Since the County requested the satellite office <br /> be located in Orange County, they and the State have shared <br /> the $8.00 per square foot cost at a $5. 00 (County) / $3 .00 <br /> (State) split, which represents a cost of $8360 per year for <br /> Orange County. <br /> In 1987 the Chapel Hill Housing Authority was absorbed into <br /> the Town of Chapel Hill, thereby requiring that a new lease <br /> be negotiated with Town rather than with the Housing <br /> Authority. The Employment Security Commission subsequently <br /> leases the space from the County for Job Service offices. <br /> During the negotiations for the new lease, Job Service <br /> office management requested that the lease be modified to <br /> include an additional 337 square feet that they were using <br /> on an informal basis. It was negotiated with the State that <br /> the cost of the new lease, with the additional square <br /> footage included, be shared at a $4.00/$4.00 split. The <br /> cost to the County will be $8036 per year under this <br /> arrangement. <br /> For your information, the Town of Chapel Hill intends to <br /> utilize the space in the Housing Authority building for Town <br /> purposes next year and have therefore included a non-renewal <br /> clause in this lease. The State Property office is aware of <br /> the situation and is currently bidding space in the Chapel <br /> Hill area so the move can be made in an orderly manner. <br />
