The Fredericksburg City Council approved a fourth amendment Sept. 9 to the lease for the Fredericksburg Art Guild to occupy the city‑owned building at 308 East Austin. The amendment extends the guild’s occupancy for a three‑year term at $600 per month, with all other lease terms to remain in effect.

The nut graf: the action renews an existing arrangement; staff confirmed the lease terms and amount and the council approved the renewal by motion and voice vote.

The amendment was described as a routine renewal of an established lease; the Art Guild was not present at the meeting. Council members congratulated the guild and encouraged continued programming.

The lease amendment carries forward existing responsibilities in the lease and will be executed according to standard city procedures.
