The <br />two agencies would like to update the terms and extend this agreement for an additional year. <br /> <br />RECOMMENDATION <br />Approve the first amendment to the Pleasanton Unified School District and City joint use <br />agreement for the middle school gymnasiums. <br /> <br />BACKGROUND <br />The City and PUSD co-funded the construction of all three middle school gyms in Pleasanton, <br />and for many years paid equally for maintenance and capital projects. However, cost sharing <br />for capital projects was never clearly defined in the previous agreements. In 2024, both <br />agencies determined and agreed that the middle school gyms are not co-owned, but are <br />owned by PUSD. <br /> <br />On July 1, 2024, PUSD and the City entered into an Agreement for the Middle School Gyms to <br />better define how costs are shared between the two agencies for their use. Staff met and <br />agreed to an hourly rate for City use of the gyms as well as an equal share of maintenance <br />costs, with a total annual not-to-exceed amount of $75,000. <br /> <br />DISCUSSION <br />The current agreement has been mutually beneficial for the students, community members <br />and both agencies. The proposed amendment extends the term for an additional fiscal year, <br />through June 30, 2026, and provides for incremental increases to the hourly rate for use of the <br />gyms. <br /> <br />EQUITY AND SUSTAINABILITY <br />Updating City PUSD agreements to ensure they are meeting community and organizational <br />needs helps to further equitable access to recreational opportunities for all community <br />members. <br /> <br />OUTREACH <br />Outreach for the middle school gymnasium agreement was conducted through the City/PUSD <br />Liaison Committee meetings held in December 2022, May 2023, and March 2024. <br /> <br />Page 144 of 226
