Section 3. Conditions to Execution and Delivery of the Lease. The execution and delivery of the Lease is subject to the publication and protest period requirements of K.S.A. 10-1116c, adoption of a Resolution approving the forms and authorizing the execution of the Lease and a site lease (the “Site Lease”), and execution and delivery of such legal documents as may be necessary in connection with it, the terms of which shall be satisfactory to the Governing Body and to the lessor.
