Title
A Resolution of the Salt Lake County Council Approving a New Lease Agreement between Salt Lake County and Friends of Tracy Aviary
Body
Requested Agenda Item Description: Salt Lake County owns several adjacent parcels of real property in South Salt Lake City, Utah, including James Madison Park. Salt Lake County entered into a lease agreement with Friends of Tracy Aviary, a Utah non-profit corporation, in 2019 to lease up to 20,000 square feet of the Park Property for the purpose of running a small nature center to educate and connect visitors. The Original Lease for the Nature Center was intended to be an interim use in anticipation of possibly developing a larger Nature Center in the future. The Aviary is now prepared to enter a long-term lease with the County to develop an expanded Nature Center on an area that includes portions of the Park Property and all the Expansion area. The New Lease will be for fifty years, and the Aviary will pay a nominal consideration of $1.00 per year for this New Lease. The Original Lease shall immediately terminate. It has been determined that the Aviary contributes to the safety, health, comfort and convenience of county residents. The County wishes to lease to the Aviary pursuant to the terms of the New Tracy Aviary Lease Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit.
