SUBJECT:
San Mateo Public Library Foundation Operating Lease – Amendment RECOMMENDATION:
Approve an Amendment to the Property Lease and Operating Agreement with the San Mateo Public Library Foundation to extend the lease for an additional year commencing on April 1, 2024, through March 31, 2025; and authorize its execution by the City Librarian.
BACKGROUND:
The San Mateo Public Library Foundation (SMPLF) leases office space in the Main Library to accommodate Foundation employees who perform fund development duties in support of the Library Foundation's mission. The Commercial Property Lease Agreement and Operating Agreement between the City of San Mateo and San Mateo Public Library Foundation was signed on December 14, 2007. Subsequent lease extensions through March 31, 2024 have been approved by the City Council. This Amendment represents a one-year extension of the lease agreement on April 1, 2024 through March 31, 2025. In FY 2023-24, the Library Foundation awarded $180,000 for support of programs and collections. The successful 2022 and 2023 fundraising events made it possible for Library's cultural committees to provide cultural and educational events to the public as well enhance Library's general collection.
BUDGET IMPACT:
In consideration of the financial support the SMPLF fulfills on behalf of the San Mateo Public Library, the rental amount of the lease will continue to be set at the nominal rate of $12 per annum.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
This lease is not a project subject to CEQA, is not a project subject to CEQA, because it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant effect on the environment. (CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3).)
