BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The recommended action will amend an existing lease agreement to reflect a change in property ownership from Lakeside RE Holdings LLC to Summitview Capital, Inc. for approximately 21,977 square feet of office space located at 620 South E Street in San Bernardino for the San Bernardino County Fire Protection District - Office of the Fire Marshal (SBCFPD).
On January 15, 2002 (Item No. 50), the Board of Supervisors (Board) approved a seven-year Lease Agreement, No. 02-37, with one three-year option to extend the term of the lease for 21,977 square feet of office space at 620 South E Street in San Bernardino. The original term of the lease was for the period of April 1, 2002 through March 31, 2009. In the 19 years since the lease was originally approved, the Board has approved eight amendments extending the term of the lease through March 31, 2024, reducing the monthly rent, adding additional options to extend the term of the lease, providing for tenant improvements, reflecting changes of property ownership, and updating standard lease agreement language.
