Public Works Agency https://www.santa-ana.org/pw Item # 22 City of Santa Ana 20 Civic Center Plaza, Santa Ana, CA 92701 Staff Report May 16, 2023 TOPIC: License Agreement with Greyhound Lines, Inc. AGENDA TITLE Approve License Agreement with Greyhound Lines, Inc. RECOMMENDED ACTION Authorize the City Manager to execute a site license agreement with Greyhound Lines, Inc. for the rental of one bus bay for a one-year period beginning June 1, 2023 and expiring May 31, 2024, with four, one-year optional renewals, at a monthly rate of $4,500, for a total amount of $54,000, subject to non -substantive changes approved by the City Manager and City Attorney. DISCUSSION The Santa Ana Regional Transportation Center (SARTC) is a regional transportation hub that connects Amtrak, Metrolink, Orange County Transportation Authority (OCTA), interstate bus services, and the future OC Streetcar. The facility is open to the public seven days a week from 5:00 a.m. to midnight and contains approximately 35,000 square feet of rental space, including ten bus bays. On August 16, 2016, the City Council approved a site license agreement with Greyhound Lines, Inc. to license two bus bays. The site lease agreement was for a three-year term with two one-year renewal options. Because of the decrease in ridership, Greyhound Lines, Inc. approached the City with interest in reducing the license agreement to one bus bay. Greyhound Lines, Inc. has been a tenant at SARTC for over 20 years and has paid the monthly rent consistently. Staff recommends entering into a site license agreement for a one-year period to allow Greyhound Lines, Inc. to continue providing bus passenger services to the community (Exhibit 1). FISCAL IMPACT Lease Income in the amount of $54,000 will be deposited into the SARTC Operations Rental — Greyhound Lines, Inc. revenue account (No. 06717002-53810) for future appropriations.
