THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Council approved a third amendment to the lease with Cellco Partnership d/b/a Verizon Wireless for 2,500 sq ft at the Ground Air Transmitter site in York County, extending the term to Oct 31, 2031 and allowing a 1,000 sq ft expansion. Rent starts at $36,000/year with 3% annual increases plus a one-time $30,000 payment.
This confirms Verizon as the incumbent on this tower location for at least five more years. Tower service, RF engineering, and site maintenance vendors can pursue subcontract and expansion work, and competitors gain long-term intelligence on this site’s occupancy and rate structure.
Lease covers GAT site at 100 Tower Lane, York County; Verizon owns the tower and operates telecom equipment.

A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
