PREPARED BY: Logan Martin, City Administrator AGENDA NO. 6.i.
ATTACHMENTS: MHealth Fairview Lease Agreement,
MHealth Fairview Medical Director
Services Agreement
APPROVED BY: LJM
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Motion to authorize staff to enter into lease and services
agreements with the MHealth Fairview Care System for portions of property at Fire Station
1.
BACKGROUND
Fire Chief Schroeder has been working with our partners at MHealth Fairview Medical Transportation
(formerly Healtheast Ambulance) to solidify various aspects of our relationship with MHealth. The first
agreement establishes the ambulance service’s utilization of some parking space and staff areas within Fire
Station 1, located at 14700 Shannon Parkway. The second agreement establishes the services provided by
MHealth, including the services of the Medical Director. MHealth has been completing similar agreements
with other fire entities in Dakota County as well, in an effort to have consistent contracts with all partners.
Currently, MHealth houses an ambulance in Fire 1 which occupies approximately 324 SF in the apparatus
bay. Their employees also utilize approximately 693 SF in the day room area for lunch breaks and general
daily activities. The lease agreement establishes the intended utilization of the space by MHealth and also
requires that MHealth be responsible for any damage caused in the station. This typically includes damage
to garage doors upon leaving the facility, which has occasionally occurred. No rent is exchanged and the
initial lease term is 3 years.
The second agreement for services establishes the Medical Director services that MHealth will provide to
the City. MHealth agrees to provide two physician employees who will provide Medical Director services
in partnership with the Fire Department. Exhibit A to the Agreement discusses the statement of work
provided, including approval of patient care protocols, approval of continuing education for MHealth
employees, and exchange of medical equipment at scenes. The Medical Director will also provide up to 8
hours of annual medical training to City staff. No compensation is owed by either party, and the agreement
automatically renews annually unless otherwise declared.
The City Attorney has reviewed both agreements and shared feedback. Chief Schroeder is supportive of
these agreements and sees the mutual value in the relationship with MHealth.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the Council approve a motion authorizing staff to enter into lease and services
agreements with the MHealth Fairview Care system for portions of property at Fire Station 1.
LEASE AGREEMENT
THIS LEASE AGREEMENT ("Lease"), is made and entered into this December 1,
2020 by and between the City of Rosemount, a Minnesota municipal corporation (the

Transportation (the "Lessee") (collectively, the "Parties").
RECITALS

liabilities, damages, attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses provided in Section 10
