to be presented
CONSENT CALENDAR
DATE: July 12, 1994
SUBJECT: Renewal of Headstart Lease Agreement
DEPARTMENT: Parks, Recreation and Community Services
BACKGROUND
On August 10, 1992, the City of Santa Clarita and Latin American Civic Association entered into
a Lease Agreement with the William S. Hart School District for use of the Walnut Street property
in Newhall for the Headstart program. The lease agreement was for a term of two years. The
lease will expire on August 10, 1994.
The City has kept the future of this program in mind in the City's planning efforts. To this end it
has explored other site alternatives for long term placement and possible expansion of the
Headstart program. However, these alternative sites do not meet the City's immediate placement
needs during the transition to another site. City staff has discussed our position with the William
S. Hart School District and has written a letter to the District requesting a renewal of our current
lease agreement for an additional two year term. The District has informed the City that they will
be able to extend the lease.
City staff believes that renewing the lease with the District is the best alternative for the short-
term. It will allow the City to keep the Headstart program open at its current location where it is
greatly needed. Equally important, extending the lease will prevent any disruption in services to
families and their children and will give the City the opportunity to continue it efforts in locating
a permanent location. The City has included the annual lease costs in the amount of $4,800 in
the City's FY 1994-95 budget under account number 01-9000-227.
