Re: Resolution 05-25 Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Amendment of a
Parking Lot Lease Agreement with Dublin Community Church and to execute a
sublease for parking places with Grabill & Company
Background
Since 2011, the City of Dublin (the “City”) and Dublin Community Church (the “Church”) have
entered into parking lease agreements for excess parking in the Church’s parking lot (Resolutions
51-11, 83-14, 72-17, 49-20 and 77-23). In addition to providing more parking options for the
Historic District, the intention of the lease agreement has been to provide additional flexibility for
economic development purposes in the district. The term of the current parking lot lease
agreement is from November 1, 2023, through November 1, 2026. This Resolution authorizes the
City Manager to execute a lease extension with the Church through November 1, 2029.
The reason for extending this lease with the Church is to accommodate the growth of a growing
Dublin tech company. The company has identified an office space at 61 West Bridge St. that fits
their needs and executed a lease through February 2029.
The City plans to sublease the twenty-nine (29) spaces to the building owner, Grabill & Company,
for the same term as the office tenant lease, March 1, 2025 - February 28, 2029. The lease rate is
consistent with the existing agreement with Dublin Community Church at $750 per month.
Staff recommends executing the First Amendment Parking Lot Lease Agreement with Dublin
Community Church for the twenty-nine (29) parking spaces for an additional three years ending
November 1, 2029, and executing a sublease parking lot agreement with the owner of 61 West
Bridge St., Grabill & Company.
Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of Resolution 05-25 at the January 27, 2025 City Council Meeting.

Re: Resolution 77-23 Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Renewal of a
Parking Lease Agreement with Dublin Community Church
Background
The City of Dublin (the “City”) routinely reviews the parking needs within Historic Dublin by
evaluating parking operations, space utilization, and turnover. The City has historically looked for
ways to provide more parking options in the Historic District. One method is to leverage private
parking lots via lease agreements. The Dublin Community Church (the ”Church”) has excess parking
in its parking lot that it is willing to lease to the City for parking. The City and the Church have four
times previously entered into parking lease agreements since 2011 for the excess parking in the
Church’s parking lot (ie. Resolutions 51-11, 83-14, 72-17, and 49-20).
The previous parking lease agreements between the City and the Church have been for three-year
terms and provided that the City would lease 30 parking spaces for public use and economic
development purposes. The parking spaces have been available for use 7:30 am – 11:30 pm on
weekdays only, excluding holidays. The leased parking spaces have been located at the southern
end of the Church lot and were primarily chosen to not interfere with the Dublin Food Pantry’s
operation and preschool drop-off/pick-up.
The current three-year agreement will expire at the end of October 2023. The rental rate is $750
per month ($9,000 annually) plus reimbursement for snow removal services in the parking lot up
to a maximum of $7,500 per year. The City has spent less than $3,000 each of the three previous
years on snow removal services for the parking lot as outlined in the table below:
Year Inclement Weather Costs
2023 $1,500 year-to-date
2022 $2,815
2021 $2,526
Summary
In preparation for the expiration of the current parking lease agreement, staff conducted a parking
assessment of the currently leased spaces over a two-week period to evaluate the usage of the
parking spaces at four different times throughout the day. After reviewing the data, the parking
spaces, although minimal, were being used. Staff found that one day during the two-week period
there was an event going on in the district, which caused all the spaces to be full.

Memo re. Resolution 77-23 Parking Lease Agreement Renewal with Dublin Community Church
October 17, 2023
Page 2 of 4
The Dublin Food Pantry relocated out of the Church to its own facility earlier this month. With the
goal of increasing utilization of the leased parking spaces, staff requested, and the Church is
agreeable, to shift the leased parking spaces closer to Franklin Street for improved visibility and
convenience to businesses and add signage to provide better wayfinding to drivers seeking
parking. Reference Exhibit A for the proposed leased parking spaces.
Staff also requested to remove the previous Monday through Saturday, 7:30 AM to 11:30 PM and
holiday restrictions on the spaces with the proposed agreement. The Church has agreed to remove
these restrictions and allow the spaces to be available Monday through Saturday and on holidays.
From an Economic Development perspective, the continued leasing of these parking spaces
provides additional flexibility for future office needs in the district. Parking can be a tool leveraged
to support business attraction and retention efforts. Additionally, there is the potential an office in
the district may become vacant in the near future. If a new tenant were in need of additional
parking, the City would be positioned to sublease these spaces for economic development
purposes as we have in the past.
On August 29, 2023, staff held an open house for Envision Dublin to gather input on six Special
Area Plans. Preliminary public feedback continues to request available parking in the Historic
District.
It is staff’s recommendation to continue to lease 29 parking spaces in the Church lot. Other terms
of the current agreement are proposed to remain consistent including the three-year term, rental
rate of $750 per month ($9,000 annually) plus reimbursement for snow removal services in the
parking lot up to a maximum of $7,500 per year.
Exhibit B is a current inventory of Historic Dublin’s parking designated by private or public
ownership and is provided for Council’s reference.
Recommendation
Staff recommends approval of Resolution 77-23 authorizing the City Manager to Execute a
Renewal of a Parking Lease Agreement with Dublin Community Church at the October 23rd City
Council Meeting.
