BACKGROUND INFORMATION: The City entered into a 10 -year lease with the Lodi Adopt -A -Child Foundation (LAAC) on May 28, 2002, for the property located at 100 East Pine Street. The lease payment is $1.00 per year. In August 2009, Council authorized an eight-year extension of the lease in exchange for LAAC repaving the parking lot at its sole expense. The current lease expires on May 28, 2020, and allows additional extensions by mutual agreement and Council approval. The LAAC has expressed an interest in extending the current lease beyond 2020 in accordance with the terms of the original lease and subsequent extensions, and has invested over $250,000 in tenant improvements at the 100 East Pine Street site since the original lease was executed in 2002. In addition, there are currently two, non-profit organizations that have expressed interest in either occupying the building, or sharing the space, in a way that would accommodate both LAAC operations, along with the non-profit operations. At the request of both organizations, Council has recently held shirtsleeve meetings at Village Adult Development & Community Center, and the Community Partnership for Families of San Joaquin, to learn about their services and respective benefits to the community. The lease for the business at the City -owned building located at 125 North Stockton Street is currently expired and is operating under a month-to-month term. Since this lease is expired, staff recommends including this location in the proposal process. Considering the leases at both locations are either expired, or are about to expire, it is recommended Council authorize staff to solicit proposals from interested parties that will compete for the opportunity to conduct operations at either of these locations. The proposals would be evaluated based on overall community benefit and proposals that include cooperative use by multiple organizations will be encouraged. FISCAL IMPACT: Not applicable.
