TO: Mayor Richard C. Irvin and City Council
FROM: Deborah Lang, Assistant Corporation Counsel, Law Department
DATE: September 24, 2019
SUBJECT:
A Resolution authorizing the City Clerk to maintain all original copies of leases involving City property.
PURPOSE:
The purpose of this resolution is to centralize where leases are kept. If a department is looking for a lease involving City property, there will be a central location rather than contacting a few different departments.
BACKGROUND:
Previously, the original leases were kept with the department working with a certain building the City owned. This could mean that Economic Development, the Law Department, or Fleet and Facilities may have a copy of a lease for a certain property.
DISCUSSION:
Storing the original leases on City buildings and properties with the Clerk will benefit the City. It will save time for employees searching for leases. Additionally, centralizing the paperwork prior to implementing the new database software, should save time and resources.
IMPACT STATEMENT:
The approval of this resolution would allow a streamlined, central location for the leases.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
We respectfully request that this item move forward to City Council for review and recommendation for approval.
