Honorable Board of Supervisors |
FROM: |
Paul T. Scannell, Assistant County Manager |
SUBJECT: |
Second Amendment to Lease Agreement with the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District for the Rolph Peak Communication Facility (Lease No. 1013) |
| |
Recommendation |
Adopt a Resolution authorizing the President of the Board of Supervisors to execute a Second Amendment to Lease with the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District for the Rolph Peak Communication Facility. |
| |
Background |
Since 1975 the County has leased a site from the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District for the Rolph Peak Communication facility. Since 1994 the County has sublet portions of this facility in order to offset County costs.
The lease agreement expired on October 31, 2002. The Information Services Department has requested that the lease be extended for an additional five-year term. Processing of the Second Amendment to Lease was delayed while the landlord investigated modifying the agreement to accommodate shared use of the facility for landlord's wireless equipment. Capacity of the facility was insufficient to meet the landlord's request. |
| |
Discussion |
The Second Amendment to Lease is on the same terms and conditions as the original Lease Agreement except that the term will be extended through October 31, 2007. The monthly rental rate will increase from $22,419 to $25,000 per year, which is considered to be fair market rent. The County sublets this facility to commercial users whose rent payments offset 100% of the County's fees. |
| |
The Chief Information Officer concurs in this recommendation. County Counsel has reviewed the agreement and approved the resolution as to form. |
| |
Vision Alignment |
The Second Amendment to Lease keeps the commitment of responsive, effective and collaborative government and goal number 22: County and local governments effectively communicate, collaborate and develop strategic approaches to issues affecting the entire County. The agreement contributes to this commitment and goal since it establishes a working agreement with benefits to both the County of San Mateo and the Midpeninsula Regional Open Space District while also benefiting the public. |
