RECOMMENDATION
1, APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Director of General Services, or designee, to execute a
Termination Agreement on behalf of the County, terminating the lease with V.F.W. Post U.S.S.
Argonaut Ship No. 1928 for the Crockett Veterans Memorial Building.

Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
3. DIRECT the Director of the Department of Conservation and Development, or designee, to file a
Notice of Exemption with. the County Clerk, and DIRECT the Director of General Services, or
designee, to arrange for the payment of the handling fees to the Department of Conservation
and Development and County Clerk for filing of the Notice of Exemption.
FISCAL IMPACT
Termination of the lease will return exclusive control of the building to the County. The County will be
responsible for all utility and building maintenance expenses associated with the building, which
should be minimal due to the building being vacant.
BACKGROUND
The members of V.F.W. Post U.S.S. Argonaut Ship No. 1928 have decided to abandon the Crockett
Veterans Memorial Building and disband their V.F.W. post, and have requested that the County
terminate its Lease with the Post for the building. The Post cites dwindling membership and the
advanced age of its membership as the main reasons why they have abandoned the building. As
outlined in Section 1266 of the Military and Veterans code, the V.F.W. Post has abandoned its use of
the Crockett Veterans Memorial Building. By executing the Termination Agreement, the V.F.W. Post
is consenting to the termination of its lease and the revocation of the dedication of the building as a
veterans memorial building.
