201 SAW MILL CLAIM.pdf
 
Rationale:
The District has been leasing space in this building since 1995. As part of the Lease Agreement, the District is responsible for certain extra costs, not built into the “base rent” as “additional rent”. This includes but is not limited to servicing and repairs to the elevator, any repairs needed as a result of the District’s and interest on overdue payments.
This resolution is to authorize the payment of the subject PO for such charges under the “additional rent” clause incurred over the past 2 years primarily that of the elevator, a sewer blockage (shared cost) and interest. Please that this was heavily negotiated down from a claim more than twice that amount.
 
Funding:
450.5150.100000.1620.B2300 $19,666.00.
