The new lease agreement would also continue the City’s efforts to standardize our Commercial Leases. Rent for the lease agreement would be $200 per month. In addition, a security deposit of $200 will be paid at the execution of this new lease agreement.
IMPACT STATEMENT:
The approval of this commercial lease agreement would allow for Mr. Lo Destro to continue his operation in a space that would otherwise become vacant.
