Explanation
Background: This legislation authorizes the Director of Finance and Management to execute those documents necessary to enter into a Second Amendment to Lease Agreement to extend the lease with Beaumont 4522, LLC to add three one (1) year automatic renewal terms options to the Lease Agreement for office and clinic space located at 4550 Indianola Avenue, Columbus, Ohio, occupied by Columbus Public Health’s Women, Infants and Children (WIC) Program and repeals Ordinance #2096-2019, passed July 29, 2019.
WIC is a supplemental nutrition program for women (pregnant, postpartum and breastfeeding), infants, and children under five years of age. The extension of the Lease Agreement for 4550 Indianola Avenue is necessary due to the inability to come to a final agreement for the lease of alternative clinic and office space as authorized by Ordinance #2096-2019. The WIC program wishes to continue to occupy its current leased space for up to an additional three years in order to allow additional time to evaluate service delivery in this geographic area. The Real Estate Management Office has negotiated an extension of the lease with the landlord to allow for three additional one (1) year renewal terms. The first extended one-year automatic renewal term for the existing WIC Clinic at 4550 Indianola Avenue will commence on October 1, 2019.
Fiscal Impact: Funding for the payment of rent for the first extended one-year automatic renewal term is authorized by Ordinance 2397-2019.
Emergency Action: This legislation is presented as an emergency in order for the WIC Clinic located at the 4550 Indianola Avenue to continue providing program services to the community without interruption.
