Cleveland Police Commission Lease Extension at Perkins Avenue

September 26, 2026

The City of Cleveland is moving to extend the lease for the Community Police Commission's office space at 3631 Perkins Avenue. Through emergency ordinance 1162-2026, the Director of Finance would be authorized to amend an existing agreement with MidCity, Ltd. to maintain the commission's executive office space for an additional year.

What's in the file

The legislation authorizes an amendment to Lease Agreement No. 2017-023 to extend the current tenancy for one year, with an option to renew for one additional year. The 1162-2026-LEGISLATIVE SUMMARY-MidCity LTD notes that the City previously expanded into Suite 3C but notified the landlord in September 2025 that the unit was no longer needed. Consequently, the amendment will remove Unit 3C from the lease.

The commission will occupy Unit 4C, which consists of 3,177 square feet. The financial terms for the space are:

Item	Amount
Annual Rent	$14,487.00
Monthly Rent	$1,207.25
Price Per Square Foot	$4.56

The lease agreement also requires additional payments for utilities and trash removal.

MidCity, Ltd.: The landlord for the Perkins Avenue office space.
