Opinion

KAUS, P. J.

Plaintiffs taxpayers appeal from an adverse judgment in an action for a refund of part of property taxes paid for the 1967-1968 fiscal year on real property located in the City of Whittier.

The property in question is improved with a department store leased to the May Company for 30 years starting in August 1965. The lease agreement gives the May Company an option to renew the lease for 60 additional one-year terms. In other words, should it choose to exercise its options, the lessee has the right to exclusive possession of the realty until the year 2055.
