HomeMy WebLinkAbout5C - City Perks Lease MEETING DATE: AGENDA #: PREPARED BY: AGENDA ITEM: DISCUSSION: CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT 16200 Eagle Creek Avenue S.E. Prior Lake, MN 55372-1714 February 22, 2005 5C Kelly Meyer, Assistant to the City Manager CONSIDER APPROVAL OF A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR AND CITY MANAGER TO ENTER INTO THE CITY'S STANDARD LEASE AGREEMENT WITH CITY PERKS FOR THE COFFEE SHOP SPACE LOCATED WITHIN THE LIBRARY RESOURCE CENTER AT 16210 EAGLE CREEK AVENUE. History: The 480 square coffee shop space located within the Library Resource Center is currently occupied by Dean Reeve and Kelly Siese d/b/a City Perks. Mr. Reeve and Ms. Siese purchased the business in February 2002. The initial 3 ye'ar lease term for the space expired on February 4,2005. The lease agreement provided for an optional3-year renewal term with built-in lease payments of $1215, $1276, and $1340 per year respectively. The lease renewal has not been exercised. Current Circumstances: Mr. Reeve and Ms. Siese approached the City to re-negotiate the renewal option of their current lease. Since they began operating City Perks in 2002, they believe changes have taken place that may have affected the business. These changes include privatization of the dance program, and the reduction in the hours of operation of the Library. They also have concerns that the renewal lease rates are above the market, and that a new bakery in the area may have a significant impact upon their coffee shop. For these reasons, the City agreed to re-negotiate the renewal term of the existing lease. The staff began by reviewing the commercial lease rates for properties in the area. It is difficult to make direct comparisons because few facilities are as small as the City Perks space (most require a minimum of 1000 sq. ft.), some have operating and common area maintenance costs added over and above the rent payments (City Perks does not), and many of the facilities are of a lesser quality that the current City Perks lease space. Given this research, staff is recommending that the City enter into a new lease agreement with City Perks, and has re-negotiated the terms set forth below. The existing rate of $1000 - $1100 per month ($25.00 - $27.50 per square foot) appears to be the existing market in Scott County. At the same time, the City is sensitive to the other concerns raised by the business owners regarding reduction in hours of operation of the Library, and privatization of the dance program, and wants to be pro-active in assisting an established member of the Downtown Prior Lake business community when appropriate. The City is also responsible for www.cityofpriorlake.com 1:\CQUNCIL\AGNRPTS\2005\CITY P~~!-~~I4<991230 / Fax 952.447.4245 ALTERNATIVES: RECOMMENDED MOTION: REVIEWED BY: protecting the public interest in the Library Resource facility. As such, we have negotiated the following lease terms. 1. The lease will be for a term of one year beginning February 2005 and extending through January 31, 2006. This will allow the business owner to gauge and evaluate any impacts a new bakery may have on its operations and ultimately determine if he wishes to exercise the four-year renewal option. 2. The lease payment for the initial term will be $1000 per month ($25.00/sq.ft.). 3. Thereafter, the lease agreement provides for a four year renewal option, at the sole discretion of the City, with monthly rents in the amount of $1000 for renewal years one and two, $1050 in year 3, and $1100 in year 4. 4. The City will also be responsible for paying the real estate taxes associated with the City Perks portion of the facility. 5. The lease provides no other changes to the City's or the Lessee's responsibilities from the previous lease. Conclusion: The attached lease agreement is the City's standard lease agreement, modified to outline the terms set forth above. The agreement has been executed by Dean Reeve and Kelly Biese. The Council should consider whether the terms of the agreement are acceptable. (1) Adopt a Resolution Authorizing the Mayor and City Manager to Enter into a one- year lease agreement between the City of Prior Lake and City Perks for the lease of the 480 square foot coffee shop space within the Library Resource Center. (2) Take no action and direct staff to provide additional information. Motion and second to adopt a Resolution approving a one-year lease as outlined above. 1:\COUNCIL\AGNRPTS\2005\CITY PERKS LEASE.DOC 16200 Eagle Creek Avenue S.E.
