Background:
On October 23, 2002, the Culture and Recreation Division received notice from Jean
Timms advising of her intention to terminate her licence agreement of the pottery studio
"The Clay Pot" at the Pickering Recreation Complex on December 31,2002. The Clay
Pot Pottery Studio has been in operation at the Pickering Recreation Complex since
May 1, 1999. On June 25, 2001, the City entered into a renewal licence agreement
with Jean Timms for a further term of three years. Jean Timms will be vacating the
premises on December 31, 2002.
The Division Head, Culture & Recreation has been approached by two individuals,
Guida Pirita and Ana-Paula Leandro, interested in entering into an appropriate
agreement with the City for the purpose of continuing the pottery studio operation.
Guida Pirita and Ana-Paula Leandro are members of the Durham Potter's Guild and
combined have 19 years of experience in pottery.
The Director, Operations & Emergency Services and the Division Head, Culture &
Recreation recommend that a new agreement be initiated with Guida Pirita and Ana-
Paula Leandro to ensure the pottery studio operation can continue without interruption.
City Council's authorization of a new licence agreement at this time will allow for a
smooth transition between the Clay Pot and the new company.
We would recommend that the agreement be granted for a term of three years at a
rental rate of $700 per month.
Enactment of the draft by-law attached will authorize the execution of a License
Agreement for a three year term to be prepared in a form acceptable to the City
Solicitor in consultation with the appropriate City Departments and existing City
practices.
