BACKGROUND INFORMATION

The recommended action will amend existing Lease Agreement No. 13-537 (Lease) to extend the term of the Lease for 10 years from October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2034, due to the concurrent exercise of two existing five-year extension options.  The amendment will also provide for tenant improvements to be performed by AP-Transpark Office, LLC (Landlord), adjust the rental rate schedule, and update standard lease agreement language for approximately 34,469 square feet of office space located at 2940 Inland Empire Boulevard in Ontario (Premises).

 

On July 9, 2013 (Item No. 35), the Board of Supervisors (Board) approved a 10-year Lease Agreement, with two five-year options to extend the term for 34,469 square feet of office space at the Premises for use by DBH.  The original lease term was from June 1, 2014 through May 30, 2024.  In the nine years since the lease was originally approved, the Board has approved three amendments to revise the commencement and end dates of the initial term of the Lease, reflect a change of property ownership, and update standard lease agreement language.

DBH requested that RESD process an amendment to extend the existing term of the Lease, which is currently scheduled to expire on September 30, 2024, for 10 years from October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2034, due to the concurrent exercise of two existing five-year extension options.  The early exercise of both existing five-year extension options facilitates the Landlord’s performance of certain improvements for DBH at the premises and removes a mutual right of early termination in exchange for a County-only early termination right effective on or after September 30, 2031, by providing the Landlord with not less than 180-days prior written notice.  The improvements, which will be performed by the Landlord at its sole cost, include electrical and heating, ventilation, and air conditioning upgrades, cubicle and office expansions, workstation reconfigurations, furniture and flooring updates, drywall repairs, painting, and replacement doors that comply with the American Disabilities Act.  The amendment will also adjust the rental rate schedule and update standard lease agreement language.  All other Lease terms remain unchanged.

 

Staff has reviewed the recommended action pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that it does not constitute a project.  Accordingly, no further action is required under CEQA.
