TO: MAYOR HORNADAY AND HOMER CITY COUNCIL
FROM: MELISSA JACOBSEN, CMC, DEPUTY CITY CLERK
DATE: DECEMBER 2, 2010
SUBJ: LEASE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION FOR LEASE OF LOT 13B

At the November 30, 2010 special meeting of the Lease Committee the following action was taken:

HAWKINS/ABBOUD MOVED THAT AFTER REVIEWING THE PROPOSAL FROM SNUG HARBOR SEAFOOD’S, THE LEASE COMMITTEE RECOMMENDS THAT A FIVE YEAR LEASE WITH TWO ONE YEAR OPTIONS BE APPROVED AND THAT THE CITY MANAGER BE AUTHORIZED TO NEGOTIATE THE RATE WITH A MINIMUM MONTHLY FEE SET AT THE RATE CURRENTLY BEING USED FOR LOT 13B.

Mr. Abboud questioned what the current rate is base on as there is no information in the packet. There was brief discussion that there is not a current appraisal, only what they are paying now.

MAURAS/YAGER MOVED TO AMEND TO HAVE THE RATE BASED ON THE APPRAISED VALUE.

Discussion ensued that the amendment is consistent with the current lease policy and the appraisal probably should have been done before the RFP. The proposal includes the current lease rate and City Manager Wrede commented his intention is to start at the appraisal and fair market rent when negotiating the lease.

VOTE: (Amendment): NON OBJECTION: UNANIMOUS CONSENT

Motion carried.

Mrs. Mauras reiterated that the applicant needs to have a business license.

VOTE: (Main motion as amended): NON OBJECTION: UNANIMOUS CONSENT

Motion carried.
