Title
GTEC Management Services Agreement between the City and Santa Fe CIED (B)
Explanation
On February 21, 2019, this item was included on the Regular City Commission consent agenda for discussion at the March 14, 2019, General Policy Committee as the "GTEC Lease Agreement (NB)."

The question deliberated upon by the General Policy Committee and the City Commission was the direction to staff on the Interlocal Agreement in light of the current status of GTEC, the pending expiration, the intent of Santa Fe College, the pending expiration of obligations to the EDA and the discussion around the Gainesville Community Redevelopment Agency relocating to the GTEC Building.
At the March meeting the Commission approved moving forward with a revised agreement that will extend the current arrangement with facility/lease management responsibilities shifting to the City/CRA.
