City Attorney
The City Council, on December 14, 1999, approved a Lease with GTE Wireless of the Pacific
for a portion of El Toyon Park. GTE will install antennae facilities on the leased premises.
GTE has complied with all prerequisites of the lease pertaining to insurance, with the exception
of providing proof of business interruption coverage, which is required by Section 21(f)(v) of the
Lease. In the attached letter, General Dynamics, of behalf of GTE, has requested waiver of this
requirement.
This Office agrees with GIE's rationale, and recommends that the subject insurance
requirement be waived.

Re: GTE Wireless of the Pacific Lease
El Toyon Park
Dear Mr. Eiser:
On behalf of GTE Wireless of the Pacific, Incorporated, please accept this request to amend the
current Lease Agreement for the El Toyon Park site to eliminate the requirements of paragraph
21 (f) (v), which deals with business interruption insurance. This provision is difficult to satisfy,
given the nature of GTE's existing insurance binders and may seem unnecessary in light of the
fact that GTE prepays its rent on an annual basis. We respectfully request the elimination of
this requirement from the Lease Agreement.
You have advised me that this request must be presented to the City Council and we request
that you proceed with due diligence.
If I may be of any assistance, please contact me at this office.
Sincerely,
General Dynamics -Worldwide Telecommunication Systems
