• Reduction in cost structure
• Incumbent site acquisition vendors need paradigm shift
• Real Estate terms could delay deployment
• Operational consistency and tracking
• Maintenance
• Macro to small cell integration and hand-offs
Carrier Challenges to Small Cell Deployment
Site Acquisition • Reset expectations of Real Estate owners/managers • Create non-monetary trades • Focus on benefits of improved wireless services • Understand time/regulatory barriers to street
furniture/poles • Provide turnkey solutions • Solve coverage/capacity issues over larger
geographies • Use intermediary underlying agreements
Success Factors for Small Cell Deployment
Backhaul • Provide aggregation alternatives
• Reduces the impact of price compression • Provides overall reduction in cost
• Provide interconnect alternatives • Minimize new construction • Seek technical alternatives
• Tethered • Fiber, Coax. Copper
• Untethered (Microwave) • Licensed • Line of sight, near line of sight, non-line of sight • Unlicensed
Carrier Challenges to Small Cell Deployment
Randy Cobb, Partner
• My Experience Designing, Permitting, Building & Operating more than 20,000 Small Cells:
• Metricom-Will History Repeat Itself? • JPA’s-An early California Solution • Cingular AT&T merger-flushing out “Cowboy
Solutions” without proper permits • City of Davis CA ROW vs Public Resistance
Will Dodge, Attorney
Site Acquisition in the Real World
• Due Diligence Phase • Entry & Testing Agreement • Property Ownership Information – Title Review • Structure Ownership Information • Environmental Site Assessment (Phase I) • Age of Structure Affidavit – May soon be obsolete
Site Acquisition in the Real World
• Real Estate: Considerations • License versus lease agreement for small cell • Generally non-exclusive, can be exclusive
– See T-Mo vs. Crow (D. Ariz. 2009) • Need broad wording: “install, maintain, operate,
repair, replace, modify, change, upgrade, remove”
• Never perpetual but can be long term / assignable / non-revocable based on scope of investment.
Site Acquisition in the Real World • Real Estate: License Agreement – Planning • Clear delineation of licensed space on structure • Clear and simple payment terms • Access to property: conditions / limitations • Responsibility for structure maintenance • Replacement / relocation rights: pole position • Aesthetic conditions: capture now or pay later • Responsibility for r/e and personal prop taxes • Insurance allocation • The “Easy Out”: enforceability
Site Acquisition in the Real World • Permitting: The Key To Success • Dimensional “fast track” statutes
expedite process for smaller configurations: worth every penny spent on Govt Affairs.
• Examples: 30 VSA 248a in Vermont, SB101 in New Hampshire
• Counter-examples: Huntington Beach v. Cal PUC (2013), Crown Castle v. Greenburgh NY (2013)
