PURPOSE: To consider renewing a lease at the Moody Building, 103 Laurel Avenue,Carrboro, NC.
BACKGROUND: In June, 1992, the County Commissioners approved a lease renewal for one year
at the Laurel Avenue property. Tenants of this facility include several human services agencies who
will be targeted to move upon completion of the Southern Human Services Building. Since the
timeline for completion of the Southern Human Services Building was not clear at this time last year,
the landlord allowed us to renew based on the following terms:
1. If we renew through June 30,1995, the rent increase will be 4.5% annually for each year
of the lease remaining.
2. If we renew through June 30, 1997, the rent increase will be 3% annually for each year of
the lease remaining.
Upon completion of the Southern Human Services Building, approximately one-half of the Moody
Building occupants will be relocated. The Public Defender's office and the Guardian Ad Litem
program are not targeted to move. However, it is unclear how much of the rented space would be
needed to fulfill the space requirements of the two functions. For that reason the recommendation
is being made to renew through June 30, 1995, and negotiate any future renewals based on a
program which will be developed between now and then.
The suggestion has been made by Commissioner Gordon that we explore the possibility of relocating
some or all of the Moody Building functions to the old Chapel Hill Library Building. Reports from the
Town indicate that they are exploring a number of possibilities for the facility's reuse. Whatever the
potential use decision,the Town's proposed funding scenario include program development during
fiscal 1993-94, with implementation funding to be included in the budget for fiscal 1994-95.
We will continue to explore the feasibility of relocating appropriate functions to this facility and bring
back any resulting recommendations to the Board at a later date.
RECOMMENDATION: The Manager recommends approval of a lease renewal for the Moody Building,
103 Laurel Avenue, Carrboro, NC through June 30, 1995; and authorize the Chair to sign on behalf
of the Board.
