CSTVCIC PUBLIC TELECOMMUNICATIONS TOWER PROJECT

The goal of this project is to help increase cellular, wireless ISP, and public telecommunications coverage in the CSTVCIC area by lowering barrier to entry costs and regulations, and sharing facilities and costs proportionately where possible.

The CSTVCIC will construct an openly accessible non-profit public telecommunications tower on property located in the eastern portion of Mineral City.
The base elevation is approximately 1160' and the tower height will be approximately 300'.
For-profit carriers will be assessed monthly rent payments or annual leases to proportionately offset administration and maintenance expenses.
Non-profit users will be assessed monthly rent payments, annual leases, or render other services to proportionately offset administration and maintenance expenses.
The CSTVCIC and all tower tenants will share utilities proportionately.
Position slots on the tower will be determined by first come-first served, with upper levels reserved for CSTVCIC and other critical public service needs.
No extra charges will be assessed to position slots.
No position slots will be sublet by tenants.
All appurtenances will be weighed by an on-site scale prior to installation to calculate total tower loads.
A shared equipment facility may be provided by the CSTVCIC per tenants' interests
