27. Tank House - Rotary agreement ITYOF CUPEIUINO City Hall 10300 Torre Avenue Cupertino, CA 95014-3255 Telephone: (408) 777-3220 Fax: (408) 777-3366 DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES SUMMARY Agenda Item No: 1/ Meeting Date: February 6,2007 SUBJECT AND ISSUE Authorize the City Manager to sign an agreement with the Rotary Club of Cupertino (Rotary) to lease the Nathan Hall Tank House for five years and assist in its restoration and maintenance. BACKGROUND The Nathan Hall Tank House was built in the late 1800's and is included as a historical structure in our General Plan. In 1980, as a condition of approval for the eight unit Byrne A venue development, the developer Terry Brown was required to relocate the tank house/viewing stand from Oakdell Ranch area to its current location next to the Blue Pheasant Restaurant. Since that time, the Tank House has fallen into disrepair. On January 16, 2007 Council finalized an agreement with the Byrne Avenue Homeowners Association with regard to: ~ Dedication ofland under and around the Nathan Hall tank house to the city, ~ Readjustment of lot lines to accommodate encroachment of the Blue Pheasant Restaurant onto the Associations property, and ~ Readjustment of lot lines for an existing bike/pedestrian pathway to the north of the property into the city's right of way. This transfer of the property resolved a long-standing misalignment of property lines and aberration in the city right of way. The city is currently in the process of surveying the new property lines to finalize the transfer of the property at the County. During this time there has been significant interest generated in the renovation of the structure. V olunteers have corne forward to provide for a new roof, water service hookup and other needed work for securing and making the structure watertight. In addition, staff received notification from the Rotary that the Tank House has been chosen as the primary beneficiary for their 2007 Cupertino Rotary Golf Classic (approximately $25,000). 27-; Printed on Recycled Pape, Before you tonight is a request from Rotary to lease the Tank House for a period of five years for storage, meetings and Historical purposes in exchange for: ~ An additional pledge of $1 0,000 and lOO hours of labor on interior improvements; ~ Maintenance of all walkways on the Premises; ~ Maintenance of the Tank House and the exterior Premises in a safe and sanitary condition, including landscaping; ~ Responsibility of all utilities; ~ Maintenance of comprehensive public liability insurance for personal injury and property damage; ~ Installation of an identification sign (Nathan Hall Tank House, circa 1970) which allows attachment of small signs recognizing the sponsorship of Rotary and other businesses and community groups that participate in the restoration; and ~ Installation of a Rotary recognition plaque on the building (approximately 400 square inches). Staff believes that this proposed agreement will provide the mechanism to partner with the Rotary and other community organizations toward the goal of restoring this historical structure. The city would be participating in several areas to make the structure water and weatherproof and a list is attached for your review (attachment A). The cost to the city for lot line and transfer is estimated at $13,400 with an additional cost of $27,960 to assist the contractor with scaffolding and decking. This budget amount would put the structure within the City's possession and would render it in a structurally sound condition. Staff is proposing to fund the $41,360 out of our dangerous building fund, which has not been utilized this year.

I am happy to donate all labor and material needed to install a new Class "B" Fire Rated Wood Shingle roof on the Tank House, including removal of the old roof. It is my understanding, in conversations with my father, Terry Brown, the City will provide access, scaffolding, and needed reinforcement and/or replacement of any rotten wood members, in order to provide a safe and efficient work environment. Los Gatos Roofing will take care of the rest. I am also happy to provide insurance documents, if needed, showing my Worker's Compensation Insurance and Liability Insurance coverage. I am both excited and relieved to see this project move forward, and to hear of the City's willingness to take ownership of the Tank House and attempt to restore it. My family's roots are imbedded in Oakdell Ranch, and these efforts mean a lot to my Father and me. Feel free to contact me if needed at any time. Thanks again! Regards, r;7 ~ />?
