Councilmember Gonzales. Thank you. This council bill authorizes the Director of Finance Administrative Services to execute a license agreement with King County for its use of the radio transmitter site at the Maple Leaf Reservoir for the new regional Puget Sound Emergency Radio Network. As approved by the voters, this agreement will govern the Puget Sound Emergency Radio Networks use of the city's radio transmitter facility located in North Seattle, adjacent to Seattle Public Utilities, Maple Leaf Reservoir, FAA, US and King County have negotiated a license agreement which will govern Pearson's use of the Maple Leaf transmitter for a term of 25 years . I believe that the return for the city is about $30,000 a year. As a result of this licensing agreement, the Education, Equity and Governance Committee recommends the full council adopt this Council bill. Any comments?
