RECOMMENDATION: Approve and authorize a Second Amendment to the Interlocal Agreement between the City of Houston and North Houston District for payment of full-service gross rent for lease space at 100 Glenborough Drive, Houston, Harris County, Texas, for the Houston Police Department.
SPECIFIC EXPLANATION: The General Services Department recommends approval of a Second Amendment to Interlocal Agreement with the North Houston District (NHD), previously known as the Greater Greenspoint Management District, for payment of rent for lease space at 100 Glenborough Drive for the North Belt Division of the Houston Police Department’s (HPD’s) police patrol station known as the North Belt Division. NHD desires to fund the lease space for HPD’s North Belt Division because the police presence in the community promotes the safety and general welfare of residents, employers, employees, and consumers in the District and the public.
The Second Amendment to Lease Agreement, incorporated by reference as Exhibit A, between AMG The Oaks Apartment, LLC (Landlord) and the City of Houston (Tenant) and considered as a separate City Council action provides for the lease of approximately 15,004 square feet of fully furnished office space on the entire third floor at 100 Glenborough Drive and 116 reserved parking spaces, at a monthly rental of $18,360.00 funded through the above mentioned Interlocal Agreement with NHD. The Second Amendment will provide for the Second Extended Term, which will commence on December 5, 2023, and expire on September 4, 2024, while retaining the option for a renewal term at a monthly rental of $18,360.00, which, if exercised, will expire on December 4, 2024.
The City may terminate the Lease Agreement for any reason or for no reason by providing 90 days written notice. Should the Interlocal Agreement terminate, the Lease will automatically terminate, and the monthly rental will no longer be made.
HPD will remain in the leased facility until the construction of the new North Belt Police Station on Gears Road, which is earmarked in the City’s Capital Improvement Plan in FY2024.
This is a full-service lease with no escalations or pass-through expenses.
PROPERTY LOCATION: 100 Glenborough Drive, Houston, TX 77060
