HomeMy WebLinkAbout07 FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE RENTAL AGREEMENT WITH KYA SERVICES LLCAGENDA REPOR MEETING DATE: JULY 3, 2018 TO: JEFFREY C. PARKER, CITY MANAGER FROM: ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT Agenda Item 7 Reviewed: City Manager Finance Director SUBJECT: FIRST AMENDMENT TO THE RENTAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF TUSTIN AND KYA SERVICES, LLC FOR A PORTION OF THE BUILDING LOCATED AT 15171 DEL AMO AVENUE SUMMARY: Approval is requested to amend the Rental Agreement between the City and Kya Services, LLC (Tenant), for City -owned property located at 15171 Del Amo Avenue. RECOMMENDATION: The City Council authorize the City Manager to execute the First Amendment to the Rental Agreement with Kya Services, LLC in a form substantially consistent with the attachment and support the finding that the Rental Agreement is at market value and no further policy directions, as outlined in Tustin City Code Section 7960(8), are required. FISCAL IMPACT: The current Rental Agreement for 28,000 square feet expires July 31, 2018, with the Tenant paying a monthly rent of $13,367.34. The First Amendment will become effective August 1, 2018, and the monthly rent will increase to $21,000. The term is for two years and the rent will increase in the second year by 4%. Although it is standard business practice for the brokerage fees to be paid upon agreement execution and to be based on the total rent generated during the term of an agreement, fees will be paid annually in order to reflect the option for either party to terminate at any time after the first year. COORELATION TO THE STRATEGIC PLAN: The Rental Agreement with Kya Services, LLC is consistent with the City's value of Fiscal Stewardship. In complying with Tustin City Code Section 7960(B), fact -based financial decisions ensure the City practices sound stewardship of its existing assets. Agenda Report July 3, 2018 Page 2 BACKGROUND: In January 2010, the City entered into a brokerage agreement with Lee & Associates to seek tenants for the building as a light industrial use, distribution use, or warehouse use (the legal non -conforming uses currently authorized on the property). On July 21, 2015, the City Council authorized a three-year Rental Agreement with the Tenant for 28,000 square feet of the existing 84,000 square foot building. Effective August 1, 2018, the negotiated rent rate is $.75 per square foot ($21,000 per month) and the premises are rented on a triple -net basis, meaning the Tenant will pay all real estate taxes, insurance, maintenance, repairs, utilities and other items associated with tenancy. Unless the either party provides a six-month termination notice prior to the Agreement's termination, the termination date will be July 31, 2020. Tustin City Code (TCC) Section 7960, as enacted by Ordinance No. 1389, outlines the process City staff must follow for the approval, extension or modification of any existing City real property lease for less than market value. In the event a lease is less than market value, then staff must seek policy direction from the City Council as outlined in TCC Section 7960(B). Staff, in working with Lee & Associates, has reviewed comparables to confirm current asking rates for buildings in the same market range as the Del Amo building and the proposed First Amendment to the Rental Agreement is not for less than market value. As a result, the proposed First Amendment to the Rental Agreement does not trigger further actions as outlined in TCC Section 7960(B). Staff is available for any questions the City Council may have.
