On october 15, 1991 Council approved staff's recommendation for a
general lease plan at the CUbberley site, with two €}(ceptions. 'I"he
first exception .",'as all artist leases be no longer than one year in
duratio2"'. The second exception ""as a direction to staff to return
to council with a separate non-resident artist rental rate.
Council also authorized ~he City Manager to execute all CUbbe~ley
leases up to five years in duration. The five-yea!." authorization

Non-Resident Artist Rate
Staff reviewed the Municipal Fee Schedule and determined that the
average differential bet~een resident and non-resident rates is
approximately 10 percent. Staff consequently proposes the same
differential for non-resident artists. This rate would mean a non
resident leasing 510 feet of space .'Quld pay about $:20 more per
month than a resident.
