Staff is seeking Council approval of a lease for the Tukwila Village commons and plaza pursuant to a Lease Option Agreement set to expire July 31, 2018. Because the City and the developer are still working on formation of the nonprofit/community organization that will manage the property, this will afford the City the ability to manage the plaza and commons until the nonprofit is formed and can assume the lease. There will be minor expenses associated with staffing, utilities and cleaning, but the City could earn revenue on rentals to offset the costs. With regard to the formation of the nonprofit, the City is allotted one Board position, which will be filled by the Mayor for one year. Staff plans to seek direction from Council on how to handle future appointments to this position. UNANIMOUS APPROVAL. FORWARD TO JULY 9, 2018 COMMITTEE OF THE WHOLE.
