The University wishes to enter into a lease agreement with a firm that has the financial strength, management and expertise to complete the Project within the proposed timelines, while offering the best return to the University. The firm will be selected based on qualifications and demonstrated competence that include relevant experience, and a proven track record with other landowners with outdoor advertising signs, including public agencies, as well as offering the best return to the University for placing outdoor signs on their lands. Each proposal will be evaluated for feasibility, completeness and thoroughness in addressing the needs of the University.
