HomeMy WebLinkAbout13 - Back Bay Science Center SubleaseCITY OF NEWPORT BEACH CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT Agenda Item No. 13 January 22, 2008 TO: HONORABLE MAYOR AND MEMBERS OF THE CITY COUNCIL FROM: City Manager's Office Dave Kiff, Assistant City Manager 949 - 644 -3002 or dkiff@ city. newport-beach.ca. us SUBJECT: Update: City-County Sublease for Water Quality Lab Wing of the Back Bay Science Center ISSUE: Should the City Council enter into a Sublease with the County of Orange to allow the County to equip, staff, and run the Water Quality Lab Wing of the BBSC? RECOMMENDATION: Authorize the Mayor to execute a Sublease with the County of Orange for the Water Quality Lab wing of the Back Bay Science Center, such Sublease to become effective upon approval by the Orange County Board of Supervisors. BACKGROUND: The Back Bay Science Center (BBSC) on Shellmaker Island in the Upper Newport Bay Ecological Reserve is a multi - partnered project that is open, but the "grand opening" has not yet occurred. The planning and funding partners include: • The California Department of Fish and Game (DFG); • The County of Orange Health Care Agency (County); • The University of California at Irvine (UCI); • The City of Newport Beach (City); • The California Coastal Commission (CCC); • The State Coastal Conservancy (SCC); • The Irvine Company; • The Miocean Foundation and Pacific Life; and • The Newport Bay Naturalists & Friends (NBNF). There are several documents associated with the BBSC, but the main one is the "Cooperative Agreement." This Agreement describes the relationship between and the roles of four of the major users of the BBSC (County, City, DFG, and UCI). It also describes the overall goals of the BBSC in terms of water quality research and the teaching lab. The Cooperative Agreement refers to two documents called the "City Lease" (a lease of the Water Quality Lab Wing between the City and DFG) and the "County Sublease" (a lease of the same premises — the Water Quality Lab Wing — between the City and the County) as follows: BBSC — City- County Sublease January 2$ 2008 Page 2 CITY LEASE: The City Lease shall require the City to maintain and repair the BBSC structures (other than minor capital improvements such as roof replacement), improvements and site (except for the Parking Common Area maintenance for which UCI is responsible under the UCI Lease) at all times in good condition and repair, to maintain the insurance set forth in Exhibit F and shall include such other terms and conditions as the City and DFG agree. The City Lease shall grant the City during the lease term reasonable access to, and non - exclusive use of, those portions of Shellmaker (other than DFG work stations and storage areas) that are part of the BBSC Project and to which access is necessary for the City to perform its obligations under this Agreement or the City Lease. COUNTY SUBLEASE: Disbursement of these (County Tobacco Tax) funds ($1.23 million) will be governed by the provisions of this Agreement and the County Sublease (as defined below) with the understanding that the City will advance, for a period up to 180 days, any funds that the County is required to pay pursuant to this Agreement. The County's commitment is contingent on the approval and execution of a sublease with the City (County Sublease) for the approximate 3,980 square foot OC Water Quality Lab wing (Lab ling) of the OC Water Quality Lab /Stor Building. On January 23, 2007, the City Council reviewed a detailed staff report about the BBSC. Readers should review that report for additional detail about the Project. A later item on March 13, 2007, authorized the Mayor to execute the City Lease and the County Sublease. Council approved these actions unanimously. The City Lease was executed, but the County Sublease was not executed pending an additional review by the State of California. As a result of that review, the City and the County have proposed a few changes to the Sublease that the Council approved last March. These changes primarily reflect the wishes of the State of California AND the fact that the Newport Beach City Charter prohibits leases of more than 25 years without direct voter approval. The most significant changes in the Sublease (from the version Council saw in March 2007) are as follows: • If the County is forced to leave the Premises early due to a default by the City of its obligations under the City Lease (from DFG), the City must repay, on a pro -rated basis, a portion of the County's $1.23 million (in non - inflated dollars). BBSC — City- County Sublease January 22, 2008 Page 3 • If the City and the State are unable to agree to enter into the option periods described in the City Lease, then the City must repay, on a pro -rated basis, a portion of the County's $1.23 million (in non - inflated dollars) reflecting the amount of years that the County was or is unable to remain in the Water Quality Lab wing. These two items attempt to protect the County's dedication of $1.23 million to the BBSC in exchange for a 30 -year stay at the BBSC. If the County leaves early on its own, no repayment is required. The City Attorney and the City's Risk Manager have reviewed and approved the attached version of the Sublease. Staff is confident in recommending Council's approval of this item. Environmental Review: A Mitigated Negative Declaration was prepared and processed to assess the environmental impact associated with constructing the Back Bay Science Center. Identified mitigation measures have been included in the project design. The California Department of Fish and Game was the lead agency for the environmental review and the documentation was completed in September 2003.

When calculating the cost of CITY Services the parties shall refer to Clause 13 (REIMBURSEMENT FOR COST OF CITY SERVICES) of this Sublease. 13. REIMBURSEMENT FOR COST OF CITY SERVICES A. For the purpose of this clause, the cost of services provided by CITY for the COUNTY ( "CITY Services ") shall include only the following: BBSC City-County Sublease 7of18 1 2 1. Trash, Water and Sewer Services. 3 2. Landscape Maintenance Services. 4 3. Maintenance and Repair Services (including preventative maintenance). 5 4. Cost for major repairs and/or replacements to the building and parking area that constitutes 6 capital improvements or replacements (such as roof replacement, parking lot resurfacing 7 and/or replacement). 8 9 The above stated CITY Services shall only be applicable to and determined based on the "Premises Used 10 to Determine County's Proportionate Share of Cost of City Services for the BBSC" as described in 11 "Exhibit Al - Premises Used to Determine County's Proportionate Share of Cost of City Services for the 12 BBSC" and shown in "Exhibit B1 - Premises Used to Determine County's Proportionate Share of Cost 13 of City Services for the BBSC" of this Sublease. 14 15 For the purpose of making payments pursuant to this section, the cost of CITY Services allocable to 16 COUNTY and payable to CITY shall not exceed thirty-two percent (32 %) of the rentable area of the 17 Back Bay Science Center within which the Premises resides. This percentage is calculated by dividing 18 the size of the Premises (3,980 square feet) by the rentable area of the Back Bay Science Center (12,409 19 square feet). Consequently, COUNTY shall only be responsible for thirty -two percent (321/o) of the 20 costs of CITY's Services. 21 22 B. Parkins Lot Maintenance. With respect to parking lot maintenance, as defined herein, 23 COUNTY shall pay its proportionate share of such costs, based on the average number of parking spaces 24 it uses for its employees and invitees. For instance, if the average number of parking spaces used by the 25 COUNTY is twelve (12) per month, then its proportionate share of parking lot maintenance costs per 26 year is eighteen percent (18 %). This percentage is calculated by dividing the number of spaces (12) by 27 the total number of spaces (67) available. Parking lot maintenance costs, as referred to in this 28 Paragraph, shall include only resurfacing, restripping and oil sealant costs. General maintenance costs, 29 such as sweeping and trash pickup, are difficult to segregate, so these costs shall be handled pursuant to 30 Paragraph 13(A). 31 32 C.

In the event COUNTY questions the adequacy of any portion of the 12 Supporting Data provided by CITY, and COUNTY requests additional Supporting Data, the due date for 13 payment of the adjustment shall be ninety (90) days from the date COUNTY receives the additional data 14 required to substantiate CITY's claim. In the event payment is due, said payment shall be made in a 15 lump sum within ninety (90) days following receipt of said Summary Statement and Supporting Data. 16 17 Should CITY fail to provide said Summary Statement and supporting documentation within one 18 hundred twenty (120) days from said anniversary date, any claim for reimbursement pursuant to this 19 clause shall be deemed waived by the CITY. Notwithstanding the foregoing, CITY Services shall not 20 include expenses for the cost of correcting building defects (latent or otherwise). 21 22 14.
