The parties have reached agreement on all of the terms of the lease. The attached lease agreement includes a number of terms consistent with other leases of Town property, as well as terms specific to the use of the space by the Friends. Key specific terms for the Friends include: • Lease covers a total of 1,860 square feet on the upper floor. • Covers a term of ten years, plus the option for two additional five -year periods • Rent is $1.00 per year; however, the lease requires a funding commitment of $50,000 from the Friends beginning in year two with a $5,000 increase per year with a cap of $75,000 per year during the 10 -year term. Funds from Friends' books sales will be deposited in a Library Trust Fund account to be used for library operations. • Sets forth operating hours consistent with the Los Gatos library, with the store being closed to the public on Wednesdays to minimize impacts on Civic Center parking. • Requires Friends employees (one) and volunteers working over 20 hours per week on weekdays (currently none) to purchase Olive Zone parking permits annually and to comply with Town employee parking requirements. • The Town will make improvements to a unisex restroom in the book store and install a new integrated- building HVAC system. All other improvements are the responsibility of the Friends. • Sets forth requirements for Town Council approval of exterior signage, and for identifying the partnership with the Town on printed and electronic marketing materials. Once the lease agreement is executed, the Friends will proceed to develop plans for tenant improvements. The Town has initiated planning for the Town- covered improvements. CONCLUSION: Town staff has been in lease negotiations with the Friends since September 2012 pursuant to Council direction. The attached lease represents both parties' agreement to the terms. Staff recommends that Council authorize the Town Manager to execute the lease agreement. The Friends organization has been occupying the space for used book sales on a temporary basis since Fall 2012. The Town will complete its structural improvements in FY 2013/14, and the Friends will endeavor over the year to complete its tenant improvements with a goal to open the remodeled book store in 2014. ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT: An Environmental Impact Report was prepared for the new library project including library re -use and was certified by the Town Council on January 11, 2010. No further environmental analysis is required.
