You will have the ability to download and print documents we send to you through the DocuSign system during and immediately after the signing session and, if you elect to create a DocuSign account, you may access the documents for a limited period of time (usually 30 days) after such documents are first sent to you.

3 CITY MANAGER'S REPORT
City Manager Christina Turner thanked the Mayor for discussing the Economic Mobility Symposium. There were over 150 attendees and 10 panelists. She shared that we showed a video that we will be making available to the public. This video was made possible by a grant that we received. It highlights diverse local residents, discussing crucial connections between affordable housing and a thriving community. She announced that the Aquatics Center opens on Saturday, June 8, 2024 for the summer season. She also spoke about the Cities Association of Santa Clara County mental health awareness initiative that aims to bring to light issues like anxiety, depression, and loneliness within the community. Today they delivered signs to each city to place at city facilities and downtown areas, featuring the "988" mental health crisis hotline and a QR code link to online resources. This aligns with Council Member Spring's request to address loneliness in our Community. The visible presence of these signs in common community areas will serve as a constant reminder that support is available, encouraging people to seek assistance. By providing immediate access to mental health resources, the campaign fosters a sense of connection and community support.

Additionally, the Cities Association is working on the development of a social media toolkit for community outreach to further extend the campaign's reach, engaging residents through various online platforms and to help normalize conversations around mental health and loneliness, reducing stigma and encouraging individuals to connect with others, share their experiences, and access support services.

A TOTAL NOT TO EXCEED AMOUNT OF $200,000

RECOMMENDATION(S)

1. Award a two-year maintenance service agreement to West Coast Doors and Gates for a not to exceed amount of $200,000 for on-call door and gate repair services with three one-year extensions, subject to budget appropriation; and

REPORT NARRATIVE:

The purpose of this report is to provide the City Council with an opportunity to consider awarding an agreement to West Coast Doors and Gates for on-call door and gate repair services in the amount of $200,000.

The City has contracted for door and gate repair services for many years on an on-call, as-needed basis as the City does not have the staffing resources to perform the work internally. As the City's current on-call door and gate repair maintenance service agreement expires on June 30, 2024, the Request for Proposals (RFP) was issued on April 22, 2024. All contractors responding to the RFP were required to possess a current and valid California Contractor State Licensing Board (CSLB) license in the classification required by law to perform the work: CSLB C-61/D-28 (Doors, Gates & Activating Devices) and/or C-28 (Lock and Security Equipment).

In soliciting proposals for this project, the City notified contractors on the City's bidders' list with the CSLB C-61/D-28 and C-28 classifications. The RFP was also advertised in

Page 325 of 431 ends

9 the Morgan Hill Times on April 19, 2024. The bids were posted on the City of Morgan Hill website, Public Purchase online bid service, County of Santa Clara Builders Exchange, Bay Area Builders Exchange, and San Francisco Builders Exchange.

On May 20, 2024, three proposals were received in response to the RFP from McKendry Door Sales, Inc., Nor-Cal Overhead, Inc., and West Coast Doors and Gates.

An evaluation committee of two Maintenance Services staff evaluated and scored the three proposals. The proposals were first evaluated based on narrative responses to questions regarding previous experience, work quality, client relations, and the local office's staff qualifications. Proposals that received a minimum 40 of 50 possible points then had their cost proposals reviewed to determine which proposals offered the best overall value to the City. Based on the RFP's scoring criteria, below are the scores for the responses to the narrative questions (Attachment 1). West Coast Doors and Gates scored the highest with 41 points.

Contractor Narrative Score
West Coast Doors and
Gates

41.0 points
Nor-Cal Overhead, Inc. 40.0 points
McKendry Door Sales, Inc. 37.5 points
Since West Coast Doors and Gates, and Nor-Cal Overhead both scored the minimum 40 points, their cost proposals were reviewed to determine which proposal offered the best overall value to the City (Attachment 2). Although their hourly rates were similar, Nor-Cal Overhead had additional service fees, and a minimum 2-hour charge for each repair job. Due to these additional factors, the evaluation committee determined that West Coast Doors and Gates offered the best overall value to the City.

Staff recommends the award of the on-call door and gate repair maintenance service agreement to West Coast Doors and Gates for a total not-to-exceed amount of $200,000 for two years (Attachment 3). Repairs would be performed on an as-needed basis upon pre-approval by City Maintenance staff. The City's actual repair costs will be contingent upon the circumstances and frequency of repair needs. The new agreement will have a two-year term with authorization for the City Manager to execute three consecutive one-year extensions with the annual price increases not to exceed 5% of the prior year's annual pricing. If approved, the initial two-year term will be from July 1, 2024 to June 30, 2026.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT:

On-call door and gate repair is a routine, and standard service provided at City facilities.

Staff will post signage informing the public of any door and gate repairs that affect the use of City facilities. If the door and gate repairs will occur over several days, a general notice will be posted on the City's website and on Nextdoor Morgan Hill informing residents of any disruptions to services at City facilities.

ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:

Page 326 of 431 ends

9 An alternative action is to not approve this agreement, and to direct staff to issue another Request for Proposals (RFP) and extend the current agreement with West Coast Doors and Gates for six months. It is not anticipated that issuing a new RFP would result in better value to the City, so this alternative is not recommended.

PRIOR CITY COUNCIL AND COMMISSION ACTIONS:

The City has not taken prior action on this agreement. Since the current on-call doors and gates repair agreement is expiring on June 30, 2024, this RFP process was conducted.

FISCAL AND RESOURCE IMPACT:

The cost of door and gate repairs are budgeted in the building maintenance budgets for individual City facilities and parks. The $200,000 not-to-exceed amount in this agreement is recommended to ensure the City has a sufficient allocation to obtain needed repairs in a timely manner in order to limit any disruption to services or public safety issues.

CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act):

Categorical Exemption
The activities described in this Staff Report are categorically exempt under CEQA, specifically pursuant to Section 15301 of the CEQA Guidelines (Existing Facilities), as the subject work involves the repair, maintenance or minor alteration of existing City facilities involving negligible or no expansion of use of those facilities.

REPORT NARRATIVE:

In July 2015, the City Council authorized the purchase of 25.8 acres for a future baseball/softball field facility (Ball Field Property). The property is located south of the intersection of Condit Road and Tennant Avenue, adjacent to Highway 101. The property is within the unincorporated County. The purchase was made to “land bank” the property until a time when the City would have funding to develop the property. At the time of purchase of the property, it was believed that future annexation would bring the properties within the City limits, but it was also understood that if the properties were not annexed that they could be developed by the City in the County.

In 2016, the property was part of the annexation request made to the Santa Clara County Local Area Formation Commission (LAFCO). The annexation was denied by LAFCO. Several entities, including the County of Santa Clara and the Santa Clara Valley Open Space Authority have noted preferences for continued use of the site for

Page 348 of 431 ends

10 agriculture. In February 2019, the City Council directed City staff to look at the opportunity to find an alternate, more suitable recreation site that could allow the existing site to continue to be used for agriculture. This alternative site was identified in 2021 and the City Council approved purchase of 19.58 acres located on Monterey Road just south of Butterfield Boulevard.

With the acquisition of the new site, the former Ball Field Property was transferred to the City's Agricultural and Open Space Preservation Fund. An agricultural easement will be necessary to permanently preserve the former Ball Field Property for agriculture.

In 2022, the City has received interest from multiple parties that expressed a desire to use the City owned property for more active agricultural purposes. In June 2023, the City released a full Request for Proposals with the purpose to explore interest from private agricultural business operators for use of the City property for a mid- to longterm lease or property use arrangement. The guiding criteria for the property use was noted as:
• General agricultural use that continues to use the property productively. • Use supports agri-tourism and economic development for the region and the City of Morgan Hill.
• Opportunity to develop a portion of the site with agri-voltaics. • Generation of lease revenue for the City of Morgan Hill. • Safe use of the site from a traffic and public safety perspective. • Use is allowed under existing Santa Clara County Zoning.

On November 15, 2023, the City Council selected Terra Amico's proposal (Attachment 2) for development of the site. Since that time the owners of Terra Amico have changed the project name and formal business entity to Fattoria Public Market, Inc (FPM). The City staff have worked to develop an agreement for a lease with option to purchase in association with the development of the site by FPM. The proposed agreement is included in Attachment 1. The significant agreement points include:

Option to Lease – FPM option to lease for the due diligence and planning period of 5 years.

Term
• 5 Year Option for FPM to start lease - This allows time for planning to progress through the County development process.
• Option notification is required by June 15 of the year prior for the lease to commence on January 1 of the following year.
• 10-Year Lease Term – Upon FPM execution of lease agreement (following notification of option to lease).
• Option of Lease Extension of two additional 5 Year Terms if capital investment and goals are met:
o Investment of $250,000 capital dollars will provide FPM with the option to

Page 349 of 431 ends

10 extend lease term by 5 years.
o Investment of $500,000 of capital dollars will provide FPM with the option to extend lease term by an additional 5 years.
o Capital Investment must be for improvements identified in agreement. o Capital Investments are considered improvements on the property (not equipment or vehicles) that have a life expectancy of over 10 years.

Usage
• FPM shall have the right to use the property for the purposes outlined in the agreement.
• FPM shall have the right to continue basic farming use of the property. • Other uses shall require written permission by the City.

Option to Purchase
• FPM shall have the right to purchase the property for the fair market appraised value of the property if it has made $500,000 in investment towards the project. • Prior to the sale, the City will place an agricultural easement on the property permanently limiting the use of the property to agriculture.

Note: Placement of the easement will reduce the fair market value and purchase price for the property.

City Standard Terms
• Included are City standard terms to protect the City and ensure performance by FPM, including terms on insurance, indemnity, risk management, and legal protection for the City.

COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT:

Inform
The notice informing interested parties of the RFP was placed on the City's website.

City staff also provided the RFP directly to those expressing interest in agri-tourism in the area through past communications and processes.

ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:

The City Council could choose not to move forward with the lease and option to purchase with Fattoria Public Market, Inc. and provide alternate direction to the City staff.

PRIOR CITY COUNCIL AND COMMISSION ACTIONS:

July 15, 2015 – The City Council authorized the purchase of the Ball Field Site.

February 6, 2019 – The City Council provided direction on development of the Ball Field

Page 350 of 431 ends

10 Site.

August 4, 2021 - The City Council approved the purchase of new park land and the transfer of the existing Ball Field site to the Agriculture and Open Space Fund.

November 15, 2023 - The City Council directed staff to enter into negotiations with Terra Amico for an agri-tourism related lease.

FISCAL AND RESOURCE IMPACT:

Revenue of $13,000 per year will be received upon execution of the option to lease of the City-owned property, with potential increased revenue of 10% of net profits from the site being possible after development of the site. Revenues would be placed into the Agricultural and Open Space Preservation Fund. Should the option to purchase be executed in the future, millions of dollars would be expected to be paid into the Fund.

CEQA (California Environmental Quality Act):

Categorical Exemption
The option to lease is exempt under CEQA exemption Class 1 Exisitng Facilities as the lease itself does not require any change in use. Future development of the site requires additional environmental review.

1. Description of Development
Proposal
This proposal is for the development of a Public Market and Regional Food Hub on the 25.6 acres of property at the intersection of Hwy 101 and Tennant Avenue. The working name is Fattoria Public Market, referring to “farm”.

Fattoria Public Market will be a year-round indoor farmer’s market and food hub, purposely designed to allow local
agricultural producers the opportunity to sell their goods directly to both institutional and individual consumers at their peak of freshness. The marketplace will alleviate the burden that farmers, ranchers and other agricultural producers face when struggling to sell their goods at pop-up roadside stands and weekly parking lot farmers markets. By selling directly to consumers in a predictable environment, farmers can
increase their income, economically thrive and allow the South County’s agricultural history to continue into the future.

Regional food hubs have been identified by the USDA as a feasible model to advance local agriculture and agricultural start up endeavors. Fattoria Public Market will also include a food hub that provides cold and dry storage, production facilities, packing and distribution, and cooperative marketing services. These collaborative services will make it easier for farmers to gain entry into new and additional markets with high barriers to entry for them individually.

Fattoria Public Market will also be a gathering place for the community and will serve as an enhanced tourist destination within Morgan Hill. The Market will include an event facility for local public and private events, farm education programs to teach the public about the rich agricultural history of Santa Clara County, an operating farm and gardens on site, demonstration gardens, a plant nursery, winery and beer gardens, a Greenhouse Tasting Room serving local food within hours of harvest, and a food truck venue.

Fattoria Public Market will serve as a year-round destination for foodies of all ages to come together in a one of a kind space designed to unite the agricultural producers of our region with the local consumers that they serve. Its presence will support local agriculture, agritourism, and the arts while connecting South Santa Clara, San Benito, and Monterey
County producers to the Bay Area markets.

Why here in South Santa Clara County/
Morgan Hill?
Increased agricultural infrastructure in our community means:
• Improved efficiency and sustainability of the local food system and increased food availability.
• Increased access to healthy foods, especially fresh produce (fruits and vegetables), in underserved communities;
• Increased support for the continued viability of agriculture; • Increased focus on agritourism, creation of new jobs locally and development of new economic opportunities
• Opportunity for partnership with Silicon Valley Clean Energy for Agrivoltaics demonstration and usage
• Preservation of valuable farmlands
• Revenue Generation for Morgan Hill

4 City of Morgan Hill RFP for Agricultural Farming Businesses to Lease City-Owned Agricultural Land What is a Food Hub?
The USDA defines a food hub as a “business or organization that actively manages the aggregation, distribution, and marketing of course-identified food products primarily from local and regional producers to strengthen their ability to satisfy wholesale, retail, and institutional demand.” Agricultural infrastructure commonly is defined to encompass aggregation, packing, processing, storage, marketing and distribution capacity and facilities, including “food hubs.” The Food Hub is an extension of the core retail component of the Fattoria Public Market, extending the reach from individual retail consumers to industrial buyers.

What problems can it solve?
The challenge for Small-Medium Sized Agricultural Producers:

Limited Distribution and Marketing Capacity — Producers often don’t have the available capital or access to facilities to store, process, and distribute their products. Furthermore, due to limited staff or lack of experience, they are not always able to devote the attention necessary to develop successful business relationships with key wholesale buyers or have the resources to develop an effective marketing strategy by themselves.

The challenge for Institutional Buyers:

Logistics — Wholesale buyers often find it too costly to purchase products directly from numerous farms and prefer to reduce transaction costs by buying product from distributors.

Consequently, regional food hubs have emerged as an effective way to overcome these infrastructural and market barriers. For those smaller and mid-sized producers who wish to scale up their operations or diversify their market channels, food hubs offer a combination of production, distribution, and marketing services that allows them to gain entry into new and additional markets that would be difficult or impossible to access on their own. For larger producers, food hubs can provide the product-differentiation strategies and marketing services to ensure the best possible price in the market place.

Moreover, for wholesalers, distributors, retailers, and food service buyers who would like to purchase larger volumes of locally and regionally grown products, food hubs lower the procurement costs by providing a single point of purchase for consistent and reliable supplies of source-identified products from local and regional producers.

Regional food hubs are key mechanisms for creating large, consistent, reliable supplies of mostly locally or regionally produced foods. At the core of food hubs is a business management team that actively coordinates supply chain logistics. Food hubs work on the supply side with producers in areas such as sustainable production practices, production planning, season extension, packaging, branding, certification, and food safety—all of which is done to enable these producers to access wholesale customers, such as buyers for food service institutions and retail stores. Simultaneously, food hubs also work on the demand side by coordinating efforts with other distributors, processors, wholesale buyers, and even consumers to ensure they can meet the growing market demand for sourceidentified, sustainably produced, locally or regionally grown products. 4 Credit: Plaça del Mercat de Figueres Page 355 of 431
5 City of Morgan Hill RFP for Agricultural Farming Businesses to Lease City-Owned Agricultural Land Regional food hubs are increasing market access for local and regional producers. Institutional food buyers face
difficulty finding small and medium sized local producers who can provide a consistent supply of product. These hubs complement and add considerable value to the current food distribution system.

Regional food hubs are having significant economic, social, and environmental impacts within their communities. In
addition to core operational facilities, the Fattoria Public Market food hub can provide training and assistance in areas such as sustainable production, season extension, postharvest handling, branding, certification and food safety.

Public markets increase agritourism opportunities for all members of the community including hotels, restaurants, wineries, and travel and leisure activities. Agritourism is becoming increasingly popular in large and small communities across the country – and for good reason. Today’s travelers have become bored with mundane and predictable tourist
trap activities; instead, today’s travelers crave adventurous, immersive, and valuable experiences. Agri-tourism provides the unique opportunity of mutual benefit between both the community’s visitors and the local farms and businesses that help establish these location’s character and history. Through agri-tourism, cities and farms are able to teach the rich history of local agriculture through operations and leave a lasting impression upon curious visitors wanting to truly experience and connect with their food, drink, flora, and fauna.

Fattoria Public Market will be designed and constructed as a model for regenerative agriculture, architecture and building construction. The development seeks to demonstrate opportunities for zero waste local food infrastructure and regenerative agriculture that operates without the use
of fossil fuels by utilizing both bio-based practices and technological solutions to limit our extraction of natural resources such as energy and water. Energy efficiency will be achieved through bio-climatic architecture and design, rooftop solar, agrivoltaics, and wind energy; On-site water management including permeable surfaces, bioswales and
rainwater harvesting will be deployed for recharging the aquifer and reducing water use. Water efficiency including waterless urinals, composting toilets, low flow fixtures, drips, drip irrigation, and greywater treatment will be implemented.

Composting, waste management stations, and biodigester will be incorporated to turn compost and manure into nutrients, and back in the soil as a demonstration of regenerative farming. The diverse crops, pollinator gardens, farm animals, and bee farming altogether provide a rich biodiverse habitat for sustainable farming, education, and agricultural tourism.

Our Vision for Fattoria Public Market
The following programming elements for the Fattoria Public Market create a synergy that is not only engaging and
invites participation, but also educational and demonstrates sustainable living. The spaces, both interior and exterior, support adjacency of activities and encourages gathering of community agricultural and hospitality businesses.
• Main Building houses both the Indoor Public Market and the Regional Food Hub. The Indoor Public Market would
allow the community to have access to local, year-round agricultural products on a consistent basis. The space
would accommodate year-round producers that meet
the requirements of County Health Regulations (e.g. fish mongers, butchers). The Regional Food Hub encompassing
cold storage, dry storage, co-packing and collaborative services including packing, distribution and marketing. It also includes commercial kitchen for food processing and catering/food truck use.
• Outdoor Canopy for seasonal producers. These spaces
would allow seasonal agricultural producers an opportunity to market their products efficiently without the burden of attending parking lot farmers markets and pop-up roadside stands.
• Post and beam Indoor Event Facility and Outdoor Event Facility available for use by individuals, corporate and government entities, and large-scale public events,
workshops, retreat and celebration.
• Farm to Fork Demonstration and Tasting Venue – Farm to Fork- serving seasonal dishes featuring locally grown food that is prepared and served by local chefs within hours of being harvested.
• Outdoor Piazza will be centrally flanked by the Main
Building, Outdoor Canopy, Indoor Event Facility, and
Farm to Fork Tasting Venue. The design intent is for all indoor programming to easily expand into the Piazza to
accommodate outdoor gathering and seating. The Piazza
will host outdoor performances and varying gathering sizes while highlighting views of the farm.
• Wine and Beer Garden – allowing local winemakers and
brewers to collaborate on tastings and events.
• Co-op Farm onsite including livestock, composting,
demonstration farms, bee sanctuary, fungi lab, and gardens, and plant nursery. 3rd Party container vertical farming may also be incorporated on-site. Landscape berm might be provided along the highway to provide noise buffer.

4. Detailed Description of
Understanding of County Zoning
and Permitting
The County policies have identified this area for agricultural and resources preservation designating the site as appropriate for “Agricultural Medium Scale” land uses, designation within the “Scenic Roads Combining District,” and zoned “Agriculture Preservation.” To implement the land use and policies desired by the county, the proposed development plan aligns with the land use intent, zoning purpose, use regulations, and development standards for the A-20ac-sr zoning category of Santa Clara County. The intent is to create a mixed-use, sustainable, agriculture-based destination to demonstrate best practices through the creation of a Public Market and Food Hub.

A use permit will be required for the Event Structure and the Farm to Fork Tasting Venue to ensure that use of these elements can be supported by the site and to account for their environmental impacts. The Event Structure will be used for a variety of activities from educational to entertainment programming for people visiting the site and bringing people to the site. The Farm to Fork Tasting Venue will engage people in the preparation of local, site food resources through a test kitchen and on-site food offerings. Application will be made to the Santa Clara County Planning Commission for approval of the use permits as part of the entitlement process prior to development of the site.

All components described in this proposal are permitted under current zoning but may be subject to use permits and architectural site approval. Preliminary meetings have been held with key stakeholders in Santa Clara County who support this proposal and are supportive of its development on this parcel.

Permitted Uses:
• Food Hubs for local farmers and ranchers
• Operating Farm on site
• Demonstration Gardens
• Seed Starting and Plant Nursery
• Year-Round Indoor Farmers Market allowing farmers to sell directly to consumers
• Educational Programs and Field trips for educating
children and adults about the history of agriculture in the area as well as the future of farming
• Beer Garden and Wine Garden for local brewers and
vintners to sell direct to consumers.
• Greenhouse Tasting Room

5. Incorporation of Solar Agriculture
Component (Agrivoltaics)
One of the guiding principles of Fattoria Public Market is to educate the community, farmers and our policy makers about farming practices that are climate smart.

Agrivoltaics is a new form of solar energy for agricultural systems that can be demonstrated on-site. We have had
discussions with Tony Eulo at Silicon Valley Clean Energy and indicated a willingness to work with SVCE on an area dedicated to demonstration of an agrivoltaics system as part of the Climate Smart Agriculture program at Fattoria Public Market.

Some of the benefits of Agrivoltaics include:
• Farmers benefit from utilizing farmland to grow crops as well as produce energy
• Agrivoltaics protect certain plants and soils from the harmful effects of direct sun exposure all day, making them yield more, and by keeping the soil cooler they require less water.

6. Lease Payment and/or Desired
Financial Agreement with the City
It is our understanding that the City of Morgan Hill will continue with the existing organic farm lease on a month to month basis with existing tenant until such time as we have secured all necessary approvals and permits from Santa Clara County and commence construction.

At the start of construction and development Fattoria Public Market, lease payments would be made to the City of Morgan Hill at the rate of $13,000 per year. (Based on $500/acre per ag land value.)
Fattoria Public Market opens to the public and is operating at a net profit, the City of Morgan Hill will be paid an additional 10% of net revenue from operations. (e.g. Net Revenue in 2026 is $500,000, the City of Morgan Hill would receive an additional $50,000)
Lessee to have an exclusive option to purchase the property anytime during the lease term at the unimproved Agricultural Land Value at the time option is exercised.

Lease term to be 15 years.

CITY's determination thereof shall be binding on LESSEE.

7.3.2 If such repairs cannot be made within one hundred eighty (180) days from the date of such damage or such damage is not so covered by insurance, CITY shall have the option within thirty (30) days after the date of such damage to notify LESSEE of its election to terminate this LEASE as of a date specified in such notice, which date shall not be less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days after notice is given.

7.3.3 In case of termination, the Base Rent and Additional Rent shall be reduced by a proportionate amount based upon the extent to which such damage interfered with the business carried on by LESSEE in the PREMISES, and LESSEE shall pay such reduced Base Rent and Additional Rent up to the date of termination. CITY agrees to refund to LESSEE any Base Rent and Additional Rent previously paid for any period of time subsequent to such date of termination.

If CITY is required or elects to make any repairs, reconstruction or restoration of any damage or destruction to the PREMISES under any of the provisions of this Section 7, LESSEE shall not be entitled to any damages by reason of any inconvenience or loss sustained by LESSEE as a result thereof.

During the period commencing with the date of any such damage or destruction that CITY is required or elects hereunder to repair, reconstruct or restore, and ending with the completion of such repairs, reconstruction or restoration the Base Rent and Additional Rent shall be proportionately reduced based upon the extent to which such damage and the making of such repairs by CITY shall interfere with the business carried on by LESSEE in the PREMISES.

8.1.2 LESSEE or any of its officers, employees, agents, invitees, subtenants or licensees violates any other term, covenant or condition of this LEASE and such violation continues beyond thirty (30) days after CITY has provided written notice thereof to LESSEE, or if the nature of the cure of such term, covenant or condition reasonably requires more than thirty (30) days to remedy, if LESSEE does not commence the cure of such term, covenant or condition within such thirty (30) day period and diligently pursue such cure to completion thereafter,

8.1.3 LESSEE ceases to use the PREMISES or to operate its services as set forth in Exhibit B beyond thirty (30) days after CITY has given written notice to resume operation, or

8.2 Remedy. On the occurrence of any such event of default, CITY may elect to terminate this LEASE (which termination shall be evidenced by a written notice of termination from CITY to LESSEE) and resume possession of the PREMISES, thereafter using the same for its own purposes without having to account to LESSEE therefor. Any partial payment of any payment due to CITY under this LEASE from LESSEE and accepted by CITY shall not render ineffective any notice given by CITY to the LESSEE pursuant to the terms of this LEASE or California Code of Civil Procedure Section 1161, et seq., or any successor statute thereto.

8.3 Default by City. CITY shall not be in default unless CITY fails to perform its obligations under this LEASE within a reasonable time, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after written notice by LESSEE to CITY specifying wherein CITY has failed to perform such obligations. If the nature of CITY'S obligation is such that more than thirty (30) days are required for performance, then CITY shall not be in default if CITY commences performance within such thirty (30) day period and thereafter diligently prosecutes the same to completion. LESSEE'S obligation to provide written notice to CITY of a default by CITY is limited to those instances where knowledge of CITY'S default is within the actual knowledge of LESSEE.

8.4 Remedies: If CITY fails to cure a prospective default within the time periods outlined above, LESSEE shall have the option to cure the default or to terminate this LEASE, in addition to any other remedies at law not inconsistent herewith.

Should LESSEE elect to cure the default, all reasonable costs associated with such cure, including reasonable attorneys' fees incurred and awarded as a result of any legal action or proceeding brought to enforce or interpret this LEASE (if any), shall be reimbursed by CITY to LESSEE within thirty (30) days of receipt of LESSEE'S invoice for said costs which shall be accompanied by invoice and receipts to document LESSEE’S cost to cure said default, and by any Court Order awarding

reasonable attorney’s fees incurred to cure said default. However, upon CITY'S failure to so reimburse LESSEE within thirty (30) days of receipt of LESSEE’S invoice for said costs, at LESSEE'S option, said costs shall be deducted from rent due hereunder.
