The Mills County Board of Supervisors approved an amendment to an existing tower agreement with NextLink that increases monthly rent by $50 to cover electrical-service fees, county staff reported.
A county representative said negotiations with NextLink resolved anticipated increases tied to electrical costs; the additional $50 per month is explicitly to offset service fees borne by the county. “We were able to basically negotiate out an increase in the rent…they're going to pay us an additional $50 a month to cover electrical service fees,” a county representative said during the meeting.
The board moved and seconded the signature authorization and held a brief discussion before voting to approve the updated agreement. No additional conditions or amendments were reported during the meeting.
The agreement amendment will be filed as an amendment to the existing tower contract and signed as authorized by the board.
