RECOMMENDATIONS:
APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to execute a Second Amendment to lease with Helge Theiss-Nyland and Patricia Theiss-Nyland, Trustees of the Helge Theiss-Nyland and Patricia Theiss-Nyland 2006 Trust, that will extend the term of the lease for five years for approximately 620 square feet of office space located at 2101 Vale Road, in San Pablo for Veterans Services, at an initial annual rent of $18,120.00 with annual increases thereafter.
FISCAL IMPACT:
100% General Fund. The second amendment will obligate the County to pay rent of $96,204.00 over the five-year term. (Org #579)
BACKGROUND:
Veterans Services - San Pablo Outstation provides a wide variety of services to veterans, survivors, and dependents, including assistance with obtaining Veterans Administration service-related benefits, disability and needs-based benefits, life insurance and education benefits, home loan guarantees and burial benefits. This amendment permits the County’s continued occupancy of this location.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the lease is not extended, the functions performed by Veterans Services at this location would require another suitable location, with increased rent, together with the associated expenses of moving and constructing new tenant improvements.
