Summary: The license agreement with American Tower for the radio transmitting tower lease for KVHS was originally entered on 7/1/2005, with the initial term of five years and automatically renewing for three additional periods of five years each. Lease payments are monthly and escalate on a 4% increase on an annual basis. Fiscal year 2024-2025 monthly payments are scheduled at $2,422.85, for an annual cost of $29,074.20 plus any Common Area Maintenance (CAM) charges, such as repairs and utilities fees, expensed and billed annually on a pro-rata share basis. 2022-2023 CAM charges totaled $3,345.00 for our share of 11.3% expenses.
