SUMMARY:Telecommunications Webinar
DESCRIPTION:April 17 – Telecommunications \nSelling Your Cell Lease \nOnce your local government leases property for a cell tower or cell antenna\, you will routinely receive offers to buy the cell tower lease for a lump sum payment (often plus a percentage of future revenues)\, coupled with a long term (or perpetual) easement.  The most common question is whether these are good deals for governments.  This program\, taught by John Pestle\, Esq. and Dr. Jonathan Kramer\, Esq.\, both highly experienced local government telecommunications attorneys\, covers (1) how to determine whether a sale of a cell lease and future leasing rights is in a municipality’s best interest\, (2) descriptions of the non-binding bid process which will commonly lead to the best price and terms\, (3) the significant legal issues\, business issues and potential pitfalls involved in selling the lease\, and (4) some of the traps hidden in the lengthy “Communications Easement” you will be asked to execute.  This program will help you spot the major issues in the very one-sided documents typically offered by buyers.  Key points to be addressed include (a) making sure the municipality is not hindered in using its property for its primary public use; (b) ensuring that future sums and duties promised by the purchaser in fact are performed; (c) unique insurance and bankruptcy issues; (d) special questions of municipal authority; (e) compliance with bond obligations and IRS tax-exempt bond regulations; (f) municipal finance/procurement statutes; and (g) prohibitions on waste. Extensive handouts in PDF format will be provided to participants\, which commonly include local government attorneys\, city managers and the real estate property managers working for local governments. A lively and interactive Question and Answer session will follow the presentation. \nSpeakers: John Pestle & Jonathan Kramer \n  \nClick here to register.

SUMMARY:Land Use Webinar
DESCRIPTION:April 23 – Land Use \nMarijuana Business Zoning and Licensing \nIn this webinar I will first discuss the differing regulatory regimes for marijuana at the federal\, state\, and local levels\, highlighting the issues and concerns that arise from conflicts between differing regulations among these levels of government. This part of the webinar will focus on: (1) how states are able to make marijuana legal when it is illegal under federal law and (2) how states do — or do not — accommodate local preferences for regulation of marijuana on states where marijuana is legal. \nSecond\, I will discuss the legal issues local governments face in states where marijuana has been legalized in some form. In these states\, local governments must comply with state law as regards their regulation – or prohibition — of marijuana businesses. These choices can address any of the following\, depending on state law: (1) accepting\, reviewing and processing applications\, renewals and transfers; (2) issuing and renewing business permits and licenses;; (3) deciding on zoning approvals for marijuana production facilities\, retail stores and other establishments; (4) tracking multiple department inspections of new licenses or changes\, as well as annual inspections; (5) managing building permits for construction of new establishments; (6) conducting code enforcement investigations\, hearings and other enforcement activities; (7) collecting fees for permits or licenses; (8) collecting business taxes; (9) managing activities that are subject to environmental\, health or safety regulations\, such as regulating establishments that produce edible products infused with marijuana; and (10) sending required reports to the state. This part of the webinar presents an overview of these issues and discusses the differing regulatory approaches and experience of representative cities. \nSpeaker: Alan Weinstein \n  \nClick here to register.
