SUBJECT:

Second Lease Amendment with Dan and Linda Bortolotti for the Sheriff's Coastside Substation at 500 California Street, unincorporated Moss Beach, California. (Lease No. 1219)

Recommendation
Adopt a Resolution authorizing the President of the Board of Supervisors to execute a five-year extension with Dan and Linda Bortolotti for the Sheriff's Substation at 500 California Street, Moss Beach.

Background
The Sheriff's Department has operated a substation at 500 California Street in Moss Beach since July of 1998. In 2001, as authorized by Resolution No. 64847, the First Amendment increased the area of the premises by approximately 850 square feet, which area was improved as a rest area and lockers for off-duty officers. The current lease agreement expires June 30, 2004. The Sheriff's Office has requested that the lease be extended for five years through June 30, 2009.

Discussion
The Second Lease Amendment extends the term of the Lease through June 30, 2009, grants the County an option to extend for an additional one-year term under the same terms and conditions and requires that the County maintain the building alarm system. The County is currently responsible for the cost of all utilities to the premises. The Second Amendment clarifies that the County may reimburse the landlord for such costs on a quarterly basis.

Vision Alignment
The proposed Second Lease Amendment keeps the commitment of responsive, effective and collaborative government and goal number 20: Government decisions are based on careful consideration of future impact, rather than immediate gain. The amendment contributes to this commitment and goal by maintaining a local presence for the Sheriff's Office to serve the public on the coast.

Fiscal Impact
Based on an estimated CPI increase of 3%, the annual rent for fiscal year 2004/2005 is $72,252. The Sheriff's Office has adequate funds budgeted in the proposed 2004/2005 fiscal year budget.
