RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Public Works Director, or designee, to execute a first amendment to lease with Pamela Bisio Despres, Surviving Trustee of the Amended and Restated Bart A. Bisio and Jane L. Bisio Revocable Trust dated November 8, 2000, and Earl D. Dunivan, Jr. and Wendy Dunivan, Co-Trustees of the Earl and Wendy Dunivan Family Trust to extend the term through June 30, 2025 for continued use of the building located at 627 Ferry Street in Martinez for continued occupancy by the Public Defender’s Office – Alternate Defender’s Division. The annual rent is $85,596 with annual increases thereafter and 2 two-year renewal terms.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The amendment will obligate the County to pay rent of approximately $454,428 over the five-year term. (100% General Fund)


BACKGROUND:

The County has been leasing the premises at 627 Ferry Street in Martinez since 2014 for the Public Defender’s Office – Alternate Defender’s Division operations. The County provides legal representation to indigent persons charged with a crime that the Public Defender’s Office is unable to represent in court proceedings due to conflict of interest or unavailability. This extension will provide for the continuation of those services at this location.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Not authorizing the amendment to lease for the continued operation of the Alternate Defender’s Division at this location would require finding another suitable location at increased rent, together with the associated expenses of moving and constructing new tenant improvements.
