Docusign Envelope ID: 840E26CA-4F08-4987-BAE3-822880F29903
Fire Department; Sergey Grechukin, Corporation Counsel, briefly speaks, in 2019 the City and Clay 137
Township executed an Interlocal Agreement and Lease outlining the terms for the construction, 138
financing, operation and maintenance of the FD Headquarters building to be located at 210 Veterans 139
Way. In 2023, after the FD HQ building was complete, the City and the Township executed an 140
Amended and Restated Sublease and Management Agreement to reflect the operation of an event space 141
on the third and fourth floors of the FD HQ building (“Event Space”). Since then, the Fire Department 142
expressed interest in operating and managing the entire FD HQ building for both operational needs 143
and safety reasons. Township does not have an objection to that transition. 144
145
Therefore, this Resolution and the Second Amended Sublease and Management Agreement, which will 146
be effective as of September 15, 2025, will transfer the use of the entire FD HQ building to the Fire 147
Department and discontinue the use of Event Space as a reception venue. There are no additional 148
terms except for this change. 149
