BACKGROUND: In November,1986 the Commissioners approved a lease at Plantation Plaza (since renamed Carrboro Plaza) for the purpose of relocating the satellite office of the Driver License Bureau. The office had previously been located in the basement of Carrboro Town Hall, however, the Town's expanding office needs made it necessary to relocate the Driver License office. During the recent renewal negotiation process the State indicated a need for additional space, but could not identify funding to support such a move. The lease has been intentionally extended for only one year during which time the State will attempt to obtain funding (approximately$18,000)for the additional space needed. If the State chooses to provide funding for the additional space,a new lease will be executed with the County paying for the portion of the space to which we originally committed (1,200 s.f.) and the State paying for the additional space (estimated to be approximately 1,800 s.f.). Highlights of the 1994 lease renewal include: Leased Premises: 1,200 square feet Term: one year Rent: $8.00 8-f- Taxes, Insurance, Maintenance: $4.95/s.f. Total County funds required to support this lease: $15,540** "Note: This is a reduction in lease cost;the County currently pays$17,313/year. Utilities: The State will continue to pay for utilities. Maintenance: The County will continue to provide the same level of maintenance as in past lease years. Cleaning: The State will continue to pay for cleaning services. Until the completion of the Southern Human Services Building,the Sheriff will continue to maintain a satellite office at this facility. 4 2 RECOMMENDATION: The Manager recommends that the Board approve the lease renewal, contingent upon Attorney and Staff review,for a period of one year for space to be used as a satellite Driver License Bureau at Carrboro Plaza; and authorize the Chair to sign on behalf of the Board. 1.11 d194renew LEASE AGREEMENT LANDLORD: CARRBORO BELMAN S.C.LIMTED PARTNERSHIP,by Bafty Hokfi V% Inc.,General Partner TENANT: ORANGE COUNTY PURCHASING INDEX Addg Descdpbon P I BASIC LEASE SCHEDULE 2 II DEFINITIONS 4 III TERM, CONSTRUCTION AND DELIVERY OF POSSESSION 4 N RENT AND OTHER CHARGES 5 V RECORDS AND REPORTS 6 Vi USE AND OPERATION 6 VII COMMON AREAS 7 VIII MAINTENANCE AND REPAIR 8 IX OPERATING EXPENSE CHARGE 9 X INSURANCE 10 XI LANDLORD'S RELEASE FROM DAMAGE 11 XIl SIGNS AND ADVERTISING 11 XIII CASUALTY AND CONDEMNATION 11 XIV DEFAULT AND REMEDIES 12 XV ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING 14 XVI TRANSFER OF LANDLORD'S INTEREST 14 XVII SUBORDINATION 14 XVIII ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS 15 EXHIBIT A PLOT PLAN&LEGAL DESCRIPTION EXHIBIT B SIGN REQUIREMENTS EXHIBIT C CONSTRUCTION, LANDLORD'S AND TENAWS WORK EXHIBIT D RULES AND REGULATIONS 4 Li STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA COUNTY OF ORANGE LEASE AGREENEMT THIS LEASE AGREENENT, made and entered into this 241h day of January, 1994, by and between CARRBORO BELMAN S.C.
