Summary:
The City leases property located in Loch Haven Park to the Orlando Science Center, Inc through December 2046. The Orlando Science Center has been approved to receive a $750,000 Cultural Facilities Grant, and a Restrictive Covenant between the City of Orlando ("Owner"), Orlando Science Center ("Grantee") and the State of Florida, Department of State, Division of Cultural Affairs ("Grantor") is required to ensure the facility remains a cultural facility for ten (10) years following the execution of the grant award agreement. The $750,000 Cultural Facilities grant is helping the Orlando Science Center create new “Maker Space” and update one classroom space for a new STEM Center.
If the Orlando Science Center ceases to be used as a cultural facility within the 10 year period, the Grantee will be responsible to repay the grant funds to the Grantor, pursuant to the amortization schedule noted in the Restrictive Covenant. |
