BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The recommended action will amend Lease Agreement No. 08-104, by correcting the name of the landlord entity from Fairway Business Centre to Fairway Business Centre On Milliken, LLC extending the term of the lease for five years, for the period of December 1, 2021 through November 30, 2026, following a permitted holdover for the period of June 1, 2020 through November 30, 2021, due to the County’s exercise of an existing five-year extension option, correct the square footage of the premises from 24,438 square feet to 24,772 square feet, increasing the premises by approximately 334 square feet, provide for certain turn-key tenant improvements to be performed by landlord with the improvement cost to be reimbursed in one lump sum, adjust the rental rate schedule, and update standard lease agreement language.
On March 4, 2008 (Item No. 67), the Board of Supervisors (Board) approved a six-year Lease Agreement, No. 08-104, with one four-year option to extend the term of the lease for 20,085 square feet of office space for the Department of Aging and Adult Services (DAAS) at 9445 Fairway View Place in Rancho Cucamonga. The original term of the lease was for the period of June 1, 2008 to May 31, 2014. In the 13 years since the lease was originally approved, the Board has approved two amendments to extend the term of the lease, adjust the rental rate schedule, add options to extend the term, provide for tenant improvements to the premises, expand the premises, and update standard lease agreement language.

DAAS requested that RESD negotiate an extension of the lease term and landlord’s completion of certain turn-key tenant improvements. During negotiations, the landlord advised that the size of the premises, as re-measured by landlord, has been mis-stated as 24,438 square feet, but should be 24,772 square feet. Despite the square footage correction, the landlord agreed to calculate rental rates during the extended term at the original 24,438 square feet. However, rents will be calculated at the corrected 24,772 square feet for any further extensions of the lease term.
Amendment No. 3 to Lease Agreement No. 08-104 provides for a correction of the name of the landlord entity from Fairway Business Centre to Fairway Business Centre On Milliken, LLC, a five-year extension of the term of the lease for the period of December 1, 2021 through November 30, 2026, following a permitted holdover for the period of June 1, 2020 through November 30, 2021, correction of the square footage of the premises from approximately 24,438 square feet to approximately 24,772 square feet, increasing the premises by approximately 334 square feet, landlord’s completion of certain turn-key tenant improvements with the improvement cost to be reimbursed in one lump sum of $11,700, an adjustment of the rental rate schedule, and an update of standard lease agreement language. The base rental rate of $2.05 per square foot per month ($50,098) for the first year of the extended term, which is calculated on the original square feet of the premises, will increase by 2% for the second year, will not increase for the third year, will increase by 2.5% for the fourth year, and will not increase for the fifth year of the extended term. All other terms and conditions of the lease 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.
