HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
City of Long Beach
California
RECOMMENDATION:
Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute the First Amendment to Lease Agreement No. 2 8338 between City of Long Beach ( City) and the County Sanitation District No. 3 of Los Angeles County (County) for the property located at 1173 North Loma Vista Drive. (District 1)
DISCUSSION
On September 10, 2002, the City Council authorized the City Manager to enter into a 20-year lease agreement with County Sanitation District No. 3 of Los Angeles County (County) to lease approximately 0.14 a cres of County-owned land, located at 1173 North Loma Vista Drive (Premises). The Premises has been developed into Loma Vista Park, a mini park with a lawn area, trees, seating, and a play structure with a rubberized tot lot surface. In 2007, the Arts Council of Long Beach , together with a local artist and nearby school students, incorporated the manhole covers in a mosaic design of the sun and solar system. Loma Vista Park has added much needed open space in an area that is underserved and offers residents access to a walkable and bikeable neighborhood park.
The current term of the lease is set to expire on May 13, 2023. Both the County and the City desire to e xtend the lease to continue providing much-needed recreation area that benefits local residents and the surrounding neighborhoods. A First Amendment to the lease has been negotiated to extend the term for a period of twenty (20) years through May 13, 2043, for a one-time rent payment in the amount of One Thousand Dollars ($1,000).
On April 20, 2023, the Parks and Recreation Commission recommended to the City Manager the approval of the First Amendment to Lease No. 28338. The terms and conditions of the First Amendment include the following:
• Lessor: County Sanitation District No. 3 of Los Angeles County. • Lessee: City of Long Beach, a municipal corporation.
• Premises: 1173 North Loma Vista Drive, consisting of approximately 0.14 acres. • Use: Loma Vista Park, a mini park that includes a lawn area, trees, seating, and a play structure with a rubberized tot lot surface.
