Councihnember Santos asked for and received clarification that the agreement will allow the City to inlpose certain conditions on the lessee. Councilmember Badger related concerns from residents regarding trucks being double- parked as they exit Costco. He stated he hoped Trans-Box understands that failure to comply with the ternlS of the agreement would put any future contract in jeopardy and that the Police Department steps up enforcement of the parking issues. Councilmenlber N ardine asked how the City could modify other ternlS of the lease but not the lease amount. Mr. Udemezue noted the language in the lease specifies that the fee increase be tied to the CPr. Mr. J ermanis noted Caltrans allows the City to control the use of the property under the freeways, and the City has determined leasing to adjacent businesses to be the best option. The renewal of this lease gives the City the opportunity to improve upon the situation and address some of the concerns with the existing lease.
