March 4, 2021 By Mike Kruzman / [email protected] An amendment to an existing lease agreement between Livingston County Emergency Medical Services and the University of Michigan Board of Regents is nearing approval. The U-of-M Board of Regents currently leases building and hangar space at the countyâs public safety complex. EMS Director David Feldpausch wrote in a memo to the Board of Commissioners that upon review of that agreement, neither party had fulfilled their obligations to it. On the countyâs side, they had been required to report operational costs annually and make rent adjustments, but to the best of their knowledge, that had not been happening. Feldpausch reports that the process for determining these costs is complex and they had trouble justifying them on yearsâ worth of invoices. After months of reviewing invoices and meeting with representatives a recommendation was made to amend the lease agreement to eliminate confusion and simplify the process.
