ANALYSIS:
The Corona Firefighters’ Association (CFA) is a lessee of the City of Corona Historic Civic Center located at 815 W. Sixth Street, Suite 130. CFA has been a tenant in the building since 2006. A new lease agreement was approved in 2014 and extended the lease term through February 11, 2017. The lease was later amended and extended the lease term through February 28, 2019 (current term) with an option to extend through February 28, 2021. The CFA no longer needs the office space and requested an early termination of the lease.
In accordance with the Termination Agreement the: 1) lease will terminate retroactively on April 1, 2018, 2) security deposits in the amount of $426.88 may be returned after inspection of the lease premises, and 3) City shall keep the key deposit to offset costs associated with rekeying the leased premises.
Under the current term of the lease, CFA is paying $515.47 a month. Although the lease termination will result in loss of income, the City will have an opportunity to offer the lease space to another tenant.
