Policy:
Background In June 2016, the Board of Education approved a three-year lease for the Transition Program at the 100 Bridge Street location. The students in this program have a curriculum focused on community living skills, daily living skills and functional academics. In 2019 and 2020, the Board approved a second and third amendment (respectively) to the original lease for additional space to accommodate increasing enrollment, as well as space requirements for students in wheelchairs. This amendment adds Suite #600 to the amendment which will serve as storage (vehicles and equipment) for the Operations and Maintenance Department.

Summary: Staff and District counsel worked with the landlord of the facility on a fourth amendment to the original lease agreement to add in space under Suite #600 to be used as storage (vehicles and equipment) for the Operations and Maintenance Department. The Operations and Maintenance team will also be moving their offices into a small portion of the current leased areas that was used by the Transition team for social distancing during the 2020-2021 school year. Attached to this report is the fourth amendment to the lease. The lease will expire on June 30, 2022, unless the District were to extend the end of the overall lease no later than 120 days prior to June 30, 2022.
