located at 1519 Circle Park at no cost; and

La Primera Baptist Church for office space at 1519 Circle Park to be used by neighborhood patrol
officers. This space replaces office space formerly used by the Police Department at 1600 Circle Park,
where the landlord notified the Police Department on March 6, 2000 that she did not want to renew the
lease.
When the lease was terminated at 1600 Circle Park, the Police Department moved into the location at
La Primera Baptist Church, 1519 Circle Park, and has occupied this space since April 1, 2000. Real
Property began working on a lease agreement, and the agreement was approved by Reverend Angel
Lara on May 10, 2000.
The lease term is for one year, with two one-year options to renew. The City will pay no rent. All
utilities are to be paid by the landlord. The telephone service is provided by the Hispanic Chamber of
Commerce.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Finance Director certifies that this action has no material effect on City funds.
