CITY COUNCIL
City Council Special Meeting: November 5, 2008
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
ISSUE
In 1998, the City of Rosemount agreed to lease the Rosemount Family Resource Center to the Community
Action Council (CAC), allowing CAC to locate their Rosemount office in the building. The original lease
was a 10 year agreement that will be ending in November of 2008.
City staff have met with the representatives from CAC regarding the lease of the Family Resource Center.
CAC would like to renew the lease and has asked for a change in the responsibilities regarding the
maintenance of the outside of the building. In the original lease, CAC has been responsible for most of the
outside maintenance of the building. Things such as snow removal, window replacement, trash collection,
painting /staining of the building, etc. have been taken care of by CAC. Mowing and typical park
maintenance responsibilities have been the responsibilities of the City. CAC has asked that in the new
lease, the City would be responsible for all of the outside maintenance.
BACKGROUND
In the summer of 1997, the City of Rosemount received a Youth Initiative Grant from the Minnesota
Department of Children, Families and Learning in the amount of $214,900. This grant, along with other
grants and donations, allowed the construction of the Family Resource Center to become a reality.
In December of 1998, CAC and the City of Rosemount agreed to have CAC lease the facility. CAC would
then provide their services and also share space and encourage other service providers to use the facility.
The CAC lease states that the facility will be used for serving children and families in the community
through services such as crisis intervention, providing food, clothing, housing assistance, parenting
support, academic support through mentorship, child care assistance, violence prevention outreach and
recreation. The Center officially opened in February of 1999.
SUMMARY
Staff feels that CAC has done a good job providing services and managing the center. The Parks and
Recreation Commission and staff recommend signing a new lease but do not support taking on all of the
outside maintenance responsibilities. With a new lease, it is recommended that the City should take on the
outside maintenance responsibilities that would include windows /glass replacement, trash collection, and
painting /staining of the building, but not the snow removal. This information has been shared with CAC
and they are agreeable to signing the new lease as proposed in the attached agreement
