WAXE RADIO LICENSE AGREEMENT, Acting General Services Director Lynn Williams reviewed the following memo: TO: The Honorable Members of DATE: September 10, 1982 FILE: Agenda the Board of County Commissioners September 15,1982 THRU: Michael Wright SUBJECT: WARE Radio License Agreement County Administrator FROM: Lynn Williams REFERENCES: Acting General ervices Director DESCRIPTION AND CONDITIONS Proper Public Notice was published in the Vero Beach Press Journal on August 24, 31 and September 7, 1982.for the lease and/or license of a parcel of County cw.ned land located at the Transfer Station on Old Dixie Highway. One bid was received from WAXE Radio. A license agreement was granted to WGYL Radio, May 5, 1982 for a non-exclusive license to use said property for the purpose of con stucting a radio tower. Mr. Dick Crago, WAXE Radio has attempted unsuccessfully to negotiate a common use of the tower to be built by WGYL on the property lic- ensed in May 1982. Mr. Crago has approached the County with a request for a similar agreement for a parcel of land.adjacent to and South of the WGYL property. WAXE has requested a parcel 400 X 400 feet or approximately 3.67 acres to be used for a 200 foot tower with transmitter building. ALTERNATIVES AND ANALYSIS Attached is a completed license agreement for the use of the property located at the Old Dixie Transfer station. The agreement with WARE is essentially the same as the WGYL agreement with one exception; the grace period for payment of the annual lease is extended to ten days. WGYL agreement grace period was for three (3) days which Mr. Crago felt was not enough time to correct a deficiency, in case of an oversight whereby he was late with the annual payment. The proposed annual lease rate is $900 for the first ten years with an additional ten year option at a rate of $1'200 annually. The previously granted license agreement with WGYL was for the same time frame with annual payments of $1200 for the first ten years graduating to $1500 annually for the option years. WAXE has received FCC approval of the adjacent site and Mr. Crago has stated he anticipates no difficulty obtaining the same approval for his new situ. This property has been put out for bid two times in the last five (5) years with only two different bidders, WAXE and WGYL. 31 SEP 15 1982 51 P4,60
