05L- CRANGE COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS Action Agenda ACTION AGENDA ITEM ABSTRACT Item Nb. i-E5 Meeting Date: JUNE 18, 1985 SUBJECT: LEASE OF 100 W. ROSEMARY STREET BUILDING DEPARMENT: caner mmaGaz PUBLIC HEARING: Yes X Nb ATTACHMENT(S) : INFORMATION CONTACT: MANAGER'S OFFICE, X501 TELEPHONE NUMBER: YES Hillsborough - 732-8181 Chapel Hill - 968-4501 Mebane - 227-2031 Durahm 688-7331 - - PURPOSE: Tb consider renewal for a two-year period and based on revised terms. NEED: Currently the County leases 6,885 square feet in the building at $4.00 a foot for an annual budgeted cost of $27,540. Part of this amount is offset by revenue from subleases to Central Piedmont Job Training Council for a classroom (850 feet) and to the Association for Retarded Citizens for office space (433 feet). The Town is willing to extend the period for an additional two years providing the rate and amount of footage can be raised. Instead of the 6,885 foot area now on three floors it is pro- posed that 9,235 feet on all four floors be leased with rates assigned as follows: Sou. Ft. Rate Cost Basement (minus northeast corner) 2,359 $4.00 Ground Floor 2,900 $6.00 Mezzanine 1,085 $6.00 Second Floor - 12;900 $6.00 Total 9,244 $50,746 The County has need for the additional space. Construction activity to start in January for Rosemary square will likely require the district court to be moved from the Old Post Office. In order to keep the court function in Chapel Hill it appears best to reactivate space at 100 West Rosemary for this purpose. Holding cells are already available in the basement whereas the former council chamber could be renovated for a courtroom and space now occupied for other offices could house Clerk of Court personnel.
