Approval of Option to Extend Lease Agreement with Town & Country Investments, L.P., for Operation of the Library at 3240 Hamner Avenue, Norco

On June 7, 2016 (M.O. 3.14), the County of Riverside (County) entered into a Lease Agreement with Town & Country Investments LP (Lessor), for 10,430 square feet of office space located at 3240 Hamner Avenue, Suite 101B, Norco, CA 92860 (Lease), and for use by the Riverside County Library System (RCLS). The Lease has since been amended by a First Amendment, effective January 31, 2017 (M.O. 3.8), reducing the square footage and adding tenant improvement scope. The facility continues to meet the operational needs of RCLS and supports the surrounding community, and as such, RCLS will be exercising the first of its two options to extend the Lease. The First Option to Extend the Lease Agreement with Town & Country Investments LP is defined as the proposed project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The project is the extension of an existing lease; no expansion of existing facilities or change in land use will occur. No additional direct or indirect physical environmental impacts are anticipated.
