Summary:
This Second Amendment extends the sublease addendum term from July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023 for storage space of 1,872 square feet and three (3) shelves on a pallet rack needed to accommodate marketing material storage.
Background/Explanation:
In September 2017, CVB relocated their warehouse storage from the Epicenter to the existing subleased location at FIU in order to facilitate a reduction in employee travel time to the warehouse and provide 24-hour access to stored items. After the relocation, the Sports and Events Department created a new Activations Team to attend and support sponsored sports events. The team is required to market the destination and does so with marketing and promotional materials.
The original sublease addendum commenced July 1, 2017 for a period of 60 months. National Forensic Science Technology Center, Inc. was acquired by FIU effective January 9, 2018. The warehouse is located at 8285 Bryan Dairy Road, Suite 125, Largo.
The First Amendment expanded the rentable square feet (RSF) within the Premises from 828 to 1,872 square feet and added an additional pallet rack of storage consisting of three (3) shelves. The additional storage space and pallet rack are needed to accommodate additional marketing material storage.
This Second Amendment will extend the term from July 1, 2022 to June 30, 2023.
Fiscal Impact:
The annual rent will increase from $36,216.00 to $42,431.04 and is funded by the CVB operating budget.
Delegated Authority:
Authority for the County Administrator to sign this amendment is granted under Code Section 2-62(a)(2).
