Lease of Municipal Real Estate for Wireless Communications Facilities

The Town of Scituate, Massachusetts, is soliciting proposals to lease approximately 3,750 square feet of municipal land located at 800 Chief Justice Cushing Highway for the construction, operation, and maintenance of a 150-foot wireless communications monopole facility and associated infrastructure, including equipment pads, conduits, cables, and utility connections. The lease term is up to twenty years, with the goal of establishing a reliable telecommunications site on the back side of the Public Safety Complex. Proposals must be submitted as sealed hard copies by mail to the specified address no later than September 22, 2026, at 10:00 AM EST; electronic, faxed, or emailed submissions are not accepted. The evaluation of proposals will be based on the most advantageous value to the Town, primarily considering the proposed rental payments alongside other unspecified criteria, with no formal weights or scoring methodology disclosed. The estimated fair market value of the land is $5,000, serving as a benchmark for rent offers rather than a fixed contract value. The transaction is governed by Massachusetts General Laws Chapter 30B, Section 16, and no federal acquisition regulation clauses are included. All technical specifications, inspection standards, and detailed submission formats are contained in the full RFP Package available upon request via the Town’s accounting email. Payment and administrative correspondence should be directed to the Town’s Finance/Accounting office, with the Town Administrator serving as the primary administrative point of contact.
