SUMMARY
The City and HARD first entered into a Master Agreement and Lease in 1970 for City-owned parks. Through the agreement, HARD assumes the responsibility of operating and maintaining the park sites for a nominal rent of $1.00 per year. The agreement had been renewed approximately every 10 years through 2021. In June 2021, Council authorized the City Manager to execute a one-year Master Lease with HARD for City-owned parks, which included a timeline and process to create operational standards that can be included in a future lease agreement. Staff is seeking Council authorization to extend the existing agreement through October 15, 2022, to continue conversations with HARD about lease terms and operational standards.
