On June 2, 2020, the Board of County Commissioners approved an Option to Lease and Public Purpose Lease Agreement with MCPAL for certain County-owned property located in Golden Gate. The Option to Lease gave MCPAL approximately two (2) years (or until April 30, 2022) to submit all required development information to the County, including architectural and design plans, a development schedule and cost estimates.
On April 25, 2022, staff received a written request from MCPAL seeking a two (2) year extension to the Option to Lease. MCPAL’s requested extension stemmed from planning and fundraising delays resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.
The proposed First Amendment to Option to Lease provides MCPAL with a two (2) year extension to all dates indicated in the Option to Lease, including, but not limited to, the submission deadline for all engineering plans, schedules, cost estimates, reports and operations plan. If approved and executed, the First Amendment to Option to Lease would allow MCPAL to submit the required development information to the County on or before April 30, 2024, and MCPAL would have until October 31, 2024 to exercise their option.
