Wake Opportunities (Head Start); located at Northern Human Services Center, Cedar Grove; <br />2.) JOCCA- nutrition site; located at Northern Human Services Center, Cedar Grove; <br />3.) JOCCA-- Nutrition site at the Northside Community Center Buidling, Chapel Hill. <br />4.) Cedar Grove Day Care, located at the Northern Human Services Center, Cedar Grove. <br />BACKGROUND: These agencies operate day care services and Senior nutrition sites at the Northern <br />Human Services Center and the Northside Community Center, Chapel Hill. They are on -going programs <br />with leases originating in 1983. Terms and conditions of each lease remain the same, with the following <br />exceptions: <br />• The present lease requires each agency to pay their pro -rata share for utilities in the building. <br />Funding to these organizations makes ability to pay very difficult. As a result, for several years there <br />has been no compliance with this lease condition. The attached renewal agreements modify the <br />language to reflect their requirement to pay pro -rata share of utilities, only if they receive or can <br />receive funds to reimburse the expense. <br />• The term of each lease is extended to June 30, 2001. <br />Highlights of the remaining lease terms are summarized as follows: <br />• Rent is provided as in -kind support. A spreadsheet citing amounts is attached. <br />• County provides maintenance for HVAC, plumbing and electrical systems. <br />• County provides grounds care. <br />• County maintains parking areas. <br />• County cleans and maintains all common areas in the building, however, each agency is responsible <br />for cleaning their program space. <br />• Each agency is responsible for insuring whatever personal property they have in the leased premises. <br />RECOMMENDATION: The Manager recommends approval of lease renewals for Wake Opportunities, <br />Cedar Grove Day Care and JOCCA through June 30, 2001; and and authorize the Chair to sign on <br />behalf of the Board. <br />
