on a week--to-week basis (the 1st Saturday of the month or the last one of the previous month)


Explanation:
- to kick off actual suggestions for a translation.

Aperto connotes a shop or office opening times, as opposed to a tenancy & lease start and end 'effective ' on a certain date and, in my experience, giving rise to nuch confusion, often blazing rows and negligence claims....

according to when the Saturday falls


Explanation:
One way of putting this in English is to use the expression/To fall on/


I would add it to the brackets (the first or last week of the month according to
when the Saturday falls/ the week the Saturday falls on)
