Body
WHEREAS, the City of Saint Paul ("Lessor") and the Boys and Girls Club of the Twin Cities ("Lessee") entered into the “Lease Agreement Between the City of Saint Paul and Boys & Girls Clubs of the Twin Cities” ("Agreement") on September 1, 2011 for the lease of the Franklin Magnet School located at 690 Jackson Street Saint Paul, Minnesota from Lessor to Lessee for thirty (30) years beginning on September 15, 2011; and
WHEREAS the Agreement requires the Lessor to provide two part-time on-site staff and pay $35,000 to reimburse Lessee for operations and maintenance of the facility on the Lessor's behalf; and
WHEREAS, the Lessor and Lessee both wish to amend the original Agreement in order for the Lessor to provide Lessee funding in lieu of staff persons due to the difficulty managing city staff at the site that has no other city staff present, and to help manage and keep costs more consistent for the Lessor; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, the Saint Paul City Council grants permission to the Director of Parks and Recreation or his designee to enter into the attached "FIRST AMENDMENT TO LEASE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF SAINT PAUL AND BOYS & GIRLS CLUBS OF THE TWIN CITIES"
