Honorable Mayor and City Council
Chris A. Kukulski, City Manager
One Year Lease Extension Agreement for 248 3rd Avenue East
MEETING DATE: May 7, 2001
BACKGROUND: Attached is a copy of the Lease Extension Agreement for 248 3 d Avenue East. The
Community Development and Building Department offices have both been housed in this building, which
is located at the corner of 3`d Avenue East and 3rd Street East, since 1.991. The extension is consistent with
the current lease in every way including a rate increase which is determined annually by utilizing the U.S.
Dept. of Labor, Bureau of Vital Statistics, Consumers Price Index, West Addition (CPI-U). The CPI -U for
the period identified in the lease was 4.1 %, which increases our annual lease payment to $27,254.88.
The one year extension was made upon the request of the City. As we continue to work through our space
needs analysis, it would not seem prudent to sign into a lease arrangement that would extend beyond one
year. The building is functional for the City and the lease rate is competitive. Glen Neier, Craig Kerzman
and Susan Moyer have all reviewed the lease.
RECOMMENDATION: The City Council authorize the City Manager to sign the attached one year Lease
Extension Agreement for 248 3' Avenue East.
FISCAL EFFECTS: The annual cost of the lease is $27,254.88. This is an increase of $1,115 over the
previous years lease. The lease payment is paid by the Community Development Department's UDAG fund
and the Building Code Department's budget.
ALTERNATIVES: As suggested by the Council.
Respectfully submitted,
A,
Chris A. Kukulski
City Manager
