LEASE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF HERMOSA BEACH AND 
SOUTH BAY YOUTH PROJECT FOR ROOM 6A IN THE COMMUNITY CENTER

 

Recommendation

Staff recommends that Council approve the attached lease agreement between the City and South Bay Youth Project for the use of Room 6A in the Community Center.

 

Background

The South Bay Youth Project is a non-profit organization that is dedicated to providing counseling, parenting, and positive alternative activities for South Bay youth and their families since 1975.

The South Bay Youth Project Youth Advisory Committee will use Room 6A for administrative duties and planning community events.

 

Analysis

The lease space for Room 6A is 166 square feet. The current lease rate (effective July 1, 2000) is $1.08 per square foot, making the monthly payment $179.28. The attached lease conforms to the present square footage rental policy.

In the attached letter, South Bay Youth Project has asked that their monthly rental fee be reduced or waived. In order to maintain equity amongst all non-profit tenants in the Community Center, the full rental fee shall be paid on a monthly basis as stated in the contract. As an alternative, South Bay Youth Project may wish to move into an available room that better accommodates their needs.

 

Fiscal Impact: FY 2000-01 - $1,614 to the General Fund
