Sounds a little low, should be in the $5-600 range, but given the state of the economy I wouldn't pass it up on that alone. Most cell companies haven’t invested much in rural areas for some time now. Given your location you will likely never see a second offer. If you get in now with automatic increases you could be setting pretty good in a few years. I sure wouldn’t be asking to many neighbors what they think.
Why do they need so much (long access drive vs. right off the road?) Even if they put in a guide tower, it shouldn’t be more than a couple acres. I would be asking why Also find out just what they plan to build. A 200 foot tower and a 100 x 100 lot for shelters is one thing. They plan on constructing a 1,200 foot tower and 5000 square foot building that’s another (not usually done on leased ground).
EMF should be of no concern as long as they don't put antennas at ground level and you stand in front of them or they put up a 5 mega watt transmitter 30 feet in the air. But you do want to know what the lighting requirements are and what they plan to do. The company I work for placed a tower on a lady's place and used a night strobe instead of a red light. Well it took her about 2 hours of the first night it was on to decide that wasn't going to work (this tower was 250' west of her bed room window).
Getting an attorney to look over the paper work is only prudent. Things like improvements and maintenance need to be spelled out in it. Also spell out things like visual, noise, and access issues. You will have to deal with the tax burden ($4200 in added income) and get use to an increase in traffic. Personally as long as it wasn’t in my front yard I would jump on it.

Today's Featured Article - Show Coverage: Journey to Ankeny - by Cindy Ladage. We left Illinois on the first day of July and headed north and west for Ankeny, Iowa. Minus two kids, we traveled light with only the youngest in tow. As long as a pool was at the end of our destination she was easy to please unlike the other two who have a multitude of requirements to travel with mom and dad. Amana Colonies served as a respite where we ate a family style lunch that sustained us with more food than could reasonably fit into our ample physiques. The show at Ankeny
