RECOMMENDATIONS

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Housing Authority of the County of Contra Costa’s Executive Director to terminate the lease with Pittsburg Pre-school and Community Council, Inc., for property located at 1760 Chester Drive, Pittsburg, CA, and AUTHORIZE County Counsel to pursue legal action to regain possession of the property.

BACKGROUND

On April 13, 1994, the Housing Authority of the County of Contra Costa (Housing Authority), entered into a lease with Pittsburg Pre-School Coordinating Council, Inc (Tenant) for property located at 1760 Chester Drive Pittsburg, California (Lease). The Lease requires the Tenant to operate a preschool or other community activities at the property. However, the Tenant is currently in violation of the Lease as they are not using the building as a day care center (or other community activities). In addition, the Tenant’s corporate status has been suspended by both the Secretary of State and the Franchise Tax Board, and the Tenant does not have general liability insurance, worker's compensation insurance, employer’s liability insurance, or property insurance.

BACKGROUND (CONT'D)

Housing Authority staff requests the authority to terminate the Lease and to pursue legal action against Tenant through County Counsel to regain possession of the property.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION

Failure to terminate the Lease and pursue legal action against Tenant would result in the Housing Authority being unable to regain possession of the Housing Authority’s property.
