PURPOSE:
Resolution authorizing the City of Aurora to renew a Commercial Lease Agreement with Riverfront Playhouse, for the commercial space located at 13 S. Water Street.
BACKGROUND:
In a continued effort to standardize leases, the Department of Neighborhood Standards (DNS) will be presenting all leases to the Council prior to their expiration for review and approval.
The City of Aurora originally entered into a lease agreement with Riverfront Playhouse for this space back in 2008. The space is approximately 6,000 sq. ft. and is used for an independent theater. The agreement for this space has been continued on a year to year basis.
DISCUSSION:
The attached lease agreement proposes a two year term and can be renewed if mutually agreed by the City and tenant. The monthly rent for this space is $400 per month. In addition, a security deposit of $400 will be paid at the execution of this lease agreement.
IMPACT STATEMENT:
The approval of this lease agreement would allow for Riverfront to continue operating their community theatre in a space that would otherwise sit vacant.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
To approve the renewal of this Commercial Lease agreement for the space at 13 S Water St.
