Explanation
Background: This legislation authorizes the Director of Finance and Management to execute a First Amendment to Lease Agreement with AARP Foundation, an existing Tenant located on the first floor at 1393 East Broad Street. Due to modification of the building to create an ADA compliant restroom on the First Floor, the AARP Foundation Premises must be altered thus requiring a change to the leased space as depicted on Exhibit “A” of the Lease. The Amendment will change the description of the office space leased as the Premises and does not result in any change in the annual rent.
Fiscal Impact: None ($0.00).
