No need for a separate down conductor.  The tower is metal and can handle the 
surge energy.

I can't comment on the ufer connection but you'll also want to have separate 
ground radials connected to each tower leg.  Polyphaser recommends 50 - 75 feet 
long radials with ground rods located every 2X rod height.
