Section IV, Item A2, which deals with a lease at the Desert Willow property, the
City Council voted unanimously to defer rent payments.

This is only for the Desert Willow restaurant, and due to the economic impacts of

repayment of these two years and also subsequent years, will be reconsidered
and reevaluated in fiscal years 2021 and 2022.
