1. Hurricane City Secondary Water Efficiency Project – Bid Award for Final Phase – Council
Questions
Dear Council,
At the previous City Council Meeting, several questions were raised about the secondary
water system.
First, regarding rates, the current rate in the existing system is $12 per month. However,
to adequately cover maintenance and repairs and bond payment obligations, staff
recommend a uniform rate of $19.37 for the entire system, old and new.
Second, on the questions of connections, we recommend encouraging property owners
to connect to the new system, but not requiring it. Property owners will have the option
to hook up during construction and up to one year after construction ends without a
connection fee. After that period, however, a connection fee would apply. Currently,
any property owners that have access to the City's secondary water are charged a
higher rate for culinary water. This same rate structure will apply in the area with the
new pressurized irrigation system, meaning that the property owners that have access
to the new system will be on the higher culinary water rate regardless of whether they
utilize the new secondary system.
Staff recommends approval of this approach to balance cost recovery with flexibility for
residents.
Thanks,
Kory Wright
Water Superintendent
New Business
1. The bid opening for the Sky Mountain Golf Course Clubhouse Remodel and Expansion
was held on September 10, 2026. Fifteen bids were received from qualified contractors.
Findings: The engineering firm’s evaluation and was to go with the low bidder,
Bonneville Builders. Bonneville Builders’ bid came in at $2,621,036. Followed by Watts
Construction at $2,656,848 and the Tushar Contracting at $2,697,139.
Recommendation: Approve the award of the Sky Mountain Golf Course Clubhouse
Remodel and Expansion bid to Bonneville Builders. – Cam Hamill
2. Potentially obtaining a new fleet of golf carts at Sky Mountain Golf Course. Increased
costs associated with new lease. Pros and cons, etc.

Page 4 of 119

Findings: Budget for cart lease will need to be increased from $125,000 $160,434. Most
warranties on the current cart fleet have expired, the only components remaining under
warranty are the lithium batteries. The golf course has been so busy carts have
exceeded expected mileage. Many are cosmetically damaged and cart breakdowns are
rapidly increasing. Customer complaints about the condition of golf carts have also
increased. New fleet will be covered by extensive four-year warranty. Savings on repairs
and maintenance will be substantial. Customer experience will be enhanced. Golf course
daily operations will run more smoothly with new fleet. Especially during high traffic and
tournament days.
Recommendation: Recommend starting new cart lease with Intermountain Golf Cars
and obtain new fleet as soon as possible. – Cam Hamill
3. Each year, The Dove Center invites all municipalities in Washington County to join in
proclaiming October as Domestic Violence Awareness Month. This proclamation
highlights important statistics on domestic violence and emphasizes the need for
community action to break the silence and work toward ending domestic violence in our
area. - Cindy Beteag
4. Dave Houston’s lease for Hangar 13S is expiring, and Mr. Houston has requested to
enter into a new lease agreement. City Attorney Dayton Hall prepared the proposed
lease agreement using the City’s approved lease template. The Airport Board considered
the request at its September 15, 2026, meeting and unanimously recommended
approval of the proposed lease agreement. Staff recommends that the City Council
approve the proposed lease agreement with Dave Houston for Hangar 13S. – Cindy
Beteag
5. This will be a complete overhaul of the pole attachment agreement. Hurricane City
currently has an agreement that has been included with the packet. The new document
contains the agreement and several appendices. The agreement will be similar to St.
George and Washington City and has been reviewed by Dayton Hall. This agreement will
last for 5 years and will automatically renew twice. Once at the end of the first five years
and a second time after 10 years. Section 3.11 was also added to allow the fees and
charges to be updated by resolution of the Hurricane City Council to allow the City to
adjust costs as needed throughout the duration of the contract.
The first appendix is the Pole Attachment Fees and Penalties. This document contains a
breakdown of all the associated fees and penalties both annual and recurring. Currently
the Licensees are being charged $10.00 per pole attachment. This will be increased to
$20.00 per attachment annually. This will make us comparable to neighboring cities.
Additional fees that will be included is a $50.00 annual fee for wire storage on Poles. A
non-recurring fee of $225.00 for permit application fee of (1-20) poles and riser fee of
$50.00. There will also be penalties for unauthorized attachments and failure to
transfer, abandon, or remove facilities.
Appendix B outlines the Pole Attachment Permit Application Process. Currently there is
not a documented process. This agreement will require a review process of the

Page 5 of 119

submitted application and that all necessary fees are paid before any communication
infrastructure can be installed.
Appendix C is the Application for Pole Attachment Permit. This will require the Licensee
to give a description of the work they are requesting and additional information such as
number of new pole attachments, if they are removing or replacing equipment, if guying
is required, etc.
Appendix D is the Specifications for Licensee’s Attachments to City Poles. This outlines
how they will be required to attach to the City’s power poles. Hurricane City does not
currently have an attachment standard. This will all be new and will allow the power
department to ensure that telecommunications infrastructure is installed properly.
Appendix E is the Distribution Line Minimum Design Review Information and
Worksheet. This outlines the minimum conditions to calculate pole strength and has a
worksheet for the Licensee to fill out any design information. The City may direct that
certain attachments do not require the submission of the Design Review Information.
Appendix F is a Field Drawing and Data Summary Sheet Instructions sheet.
Appendix G is the Annual Reporting Form for Attachments. This document will be
required to be filled out by February 1st of each year. It will detail any additional
attachments, risers, etc. or any removals. This will be compared to the last years total
and all attachment applications to ensure that an accurate count is being recorded. This
will determine how much each Licensee will be invoiced in March.
Recommendation: The Pole Attachment License Agreement was recommended for
approval unanimously by the Power Board on 9/9/2026.

Darren Barney showed pictures of how Veterans Park will look when it is completed and then
showed the concrete that had been poured for the star center. He explained that the
monuments will have the names of all the veterans in the valley around the star. They will be
starting on the curb and gutter. He followed up on the benches at the pickleball courts and
found that only two of them had been installed. He explained that the fill dirt has large rocks,
making it difficult to install them. They will continue to work on it. The Parks Department has
been busy setting up for Peach Days this week. They are also involved with setting up for the
rodeo. He went out to the rodeo arena today and noticed that all the signs for no standing,
smoking, or alcohol had been removed, and they don't know who took them. They will work on
getting new ones.

Kory Wright reported that as of September 1st, the Stratton, West, and Dixie Springs wells had
used 56.1% of their water rights. The Ash Creek and Toquerville Springs had used 56% of their
water rights. He stated that last year they purchased 108 million gallons of water from the
Water District, but this year they have only purchased 63 million gallons, saving approximately
$85,000 so far this year. He stated that on Monday night, a fire hydrant weld joint blew off and
emptied the Sand Hollow Tank before it was found. Over one million gallons of water were lost.
Crews are still busy fixing leaks. Councilman Imlay asked if the water tanks got really low during
the power outage and if that is something that needs to be addressed during an outage. Mr.
Wright stated that the Power Department worked great with them to get the power back on,
but the SCADA system had some damage. They worked on it until late as people were still using
a lot of water during the outage. Their generator worked, but they need to look at purchasing
additional generators for other areas. He stated they will also be looking at a new SCADA
system in the next couple of years. Councilman Spendlove asked when they would be filling the
irrigation pond. Mr. Wright stated they are scheduled to come calibrate it on the 14th. Due to
some scheduling conflicts, they plan to go live the last week of September. They are working on
getting the fencing and gates finished before it is filled.

Also Present: City Manager Kaden DeMille, City Attorney Dayton Hall, Public Works Director
Mike Vercimak, Streets Superintendent Hayden Roberts, Water Superintendent Kory Wright,
City Planner Gary Cupp, Assistant Planner Fred Resch III, City Engineer Arthur LeBaron, HR
Director Sel Lovell, Parks Superintendent Darren Barney, Finance Manager Brendan Angus, and

Sel Lovell stated there are two new hires for Police, one of which is a current employee who
moved from Animal Shelter Attendant to Animal Control Officer. He stated they held interviews
last week for positions in the Recreation Department, but he has not heard anything back yet.
The website redesign is coming along, and he is hoping to get the new policy manual
notifications out tomorrow. Councilman Spendlove asked about the Flock cameras. Mr. Lovell
stated they are license plate readers. Councilman Excell explained that the City has an
agreement with the State of Utah regarding the cameras and the system can only be accessed if
there is a case and a valid reason to look at it. He asked who is monitoring the system. Mayor
Fawcett asked how they know the information is not going somewhere else. Dayton Hall stated
there are three automatic license plate readers in Hurricane. He explained that Flock is a brand
name and the City does not have Flock cameras in Hurricane. The cameras are Motorola and do
not take audio or video; they only photograph license plates. The City received a permit from
UDOT to install the three cameras, and State law requires the City to adopt a policy regulating
them, which the City has done. The policy requires monthly audits and a legitimate reason to
access the system. Mayor Fawcett confirmed the City owns the cameras and controls the
information collected. Kaden DeMille added that the cameras do not capture the driver, only
the license plate.

Mike Vercimak stated his department is still assessing the flood damage and looking at
remedies, policies, and procedures. Mayor Fawcett stated he would like to set up a meeting to
go over all the information. He has some people who want to volunteer to help with this in the
future. Mr. Lovell asked about the MS4 training and if the Council has had any trouble accessing
it. Councilman Excell stated he has had trouble and it will not let him finish it. Mr. Lovell stated
they are struggling to get 75% of employees to complete the training, which worries him
because next year they have to reach 100%. Mr. Vercimak stated they need to find another way
to send it out to everyone because Trailiant does not reach everyone.

Hayden Roberts stated the slurry seal project is wrapping up, with just some touch-ups
remaining. His department has also been helping with the setup for Peach Days. They put
pedestrian rails along State Street and have also been checking storm drains. Councilman Imlay
asked about the drainage issue near Tractor Supply that the Council received a complaint
about. Mr. Roberts stated he will have to research it. Councilman Excell stated he has met with
the owner and will meet with Mr. Roberts in the morning to discuss it.

Arthur LeBaron stated the Peach Days parade is fully staffed. He stated they have made some
major changes to the parade route over the last few years, and it now ends in a different
location with hard road closures. There are no major changes this year, but he asked for
feedback if they see any concerns. He thanked staff for helping with the event. He also received
the notice of award for the grant for the H property. Mayor Fawcett stated he would like to
make a plan for improvements as soon as it closes. Mr. LeBaron stated he would like to get
lights to the property first. He stated there will be a preconstruction meeting next week for the
second access to the Sand Hollow exit. They are also starting the design for the second phase of
that project. The 100 S project is advertised and has received a lot of interest. There was a
prebid meeting for the clubhouse this week, and it was standing room only.

Gary Cupp announced that there will not be a Planning Commission meeting next week as they
will be attending a conference. The next meeting will be on the 24th. He mentioned that Lorin
Lowe has submitted his General Plan request, but it does not include any zone changes or site
plans. He stated staff attended a workshop this week regarding future town centers. When the
maps are available, he will send them out. The new City campus and other areas along 600 N.,
3000 S., and the Sand Hollow corridor were suggested as future town centers. Mayor Fawcett
mentioned he has received concerns from some business owners who are frustrated that flag
signs are not allowed. He expects them to come in and talk to the Council.

Fred Resch III stated they followed up with the businesses this week regarding the flag signs. He
stated they told the businesses that were upset to talk to the Council. He also stated that
animal nuisance complaints need to be directed to Animal Control, not Code Enforcement.

Dayton Hall stated that regarding the signage at the Equestrian Park, drinking and smoking are

is not allowed.

Kaden DeMille explained that the City applied for CIB grant funding from the State for the
Police Station. The first round indicated there were not enough funds, but after additional
funds became available, they applied. He and Mayor Fawcett drove up this morning to attend
the meeting where the funds were being awarded. However, they received a phone call when
they were four minutes away and were told that the Board had reviewed the agenda and
removed some applicants they did not feel fit the criteria. Hurricane City was removed from the
agenda and was not considered. Mayor Fawcett explained that the main purpose of the funds is
to benefit communities in areas that have significant mineral mining activities. Most of the
funds go to those communities, but anyone can apply. The Board stated they wanted to save
some of the money for the next round. He was disappointed they removed the City from
consideration the day of the meeting instead of reviewing it ahead of time. Mr. DeMille stated
this was a funding option, but it was not considered at the beginning, so they will go back to the
original plan. There will be a parameters resolution at the second meeting in October for the
Council to consider.

emailed to them. Mrs. Beteag reminded the Council to let Millie Anderson know if they want to
attend the Utah League conference. Lastly, she let the Council know that she will be out of
town the week before the October 1st meeting, so the packet will not be sent until the Monday
before the meeting.

Jamie Stevenson stated he built a home on 850 West and has some concerns about the flood
last month. As part of an after-action report, he asked the Council to look at the infrastructure
that contributed to the flooding. He stated the bridge on 700 West is very old and low, and
when debris backed up, it pushed water down 700 West. Secondly, the parcel the City owns in
the Pecan Meadows subdivision has a low point that contributed to the water flow. Lastly,
there is only one drainage for the neighborhood. He stated no homes along the wash flooded.
The issue was Pecan Meadows, where the bridge overflowed and the low parcel owned by the
City contributed to the flooding. He stated it flooded from the front of the wash, not the back.
He asked the Council to look at and walk the area. A lot of residents showed up on Sunday, and
he thanked everyone for helping.

Consideration and possible approval of Zone Change Ordinance No. ZC26-11 to rezone
a 0.85-acre parcel from Residential Agricultural 0.5 (RA-0.5) to Recreation Resort (RR);

Dayton Hall explained that the Council considered this item at the last meeting. The general
indication was that they were open to rezoning the property to add it to the resort, on the
condition that it could not be developed until the second access is in place. An agreement was
provided in the packet, which he has reviewed. Chris Wyler stated he has no concerns with the
agreement but asked if it affected the second and fourth phases. Mr. Hall explained that the
restrictions for the second access only apply to what is defined as additional property in the
draft development agreement.

Mayor Fawcett stated there are issues that need to be worked through before this can be
implemented. Arthur LeBaron agreed that the technical side of implementation will be difficult,
but staff can work through it. He stated the Council discussed this at the last meeting and
directed staff to put it into a new ordinance that will supersede the previous one. Mayor
Fawcett explained that one of the problems is when there are multiple tenants, they will need
to be split so they are not double charged. Mr. LeBaron stated there are over 500 properties
that will need to be evaluated. Staff will go through each property one by one to set up the tiers
and then come up with a plan for ongoing properties. Mayor Fawcett stated they need to be
consistent, so they are all treated the same. Councilwoman Werrett clarified that a home-based
business would pay the residential fee and that the second year does not start until July 2028.
Mr. LeBaron explained that any tier over $100 per month will receive a four-year
implementation plan. Councilman Excell confirmed the proposed letter will go out to all the
businesses explaining what will happen.

Kory Wright explained they are ready to award the contract to Interstate Rock for the next
phase of the irrigation expansion project. He stated this has taken a lot of time and discussion
with staff and thanked everyone for their help getting it to this point. He stated it is a good
project for the residents and everyone involved has the best interest of the residents in mind.
Interstate Rock is the lowest bidder in the amount of $6,568,824.50. He mentioned they have
had this bid on the table for a few months, and Interstate Rock has not raised the price even
though costs have increased. Councilman Imlay stated Interstate Rock did an amazing job on
the first phase.

Kaden DeMille mentioned he received an email from the engineer last night. They have been
trying to determine how this will be funded. He stated that from a financial standpoint, they are
not ready to make a recommendation based on the information received. He stated this will be
a loss for a number of years until more people can be connected to the system, and they need
more time to review the numbers. Councilman Excell stated Phase 1 will be starting soon and
asked when citizens will start paying the fee. Mr. Wright explained they need to establish a
rate, and once the system is connected to a property, they will start paying it. He stated that
people who have irrigation but are not connected to the system pay a higher culinary fee.
Councilman Excell stated he understood that when the system is connected, culinary rates
5

would increase. Mayor Fawcett stated that will need to be coordinated because he wants to
give people a good opportunity to connect to the secondary system before they are charged a
higher fee. He stated the decision to move forward was made with Phase 1, and now they need
to finish the system so there are more people paying for it. He does not think they can go back
without making it worse.

Councilman Excell stated Interstate Rock was the low bidder and asked if continuing the item
would affect them. Chase Stratton stated they are okay with continuing it to the next meeting.
Councilman Excell stated getting the system online should reduce the amount of culinary water
used and asked if that would help reduce the amount of water purchased from the District. Mr.
Wright explained that water in the valley is pulled from the West Well and Toquerville Springs.
The more water they can pull from those sources for homes, the less water they have to pull
from the Cottam Well. The water purchased from the District is not from this well, so it would
not be affected as much. He stated it would help by taking outside watering off the culinary
system. Once the project is completed and people are connected, they will have a better idea
of what the revenues will be. Mr. DeMille stated most of the City's cash outlay has already
occurred. If they do not complete Phase 2, it will limit what they can do in the future. The
discrepancy is in the operations and maintenance costs. He stated he was skeptical of the
project at first, but as the cost of water increases, it will be beneficial for residents in the future.

Mayor Fawcett stated that when the first section of irrigation was installed in town, the Council
did not make it mandatory for people to connect. However, if you build in those areas now, it is
mandatory to connect. There will be no connection fee for residents connecting to the new
system. Mr. DeMille asked if connecting should be mandatory. Councilman Werrett asked if
that would make a big difference. Mayor Fawcett explained that the more people connected,
the more people will pay into the fund. He stated the operational costs are the problem until
they get enough people on the system. Councilman Imlay stated he does not like forcing people
to connect because it could be very costly for some people. Councilman Spendlove asked if they
could have a dual system. Mr. Wright stated they would need a swing check and explained that
if the systems become cross-connected, it could create problems. They would need to educate
residents on what a swing check is and how it works. Councilman Spendlove asked if it would
be a flat rate or based on how much they use. Mayor Fawcett stated it would be a flat rate, but
the State could change that in the future since they are the ones who required the water to be
metered.

subdivisions that are in violation and ask them to get the weeds cleaned up. Councilman Excell
stated it is a safety hazard when weeds are over the sidewalks and that there are landscapers in
the area who are not taking care of them. He asked Mr. Resch III to get pictures next week and
document which subdivisions are in violation, focusing on the PID area. Steve Nation stated the
overpass at 3000 S. and SR-7 is difficult to see through the tumbleweeds. Councilman Excell
explained that UDOT is responsible for that area. He mentioned seeing a disabled veteran
cutting weeds along SR-9 so he could use the sidewalk. He recommended a cleanup project to
remove weeds along SR-9 and the sidewalks and stated they need to have conversations with
UDOT about addressing the issue. Mayor Fawcett stated the City needs to clean up all City
property if they are going to ask others to clean up their property.

Hurricane City Secondary Water Efficiency Project – Bid Award for Final Phase – Council Questions
Dear Council,
At the previous City Council Meeting, several questions were raised about the secondary water system.
First, regarding rates, the current rate in the existing system is $12 per month. However, to adequately cover maintenance and
repairs and bond payment obligations, staff recommend a uniform rate of $19.37 for the entire system, old and new.
Second, on the questions of connections, we recommend encouraging property owners to connect to the new system, but not
requiring it. Property owners will have the option to hook up during construction and up to one year after construction ends without a
connection fee. After that period, however, a connection fee would apply. Currently, any property owners that have access to the
City's secondary water are charged a higher rate for culinary water. This same rate structure will apply in the area with the new
pressurized irrigation system, meaning that the property owners that have access to the new system will be on the higher culinary
water rate regardless of whether they utilize the new secondary system.
Staff recommends approval of this approach to balance cost recovery with flexibility for residents.
Thanks,
Kory Wright
Water Superintendent

STAFF COMMENTS
Agenda Date: September 3, 2026
Item: Consideration and possible approval of awarding the bid for the next phase of the irrigation
expansion project.
Discussion: Hurricane City has been working to improve and expand its secondary irrigation system
through a phased irrigation efficiency project.
Phase 1 of the project included the development of two 3-million-gallon irrigation storage ponds,
construction of a booster station, and installation of primary irrigation pipeline system. The Phase 1
system extended from approximately 700 West through 1300 South, continuing along 920 West to 650
South and serving the surrounding subdivisions. This work established the foundation for expanding
and improving the City’s secondary irrigation system.
Phase 2 will continue the City’s Irrigation improvements and extend the system into the remaining
areas not served during Phase 1. The proposed work will extend from the wash and the 400 South area
southward to approximately 1500 S and will include the remaining streets and areas within the portion
of the city requiring secondary irrigation infrastructure.
The purpose of Phase 2 is to continue increasing irrigation availability, improve system efficiency and
reliability, and provide additional residents and properties with access to the city’s secondary irrigation
system. Completing this phase will build upon the infrastructure established during Phase 1 and
further advance the city’s long-term irrigation efficiency goals.
Following the city’s bidding process, Interstate Rock submitted the bid recommended for this project.
Staff is requesting that the Hurricane City Council approve the bid award to Interstate Rock for the
Hurricane Irrigation Efficiency Project Phase 2, allowing the city to proceed with construction.
Findings:
Recommendation: Staff recommends that the Hurricane City Council approve the bid award to
Interstate Rock for Hurricane Irrigation Efficiency Project – Phase 2 and authorize the appropriate City
officials to execute the necessary agreements and proceed with the project in accordance with the bid
documents and applicable City requirements. – Kory Wright

Recommendation of Award of Contract to Interstate Rock Products for the
Hurricane Irrigation Efficiency – Phase 2 Project

Dear Ken:
Bids for Phase 2 construction of the Hurricane Irrigation Efficiency Project were received by
Hurricane City (City) on Tuesday, February 18, 2025. Bowen Collins & Associates (BC&A) completed
a review of the bids that were received from eight general contractors. The contract documents
specify the Hurricane Irrigation Efficiency – Phase 2 Project to be a ranked-based bid. Therefore,
contractors were evaluated based on their statement of qualifications, contract time (schedule), and
bid price.
Hurricane City formed an evaluation committee to rank each contractor based on the evaluation
criterion established in the contract documents. A summary of the committee’s ranking for each
contractor is provided below for reference and a detailed breakdown of the bids is attached for
information.

The bid document specifies that “All bids shall be checked for mathematical errors by the Engineer. If
errors have been made in the extension of the figures, it will be assumed that the unit prices are correct
and the total amounts will be revised to reflect the corrections.” Consequently, required adjustments
were made to the overall bid prices of Interstate Rock and Phaze Concrete. These adjusted bid prices
are listed in the table above and all mathematical corrections are highlighted in the attached bid
schedule summary. Interstate Rock Product’s overall bid price decreased by $8,480.

Qualifications from Interstate Rock Products and found them responsive. A copy of the preliminary
schedules submitted by the eight bidders is attached for reference. Subject to review and approval
by the City’s legal counsel and based on the City’s evaluations and other information presented above,
we recommend awarding the Hurricane Irrigation Efficiency – Phase 2 Project contract to Interstate
Rock Products in the amount of $6,568,824.50. An agreement should be executed pending receipt of
appropriate bonds and insurance documents following Notice of Award.
Please call with any questions or concerns regarding this recommendation. BC&A looks forward to
working with the City through the successful completion of this important project.

STAFF COMMENTS
Agenda Date: 9/17/2026
Item: Consideration and possible approval of a new lease agreement with Intermountain Golf Cars.
Discussion: Potentially obtaining a new fleet of golf carts at Sky Mountain Golf Course. Increased
costs associated with new lease. Pros and cons, etc.
Findings: Budget for cart lease will need to be increased from $125,000 $160,434. Most warranties
on the current cart fleet have expired, the only components remaining under warranty are the lithium
batteries. The golf course has been so busy carts have exceeded expected mileage. Many are
cosmetically damaged and cart breakdowns are rapidly increasing. Customer complaints about the
condition of golf carts have also increased. New fleet will be covered by extensive four-year warranty.
Savings on repairs and maintenance will be substantial. Customer experience will be enhanced. Golf
course daily operations will run more smoothly with new fleet. Especially during high traffic and
tournament days.
Recommendation: Recommend starting new cart lease with Intermountain Golf Cars and obtain
new fleet as soon as possible. – Cam Hamill

insurance policies shall be disclosed in such certificates and shall be “A- VII” or stronger as
published in the latest Best’s Key Rating Guide (or a comparable rating from a comparable
rating service). If a lower rating is proposed, City may examine the financial strength of the
insurance company proposed to provide coverage and may consent to a lower rating in the
City’s sole and absolute discretion, and City may also require additional assurances from
Tenant. All certificates shall be signed by a person authorized by the insurer and licensed by
8

Page 47 of 119

the State of Utah. All policies (except any policies required for worker’s compensation or error s
and omissions) and the certificates evidencing coverage shall name City and its officers,
employees, and volunteers as additional insureds (or in the case of property coverage, City
shall be named as a loss payee). Tenant shall provide for a renewal of all insurance coverage
on a timely basis to prevent any lapse in coverage. City retains the right to approve any
deductibles, and Tenant shall notify City of any material erosion of the aggregate limits of any
policy. Tenant’s policies shall be primary. Such policies shall extend insurance to cover
Tenant’s contractual obligations under this Agreement.
ii. Minimum Requirements. City’s insurance requirements are minimum
requirements, and Tenant is responsible to obtain adequate insurance coverage as Tenant may
determine. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, Tenant assumes all risk
under this Agreement (including, but not limited to, business interruption claims) whether or not
insured.
iii. Waiver of Subrogation. Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this
Agreement, each of the parties hereby waives any rights of subrogation it may have against the
other party for loss or damage from any risk that is covered by insurance (including, but not
limited to, claims for business interruption). Each of the parties shall obtain a clause or
endorsement providing for such waiver of subrogation in any policies of insurance required
under this Agreement.
iv. Terms Subject to Change. City, in its sole and absolute discretion, reserves
the right to review and adjust at any time Tenant’s required insurance limits, types of coverage,
and any other terms applicable to insurance to reasonably insure against any risk associated
with this Agreement or Tenant’s use, occupancy, or operations at the Airport. Among other
things, City may review any or all insurance coverage on a periodic basis and in connection with
any specific activity or event associated with the Airport or proposed by Tenant.
v. Stopping Operations. Among City’s remedies, if at any time Tenant’s
insurance coverage is not in effect as required herein, City may (but is not required to) stop all
or any portion of Tenant’s operations without liability to City until Tenant fully restores such
coverage.
E. Performance Security. City reserves the right to require a performance security in a
form and amount acceptable to City upon any material default by Tenant under this Agreement.
7.
Hazardous Materials. Tenant shall not cause or permit any Hazardous Materials to be
used, produced, stored, transported, brought upon, or released on , under, or about the
premises or the Airport by Tenant or Tenant’s Associates in violation of applicable
Environmental Laws. Tenant is responsible for any such violation as provided by Section 6.A. of
this Agreement. Tenant agrees that in the event of a release or threat of release of any
Hazardous Material by Tenant or Tenant’s Associates at the Airport, Tenant shall provide City
with prompt notice of the same. Tenant shall respond to any such release or threat of release in
accordance with applicable Laws and Regulations.
8.

Assignment and Subleasing

A. Assignment. Tenant shall not assign any of its rights under this Agreement,
including, but not limited to, rights in the Tenant Improvements, (whether such assignment is
voluntary or involuntary, by merger, consolidation, dissolution, change in control, or any other
9

Page 48 of 119

manner), shall not encumber any such rights or record this Agreement (or any document or
interest related thereto) and shall not delegate any performance under this Agreement, except
with prior written consent of City to any of the same. City will not unreasonably withhold written
consent to an assignment of this Agreement.
B. Subleasing. With prior written consent of City, Tenant shall have the right to
sublease portions of the Premises and Tenant Improvements only for the purposes specified in
this Agreement or to store an aircraft. City shall have the right to approve any sublease tenant
and sublease agreement. Tenant shall impose on any approved sublease tenant the same
terms set forth in this Agreement to provide for the rights and protections afforded to City.
Tenant shall reserve the right to amend any sublease to conform to the requirements of this
Agreement, and any sublease shall be consistent with and subordinate to this Agreement as it is
amended from time to time. Any sublease shall include an agreement that the sublease will
attorn to and pay rent to City if Tenant ceases to be a party to this Agreement. Tenant shall
provide to City a copy of any sublease executed by Tenant. No sublease shall relieve Tenant of
any obligations under this Agreement.
9.

Damage, Destruction, and Condemnation.

A. Damage or Destruction of Premises. If any portion of the Premises or the Tenant
Improvements is damaged in any manner, Tenant shall promptly remove from the Airport all
debris and cause repairs to be made to restore the same to an orderly and safe condition. All
work shall be performed in accordance with plans and specifications that are approved by City
as being consistent or better that the original improvements, and Tenant shall follow City’s
policies and procedures regarding obtaining building permits as necessary. Tenant shall apply
all proceeds that are made available from Tenant’s insurance policies (or those of any
subtenant or assignee) to performing such work. If City performs such work pursuant to Section
10.B, such insurance proceeds shall be paid to City. If the Premises or Tenant Improvements
are tenantable despite such damage, Tenant shall not receive any abatement of Tenant’s rent
obligations. To the extent that any portion is rendered untenantable by such damage in light of
the purposes of this Agreement (as determined by City in its sole discretion), rent shall continue
if Tenant has business interruption insurance, or if Tenant does not have such insurance, City
shall abate Tenant’s rent proportionately until repairs have been substantially completed (as
determined by City in its sole discretion).
B. Condemnation. In the event of any condemnation proceeding in which all or any
part of the Premises is taken (by a condemnor other than the City), all compensation from such
proceeding shall be paid to City, except that Tenant may pursue a claim against the condemnor
for the value of the Tenant Improvements and Tenant’s leasehold interest and any subtenants
may pursue a claim against the condemnor for the value of their subtenancy interests. In the
event of a partial taking, City shall reduce the ground rent payable by Tenant on a pro rata basis
for portions of the premises so taken. If City determines in its sole discretion that all or a
material portion of the premises will be (or has been) rendered untenantable as a result of such
taking, City may terminate this Agreement by giving Tenant a written notice of termination, and
this Agreement shall terminate at time specified in the notice (which shall not be less than sixty
(60) days after the date of such notice).
10.

Default

A. Tenant’s Default. Each of the following events shall constitute a default or breach of
this Agreement by the Tenant. (i) Tenant fails to timely pay any installment of rent; (ii) Tenant
10

Page 49 of 119

violates any requirement under this Agreement (including, but not limited to, abandonment of
the Premises) and fails to cure the same within sixty (60) days after written notice thereof by
City to Tenant; (iii) Tenant assigns or encumbers any right in this Agreement, delegates any
performance hereunder, or subleases any part of the Premises (except as expressly permitted
in this Agreement); (iv) Tenant files a petition in bankruptcy, becomes insolvent, or has a
petition filed against Tenant in bankruptcy, insolvency, or for reorganization or appointment of a
receiver or trustee which is not dismissed within sixty (60) days; (v) Tenant petitions for or
enters into an arrangement for the benefit of creditors, or suffers this Agreement to become
subject to a writ of execution and such writ is not released within thirty (30) days; or (vi) Tenant
defaults in constructing a Tenant Improvement as provided for in this Agreement.
B. Remedies. Upon default by Tenant under this Agreement, City may (at any time)
pursue any or all remedies available to City, including, but not limited to, the following: (i)
perform in Tenant’s stead any obligation that Tenant has failed to perform, and Tenant shall
promptly pay to City all costs incurred by City for such performance; (ii) terminate Tenants rights
under this Agreement upon delivering a written notice of termination; and (iii) re-enter and take
possession of the Premises by any lawful means (with or without terminating this Agreement).
Tenant shall pay all costs and damages arising out of Tenant’s default, including, but not limited
to, the cost of recovering possession of the Premises, the cost of improving and re-letting the
Premises, and any attorney fees and costs. Notwithstanding any termination or re-entry, Tenant
shall remain liable to pay the rent required under this Agreement for the remaining term of this
Agreement, and Tenant shall pay City on demand for any deficiency in the same. No action by
City or City’s Associates shall be construed as an election by City to terminate this Agreement
or accept any surrender of the Premises unless City provides Tenant with a written notice
expressly stating that City has terminated this Agreement or accepted a surrender of the
Premises. Following a default by Tenant under this Agreement, City shall exercise commercially
reasonable, good faith efforts to mitigate its damages as required by applicable Utah law.
C. Default by City. City shall not be in default under this Agreement unless City fails to
perform an obligation required of City under this Agreement within thirty (30) days after written
notice by Tenant to City. If the nature of City’s obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days
are reasonably required for performance or cure, City shall not be in default if City commences
performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to
completion. In no event may Tenant terminate this Agreement or withhold the payment of rent or
other charges provided for in this Agreement as a result of City’s default.
D. Survival. The provisions of this Section 10 and the remedies and rights provided in
Section 6 shall survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement.
11.

Expiration or Termination

A. Tenant’s First Right of Refusal. If the City elects to re-let the Premises upon the
expiration of this Agreement, and if the Tenant is in compliance with the terms of this
Agreement, the Tenant shall have the first right of refusal to enter into a new lease of the
Premises upon the terms and conditions as the City Council at the time may require. No sooner
than 180 days and no later than 30 days before the end of the term of this Agreement, Tenant
shall notify City in writing that Tenant desires to exercise its right of first refusal under this
paragraph, after which the Tenant’s right of first refusal shall expire. Tenant’s refusal to enter
into a new lease upon the terms and conditions required by the City Council at the time shall
also result in the expiration of Tenant’s right of first refusal.
11

Page 50 of 119

B. Disposition of Tenant Improvements. Upon the termination of this Agreement
before or on the expiration date, Tenant shall do one of the following at the option of City: (1)
enter into a new lease to relet the Premises pursuant to Tenant’s right of first refusal as set out
in Section 11.A.; (2) surrender the Tenant Improvements to City if City has determined to accept
the Tenant Improvements, with Tenant’s rights, title, and interests in the Tenants Improvements
being deemed transferred to the City upon the City accepting the same; or (3) remove all
Tenant Improvements from the Premises and Airport at Tenant’s sole expense in a manner
acceptable to City (and the obligations of section 6.A. shall apply to such removal). If Tenant
fails to remove any Tenant Improvements under subsection (4), City may do so in any manner
acceptable to City pursuant to Section 10.B.
C. Surrender of Premises. Unless the Premises is relet to Tenant prior to the
expiration of this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.A., upon any expiration or termination of
this Agreement, Tenant, at Tenant’s sole cost, shall (i) promptly and peaceably surrender to City
the Premises (and any Tenant Improvements accepted by the City pursuant to Section 11.B)
“broom clean” and in good order and condition, excepting reasonable wear and tear; (ii) repair in
a good and workmanlike manner any damage to the Premises or the Airport that arises from or
relates to Tenant’s use, occupancy, or operations under this Agreement (including, but not
limited to, while removing any property upon expiration or termination); (iii) deliver to City all
keys and access credentials relating to the Airport; (iv) perform Tenant’s environmental
obligations as provided in Section 7; and (v) remove all movable personal property and trade
fixtures (including signage) that are not owned by City, (except that Tenant must obtain City’s
prior written consent to remove any such property if Tenant is in default under this Agreement or
if such removal may impair the structure of any building). Upon any expiration or termination of
this Agreement (which includes, but is not limited to, termination for abandonment of the
Premises), all property that Tenant leaves on the Premises shall conclusively be deemed to
have been abandoned and may be appropriated, sold, stored, destroyed, or otherwise disposed
of by City without notice to, and without any obligation to account to, Tenant or any other person
(except that Tenant Improvements shall be as provided in Section 11.B). Tenant shall pay to
City all expenses incurred in connection with the disposition of such property in excess of any
amount received by City from such disposition. Tenant shall not be released from Tenant’s
obligations under this Agreement in connection with surrender of the Premises until City has
inspected the Premises and delivered to Tenant a written acceptance of such surrender.
D. Holding Over. If Tenant remains in possession of the Premises after any expiration
or termination of this Agreement, such occupancy shall not waive any default under this
Agreement and City may terminate such occupancy as a tenancy at will in accordance with
Utah Law. During such occupancy, Tenant shall comply will all provisions of this Agreement that
are applicable to an at-will-tenancy, and Tenant shall pay the following rent: ground rent at the
highest rate then charged at the Airport and rent for the Tenant Improvements at fair market
value based on City’s survey of rent for similarly situated facilities at the Airport and at other
western airports.
E. Survival. The provisions of this Section 11 shall survive any expiration or termination
of this Agreement.
12.

General Provisions

A. No Exclusive Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to grant to
Tenant any exclusive right or privilege for the conduct of any activity on the Airport (except to
lease the Premises for Tenant’s exclusive use as provided herein).
12

Page 51 of 119

B. Agreement Preserves City’s Compliance. This Agreement shall be interpreted to
preserve City’s rights and powers to comply with City’s Federal and other governmental
obligations.
C. Subordination to City’s Government Commitments. This Agreement is
subordinate to the provisions of any agreement between City and the United States or other
governmental authority (regardless of when made) that affects the Airport, including, but not
limited to, agreements governing the expenditure of Federal funds for Airport Improvements. In
the event that the Federal Aviation Administration or other governmental authority requires any
modification to this Agreement as a condition of City entering any agreement or participating in
any program applicable to the Airport, Tenant agrees to consent to any such modification. If a
governmental authority determines that any act or omission of Tenant or Tenant’s Associates
has caused or will cause City to be non-compliant with any of City’s government commitments,
Tenant shall immediately take such actions that may be necessary to preserve City’s
compliance with the same.
D. Subordination to Financing and Matters of Record. This Agreement is subordinate
to the provisions of any agreements or indentures entered by City (regardless of when entered)
in connection with any debt financing applicable to the Airport and is subordinate to any matter
of record affecting the real property of the Airport.
E. Force Majeure. No act or event, whether foreseen or unforeseen, shall operate to
excuse Tenant from the prompt payment of rent or any other amounts required to be paid under
this Agreement. If City (or Tenant in connection with obligations other than payment obligations)
is delayed or hindered in any performance under this Agreement by a force majeure event, such
performance shall be excused to the extent so delayed or hindered during the time when such
force majeure event is in effect, and such performance shall promptly occur or resume
thereafter at the expense of the party so delayed or hindered. A “force majeure event” is an act
or event, whether foreseen or unforeseen, that prevents a party in whole or in part from
performing as provided in this Agreement, that is beyond the reasonable control of and not the
fault of such party, and such party has been unable to avoid or overcome by exercising due
diligence, and may include, but is not limited to, acts of nature, war, riots, strikes, accidents, fire,
and changes in law.
F. Rights and Remedies. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the rights
and remedies set forth in this Agreement are not intended to be exhaustive and the exercise by
either party of any right or remedy does not preclude the exercise of any other rights or
remedies that may now or subsequently exist.
G. Attorneys Fees. If any action is brought to recover any rent or other amount under
this Agreement because of any default under this Agreement, to enforce or interpret any of the
provisions of this Agreement, or for the recovery of possession of the Premises, the party
prevailing in such action shall be entitled to recovery from the other party(s) reasonable
attorneys fees, court costs, the fees of experts and other professionals, and other costs arising
from such action (including those arising from any appeal), the amount of which shall be fixed
by the court and made a part of any judgment rendered. Tenant shall be responsible for all
expenses, including but not limited to, attorney fees incurred by the City in any case or
proceeding involving the Tenant or any permitted assignee of Tenant under or related to any
bankruptcy or insolvency law. The provisions of this Section 12.G. shall survive any expiration
or termination of this Agreement.
13

Page 52 of 119

H. Governing Law, Venue, and Waiver of Jury Trial. This Agreement and the
respective rights and obligations of the parties shall be governed by, interpreted, and enforced
in accordance with the Laws of the State of Utah. Venue for any action arising out of or related

long as one of such courts shall have subject matter jurisdiction over such action or proceeding,
and each of the parties hereby irrevocable consents to the jurisdiction of the same and of the
appropriate appellate courts there from. Process in any such action may be served on any party
anywhere in the world. CITY AND TENANT EACH KNOWINGLY, VOLUNTARILY, AND
INTENTIONALLY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING,
OR COUNTERCLAIM BROUGHT BY EITHER OF THEM AGAINST THE OTHER FOR ALL
MATTERS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS LEASE OR ANY USE, OCCUPANCY,
OR OPERATIONS AT THE PREMISES OR THE AIRPORT. The provisions of this Section
12.H. shall survive any expiration or termination of this Agreement.
I. Amendments and Waivers. No amendment to this Agreement shall be binding on
City or Tenant unless reduced to writing and signed by both parties. No provision of this
Agreement may be waived, except pursuant to a writing executed by the party against whom
the waiver is sought to be enforced.
J. Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid, illegal, or
unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect if
both the economic and legal substance of the transactions that this Agreement contemplates
are not affected in any manner materially adverse to any part. If any provision of this Agreement
is held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to modify this
Agreement to fulfill as closely as possible the original intents and purposes of this Agreement.
K. Merger. This Agreement constitutes the final, complete, and exclusive agreement
between the parties on the matters contained in this Agreement. All prior and contemporaneous
negotiations and agreements between the parties on the matters contained in this Agreement
are expressly merged into and superseded by this Agreement. In entering into this Agreement,
neither party has relied on any statement, representation, warranty, now agreement of the other
party except for those expressly contained in this Agreement. Any proposal materials or exhibits
submitted by Tenant in response to a solicitation by City, to the extent accepted by City, shall
also be incorporated in this Agreement.
L. Confidentiality. Tenant acknowledges that City is subject to legal requirements
regarding the public disclosure of records. Tenant shall comply with such laws in connection
with making any request that City maintain a record confidentially, and if Tenant complies with
the same, Tenant shall have the right to defend any such request for confidentiality at Tenant’s
expense.

venture, employment, or agency relationship between the parties. Nothing in this Agreement
shall confer upon any other person or entity any right, benefit, or remedy of any nature.

STAFF COMMENTS
Agenda Date: 9/17/2026
Item: Discussion and possible recommendation of approval regarding the Hurricane City Pole
Attachment License Agreement.
Discussion: This will be a complete overhaul of the pole attachment agreement. Hurricane
City currently has an agreement that has been included with the packet. The new document
contains the agreement and several appendices. The agreement will be similar to St. George
and Washington City and has been reviewed by Dayton Hall. This agreement will last for 5
years and will automatically renew twice. Once at the end of the first five years and a second
time after 10 years. Section 3.11 was also added to allow the fees and charges to be updated
by resolution of the Hurricane City Council to allow the City to adjust costs as needed
throughout the duration of the contract.
The first appendix is the Pole Attachment Fees and Penalties. This document contains a
breakdown of all the associated fees and penalties both annual and recurring. Currently the
Licensees are being charged $10.00 per pole attachment. This will be increased to $20.00 per
attachment annually. This will make us comparable to neighboring cities. Additional fees that
will be included is a $50.00 annual fee for wire storage on Poles. A non-recurring fee of
$225.00 for permit application fee of (1-20) poles and riser fee of $50.00. There will also be
penalties for unauthorized attachments and failure to transfer, abandon, or remove facilities.
Appendix B outlines the Pole Attachment Permit Application Process. Currently there is not a
documented process. This agreement will require a review process of the submitted
application and that all necessary fees are paid before any communication infrastructure can
be installed.
Appendix C is the Application for Pole Attachment Permit. This will require the Licensee to
give a description of the work they are requesting and additional information such as number
of new pole attachments, if they are removing or replacing equipment, if guying is required,
etc.
Appendix D is the Specifications for Licensee’s Attachments to City Poles. This outlines how
they will be required to attach to the City’s power poles. Hurricane City does not currently have
an attachment standard. This will all be new and will allow the power department to ensure
that telecommunications infrastructure is installed properly.
Appendix E is the Distribution Line Minimum Design Review Information and Worksheet. This
outlines the minimum conditions to calculate pole strength and has a worksheet for the
Licensee to fill out any design information. The City may direct that certain attachments do not
require the submission of the Design Review Information.
Appendix F is a Field Drawing and Data Summary Sheet Instructions sheet.
Appendix G is the Annual Reporting Form for Attachments. This document will be required to
be filled out by February 1st of each year. It will detail any additional attachments, risers, etc. or

Page 56 of 119

any removals. This will be compared to the last years total and all attachment applications to
ensure that an accurate count is being recorded. This will determine how much each Licensee
will be invoiced in March.
Findings:
Recommendation: The Pole Attachment License Agreement was recommended for approval
unanimously by the Power Board on 9/9/2026.

Poles or to provide particular services.
Lawful Purpose and Use. Licensee’s Communications Facilities must at all
times serve a lawful purpose, and the use of such Facilities must comply
with all applicable federal, state, and local laws.
Forfeiture of City’s Rights. No Permit granted under this Agreement shall
extend, or be deemed to extend, to any of City’s Poles, to the extent that
Licensee’s Attachment would result in a forfeiture of City’s rights. Any Permit
that would result in forfeiture of City’s rights shall be deemed invalid as of the
date that City granted it. Further, if any of Licensee’s existing
Communications Facilities, whether installed pursuant to a valid Permit or
not, would cause such forfeiture, Licensee shall promptly remove its
Facilities upon receipt of written notice from City. If Licensee does not
remove its Communications Facilities in question within thirty (30) days of
receiving written notice from City, City may at its option perform such
removal at Licensee’s expense. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Licensee
shall have the right to contest any such forfeiture before any of its rights are
terminated, provided that Licensee shall indemnify City for liability, costs,
and expenses, including reasonable attorney’s fees, that may accrue during
Licensee’s challenge.

Facilities is necessary, require Licensee to perform such transfer at
Licensee’s expense within ninety (90) calendar days after receiving notice
from City. If Licensee fails to transfer its Facilities within ninety (90) calendar
days after receiving such notice from City, City shall have the right to transfer
Licensee’s Facilities using its personnel and/or contractors. The costs of
such transfers shall be as specified under Article 9. City shall not be liable for
damage to Licensee’s Facilities except to the extent provided in Paragraph
16.1. The written advance notification requirement of this Paragraph shall not
apply in emergency situations. In emergency situations, City shall provide
such advance notice as is practical, given the urgency of the particular
situation. City shall then provide written notice of any such actions taken
within ten (10) days following the occurrence. Irrespective of who owns
Facilities that are Overlashed on to Licensee’s Attachments, Licensee is
responsible for the transfer of such Facilities and the costs of doing so.
Temporary Transfers. City will notify Licensee of any temporary transfers of
Licensee’s communication facilities if pole replacement or any other
overhead City work is required. Licensee will take full responsibility for work
and the safety of the public until the transfer has been completed.

ARTICLE 9 – MODIFICATION AND/OR REPLACEMENTS
9.1.

Licensee’s Action Requiring Modification/Replacement. If any Pole to
which Licensee desires to make Attachment(s) is unable to support or

Hurricane City
Pole Attachment Agreement

18

Page 75 of 119

accommodate the additional facilities in accordance with all Applicable
Standards, City will notify Licensee of the necessary Make-Ready Work, and
associated costs, to provide adequate Pole space, including, but not limited
to, replacement of the Pole and/or rearrangement or transfer of City’s
Facilities, as well as the facilities of other Attaching Entities. Licensee shall
be responsible for separately entering into an agreement with other Attaching
Entities concerning the allocation of costs for the relocation or
rearrangement of such entities existing Attachments. If Licensee elects to go
forward with the necessary changes, Licensee shall pay to City the actual
cost of the Make-Ready Work, performed by City, in accordance with
Paragraph 3.6. City, in its discretion, may require advance payment. Licensee
shall also be responsible for obtaining, and furnishing to City before the
commencement of any Make-Ready Work, agreements between Licensee
and the other Attaching Entities (including Overlashers) concerning the
relocation or rearrangement of their Attachments and the costs involved.
9.2.
Treatment of Multiple Requests for Same Pole. If City receives Permit
Applications for the same Pole from two or more prospective Licensees
within sixty (60) calendar days of the initial request, and accommodating
their respective requests would require modification of the Pole or
replacement of the Pole, City will allocate among such Licensees the
applicable costs associated with such modification or replacement.
9.3.
Guying. The use of guying to accommodate Licensee’s Attachments shall be
provided by, and at the expense of, Licensee and to the satisfaction of City,
as specified in Appendix D. Licensee shall not attach its guy wires to City’s
anchors without prior written permission of City. If permission is granted,
charges may apply. All new guy anchors and hardware must be pre-approved
by the City and inspected after installation. Once this is completed, pole
attachments can begin.
9.4.
Allocation of Costs. The costs for any rearrangement or transfer of
Licensee’s Communications Facilities or the replacement of a Pole
(including any related costs for tree cutting or trimming required to clear the
new location of City’s cables or wires) shall be allocated to City and/or
Licensee and/or other Attaching Entity on the following basis:
9.4.1.
If the City intends to modify or replace a Pole solely for its own system
upgrade or maintenance requirements, it shall be responsible for the
costs related to the modification/replacement of the Pole. Licensee
shall be responsible for costs associated with the rearrangement or
Hurricane City
Pole Attachment Agreement

19

Page 76 of 119

transfer of Licensee’s Communications Facilities to the new poles or
system configuration. Prior to making any such modification or
replacement, City shall provide Licensee written notification of its intent
in order to provide Licensee a reasonable opportunity to modify or add
to its existing Attachment. Should the Licensee decide to do so, it must
seek City’s written permission in accordance with this Agreement. If
Licensee elects to add to or modify its Communications Facilities,
Licensee shall pay its fair share of the costs incurred by City in making
the space on the Poles accessible to Licensee.
9.4.2.
If the modification or replacement of a Pole is necessitated by the
requirements of Licensee, Licensee shall be responsible for all costs
caused by the modification or replacement of the Pole as well as the
costs associated with the transfer or rearrangement of any other
Attaching Entity’s Communications Facilities. At the time Licensee
submits a Permit Application to City, Licensee shall submit evidence, in
writing, that it has made arrangements to reimburse all affected
Attaching Entities for their costs caused by the transfer or
rearrangement of their Facilities. City shall not be obligated in any way
to enforce or administer Licensee’s responsibility for the costs
associated with the transfer or rearrangement of another Attaching
Entity’s Facilities pursuant to this Paragraph 9.4.2.
9.4.3.
If the modification or the replacement of a Pole is the result of an
additional Attachment or the modification of an existing Attachment
sought by an Attaching Entity other than City or Licensee, the Attaching
Entity requesting the additional or modified Attachment shall bear the
entire cost of the modification or replacement, as well as the costs for
rearranging or transferring Licensee’s Communications Facilities.
Licensee shall cooperate with such third-party Attaching Entity to
determine the costs of moving Licensee’s facilities.
9.4.4.
If the Pole must be modified or replaced for reasons unrelated to the
use of the Pole by Attaching Entities (e.g., storm, accident,
deterioration), City shall pay the costs of such modification or
replacement and Licensee shall pay the costs of rearranging or
transferring its Communications Facilities.
9.5.
City Not Required to Relocate. Nothing in this Agreement shall be
construed to require City to relocate its Attachments or to modify or replace
its Poles for the benefit of Licensee.

ARTICLE 10 – ABANDONMENT OR REMOVAL OF CITY
FACILTIES
10.1.

10.2.

Notice of Abandonment or Removal of City Facilities. If City desires at any
time to abandon, remove, or move underground any City Facilities to which
Licensee’s Communications Facilities are attached, it shall give Licensee
notice in writing to that effect at least sixty (60) calendar days prior to the
date on which it intends to abandon or remove such City’s Facilities. Notice
may be limited to thirty (30) calendar days if City is required to remove or
abandon its City Facilities as the result of the action of a third party and the
longer notice period is not practical. If, following the expiration of the 30-day
period, Licensee has not yet removed and/or transferred all of its
Communication Facilities and has not entered into an agreement to
purchase City’s Facilities, City shall have the right, but not the obligation to
remove Licensee’s Communications Facilities at Licensee’s expense. The
written advance notification requirement of this Paragraph shall not apply in
emergency situations. In emergency situations, City shall provide such
advance notice as is practical, given the urgency of the particular situation.
Underground Relocation. If City moves any portion of its aerial system
underground, Licensee shall remove its Communications Facilities from any
affected Poles within sixty (60) calendar days of receipt of notice from City
and must either relocate its affected Facilities underground with City or find
other means to accommodate its Facilities. If Licensee does not remove its
Attachments within sixty (60) days, City shall have the right to remove or
transfer Licensee’s Communications Facilities at Licensee’s expense.
Licensee’s failure to remove its Facilities as required under this Paragraph
10.2 shall subject Licensee to the penalty provisions of Appendix A, item 5.

ARTICLE 11 – REMOVAL OF LICENSEE’S FACILITIES
11.1.

Removal on Expiration/Termination. At the expiration or other termination
of this License Agreement or individual Permit(s), Licensee shall remove its
Communications Facilities from the affected Poles at its own expense. If
Licensee fails to remove such Facilities within sixty (60) calendar days of
expiration or termination or some greater period as allowed by City, City shall

Hurricane City
Pole Attachment Agreement

21

Page 78 of 119

have the right, but not the obligation, to remove or transfer such Facilities at
Licensee’s expense.

ARTICLE 12 – TERMINATION OF PERMIT
12.1.

12.2.

Automatic Termination of Permit. Any Permit issued pursuant to this
Agreement shall automatically terminate when Licensee ceases to have
authority to construct and operate its Communications Facilities on public or
private property at the location of the particular Pole(s) covered by the
Permit.
Surrender of Permit. Licensee may at any time surrender any Permit for
Attachment(s) and remove its Communications Facilities from the affected
Pole(s), provided, however, that before commencing any such removal,
Licensee must obtain City’s written approval of Licensee’s plans for removal,
including the name of the person or entity performing such work and the
date(s) and time(s) during which such work will be completed. All such work
is subject to insurance requirements of Article 18. No refund of any fees or
costs will be made upon removal. If Licensee surrenders such Permit
pursuant to the provisions of this Article, but fails to remove its Attachments
from City’s Facilities within thirty (30) calendar days, City shall have the right,
but not the obligation, to remove or transfer Licensee’s Attachments at
Licensee’s expense.

ARTICLE 13 – INSPECTION OF LICENSEE’S FACILITIES
13.1.

13.2.

13.3.

Inspections. City may conduct an inventory and inspection of Attachments
at any time. Within thirty (30) calendar days of receiving written notice from
City, Licensee shall correct all Attachments that City identifies as being out
of compliance with Applicable Standards. If City finds that five percent (5%)
or more of Licensee’s Attachments are either in non-compliance or not
permitted, Licensee shall pay its pro rata share of the costs of the inspection.
Notice. City will give Licensee reasonable advance written notice of such
inspections, except in those instances in which safety considerations justify
the need for such inspection without delay.
No Liability. Inspections performed under this Article 13, or the failure to do
so, shall not operate to impose upon the City any liability of any kind

Hurricane City
Pole Attachment Agreement

22

13.4.

13.5.

whatsoever or to relieve the Licensee of any responsibility, obligations, or
liability, whether assumed under this Agreement or otherwise existing.
Attachment Records. Notwithstanding the above inspection provisions,
Licensee shall furnish to City annually an up-to-date electronic map
depicting the locations of its Attachments, in a format specified by City.
Pole Testing. Pole testing on City owned poles will only be performed by the
City. No other pole testing shall be performed by Licensee or Licensee’s
contracted testing company. City will provide individual pole testing results
upon Licensee’s request.

ARTICLE 14 – UNAUTHORIZED OCCUPANCY OR
ACCESS
14.1.

Penalty Fee. If any of Licensee’s Attachments are found occupying any Pole
for which no Permit has been issued, City, without prejudice to its other
rights or remedies under this Agreement, may assess an Unauthorized
Access Penalty Fee, as specified in Appendix A, Item 6. If Licensee fails to
pay such Fee within thirty (30) calendar days of receiving notification of it,
City shall have the right, but not the obligation, to remove such
Communications Facilities at Licensee’s expense.
To avoid penalty fees and removal, Licensee will be required to submit an
application for attachment, pay all application fees, and have all inspections
passed. Permit to attach may then be issued by the City if the application is
approved.

14.2.

No Ratification of Unauthorized Use. No act or failure to act by City with
regard to any unauthorized use shall be deemed as ratification of the
unauthorized use. Unless the parties agree otherwise, a Permit for a
previously unauthorized Attachment shall not operate retroactively or
constitute a waiver by City of any of its rights or privileges under this
Agreement or otherwise, and Licensee shall remain subject to all obligations
and liabilities arising out of or relating to its unauthorized use.

ARTICLE 15 – REPORTING REQUIREMENTS
At the time that Licensee pays its annual Attachment Fee, Licensee shall also provide the
following information to City, using the reporting form contained in Appendix G:

Licensee for the physical repair of facilities damaged by the gross negligence
or willful misconduct of City; provided, however, that the aggregate liability of
City to Licensee, in any fiscal year, for any fines, penalties, claims, damages,

amount of the claim. If the claim relates to an action, suit, or proceeding
filed by a third party against City, City shall give the notice to Licensee
no later than sixty (60) calendar days after City receives written notice of
the action, suit, or proceeding.
16.3.2.
City’s failure to give the required notice will not relieve Licensee from its
obligation to indemnify City unless, and only to the extent, that Licensee
is materially prejudiced by such failure.
16.3.3.
Licensee will have the right at any time, by notice to City, to participate
in or assume control of, the defense of the claim with counsel of its
choice, which counsel must be reasonably acceptable to City. City

respect to the claim.
Environmental Hazards. Licensee represents and warrants that its use of
City’s Poles will not generate any Hazardous Substances, that it will not store

representatives, employees, agents, and contractors against any and all
liability, costs, damages, fines, taxes, special charges by others, penalties,

other costs and expenses of litigation) arising from or due to the release,
threatened release, storage, or discovery of any Hazardous Substances on,
under, or adjacent to City’s Poles attributable to Licensee’s use of City’s
Poles.

shall be construed, to be a waiver for any purpose by the City of any
applicable state limits on municipal liability or governmental immunity. No
indemnification provision contained in this Agreement under which Licensee
indemnifies City shall be construed in any way to limit any other
indemnification provision contained in this Agreement.
If City brings a successful action in a court of competent jurisdiction to

GENERAL PREFACE
Hurricane City has adopted these Standards and Specifications to establish
minimum requirements for the design, installation, operation, and maintenance of
communication facilities attached to City-owned joint utility poles. All Attachments
shall be made in accordance with the Applicable Standards, as defined in paragraph
1.2 of this agreement. These standards are required to be used by all persons
engaged in the design, installation, maintenance, or operation of overhead
communications systems within Hurricane City limits. These standards establish
minimum requirements. Compliance with these standards does not relieve the
permit holder from complying with applicable federal, state, or local laws, codes, or
regulations. Where these Standards conflict with applicable federal, state, or local
laws, codes, or regulations, the more restrictive requirement shall govern.
If a Contractor needs to have Hurricane City Power, which may be referred to as
HCP throughout this document, provide access to electrical facilities, they are
required to set up an appointment to have HCP meet them at the job site.
All costs for overhead communications systems are the responsibility of the service
provider unless otherwise stated in these Standards and Specifications.
In consultation with the Hurricane City Power Board, HCP may make minor
adjustments to these standards at any time to address unique or unusual
circumstances or to align with updated industry standards. Within 30 days of
making such adjustments to these standards, HCP shall submit a report to the
Hurricane City Council detailing all changes to these standards.

conductor for both phase and neutral. If a larger conductor size exists, the larger size
shall be used in the calculations.
2. All three-phase lines shall be assumed to have been to 336 ACSR Merlin conductors for
three (3) phases and neutral. If existing conductors are larger than 336 ACSR, the larger
size shall be used in the calculations.
3. All pole lines shall assume a secondary/service conductor, installed from pole to pole,
of #4/0 AWG triplex cable, with ACSR messenger.
4. For pole strength calculations, all poles shall be as they actually exist, or be considered
Class 4 for calculation. If pole date is not available.
5. All line angles or dead ends shall be guyed and anchored. Transverse pole strength shall
not be assigned to attaching pole users for line angles, i.e., pole should be viewed as
being void of other cables, conductors, wires, or guys and considering only the
applicant’s wires/cables for guying calculations.
6. Points of attachment shall be as they actually exist on the poles.

7. For a City-approved joint use of anchors, the Licensee shall utilize guy insulators in its
guys.
8. Licensee shall comply with any NESC and/or City safety factors, whichever are more
conservative, in their designs. The engineer for the Permit applicant shall provide for
each application the following confirmations:
8.1. That design is in accordance with pole strength requirements of the NESC, taking
into account the effects of Utilities Facilities and other attaching entities’ facilities
that exist on the poles, without regard to the condition of the existing facilities.
9. Sidewalk guys are not allowed unless pre-approved by the City.
10. Other Site/Project specific requirements.
