There are several <br />pieces of this issue. <br />Landscaping: We have been paying the City to provide landscape services for the Amazon Station, and your <br />preference is that we end this maintenance agreement and LTD maintain the landscaping. We agree to eliminate <br />landscape maintenance from the contract and handle that work ourselves. <br />New valuation: You have determined through an analysis that the current property value would dictate a higher lease <br />rate than is in the current contract. Although the valuation assessment was completed a couple of years ago, it was <br />not communicated to us until just recently. We can agree to the proposed increase in the lease cost, but believe that <br />it should apply from 2010 forward, not retroactively as you suggest. <br />Missed payments. We have reviewed our records and agree with you on the years that payments have not been <br />made. You have proposed that we now pay for missed payments in 2001, 2002, 2008, and 2009. We agree to pay <br />for those years at the rate in the current contract. That total is $12,885.20. One of the mail messages indicated that <br />LTD did not respond to requests for payments and indicated that that LTD staff indicated that the lease has not been <br />budgeted. We do not believe that is the case. We have always paid when invoiced and have budgeted for this lease <br />every year. I suggest we both be more diligent in the future to be sure that invoices are sent and payments made <br />every year. <br />If you agree with this proposal, I suggest that you send us an invoice for the missed lease and landscape payments for <br />2001, 2002, 2003, and 2004, which should total $12,885.20. Also please send us, separately, a contract <br />amendment with the change in the lease rate. <br />Let me know your thoughts on this proposed resolution. I would add that we are interested in discussing with you the <br />option of purchasing the station site. <br />Stef <br />- - - -- Original Message---- - <br />From: MEDLIN Johnny R [mailto: Johnny .R.Medlin @ci.eugene.or.us] <br />Sent: Wednesday, January 20, 2010 3:42 PM <br />To: VIGGIANO Stefano <br />Cc: COREY Kurt A <br />Subject: FW: LTD Contract that is past due - Amazon LTD Station <br />Hi Stefano, <br />I'm finding this a little embarrassing that staff haven't been able to resolve this issue. From the briefings I have <br />received my staff believe LTD staff haven't been responsive regarding payments as well as my shop has dropped the <br />ball on following up on invoicing and checking to ensure payments were made. This being discussed by staff in an <br />
