JEFFERSON COUNTY
BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
CONSENT AGENDA REQUEST
TO: Board of County Commissioners
FROM: Philip Morley, County Administrator
DATE: November 24, 2014
RE: Port Hadlock Tower License, licensing JeffCom to operate and access
communications equipment on the County's Port Hadlock Tower, for a term of 20
years from execution; $12,000 /year.
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: This is one of five agreements between Jefferson County and
JeffCom. Staff recommends that the Board of County Commissioners execute all five
Agreements. These include:
Port Hadlock License and Use Agreement for JeffCom, providing JeffCom office
space at the County Jail annex in Port Hadlock, term 10/1/'12-12/3 l/' 15;
plus four reciprocal agreements to allow one another to operate communications equipment on
each other's tower(s):
• Port Hadlock Tower License, licensing JeffCom to operate and access communications
equipment on the County's Port Hadlock Tower, for a term of 20 years from execution;
• Port Townsend Tower Sublicense; licensing the County to operate and access
communications equipment on JeffCom's Tower at Fire Station 16 in Port Townsend, for
a term of 20 years from execution;
• Coyle Road Real Property License, selling to JeffCom the County's interest in the
tower on Coyle Road, and licensing JeffCom to use property the County owns or
controls, for a term of 50 years from execution;
• Coyle Road Tower and Building Sublicense, licensing the County to operate and
access communications equipment on the Coyle Tower once it is owned by JeffCom, for
a term of 50 years from execution.
ANALYSIS: These five agreements are the product of extensive negotiation between JeffCom
and the County starting in 2012. From 2012 until now, the Board of County Commissioners has
been periodically consulted with and provided guidance for the negotiations. Most recently the
Board reviewed all five agreements at its meeting on November 3, 2014. JeffCom has approved
the agreements, and they have passed county risk and legal reviews.

repairs by the County to the building, the remaining balance of which would be returned to
JeffCom should JeffCom quit use of the facility and capital funds remain unspent after 10 years
from then.
** The license fees for all tower agreements index at 3% /year starting the second year, with a net
cumulative cost of $0 to both the County and JeffCom for the group of four tower agreements.
