedied in such time,
if the failing party does not commence a remedy within the allotted thirty
(30) days and diligently pursue the cure to completion within ninety (90)
days after the initial written notice. The cure periods set forth in this Section
21. do not extend the period of time in which either party has to cure
interference pursuant to Section 19.
B. In the event of a Default, without limiting the non-defaulting
party in the exercise of any right or remedy which the non-defaulting party
may have by reason of such default, the non-defaulting party may terminate
this Lease and/or pursue any remedy now or hereafter available to the non-
defaulting party under the laws of the State of Washington. Further, upon a
Default, and upon written notice, the non-defaulting party may at its option
(but without obligation to do so), perform the defaulting party's duty or
obligation. The costs and expenses of any such performance by the non-
defaulting party shall be due and payable by the defaulting party upon
invoice therefor.
Section 22. Insurance. Lessee shall carry and maintain for the duration of
the Lease insurance against claims for injuries to persons or damages to
property which may arise from or in connection with the exercise of the
rights, privileges and authority granted hereunder to Lessee, its agents,
representatives or employees. Lessee shall provide an insurance certificate,
together with an additional insured endorsement with coverage as least as
broad as Additional Endorsement ISO form CG 20 11, including that the
City, its officers, elected officials, employees, representatives, engineers,
consultants and volunteers are covered as additional insureds by blanket
endorsement with respect to this Agreement, to the City for its inspection
prior to the commencement of any work or installation of any
Communications Equipment pursuant to this Lease, and such insurance
certificate shall evidence:
(i)Commercial general liability insurance, based on ISO form CG
00 01 or its equivalent, on an occurrence basis, with limits of:
(a)$5,000,000.00 for bodily injury or death or property
damage per occurrence and in the aggregate; and shall cover
premises and contractual liability.
(ii)Automobile liability for owned, non-owned and hired vehicles
with a combined single limit of $2,000,000.00 for each accident;
and (iii)Worker's compensation within statutory limits or be a
qualified self-insurer, and employer's liability insurance with limits of
$1,000,000.00 per accident/per disease policy limit/per disease per
employee.
(iv)Pollution self-insurance with limits of $1,000,000 per claim
and in the aggregate covering third party claims for bodily injury,
property damage or cleanup costs as required by law, where the
pollution is caused during and by Lessee’s operations under this
Agreement. Lessee may self-insure this risk under the same terms as
required by this Agreement.
1. The liability insurance policies required by this Section shall be
maintained by Lessee throughout the term of this Lease, and such other
period of time during which Lessee is operating without a Lease, or is
engaged in the removal of its Communications Equipment. Such
insurance shall have A.M. Best Company ratings of no less than A-VII.
Payment of deductibles and self-insured retentions shall be the sole
responsibility of Lessee. The insurance required of Lessee pursuant to
this Section shall be primary to any insurance maintained by the City
and any such insurance maintained by the City, its officers, officials,
employees, consultants, and volunteers shall be deemed excess
insurance and not contribute with Lessee's insurance to the extent that
Section 23. allocates liability to Lessee. Lessee may meet the policy
limit requirements of this Section through the use of an umbrella excess
liability insurance policy, provided that the City is provided with an
insurance certificate evidencing that the City is an additional insured on
said policy by blanket endorsement with respect to this Agreement,
using ISO Additional Insured-Managers or Lessors of Premises Form
CG 20 11 or a substitute endorsement providing at least as broad
coverage.
B. The Lessee is obligated to ensure that the City is notified of any
cancellation or intent not to renew any insurance policy, required pursuant to
this Section 22., at least thirty (30) days prior to any such cancellation unless
replaced. At least ten (10) days prior to said cancellation or intent not to
renew, the Lessee shall obtain and furnish to the City a certificate evidencing
replacement insurance policies meeting the requirements of this Section 22.
Failure to provide the insurance cancellation notice or to furnish to the City a
certificate evidencing replacement insurance policies meeting the
requirements of this Section 22. shall be considered a material breach of this
Lease.
C. The Lessee's maintenance of insurance as required by this
Section 22. shall not be construed to limit the liability of the Lessee to the
coverage provided by such insurance, or otherwise limit the City's recourse to
any remedy available at law or equity. Further, the Lessee's maintenance of
insurance policies required by this Lease shall not be construed to excuse
unfaithful performance by the Lessee.
D. As of the effective date of this Lease, Lessee self-insures its
pollution liability coverage. Should Lessee wish to self-insure other
coverages at the levels outlined in this Lease at a later date, Lessee must
provide the City with thirty (30) days advanced written notice of its intent to
self-insure. In order to self-insure, the Lessee shall comply with the
following: (i) make available to the City, upon request, a copy of Lessee’s
most recent annual report; (ii) Lessee is responsible for all payments within
the self-insured retention; and (iii) Lessee assumes all defense and indemnity
obligations as outlined in the indemnification provisions of Section 23. of this
Lease. These requirements may be modified by written amendment executed
by both parties.
Section 23. Indemnification and Waiver.
A. Lessee hereby agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the
City, its officers, employees, agents and representatives from any and all
claims, costs, judgments, awards or liability actually incurred by or asserted
against the City, its officers, employees, agents or representatives arising
from injury, sickness, or death of any person or damage to property, to the
extent arising directly as a result of:
(i) the acts or omissions of Lessee, its agents, servants, officers or
employees in performing the activities authorized by this Lease;
(ii) Lessee's exercise of the rights granted herein;
(iii) the acts or omissions of Lessee, its Subtenants, agents, servants,
officers or employees in barricading, instituting trench safety systems or
providing other adequate warnings of any excavation, construction, or work
upon the Facility, in any public way, or other public place in performance of
work or services permitted under this Lease;
(iv) radio frequency emissions or radiation emitted from Lessee's
equipment located upon the Facility.
B. The provisions of this Section shall apply to claims by Lessee's
own employees and the employees of Lessee's agents, representatives,
contractors, and subcontractors to which Lessee might otherwise be immune
under Title 51 RCW. This waiver of immunity under Title 51 RCW has been
mutually negotiated by the parties hereto, and Lessee acknowledges that the
City would not enter into this Lease without Lessee’s waiver thereof.
C. Any permitting by the City of Lessee’s use of the Site, public
ways or public property, and/or any inspection or acceptance by the City of
any work performed by Lessee at the time of completion of construction,
shall not be grounds for avoidance of any of these covenants of
indemnification or for Lessee to bring suit against the City for any losses
suffered by Lessee as a result of such use of the Site, public ways or public
property by Lessee. Provided that Lessee has been given prompt written
notice by the City of any such claim, Lessee’s indemnification obligations
shall extend to claims which are not reduced to a suit and any claims which
may be compromised prior to the culmination of any litigation or the
institution of any litigation. City’s failure to so notify and request
indemnification shall not relieve Lessee of any liability that Lessee might
have, except to the extent that such failure prejudices Lessee’s ability to
defend such claim or suit. The City has the right to defend any such claim or,
in the event Lessee has assumed the defense of any claim as provided herein,
the City has the right to reasonably participate in, but not control, the
Lessee’s defense of any such claim, and has the right to approve any
settlement or other compromise of any such claim unless such settlement or
compromise (i) does not entail any admission on the part of the City, its
officers, employees, agents or representatives that they violated any law or
infringed the rights of any person or entity, (ii) has no effect on any other
claim against the City, its officers, employees, agents and representatives,
(iii) provides for monetary damages that are paid in full by the Lessee as the
claimants sole relief under such settlement or compromise, and (iv) requires
that the claimant release the City, its officers, employees, agents and
representatives from all liability alleged by such claimant under the claim for
which Lessee has an indemnification obligations herein.
D. In the event that Lessee refuses the tender of defense in any suit
or any claim, said tender having been made pursuant to this Section, and said
refusal is subsequently finally determined by a court having jurisdiction (or
such other tribunal that the parties shall agree to decide the matter), to have
been a wrongful refusal on the part of Lessee, then Lessee shall pay all of the
City's reasonable costs directly related to defense of the action, including all
reasonable expert witness fees, reasonable attorneys' fees, the reasonable
administrative costs of the City, and reasonable attorneys' fees of recovering
under this Subsection.
E. The obligations of Lessee under the indemnification provisions of
this Section 23. shall apply regardless of whether liability for damages arising
out of bodily injury to persons or damages to property were caused or
contributed to by the concurrent negligence of the City, its officers, agents,
employees or contractors However, should a court of competent jurisdiction
determine that this agreement is subject to RCW 4.24.115, then the liability
for damages arising out of bodily injury to persons or damages to property
were caused or contributed to by the concurrent negligence of the City,
Lessee's liability under this Section shall be allocated based upon Lessee's
proportionate share of liability, as determined by said court.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in no event shall
the indemnification or defense obligations of Lessee herein apply to the
extent any losses arise as a result of or in connection with the sole negligence
or willful misconduct of the City or its officers, agents, employees or
contractors.
F. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section, Lessee
assumes the risk of damage to its telecommunications facilities located in the
public ways and upon City-owned property from activities conducted by the
City, its officers, agents, employees and contractors, except to the extent any
such damage or destruction is caused by or arises from the sole negligence or
any willful or criminal conduct on the part of the City, its officers, agents,
employees or contractors. In no event shall the City be responsible for
indirect, special, consequential, or punitive damages or losses, including but
not limited to lost income or business interruption, whether or not a party has
been advised of the possibility of such damage and notwithstanding the
theory of liability in which an action may be brought. Lessee releases and
waives any and all such claims against the City, its officers, agents,
employees or contractors. Lessee further agrees to indemnify, hold harmless
and defend the City against any claims for damages actually incurred by or
asserted against the City, including, but not limited to, business interruption
damages and lost profits, brought by or under users of Lessee's facilities to
the extent arising as the result of any interruption of service due to damage or
destruction of Lessee's facilities, except to the extent arising from or related
to the negligence, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the City, its
officers, agents, employees or contractors.
G. The provisions of this Section shall survive the expiration,
revocation, or termination of this Lease.
Section 24. Covenant Not to Bring Suit. The amount of the fees provided
for in this Lease have been as a result of negotiations between the parties.
Lessee acknowledges and covenants not to bring suit with respect to the
amount of said fees seeking to recover all or any portion of the same, and
hereby waives any and all such claims as against the City and its elected or
appointed officials and releases the City and its elected or appointed officials
from any and all claims related to the amount of fees payable under this
Lease. This Section shall not be construed as preventing or limiting any
remedy Lessee may have under law or in equity with respect to recovering
any amounts paid in excess of the amounts negotiated between the parties as
provided for in this Lease or with respect to any failure by the City to satisfy
any requirements upon which the amount or payment of fees due under this
Lease are expressly conditioned.
Section 25. Holdover. If Lessee shall, with the written consent of the City,
holdover after the expiration of the term of this Lease, the holdover tenancy
shall be for a period of time on a month to month basis at a monthly Rent
equal to one hundred fifty percent (150%) of the then-current monthly Rent
paid by Lessee immediately prior to the expiration of the Term, payable in
advance on or before the first (1st) day of each month. Such month-to-month
holdover may be terminated by the provision of thirty (30) days advance
written notice by the party seeking termination of the tenancy to the other
party. During such tenancy Lessee agrees to be bound by all of the terms,
covenants, agreements and conditions as herein specified, so far as
applicable.
Section 26. Hazardous Substances.
A. The City represents that it has no actual knowledge of any
substance, chemical, or waste (collectively, "Hazardous Substances") on the
Facility that is identified as hazardous, toxic, or dangerous in any federal,
state, or local environmental or safety law or regulation. Neither Party shall
introduce or use any such substance on the Facility or at the Site in violation
of any applicable law or regulation, nor shall either Party allow any of its
agents, or any other person under its control to do the same.
B. Lessee will be solely responsible for and will defend, indemnify,
and hold the City, its agents, and employees harmless from and against any
and all direct claims, costs, and liabilities including reasonable attorneys' fees
and costs, arising out of or in connection with the cleanup or restoration of
the property associated with Lessee's use, storage, or disposal of Hazardous
Substances or the use, storage, or disposal of such substances by Lessee's
agents, contractors, or other persons acting under Lessee's control.
C. The City will be solely responsible for and will defend,
indemnify, and hold Lessee, its agents, and employees harmless from and
against any and all direct claims, costs, and liabilities, including reasonable
attorneys' fees and costs arising out of or in connection with the removal,
cleanup, or restoration of the property associated with the City's use of
Hazardous Substances, storage, or disposal of Hazardous Substances, or the
use, storage, or disposal of such substances by City’s agents, contractors, or
other persons acting under City’s control.
Section 27. City's Removal of Lessee's Property. In the event of Lessee’s
failure to remove Lessee's Communications Equipment upon the expiration
or termination of the Lease in accordance with Section 5. above, the City
shall have the right, but not the obligation, after giving 30 days’ notice to
Lessee, to remove from the Site and Facility all of Lessee's personal property
located therein, and may store the same in any place selected by the City,
including, but not limited to, a public warehouse at the expense and risk of
Lessee thereof. If the City removes Lessee's property as provided under this
Section, it shall immediately provide Lessee written notice of such removal,
and notice of Lessee's right to redeem the property after payment of any sums
due the City, including the City's costs of removal and storage. If within 30
days of such written notice Lessee does not redeem the property, the City
shall have the right to sell such stored property. If such property has
thereafter been stored for a period of 30 days or more and then sold, the
proceeds of such sale shall be applied first to the cost of the sale, second to
the payment of the charges for storage, if any, and third to the payment of any
other sums of money which may then be due from Lessee to the City under
any terms hereof, the balance, if any, to be paid to Lessee. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Section, City may request in writing
at any time prior to the removal of Lessee’s Communications Equipment, that
Lessee transfer ownership of such Communications Equipment to the City
instead of removing such Communications Equipment, and if Lessee, in its
sole and absolute discretion, elects to transfer such Communications
Equipment to City, such transfer will be accomplished in a manner mutually
acceptable to the parties, and upon such transfer Lessee shall have no further
obligations with respect to such property.
Section 28. Restoration of City Property. Lessee shall, after installation,
construction, relocation, maintenance, removal, or repair of its
Communications Equipment, restore the Site property outside the Facility
which may be disturbed by the work, to at least the same condition the City-
owned property was in immediately prior to any such installation,
construction, relocation, maintenance, or repair, excepting casualty not
caused by Lessee and normal wear and tear. The City shall have final
approval of the condition of such property after restoration, which approval
shall not be unreasonably withheld. All survey monuments which are to be
disturbed or displaced by such work shall be referenced and restored, as per
WAC 332-120, as the same now exists or may hereafter be amended, and all
pertinent federal, state and local standards and specifications. The provisions
of this Section shall survive the expiration, revocation, or termination by
other means of this Lease.
Section 29. Waiver of City’s Lien. The City hereby waives any and all lien
rights it may have, statutory or otherwise, concerning Lessee's
Communications Equipment or any portion thereof which may be deemed
personal property for the purposes of this Lease, regardless of whether or not
the same is deemed real or personal property under applicable laws. The City
gives Lessee and any mortgagee or secured party the right to remove all or
any portion of said property from time to time, consistent with the
requirements and provisions of this Lease, whether before or after any default
under this Lease.
Section 30. Modification, Waiver. No waiver, alteration or modification of
any of the provisions of this Lease shall be binding unless in writing and
signed by duly authorized representatives of the parties.
Section 31. Non-Release of Obligations upon Termination. No
termination, forfeiture, or cancellation of this Lease shall release Lessee from
any liability or obligation with respect to any matter occurring prior to such
termination, default or cancellation and which by its nature does or should
survive such termination, default or cancellation, nor shall termination,
default or cancellation release Lessee from its obligation and liability to
remove its Communications Equipment and restore the Site and Facility to its
original condition ordinary wear and tear withstanding.
Section 32. Assignment. This Lease shall run with the property and shall be
binding on and inure to the benefit of the parties, their respective successors
and assigns. However, except as expressly provided in Section 2 and Section
14, Lessee shall not assign or transfer this Lease or sublet all or any portion
of the Facility without the prior written consent from the City, which consent
shall not be unreasonably be withheld, delayed, or conditioned.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Lessee may assign its rights and obligations
to an affiliate without consent. Affiliate for purposes of this provision is any
entity that controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with Lessee.
Lessee may also assign this Lease without City’s consent to an entity that
acquires all or substantially all of Lessee’s assets in the market in which the
Facility is located or an entity that acquires Lessee by a change of stock
ownership or partnership interest and such assignee entity operates the
Facilities subject to this Lease in the same manner as Lessee.
Section 33. Non-Waiver of Breach. The failure of either party to insist upon
strict performance of any of the covenants and agreements of this Lease, or to
exercise any option herein conferred in any one or more instances, shall not
be construed to be a waiver or relinquishment of any such covenant,
agreement or option, or any other covenant, agreement or option.
Section 34. Notice. All notices must be in writing and shall be valid upon
receipt when delivered by hand, by nationally recognized courier service, or
by First Class United States Mail, certified, return receipt requested to the
