Since 2006, the Rocklin Chamber of Commerce (Chamber) has leased a portion of the City-owned building at 3700 Rocklin Road.

  • The Chamber will continue to support City activities and programs as identified in Exhibit B to the lease.
  • The Chamber will designate the City as a Chairman's Circle Platinum level member, with associated member benefits.

 

The Lease is included as Exhibit A to the Resolution. Staff recommends the City Council approve and authorize the City Manager to execute the lease.
