2d. Lease Agreementof Kalispell illIMEM Post Office Box 1997 - Kalispell, Montana 59903-1997 • Telephone (406) 758-7700 • FAX (406) 758-7758 Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: Chris A. Kukulski, City Manager SUBJECT: Lease Agreement MEETING DATE: February 7, 2000 BACK GROUND: Attached is a copy of the Lease Agreement that will be signed by the Flathead Valley Port Authority City of Kalispell and Stream International. The Lease Agreement details the relationship between the City/Port and Stream as it pertains to the lease arrangement between the three parties. The intent of this memo is to cover only the additional major business points that have not already been reviewed through the Location, Development and Use Agreement and Interlocal Agreement. Glenn and Jonathan Smith will be at the meeting to answer any questions regarding the lease. The Major points are as follows: Improvement - Stream is accepting the space in its current "as is where is" condition, and is responsible, for all costs associated with improving the space (roof, HVAC, walls, floors etc.) Lease Payment - Annually Stream will have a lease payment due of $275,000 . Under the LDUA this lease payment will be offset by the City's annual reimbursement for capital improvements made to the site. Stream is responsible for the lease for the full ten years even if they no longer occupy the space. Stream will pay additional lease payments of $129,704.78 as Land Lord Improvement Rent, payable in two equal semi-annual payments. Common Areas - Under the purchase arrangement between the City and American Capital, the City has use of all common areas within the mall. In addition, the City is responsible for its per rata share of improvement costs in these areas (parking lot, common area improvements etc.). Under the lease, Stream will be responsible for paying the City's per rata share. Capital Improvements - For any capital improvements that are necessary after the structure is brought up to specification (after Stream has refurbished the space). The City/Port will be responsible for certain capital items which cannot be passed through to Stream.. The City/Port is creating a building reserve fund as described in the Interlocal Agreement to cover these unforseen costs. Because of the magnitude of improvements being made by American Capital and Stream, we do not expect any major improvements. RECOMMENDATION: That the City Council authorize me to sign the attached Lease Agreement. I further request that I be authorized to make non -substantive (minor) changes to the agreement, if necessary, based on the advise of our legal counsel. Page 1 of 2 FISCAL EFFECTS: The direct impact of this project on the City's tax revenues will be offset by the expenses paid out in order to complete the project. However, the indirect impact of creating 500 full time jobs will definitely help to strengthen our economy and spur economic growth. ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the Council.
