SUMMARY STATEMENT:

The Alaska Wireless Network, LLC has requested a Consent to Assignment to transfer their Port of Valdez Use Agreement to AWN Tower Company, LLC.

The Port Use Agreement is for their cell site on the grain silos at the VCT.  The current Use Agreement is for a term of 5 years, which began on October 1, 2015 and will terminate on September 30, 2020.  The agreement has three 5-year extensions provided that all the terms of the agreement are being met and the City deems this to be in the best interest of the City.

The City Attorney has reviewed the Consent to Assignment, and staff does not have an issue with transferring this cell site agreement.
