Item No. 12 048
Date: December 28, 2011
Item/Subject: ORDER, Extending Lease Agreement with Penobscot County for Parking Spaces
in Court Street Parking Lot
Responsible Department: Community & Economic Development
Commentary:
In March of 2010 the City entered a Lease Agreement with Penobscot County for the lease of 75
parking spaces in the Court Street Parking Lot which expires on December 31, 2011. The rental rate
is tied to the monthly permit parking fee for the Court Street Lot as set by the City Council. The City
and County wish to extend the Lease Agreement for another two year period. The Lease Agreement
has provisions in Article VII whereby if the City disrupts the parking leased by the County for the
demolition of the former Police Department building or expansion of the parking lot, the City will offer
the County alternate parking locations in the downtown at the same rate. The only other change to
the Lease Agreement would be adding to the provisions in Article VII, the possibility of renovation of
the former Police Department building.
This Council Order would authorize extension of the Lease Agreement to December 31, 2013.
