Subject: Approval of First Amendment to Parking Lease Agreement — 137 W. McKey Street &
120 W. Oakland Ave. (Community Development Administrator McFarlane)
Background Summary:
At the December 5, 2023, City Commission meeting, the City Commission approved a Parking Lease
Agreement between the City and VMG Investment Development, LLC. This Agreement authorizes the City to
utilize the properties located at 137 W. McKey St and 120 W. Oakland Ave, comprising approximately 25,000
square feet of parking spaces and drive aisles, for public parking purposes. Under the terms of the Agreement,
the City agreed to compensate VMG in the amount of $292.00 per month, with a 3% annual increase. The
term of the Agreement was for a period of 2 years, with an option to extend for an additional two-year period.
On January 21, 2026, City staff formally notified VMG Investment Development, LLC of the City’s intent to
exercise the two-year extension option provided in the Parking Lease Agreement. VMG has agreed to extend
the lease, contingent upon an increase in the monthly payment to $450.00 ($5,400.00 annually) to offset rising
property taxes, insurance, and general administration costs associated with the properties. The continued
availability of these parking facilities provides significant benefits to the City, its residents, and Downtown
business patrons.
Issue:
Should the Honorable Mayor and City Commission approve the First Amendment to the Parking Lease
Agreement drafted by City staff for the use of 137 W. McKey St. and 120 W. Oakland Ave. owned by VMG
Investment Development LLC, as a temporary public parking lot?
Recommendations:
Staff recommends that the Honorable Mayor and City Commission approve the First Amendment to the
Parking Lease Agreement drafted by City staff for the use of 137 W. McKey St and 120 W. Oakland Ave.
owned by VMG Investment Development LLC, as a temporary public parking lot.
Attachments:
1. Agreement
Financial Impacts:
An annual payment of $5,400.00 to VMG Investment LLC is equal to the cumulative amount of property taxes
assessed for the two (2) properties plus administrative fees funded in GL# 001-515-00-3128.
