Due to the growth in Court related offices, the building has become overcrowded and <br />can no longer accommodate all of the functions necessary. In order to facilitiate the <br />County's stautory obligation to provide adequate space for court funcitons, it was <br />recommended that the Public Defender's office be relocated to space recently vacated <br />by the Health Department at Carr Mill Mall. The Board approved this action on May 2, <br />1998 as part of the Carr Mill Mall lease renewal. <br />Contingent upon approval by the Board, the County would lease approximately 1,236 <br />square feet of space in the 103 Laurel Ave. property to house the State supported <br />Chapel Hill/Carrboro area intensive Probation and Parole teams. The attached floor <br />plan reflects those areas proposed for lease to the State. The State would pay the <br />County $17,922 per year for this space. The lease with the State would be <br />commensurate with the term of the County's lease with the Landlord of 103 Laurel <br />Avenue. <br />RECOMMENDATION: The Manager recommends that the Board approve the one year <br />lease renewal for property at 103 Laurel Avenue, Carrboro with terms and conditions as <br />cited; and authorize the Purchasing Director to finalize lease terms with the State; and <br />authorize the Chair to sign leases as appropriate to each action. <br />
