Summary

History
On October Ie, 2002, the District Board directed General Manager Holzmeister to enter
into a Brokerage Agreement with Aggregate Networks for the sale of District owed conduit.
As part of the Williams Communication project, completed approximately two years ago, the
District was to receive 16.5 miles of two 2" conduits. In May of last year the District received
a Bill of Sale from Williams, deeding over the conduit to the District.
New Information

the Board with a document detailing the aspects of the negotiated agreement, and a report
detailing the evaluation of the conduits value and the value of Touch America's offer.
