Alterations and Repairs Lessee shall not make or permit to be made any other alterations, additions, improvements, or changes (collectively, “Alterations”), in the premises, without Lessor’s prior written approval, which approval Lessor may withhold in Lessor’s sole discretion. Subject to the services to be rendered by Lessor as set forth in the Schedule, Lessee shall, at Lessee’s expense, keep the premises generally consistent with the standard maintained by other tenants of premises in the Building during the tenancy. If Lessee does not make repairs promptly and adequately, Lessor may, but need not, make repairs, and Lessee shall pay promptly the reasonable cost thereof. At any time or times, Lessor, either voluntarily or pursuant to governmental requirement, may, at Lessor’s expense, make repairs, alterations, or improvements in or to the Building or any part thereof, including the premises, and, during such operations Lessor may close entrances, doors, corridors, elevators, or other facilities, all without any liability to Lessee or deduction of rent by reason of interference, inconvenience, or annoyance; provided that Lessee shall have access to the premises sufficient for conduct of Lessee’s business. Lessor shall not be liable to Lessee for any expense, injury, loss, or damage resulting from work done in or upon, or the use of, any adjacent or nearby building, land, street, or alley, provided that Lessor makes a reasonable effort to minimize the disruption to Lessee’s business. In the event Lessee requests that repairs, alterations, decorating, or other work in the premises be made during periods other than ordinary business hours, Lessee shall pay Lessor for overtime and other additional expenses incurred because of such request.
Maintenance and Repairs (1) Except for matters specified under Paragraph 4 above and Paragraph 8A(3) below as being Landlord's obligation, Tenant shall, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, maintain the Premises in good order, condition and repair, ordinary wear and tear and damage by fire and casualty excepted, including: the interior surfaces of the ceilings, walls and floors; all doors and interior windows; furnishings installed within the Premises; all equipment installed by or at the expense of Tenant; and all plumbing, heating, ventilating, electrical and lighting facilities and fixtures; all landscaping, parking lots, fences and signs located within the Premises. (2) In the event that Tenant fails to maintain the Premises in good order, condition and repair as required under this Lease, Landlord shall give Tenant prior written notice to do such acts as are required to so maintain the Premises. In the event that Tenant fails to commence such work within 30 days after written demand by Landlord, and diligently prosecute it to completion, then Landlord shall have the right, but shall not be obligated, to do such acts and expend such funds at the expense of Tenant as are reasonably required to perform such work. Landlord shall have no liability to Tenant for any reasonable damage, inconvenience or interference with Tenant's use of the Premises as a result of performing any such work. (3) Landlord will maintain, repair and replace all structural components of the Premises and the roof of the Building, and if a repair, replacement or alteration or other change would be considered a capital improvement or replacement to the Premises under generally accepted accounting principles, then it shall be Landlord's responsibility to promptly make and pay for such repair, replacement, alteration or other change. The cost of any such capital improvement shall be amortized over the useful life of such item and Tenant agrees to pay its percentage share (which shall be determined by dividing the square footage of the Building by the square footage of all buildings benefitted by such improvement, including the Building) of the annual amortized amount. Such payment will be made by Tenant as set forth in Paragraph 4 above. Landlord shall do all acts required to comply with all applicable laws, ordinances, regulations and rules of any public authority relating to the Premises, except to the extent that the foregoing are solely a result of Tenant's use of the Premises. Tenant shall do all acts required to comply with all applicable laws, ordinances, regulations and rules of any public authority relating solely to Tenant's use of the Premises. If a repair is required as a result of Tenant's negligence and such repair cost is not covered by insurance proceeds, Tenant will pay for the cost of such repair. Notwithstanding anything in this Lease to the contrary, in the event that the need for repairs or the making of repairs (or both) which Landlord is obligated to effect at Landlord's expense renders a material portion of the Premises unusable for more than three consecutive business days, then Tenant shall be entitled to an abatement of rent commencing with the fourth business day that the same are unusable; provided, however, that Tenant shall not be entitled to a pro rata abatement of rent under the foregoing due to unusability (i) caused directly or indirectly by any act or omission of Tenant or any of Tenant's servants, employees, agents, contractors, visitors or licensees, (ii) where Tenant makes a decoration, alteration, improvement or addition which directly causes such unusability, or (iii) where the repair in question is one which Tenant is obligated to furnish under the provisions of this Lease.
CONSTRUCTION AND RENOVATION Construction and renovation projects for a state, local, territorial, or Tribal government’s principal Emergency Operations Center (EOC) as defined by the State Administrative Agency are allowable under the EMPG Program. Written approval must be provided by FEMA prior to the use of any EMPG Program funds for construction or renovation. Requests for EMPG Program funds for construction of an EOC must be accompanied by an EOC Investment Justification (located in the Related Documents tab of the EMPG ▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇ posting) to their Regional EMPG Manager for review. Additionally, recipients are required to submit a SF-424C Form and Budget detail citing the project costs. When applying for funds to construct communication towers Sub-Recipients must submit evidence that the Federal Communication Commission’s (FCC) Section 106 review process has been completed and submit all documentation resulting from that review to Grants Program Directorate (GPD) prior to submitting materials for EHP review. Sub-Recipients are also encouraged to have completed as many steps as possible for a successful EHP review in support of their proposal for funding (e.g., coordination with their State Historic Preservation Office to identify potential historic preservation issues and to discuss the potential for project effects, compliance with all state and EHP laws and requirements). Projects for which the Sub-Recipient believes an Environmental Assessment (EA) may be needed, as defined in as defined in DHS Instruction Manual 023-01-001-01, Revision 01, FEMA Directive 108-1 and FEMA Instruction 108-1-1, must also be identified to the FEMA EMPG Regional Program Manager within six months of the award, and completed EHP review materials must be submitted no later than 12 months before the end of the period of performance. EHP review packets should be sent to ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇@▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇. EMPG Program Sub-Recipients using funds for construction projects must comply with the ▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act (40 U.S.C. §§ 3141 et seq.). Grant Sub-Recipients must ensure that their contractors or subcontractors for construction projects pay workers no less than the prevailing wages for laborers and mechanics employed on projects of a character similar to the contract work in the civil subdivision of the state in which the work is to be performed. Additional information regarding compliance with the ▇▇▇▇▇- ▇▇▇▇▇ Act, including Department of Labor (DOL) wage determinations, is available from the following website: ▇▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇.▇▇▇.▇▇▇/whd/govcontracts/dbra.htm In general, Sub-Recipients should consult with their Grant Manager prior to making any investment that does not clearly meet the allowable expense criteria established in this Guidance.
