Tower & Antanna Replacement

Dear Ms. Woodward,
(On May 16, 2019, Sewer Maintenance was clearing sewer easements with a tracked shredding
‘machine that hit and destroyed guy wires holding up the 208' radio tower broadcasting for WNOO radio,
taking the station off the air. The City will need to get the tower replaced as quickly as possible in order to
prevent the station from losing ad revenue and their listening audiance, to whatever extent possible.
Currently WRD has found a wiling local contractor who is assessing the site withthe assistance
of Sewor Maintsnance and a geotechnical engineer on contract with the City. The contractar is working
up a quote and wa wil attach that to the requisition in Oracle as soon as possible,
WROD Is requesting authorization of @ Purchase Order to Centerine Communications not to
excond $300,000, for ne Tower & Antanna Replacement
Time is of the essence.
Sincerely,
Justin
