Committee approves three‑year lease at 135 North Elmwood for MMHA, subject to law director final review
Summary
The finance committee approved a three‑year lease for 135 North Elmwood by Metropolitan House and Associates (MMHA), to take effect when Medina Municipal Court staff move to the 1969 Courthouse; the lease includes options for one‑year renewals and was approved subject to final law director review.
The finance committee approved a three‑year lease agreement for 135 North Elmwood with Metropolitan House and Associates (MMHA), with execution contingent on final review and approval by the city law director.
Committee members discussed timing tied to the municipal court staff relocation to the 1969 courthouse; the lease is structured to commence upon the court staff’s move or within a stated number of days thereafter, rather than on a fixed calendar date. The agreement includes potential extensions of one year that the parties said can be reviewed as they approach expiration.
Why it matters: the lease provides space management for municipal court operations during a transition; staff said minor edits to the document could be made with law director approval and then shared with council prior to the full council meeting to avoid returning the item to finance.
Outcome: A motion to approve the lease subject to the law director’s final approval passed by voice vote. Staff will finalize any minor wording or numeric edits as needed and forward the finalized document to council.
