REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION <br />Date:September 12, 2022 <br />Item No.:10.e <br />Department Approval City Manager Approval <br /> <br />Item Description: Consider Authorizing First Amendment to Lease by and Between the City of <br />Roseville and Roselawn Cemetery <br />1 B ACKGROUND <br />2 In 1992 the City entered into a lease agreement with the Roselawn Cemetery in which the City <br />3 leased 50 acres of land from Roselawn Cemetery for use as parkland for $1.00 per year for 50 years <br />4 (Attachment B). This land is the north and western portion of what is now Reservoir Woods Park <br />5 (Attachment C). <br />6 Recently, the Cemetery contacted the City to express concern that the original lease may not <br />7 adequately indemnify the Cemetery if an accident occurs on the leased parcel within the park. In an <br />8 effort to clarify the City’s intention in such an incidence, the attached amendment has been drafted <br />9 by the City attorneyto confirm that the City intends to indemnify Roselawn Cemetery in the event of <br />10 such an accident. <br />11 P OLICY O BJECTIVE <br />12 Roseville prioritizes the health and wellness of its residents and the continued provision on natural <br />13 spaces. Continued lease and use of Roselawn Cemetery’s land as part of Reservoir Woods Park <br />14 furthers thisgoal. Agreeing to the new amendment will allow the continued use of the land for park <br />15 and open space uses while requiring the City to fully take on the liability in allowing the public to <br />16 use and access the property <br />17 S TAFF R ECOMMENDATION <br />18 Authorize the City Manager and Mayor to execute First Amendment to Lease by and Between the <br />19 City of Roseville and Roselawn Cemetery <br />20 R EQUESTED C OUNCIL A CTION <br />21 Authorize the City Manager and Mayor to execute the attached First Amendment to Lease by and <br />22 Between the City of Roseville and Roselawn Cemetery <br />Prepared by: Matthew Johnson, Parks and Recreation Director <br /> <br />Attachments A: Resolution Authorizing First Amendment to Lease by and Between the City of Roseville and <br />Roselawn Cemetery <br /> B: Original Lease by and Between the City of Roseville and Roselawn Cemetery (December 14, <br />1992) <br /> C: Map of Parcel <br /> <br /> <br />Page 1 of 1 <br /> <br />
