The purpose of the lease is to design and install a neutral host Distributed Antenna System (DAS) for the base that consists of a central hub location which links, via fiber, a system of strategically placed outdoor antenna locations (or nodes) to provide carriers with coverage to specific areas within the base not adequately covered by existing macro-cell sites. Nodes will be, where possible, placed on street lights, utility poles or other approved existing vertical structures (i.e. Base Operations Building, Giant Voice). This notice is to solicit interest to lease land to be used for antenna space and support equipment to meet Peterson AFB cellular improvement requirements. Summary of the outgrant terms and conditions: Lease period will be for a term of five (5) years. Cost of Property lease will be at a minimum equal to fair market value. Grantee must meet all conditions in the attached lease template (Attachment 1). Lease will be at no cost to the United States Air Force. Grantee will be responsible for all administrative associated lease costs. Grantee will also be responsible for all costs associated with conducting a fair market value appraisal and preparation of an environmental baseline survey. Peterson AFB Cellular Improvement Requirements: To improve cellular coverage and capacity throughout the Peterson AFB geographic area by means of adding outdoor macro antenna sites, or a network of spatially separated antenna nodes, connected to a head end facility via fiber optic transport medium. The antennas/nodes will meet FAA height restrictions and will be obscured, or be designed to match the appearance of the surrounding areas to the maximum extent possible. The system will be a neutral host venue, owned by an FCC licensed wireless carrier. The system will be multi-carrier capable and able to accommodate up to 4 wireless carriers. The system will provide high capacity Long-Term Evolution (LTE) throughput to wireless cellular users. It will be designed to provide 4 WAY multiple input/multiple output (MIMO) LTE signal strength of ‑70dbm or better. The system will maximize usable voice and data coverage both outside and inside of base facilities. The system will be designed, constructed and operated at no cost to the United States Air Force, or Federal Government. The approved system will adhere to facility excellence standards for aesthetics and be capable of supporting future cellular technology upgrades without the need for additional construction. The provider will agree to allow up to 3 additional FCC licensed carriers to utilize the system to transmit and receive those carriers' signals on a not-for-profit basis. Costs to access the system will be passed on to other participating FCC licensed wireless carriers, without markup, on a proportional basis. Those costs shall be limited to the cost to design, construct, maintain, update and operate the system. The details of all equipment must be reviewed by the 21st Contracting Squadron, 21st Communications Squadron, 21st Civil Engineer Squadron and 21st Space Wing Safety.

At the completion of the lease, grantor has complete discretion in granting a renewal and can consider, by way of example and not by way of limitation, the past practices of grantee on the Installation, the timeliness of grantee's request for renewal relative to requests by other entities for similar leases and the changing communications requirements of the government. The Government requests interested parties submit a statement of interest and current capability to meet Peterson AFB Cellular Improvement Requirements as outlined above.
