Commission discusses riverfront tenant lease, city says current lease expires this year and will not automatically renew
Summary
Commissioners discussed the lease for a riverfront tenant known as Mazook. Staff said the current lease expires this year, the city does not have a renewal in place, and the city manager will contact the tenant to determine their plans.
The Atchison City Commission discussed the status of the lease for a riverfront tenant identified in the meeting as Mazook and confirmed the existing lease expires this year. City staff said there is no current renewal in place and that the city will reach out to determine whether the tenant wishes to renew or vacate.
When asked, staff said a previous city commission had sent the tenant a letter indicating the city did not intend to renew the lease. "We do not currently have a lease going forward after this year," staff said, adding that the city could revisit the prior commission's decision at the commission's discretion. The city manager said he plans to contact the tenant in the coming weeks to clarify their plans and to determine what clearing out the area would involve if they leave.
Commissioners asked staff to confirm the lease end date and payment details; staff said the exact amount and final date would be looked up and reported back. No formal action was taken; the discussion was informational and staff will follow up with the tenant and provide the commission with lease details.
