DATE ATTACHMENTS 01/07/13 Informational Memorandum dated 1/4/13 Sound Cities Association Lease Agreement 39 40 TO: City of Tukwila Jim Haggerton, Mayor INFORMATIONAL MEMORANDUM Mayor Haggerton City Council FROM: Bob Giberson, Public Works Director DATE: January 4, 2013 SUBJECT: Suburban Cities Association (now Sound Cities Association) New Lease Agreement — Suite 206, 6300 Building ISSUE Approve the new lease agreement with Sound Cities Association (SCA, formerly known as Suburban Cities Association). BACKGROUND In April 2006, the City entered into a five year lease of Suite 206 in the 6300 Building (1,100 rentable square feet) with SCA that included telephone service. The rent started at $825 /month in 2006 and was increased by about 10% every year until 2010 with a rent of $1,192/mo. Amendment #1 was processed in January 2010 to extend the lease by three years and and adjusted the 2010 rent downward to $1,128.42/mo, and set the rent for 2011 at $1,184.33/mo and set 2012 rent at $1,243.92/mo. Amendment #2 was processed in January 2012 to add in IT services for network and technical support at the billable rate of $75 /hour for technical work and $100 /hour for network and managerial support. A new lease agreement was negotiated to include an additional 360 square feet of space and a new monthly rent of $1,703.33 for 2013, $1,764.17 for 2014, and $1,825.00 for 2015. DISCUSSION The current lease with SCA expires on January 31, 2013. SCA has submitted a remodel plan to the building department for review to gain partial approval of their expansion. The remainder of the approval is through this new lease agreement. The expansion of Suite 206 for SCA will result in the reduction of floor space for Public Works Project Management staff in Suite 212. To accommodate this reduction, we are looking at moving a few staff downstairs in Suite 100. The cost of the move downstairs will include a few additional network and phone connections, cubicle panels and minor office adjustment costs. The additional rent for the expanded space will cover the relocation costs for Public Works. RECOMMENDATION Council is being asked to authorize the Mayor to sign a new lease agreement with SCA for a term of three years and a rent of $1,703.33 per month for 2013 including rent of an additional 360 square feet and consider this item at the January 7, 2013 Regular Meeting. (With no Council Committee meetings in early January, in order to meet the necessary timeline, staff is requesting consideration of this item at this meeting.)
