The City property, which abuts Santa Ana High School, <br />sits on top of the Walnut Street Reservoir that is owned and operated by the City of Santa Ana. <br />The original agreement granted the School District authority to construct 11 tennis courts at the <br />site, free of charge, for the recreational use and enjoyment of the high school and the City paid for <br />the cost to install lighting on four courts. The School District granted the City free use of the tennis <br />court facilities after-school and on weekends. <br />As a continuation of the existing lease agreement, the City and the School District are proposing <br />an additional 10-year term with two 10-year options for renewal. No money exchange is required <br />as the consideration provided is the enjoyment and usage of the property for Santa Ana residents. <br />25C-1
