TITLE
Recommendation to authorize City Manager to execute a one-year renewal of, and any subsequent amendments to, the License for Non-Federal Use of Real Property between the City of Long Beach and the United States Government, Department of the Navy, for use of certain Navy-Marine Corps Reserve Center properties as a Driver Training Center by the Long Beach Police Department at no cost.
DISCUSSION
Since 1997, the Long Beach Police Department has utilized four acres of land owned by the United States Government, Department of the Navy, for use as a Driver Training Center. The area is located east of the Navy-Marine Corps Reserve Center at 801 Reeves Avenue, Terminal Island, California.
The Navy anticipates relocation of the Navy-Marine Corps Reserve Center, but has agreed to extend the current agreement for an additional year. The agreement will be subject to termination at any time due to the Navy's anticipated relocation. This renewal will allow the Police Department to continue various driver training programs already in place while another location is sought.
This letter was reviewed by Deputy City Attorney Richard Anthony and Budget Management Officer David Wodynski on February 6,2006.
TIMING CONSIDERATIONS
City Council action is requested on February 21, 2006, in order to continue utilizing the property for training purposes until relocation of the Navy-Marine Reserve Center. The current term expired on February 14, 2006.
FISCAL IMPACT
There will be no cost to the City for use of the land. This project has qualified for a categorical exemption, CEP-575-97, under the California Environmental Quality Act.
SUGGESTED ACTION
Approve recommendation.
