ISSUE STATEMENT
In August 2003, the City Council adopted Council Resolution 4773 which allowed the private, non-
profit Emerald Empire Council on Aging (EECA) to provide senior services at the Kaufman Center for
up to two years at $1.00 per year, with future renewal at the discretion of the City Manager for a term of
up to five years "at a rate determined to be fair market rental value." The City Manager is prepared to
enter into a new lease with EECA for a five-year term, which will require EECA to increase its payment
for use of the building over the term of the lease. However, the proposed terms continue to be below
fair market value, and the council is requested to adopt a revised resolution which will enable the City
Manager to recover less than fair market value for lease of the Kaufman Center.
BACKGROUND
In August 2003, the City Council adopted Council Resolution 4773 which allowed EECA to provide
senior services at the Kaufman Center at $1 per year, with an initial one-year term renewable for a
second year based upon a review of the outcomes achieved. The resolution provided for renewal of the
lease for a period of up to five years, at the discretion of the City Manager and "at a rate determined to
be fair market rental value". Resolution 4773 is included as Attachment A.
The 2003 resolution states that the council found the services provided by EECA to be of value to the
City, and that the initial lease terms provided a fair return to the City for the use of the center. However,
the council also made it clear during the discussion on the resolution that EECA was expected to begin
contributing to the major maintenance of the center after the initial two-year establishment period.
The EECA is nearing the end of its lease with the City for use of the Kaufman Center. The existing
lease was extended until September 1, 2005, to allow the council to consider the proposed new lease
terms.
EECA wants to continue providing services in the Kaufman Center but is not yet financially able to pay
either market rent or the full cost of maintenance. Rather than terminating EECA's use of the Kaufman
House at this time, the City Manager is willing to enter into a new lease with EECA which includes a
subsidized, but increasing, payment for use of the building over the term of the lease. The new lease is
included as Attachment B.
L:\CMO\2005 Council Agendas\M050718\S0507182F.doc
As a condition of the renewal of EECA's lease, the City Manager is establishing the expectation that
EECA will pay rent that, over time, will offset the ongoing costs of building and grounds maintenance,
though not recovering the full value of the use of the center.
While the initial lease rate will not cover current annual maintenance costs, the lease schedule will
enable the City to come closer to recovering the regular maintenance costs by the end of the five-year
term. Larger repair projects as listed in the Facility Condition Report would still need to be done from
the General Capital Projects Fund. During the term of the lease, EECA will be expected to continue to
provide minor maintenance, repairs, and upgrades needed maintain the condition of the premises to at
least the current level of quality.
2005 commercial rental space rates in this area of town vary widely, starting at about $.50 per square
foot per month and going up to approximately $1.75 square foot per month. The current average is
about $1.00. Under the terms of the proposed lease agreement, EECA would initially pay $0.015 (1.5
cents) per square foot, increasing to $0.24 (24 cents) per square foot over the five-year term of the lease.
The lease rates proposed for the lease with EECA for the 2005-2010 term are:
Monthly Annual Cost /SF/month
Year One $125 $1250' $.015 / SF
Year Two $250 $3000 $.03 / SF
Year Three $500 $6000 $.06 / SF
Year Four $1000 $12000 $. 12/SF
Year Five $2000 $24000 $.24/SF
*Year One will be ten months instead of twelve due to extension of the current lease to
September 1, 2005.
Due to the level of subsidy the City is providing for EECA's use of the Kaufman Center, lease
provisions have been included which require EECA to share revenue obtained from subleasing in order
to come closer to meeting the maintenance expenditures. The City recognizes that it will take more time
for EECA to establish funding sources that will allow its rent payments to cover full maintenance costs.
It is expected that EECA will establish partnerships with other organizations over the next few years to
increase services provided at the center, as well as to generate more operating revenue.
To meet the objective of recovering maintenance costs, the lease includes a revenue sharing requirement
that would take effect once EECA's revenues from subleasing reach a floor of $1,000 per month. The
amount of revenue from subleases above $1,000 per month would be split equally between EECA and
the City. This floor of $1,000 per month is based on EECA's earlier budget projecting $12,000 in rental
revenues. The revenue sharing with the City would occur only ifEECA meets the projected rental
income. In any event, the total monthly payment to the City will not exceed $2000.00 for the term of
this lease, which provides an incentive for EECA to maximize rental revenue while protecting the
public' s interest in improving the return on the private use of a City asset.
The City Manager believes that this proposal is a reasonable compromise for the City in partnering with
EECA, and that City Council adoption of Resolution 4846 is a reasonable approach to balancing the
desire to receive fair market rent for use of the Kaufman Center with continued provision of EECA's
services to the public.

RELATED CITY POLICIES
This proposal attempts to balance the City Council policy on EFFECTIVE AND ACCOUNTABLE
MUNICIPAL GOVERNMENT to work openly, collaboratively, and fairly with the community to
achieve measurable and positive outcomes, and the policy on FAIR, STABLE AND ADEQUATE
FINANCIAL RESOURCES by implementing lease terms that achieve a fair and equitable system of
revenues adequate to maintain and deliver municipal services
COUNCIL OPTIONS
The council has three options. Option 1 is to adopt the proposed resolution enabling the City Manager
to continue leasing of the Kaufman Center to EECA at less than fair market value, under the terms
outlined in this AlS and attachments.
Option 2 is to recommend modifications to the resolution and/or terms of the new lease to clarify the
council' s expectations on the return desired from EECA for its use of a publicly owned building.
Option 3 is to not adopt or amend this resolution, effectively retaining the council's original direction
that further leasing of the Kaufman Center by EECA be at a rate determined by the City Manager to be
at fair market value. At this time, EECA would not be able to meet this financial requirement, and
would have to cease its use of the Kaufman Center. If this were to occur, the City Manager would return
to the council with a proposal on initiating a public process to request proposals from other
organizations to provide services at the Kaufman Center, or on other disposal of the property.
CITY MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION
The City Manager recommends that the council adopt Resolution 4846, enabling the City Manager to
enter into the lease extension with EECA under the terms set out in Attachment B, to be effective
September 1, 2005, with an end date of June 30, 2010.
SUGGESTED MOTION
Move to adopt Resolution 4846 authorizing the City Manager to lease the Kaufman Center to the
Emerald Empire Council on Aging.

RESOLUTION NO. 4773
A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING EXECUTION OF LEASE
WITH EMERALD EMPIRE COUNCIL ON AGING.
The City Council of the City of Eugene finds that:
A. Emerald Empire Council on Aging is a nonprofit entity formed in 2003 for the
purpose of continuing and expanding service programs for seniors that were formerly sponsored by
Lane Community College at the City-owned building known as the Kaufman Senior Center.
B. As a newly formed organization, Emerald Empire Council on Aging is reliant upon
gifts, grants and donations for its support and is working to expand its service programs and become
self-sufficient.
C. The use of the Kaufman Senior Center by Emerald Empire Council on Aging benefits
the City by providing needed accessible senior services, recreation and a seniors' community center
within the Jefferson Westside neighborhood.
D. On May 21, 2003, the City's Budget Committee approved the use of $20,237 for
fiscal year 2004 from the Kaufman Trust Fund to provide maj or maintenance costs at the Kaufman
Senior Center to facilitate a proposal by Emerald Empire Council on Aging to continue to provide a
volunteer and community oriented senior center out of the Kaufman Senior Center and annex.
E. The City Manager has determined that leasing of the Kaufman Senior Center annex is
impractical because of the extensive number of repairs and renovation that would be required to
make the property suitable for use by the public.
F. The City Manager proposes to lease the Kaufman Senior Center to Emerald Empire
Council on Aging for an initial one-year lease at $1.00, with the option to renew for a second year at
$1.00 depending upon outcomes achieved. After the first two years the lease may be renewed at the
discretion of the City Manager for a term of up to five (5) years at a rate determined to be the fair
market rental value. During all lease terms the City' s obligation to provide maintenance and repair
shall be limited to the availability of sums budgeted from the Kaufman Trust for such purpose, and
the City will have no obligation to make capital improvements to the property.
G. The Kaufman Senior Center has not been declared surplus property and it not subject
to a development plan.
H. Under Section 2.872 of the Eugene Code, 1971 the City Manager has authority to
present a proposal for the disposition of real property that is not within a development plan, that has
Resolution- 1
not been declared surplus property and for which no other procedure is specified in the Code or a
Council-approved intergovernmental agreement to the City Council for its action. The City
Manager has requested that the Council authorize him to enter into a lease as described in Recital F
with Emerald Empire Council on Aging.
I. The City Council specifically finds that the use of the Kaufman Senior Center by
Emerald Empire Council on Aging as a center for support services, recreation, and as a community
center for seniors will result in a benefit to the City comparable to the fair market rent of the
property to be leased.
NOW, THEREFORE,
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EUGENE, a
Municipal Corporation of the State of Oregon, as follows:
Section 1. Based on the above findings, which are hereby adopted, and pursuant to Section
2.872 of the Eugene Code, 1971, the City Manager is authorized to execute on behalf of the City a
Lease Agreement with the Emerald Economic Council on Aging for the Kaufman Senior Center.
The Lease shall be for an initial term of one-year at $1.00, with the option to renew for a second year
at $1.00 depending upon outcomes achieved. After the first two years the lease may be renewed at
the discretion of the City Manager for a term of up to five (5) years at a rate determined to be the fair
market rental value. During all lease terms the City will have no obligation to make capital
improvements to the property, and the City's obligation to repair and maintain the premises shall be
subject to the availability of budgeted funds derived from the Kaufman Trust. The lease shall
contain such other terms and conditions as are agreed to by the City Manager and are consistent with
this Resolution.
Section 2. The City Recorder is requested to forward a copy of this Resolution to the
Emerald Empire Council on Aging.
The foregoing Resolution adopted the 13th the day of August, 2003.

written notice of any material change, non-renewal or cancellation. A copy of all such policies, or
certificates thereof, reasonably satisfactory to City, shall be delivered to City within 30 days of signing

15. Hazardous Materials.
15.1 Definition of Hazardous Materials. As used herein, the term "hazardous materials" shall
mean any materials that, because of their quantity, concentration or physical, chemical or infectious
characteristics may cause or pose a present or potential hazard to human health or the environment
when improperly used, stored, disposed of, transported, or otherwise handled. This term includes, but
is not limited to, petroleum, crude oil, or any hazardous or toxic substance regulated under the
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act, the Comprehensive Environment Response
Compensation and Liability Act, or any other state, federal or local laws relating to the protection of
human health or the environment.
15.2 Use of Hazardous Materials. Lessee shall not cause or permit any hazardous materials to
be brought upon, kept, or used in or about the Premises by Lessee, its agents, employees,
contractors or invitees without prior written consent of City. City does hereby consent to Lessee's
bringing onto the Premises copiers, copier supplies and other office supplies. In the event separate
storage facilities are required to store hazardous materials, the cost of construction of such hazardous
storage facilities will be borne by Lessee. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this lease,
under no circumstances will hazardous materials be disposed of on the Premises.
15.3 Indemnification for Hazardous Materials. Lessee shall indemnify, defend and hold City

Kaufman Senior Center Lease Page 7
harmless from any and all claims, judgments, damages, penalties, fines, costs, liabilities, or losses
(including without limitation, diminution in value of the Premises, damages for the loss or restriction
on use of rentable or usable space or any amenity of the Premises, damages arising from any
adverse impact on marketing of the Premises, and sums paid in settlement of claims, attorney fees,
consultant fees and expert fees) which arise during or after the lease term because of the
contamination by hazardous materials as a result of the use or activities of Lessee, Lessee's agents,
contractors and invitees. This indemnification includes, without limitation, costs incurred in connection
with any investigation of site conditions or any cleanup, remedial, removal or restoration work
required by any federal, state or local governmental agency or political subdivision because of the
presence of hazardous materials in the soil or ground water on or coming from the Premises, Without
limiting the foregoing, if the presence of any hazardous material on the Premises caused or permitted
by Lessee, or Lessee's agents, contractors or invitees, results in contamination of the Premises,
Lessee shall promptly take all actions at its sole expense as are necessary to return the Premises to
the condition existing prior to the release of any such hazardous material. Nevertheless, City shall
have the right to order Lessee to cease any cleanup or mitigation activity if such actions would
potentially have any material adverse long-term or short-term effect on the Premise. The foregoing
indemnity shall survive the expiration or termination of this lease.
16. Assignment and Subleasing. Lessee's interest in this lease shall not be assigned or sub-let, without
City's prior written consent. Lessee acknowledges that the restriction on assignment and subleasing
are intended to give City sole discretion concerning what persons or organizations occupy and use the
Premises. Notwithstanding any provisions of law or otherwise, Lessee agrees that in the event of an
assignment or sublease, Lessee remains fully liable under this agreement.
17. Holding Over - Tenancy at Sufferance. If, after expiration or earlier termination of this lease,
Lessee shall remain in possession of the Premises and improvements, with or without the express
written consent of City, then Lessee shall be a tenant at sufferance only, at a rental rate equal to the
fair market rental value of the Premises at the date of termination or expiration.
18. Condition at End of Term. Upon expiration of the lease term or earlier termination, Lessee shall
deliver all keys to City and surrender the Premises and improvements thereto in clean and
undamaged condition, except for wear and tear, and broom clean.

ATTACHMENT C
RESOLUTION NO. 4846
A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING EXECUTION OF LEASE
OF KAUFMAN CENTER TO EMERALD EMPIRE COUNCIL
ON AGING.
The City Council of the City of Eugene finds that:
A. Emerald Empire Council on Aging is a nonprofit entity formed in 2003 for the purpose
of continuing and expanding service programs for seniors that were formerly sponsored by Lane
Community College at the City-owned building known as the Kaufman Senior Center.
B. In August 2003, the City Council adopted Resolution 4773, which authorized the City
Manager to lease the Kaufman Center to Emerald Empire Council on Aging for an initial term of one
year for $1.00, with an option to renew the lease for a second year for $1.00, depending on outcomes
achieved. The City and the Emerald Empire Council on Aging entered into the lease. Resolution
4773 also authorized the City Manager, in his discretion, to renew the lease for up to five more years
at a rate determined to be the fair market rental value.
C. The use of the Kaufman Senior Center by Emerald Empire Council on Aging benefits
the City by providing needed accessible senior services, recreation and a seniors' community center
within the Jefferson Westside neighborhood.
D. Despite the success of its programs and progress in the operation of the Kaufman
Senior Center, Emerald Empire Council on Aging is not yet able to pay fair market rental value for
the lease.
E. The City Manager has determined that there is a limited market for rental of the
building and that determining a precise market value for a lease of the building is not feasible at this
time. The City Manager has recommended entering into a new lease with Emerald Empire Council
on Aging on terms that will require steady increases in rent.
F. The City Manager proposes to lease the Kaufman Senior Center to Emerald Empire
Council on Aging at a rental rate that is greater than under the prior lease but is still less than fair
market value. The rental rate would increase each year during the term of the lease.
G. The Kaufman Senior Center has not been declared surplus property and it not subject
to a development plan.
H. Under Section 2.872 of the Eugene Code, 1971 the City Manager has authority to
Resolution- 1
present a proposal for the disposition of real property that is not within a development plan, that has
not been declared surplus property and for which no other procedure is specified in the Code or a
Council-approved intergovernmental agreement to the City Council for its action. The City Manager
has requested that the Council authorize him to enter into a lease as described in Recital F with
Emerald Empire Council on Aging.
I. The City Council specifically finds that the use of the Kaufman Senior Center by
Emerald Empire Council on Aging as a center for support services, recreation, and as a community
center for seniors will result in a substantial benefit to the City that justifies leasing the property at less
than fair market value.
NOW, THEREFORE,
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF EUGENE, a
Municipal Corporation of the State of Oregon, as follows:
Section 1. Based on the above findings, which are hereby adopted, and pursuant to Section
2.872 of the Eugene Code, 1971, the City Manager is authorized to execute on behalf of the City a
Lease Agreement with the Emerald Economic Council on Aging for the Kaufman Senior Center. The
rent may be less than fair market value, but it should increase each year during the five-year lease
term; contribute substantially toward regular maintenance costs; and include a portion of any revenues
exceeding $1000 per month that the lessee receives from subleases. During the lease term the City
will have no obligation to make capital improvements to the property, and the City's obligation to
repair and maintain the premises shall be subject to the availability of budgeted funds derived from the
Kaufman Trust. The lease shall contain such other terms and conditions as are agreed to by the City
Manager and are consistent with this Resolution.
Section 2. The City Recorder is requested to forward a copy of this Resolution to the
Emerald Empire Council on Aging.
The foregoing Resolution adopted the __ day of August, 2005.
