Roanoke, Virginia March 16, 1992 WILLIAMSON · THE VALLEY'S MAIN STREET. Proposal On behalf of its general membership, the board of directors of the WILLIAMSON ROAD AREA BUSINESS ASSOCIATION, Inc. (otherwise known as "WRABA") hereby respectfully petitions the members of the ROANOKE CITY COUNCIL= To authorize the establishment of a primary service district, subject to Virginia State Code 15.1-18.3, to be known as the WILLIAMSON ROAD AREA SERVICE DISTRICT for the purpose of provid- ing to the Williamson Road area "additional or more complete services of government than are desired in the city as a whole". Boundaries of said district shall be as shown on the accompanying map and shall represent the area subject to a special tax as- sessment and entitled to receive benefits thereof. To assess an additional tax of .1% (10 cents per $100) of as- sessed value over and above the current rate of $1.25 per $100 on all taxable real property within the boundaries of the newly created service district. To designate WRABA as its agent in receiving funds and carrying out certain functions, subject to an approved workplan, necessary to provide such services. Boundaries The area for consideration begins at the intersection of Orange Avenue and Williamson Road and extends north on Williamson Road to the Roanoke City limits at Malvern Avenue. The WILLIAMSON ROAD AREA BUSINESS ASSOCIATION, INC. is a non- profit business association comprised of active business leaders, retired persons and other interested individuals who work, live or have an interest in the northwest section of Roanoke Virginia. Mission The mission of the WILLIAMSON ROAD AREA BUSINESS ASSOCIATION (WRABA) is to promote and encourage improvements in organization, design, promotion and economic development in the Williamson Road area and to function as: * A forum for local business people to discuss common problems, programs and goals. * A unified voice to represent the local business communi- ty. * An assembly to hear speakers and receive information on topics of current interest. * A public information service to inform the Roanoke Valley of Williamson Road area activities. * An action group to pursue specific projects. * A focal point of contact for interested investors, de- velopers and business people. Membership Those eligible for membership are: 1 - Persons who own and/or operate area businesses. 2 - Representatives of area churches or schools. 3 - A liaison from the Williamson Road Action Forum. 4 - Those persons who manifest an interest in the association and its objectives. Present membership is approximately 150 members. Page 2 History The WILLIAMSON ROAD AREA BUSINESS ASSOCIATION (WRABA) is an outgrowth of the Williamson Road Action Forum which was organized in 1980 by area citizens who shared a common desire to see their community improved. The image of the Williamson Road area needed improvement as did such conditions as poor storm drainage and traffic problems. The citizens united to collectively make their concerns known to the City of Roanoke officials and the city listened. In 1981 the WILLIAMSON ROAD AREA BUSINESS ASSOCIATION (WRABA) was formed to work with the Action Forum to carry forward the cooperative work already begun between the citizens and the city. In 1984 these two organizations approached the city for assist- ance in planning for future improvements and growth along Wil- liamson Road - Roanoke Valley's "Main Street". Everyone realized that Williamson Road would soon reach a turning point in its development due to its position as a major connector between a revitalized downtown on the south and a new major retail shopping mall Valley View on the north. It was felt that all those in- volved should join forces to shape an improved image of the Williamson Road area. After six (6) months of workshops, meetings and planning sessions between city officials, citizens groups, business leaders and professional urban design consultants a final repot was issued in January of 1985 which made several observations and recommenda- tions. The WRABA immediately endorsed and began working on sever- al of the recommendations in the report and today can point with pride to many accomplishments and improvements which have oc- curred since then.

Suggested activities/projects: 1 - Need to improve existing relationship between WRABA and the Williamson Road Action Forum in order to provide a coordinated effort in area projects/improvements. 2 Continue efforts and, if possible, automobile emphasis to minimize negative affects of "cruising" turn these into positives, ie. market the - car shows, rallies, etc. Goal #2 To market a positive, unified image of Williamson Road as a center of activities, goods and services to residents, shoppers, tourists and potential investors. Suggested activities/projects: 1 - Classify existing businesses and determine what types succeed in the area - auto dealerships, banks, restaurants, etc. 2 - Develop calendar of special events and notices of new busi- nesses providing unique goods or services. 3 - Direct mailer/flyer program to other parts of the Roanoke Valley announcing coordinated sales events. 4 - Capitalize on the importance of the automobile as a commodity in the area's commercial activity - Car shows, driver education- al seminars for the elderly, drive-in restaurants (1950's style), etc. 5 - Encourage local residents to support area businesses tires, discounts, etc. incen- 6 - Develop a database (inventory) of goods and services avail- able in the area. 7 - Determine missing goods/services and recruit new businesses to the area. Page 5 8 - Work on cruising problem - one-way streets, outdoor concerts, car shows, curfew, etc. Goal #3 To create a more attractive living and working environment Williamson Road Area. in the Suggested activities/projects: 1 - Adopt-a-block program where a business is responsible for cleaning up trash, cutting weeds, etc. 2 - Work on problem of chain-link fences installed too near the street. 3 - Recognition program with awards for businesses who improve the appearance of their property. 4 - Work on a sign ordinance enforcement program and suggest use of design catalog for new or remodeled buildings. 5 Low-interest loan program for physical improvements only, as well as new business startups. 6 - Possible use of VPI's school of architecture or municipal planning department as a pilot project. 7 - Trash receptacles. 8 - Bus stop covers. 9 - Get city to improve public property - curbs, sidewalks, etc. 10 - Get city to enforce ordinances on abandoned cars, weeds, etc. 11 - Work on cruising problem. 12 - Try to discourage new "adult homes" and work for possible relocation of existing ones. 13 - Utility pole setback. 14 - Landscape completion at Breckenridge School. 15 - Christmas decorations. Page 6 Goal #4 To %m~rove the economic appeal of the Williamson Road area by retaining and strengthening existing businesses; by recruiting new businesses to diversify the existing business mix and fill vacant buildings thereby increasing investor confidence. Suggested activities/projects: 1 - Encourage city officals/departments to recommend the William- son Road area to new business prospects. 2 - Ask the city for some latitude (variance, tax consideration) for requiring a new "certificate of occupancy" when new business- es go into older buildings. 3 - Develop a resource list of services (painting, lawn mainte- nance, accounting, etc.) for out-of-town property owners. 4 - Low-interest loan programs. 5 - Have city building department refer new business owners to WRABA so that the design catalog might be discussed in the early stages of the business planning. 6 - Get the city's economic development department to recommend the Williamson Road area for possible location sites instead of always referring to the southwest portion of the city. Present 150 foot zoning on Williamson Road needs to be deeper. 7 - Provide technical assistance to new startup businesses. 8 Recruit new businesses which "fill the gap" of missing goods/services. 9 - Work on cruising. 10 - Adult homes. 11 - Develop services to be shared - accounting, lawn services, marketing/advertising, secretarial pool, etc. 12 - Low-interest loan programs. 13 - Develop "commercial pockets" to attract unique businesses. 14 Work on traffic flow. Revive idea of 581 ramp onto 10th street. Page 7 Since 1981 The WILLIAMSON ROAD AREA BUSINESS ASSOCIATION (WRABA) (a non-profit, voluntary membership organization) has attempted to address the focus areas shown above, but its effectiveness has been extremely limited by budgetary constraints and by its many other functions in representing the area to the community at large. As envisioned, WRABA would retain its basic structure as a non- profit, voluntary membership organization carrying out its tradi- tional functions. The additional funds generated by the service district designation added to current and projected increased membership dues, would provide the organization with funds necessary to address many of the goals listed above. Benefits to Property Owners Property owners within the district will benefit in a variety ways, ranging from the intangible to the tangible as follows: * A more attractive and vital business district. * Increased rent levels. * Higher property values. * Better prospects for improved tenant retention. * Attraction of upscale customers. * ~ility to attract qualified employees. of We welcome your comments and suggestions as we strive to make the Williamson Road Area "the best that it can be".

BE IT ORDAINED by the Council of the City of Roanoke that: 1. The City Manager be, and he is hereby authorized, for and on behalf of the City to execute a Real Estate Option on real estate located at 1819 Melrose Avenue, N.W., currently owned by Roy R. Pollard, Jr., as more particularly set out in and attached to the City Manager's report to Council dated March 16, 1992, a copy of which is on file in the Office of the City Clerk, upon approval of the form of the Option by the City Attorney, and upon such other terms and conditions as are provided therein. 2. In order to provide for the usual daily operation of the municipal government, ordinance shall be in an emergency is deemed to exist, and this full force and effect upon its passage. ATTEST: City Clerk. March 16, 1992 Honorable Mayor and Members of Council Roanoke, Virginia Dear Members of Council: Subject: I. Background: Execution of Real Estate Option at 1819 Melrose Avenue NW, under the Home Purchase Assistance Program $220~000 from the Virginia Department of Housing and Community Develop- ment's Single Family Rehabilitation and Energy Conservation Loan Program~ and $2q0~000 in Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds were allocated to the Home Purchase Assistance Program by City Council on 3une 26, 1989, allowing the City to provide loans to low-moderate income households agreeing to buy and repair approximately 18-20 certain ident- ified substandard houses. The Program is administered jointly by the City and the Roanoke Redevelopment and Housing Authority (RRHA), as outlined in the City's current contract for services with RRHA. Bo Real Estate Options were selected as the best way to allow the City to implement the Home Purchase Assistance Program. These Options define the property owner's and the City's responsibilities under the Program, establish a purchase price for the property, allow the City to access the property, and market the property for sale to qualifying low and moderate income purchasers in the Program through assignment of the Real Estate Option. This provides for a direct sale of the property from the current owner to the purchaser selected through the Program. The City will not exercise any Option and will not actually purchase any property in the Program. Should the City be unable to find a buyer for the property, the Real Estate Option would be allowed to expire. Council previously authorized the City Manager to execute Options with individual property owners of several properties to be included in the Home Purchase Assistance Program. Il. Current Situation: Real Estate Option has been executed by the owner of a vacant single family home located at 1819 Melrose Avenue, NW (Attachment A) (City assessment $15,200). Option is offered at $20,000. Housing Development staff has determined that the offered price is reasonable to allow the home to be included in the Program. Council authorization to the City Manager to execute Real Estate Option (Attachment A) with the owners of the property is necessary to allow this property to be marketed through the Program. Page 2 March 16, 1992 III. Issues: A. Cost to the City B. Effect of Housing Conditions C. Timing IV. Alternatives: A. Authorize the City Manager to execute Real Estate Option at 1819 Melrose Avenu% NW~ to be approved as to form by the City Attorney~ with the owners of this property selected for the Home Purchase Assistance Program. Cost to the City would be $1.00 per Option. Under separate sub- sequent action, Council will be asked to approve assignment of the Option to qualifying purchasers under the Program and authorize loaning CDBG funds allowing the purchase and rehabilitation of the property to occur. Effect on housing conditions will be positive as an additional home-ownership opportunity will be provided to low-moderate income households. Owner occupancy and rehabilitation of a vacant substandard house will provide significant contribution toward stabilization and rejuvenation within the neighborhood. 3. Timing is such that prompt execution of this Option will allow immediate marketing of the house. B. Do not authorize the City Manager to execute Real Estate Option at 1819 Melrose Avenu% NW~ (Attachment A)~ to be approved as to form by the City Attorney~ with the owners of this property selected for the Home Purchase Assistance Program. 1. Cost of the City can be recognized as lost opportunity cost. Effect on housing conditions will be negative, as a homeownership opportunity will not be provided to low-moderate income house- holds in the Northwest Quadrant of the City. 3. Timing would not be an issue. Page 3 March 16, 1992 V. Recommendation: Adopt Alternative A, thereby authorizing the City Manager to execute Real Estate Option at lgl9 Melrose Avenue, NW, (Attachment A), to be as to form by the City Attorney, with the owners of this property selected for the Home Purchase Assistance Program.

ATTEST: city Clerk. Roanoke, Virginia March 16, 1992 The Honorable Mayor and City Council Roanoke, Virginia Dear Members of Council: SUBJECT: ENI{ANCED 9-1-1 TELEPHONE SERVICE I. BACKGROUND ae Enhanced 9-1-1 Emeraencv Telephone System was activated by the city of Roanoke on October 5, 1987. City Contracts with Chesapeake and Potomac Telephone Company of Virainia to provide equipment necessary for selective routing of Emergency 9-1-1 calls to the appropriate Valley Emergency Communications Center and the display of citizen address information. Public acceptance is demonstrated by high usage of the Emergency 9-1-1 Telephone System. A total of 139,197 calls were processed thru the system during FY 90/91. II. CURRENT SITUATION city of Roanoke has been notified by C&P Telephone that past bills were underestimated. Under the State Corporation Commission Tariff, equipment charges are based on the total number of telephone subscriber lines located in the city. Initial billing reflected the City as having 43,000 subscriber lines whereas in actuality there were 52,000 individual telephone lines when the system was turned on, which has resulted in an underbilling for services the City has received. Documentation of Company Policy on file at the State Corporation Commission restricts retroactively billing for undercharges to three years prior to discovery of this error. The current number of subscriber telephone lines is 56,000 for which the City is required to pay the fee for services. Be Conformance to the State Corporation Commission Tariff has been reviewed by representatives of the Communications Department and city Attorney's office. Ce Request for payment by C & P Telephone Company of underbilling for the last three (3) years for $48,456.00 has been legitimately submitted. PAGE 2 T~RHONORABLEMAYORANDCITY COUNCIL MARCH 16, 1992 Fundin~ is not available in the Communications Budget for FY 91/92 to pay for past bills that were underestimated. E 9-1-1 onqoinq system line costs will increase apDroximatelv $1.500 Der month, or $18,000 per year. This total additional cost will be reflected in the FY 92/93 budget. Additional monthly costs for the remainder of FY 91/92 will be paid out of the Communications Budget. III. ISSUES A. Compliance with legal requirements B. Fundin~ IV. ALTERNATIVES ae Transfer S48.456.00 from Contingency Reserve account 001-002-9410-2199 to the Communications Department Telephone account 001-052-4130-2020. Compliance with legal requirements - The City would meet legal obligations of payment for Enhanced 9-1-1 services as provided in the State Corporation Commission Tariff for these services. 2e Fundinq - Funds are not currently available in the Communications Department Budget for FY 91/92, but are available in the Contingency Reserve Account. Be Do not transfer funds from the Contingency Reserve Account. Compliance with legal requirements - The City would not be in compliance with legal obligations of payment for Enhanced 9-1-1 Telephone Service. 2. Fundinq - Would not be an issue in this alternative.

No. 30909-031692. VIRGINIA, A RESOLUTION authorizing the City Manager to submit a street inventory for State maintenance payment eligibility to the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) upon forms prescribed by VDOT for approval by the Commonwealth Transportation Board in order to ensure the City's eligibility for an increase in State maintenance funds. WHEREAS, the Code of Virginia (1950), as amended, establishes eligibility criteria for localities in receiving funds from VDOT for street maintenance purposes; WHEREAS, inventory additions and deletions are required to be submitted to VDOT prior to April 1, 1992, in order to be eligible for payment for the next fiscal year; THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Council of the City of Roanoke that the City Manager is authorized to submit inventory additions and deletions to VDOT for approval by the Commonwealth Transportation Board in order to ensure the City's eligibility for additional State street maintenance funds as set forth in the City Manager's report and its attachments, dated March 16, 1992. ATTEST: City Clerk. Honorable Mayor and City Council Roanoke, Virginia Roanoke, Virginia March 16, 1992 Dear Members of Council: Subject: Street Inventory for State Maintenance Payment Eligibility I. Backqround on this subject includes: Code of Virqinia establishes the eligibility criteria of localities for receiving funds from the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) for street maintenance. It specifies two functional classifications of highways (Principal/Minor Arterials and Collector/ Locals) and establishes a base payment rate per lane mile for each classification of roadway. These rates are adjusted annually by VDOT based upon a statewide maintenance index of unit costs for labor, equipment and materials used by VDOT on roads and bridges. City eliqibility for fiscal year 1991-92 is approximately $6~065~561 in street maintenance payments from VDOT. These funds are used for many maintenance expenditures that the City incurs for streets, sidewalks, curb and gutter, traffic signals, bridges, signs and pavement markings. II. Current situation of this subject is: Inventory additions need to be submitted to VDOT prior to April 1, 1992, in order to be eligible for payment for the next fiscal year. These additions are to be submitted on VDOT forms with an accompanying resolution from City Council. City staff has found that the attached list of streets should be submitted to VDOT before April 1, 1992, to enable their eligibility for payment in the next fiscal year. Approval of this addition to the street inventory could add $69~747 at current year payment rates. These include new streets, corrections to VDOT's current inventory, and streets omitted from the VDOT inventory. III. Issues in order of importance are: A. Maintenance payments. B. Timinq. Mayor and Members of City Council RE: Street Inventory for State Maintenance Payment Eligibility Page 2 IV. Alternatives in order of recommendation are that City Council: Authorize the City Manager to submit the attached list of streets to the Virginia Department of Transportation for approval by the Commonwealth Transportation Board to enable State Maintenance Payment eligibility. 1. Maintenance payments from VDOT could increase by as much as $69~747 with the State's approval of this list. Timinq is important inasmuch as this list must be submitted to VDOT (Salem Resident Engineer) by April 1, 1992. Do not authorize the City Manager to submit the attached list of streets to the Virginia Department of Transpor- tation for approval by the Commonwealth Transportation Board to enable State Maintenance Payment eligibility. 1. Maintenance Dayment~ from VDOT are not increased. 2. Tlminq is not an issue. Recommendation is that City Council authorize the City Manager to submit the attached list of streets to the Virginia Department of Transportation for approval by the Commonwealth Transportation Board to enable State Maintenance Payment eligibility.

Robert Herbert City Manager WRH/JGB/mm Attachments: Bid Committee Report CC: City Attorney Director of Finance Director of Public Works Director of Utilities & Operation Citizens' Request for Service City Engineer Construction Cost Technician Roanoke, Virginia March 16, 1992 Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Roanoke, Virginia Dear Members of Council: Subject: Bid Committee Report New Concrete Sidewalk, Entrances, Curb & Gutter (Bond Issue - Phase VI Roanoke, Virginia Background on the project includes: New concrete sidewalkst entrancest curb and gutter improvements are to be constructed throughout the City as part of the 1988 Bond Referendum (see Attachment A). Two (2) projects, both in the downtown area (including Jefferson Street, Luck Avenue, Kirk Avenue, and Franklin Road) have been completed as part of the 1988 Bond Referendum. This will be the final project. Bids were received by City Council at its February 24, 1992 meeting, publicly opened, and read aloud for New Concrete Sidewalks, Entrances, Curb and Gutter. Six (6) bids were received and referred to the bid committee for review and report back to Council. Low bid, in the amount of $167~282.00 for the Base Bid and $1~165.00 for the Alternate to the Base Bid, was submitted by S. R. Draper Paving Company and is considerably lower than the engineer's estimate. Contract amount, which will allow the City to install additional curb and sidewalk is $65r175.00 more than the low bid total (including Alternate No. 1). The low bid is 31% lower than the engineer's estimate. The Engineering Department has increased the appropriate quantities, as bid on a unit price basis. Project specifications state that the City reserves the right to add to or to decrease the quantities listed in the Bid Form in an amount that would not exceed 25 percent of the total accepted Base Bid, without renegotiattons of the unit prices. The Contractor has agreed (see Attachment B) to add the additional streets at the bid unit prices. Page 2 II. III. Issues in order of importance are: ae Compliance of the bidders with the requirements of contract documents. B. Amount of the low bid. C. Fundinq for construction. D. Time of completion. Alternatives are: Award the contract to S. R. Draper Paving Company in the amount of $233t622.00 and establish a contingency in the amount of $13~567.00 in a form acceptable to the Director of Finance. Compliance with requirements of the contract documents was met. 2. Amount of the low bid is acceptable. Fundinq for the proposed contract amount is available in the Public Improvement Bond Series 1988 - Streets and Bridges, Account No. 008-052-9603-9181. Time of completion for the project is 180 calendar days plus 3--0 calendar days for Alternate to Base Bid plus and additional 60 calendar days for the additional quantities added to the contract for a total project time of 270 consecutive calendar days. Reject all bids received and do not construct project at this time. Re-evaluate the project for future rebidding. Compliance with requirements of the contract documents would not be an issue. Amount of the bid price would probably be higher if bid at a later date. 3. Fundinq would not be spent at this time. Time for completion of the project would be delayed, jeopardizing our ability to expend the bond money designated for these improvements within the necessary timeframe. Page 3 IV. Recommendation is that City Council take the following action: ADProve Alternative "A" and award a unit price contract to S. R. Draper Paving Company in the sum of $233,622.00, including Alternate No. 1, and establish a contingency in the amount of $13~567.00 for a total contract amount of $247~189.00. Transfer $247~189.00 from the 1988 Series of Public Improvement Bond - Streets and Bridges category, Account No. 008-052-9603-9181, to an account to be established by the Director of Finance entitled Curb, Gutter and Sidewalks Phase VI. This will complete the expenditure of one (1) million dollars from the 1988 Series of Public Improvement Bonds intended for sidewalks and curb. C. Reject the other bids received.

After looking over the proposed streets to be added I find them similar to those on the original quote on 2/24/92. We will agree to add these streets, Campbell Ave., S.W. from loth St. to 12th St., both sides; 8th St. one block South of Campbell East side and West side as needed. Also short sections of curb returns off Campbell Ave. We agree to these increases at the same unit prices as our quote of 2/24/92. However, we would expect the time to be increased by the same percentage as the dollar value of the contract. Also some adjustment needs to be made in the only lump sum item (seeding) to cover additional bonding and actual topsoil and seeding. Thank you for taking the time to show me these additional areas.

BE IT ORDAINED by the Council of the City of Roanoke that: 1. The City Manager and the City Clerk are hereby authorized to execute and attest, respectively, in form approved by the City Attorney, an amendment to the lease agreement with the Commonwealth of Virginia to provide for the relinquishment by the lessee of all its currently leased space on the second floor of the Commonwealth Building as more particularly set forth in the report by the City Manger to this Council dated March 9, 1992. 2.

ATTEST: City Clerk. Roanoke, March 9, Virginia 1992 Honorable Mayor and Members of City Council Roanoke, Virginia SUBJECT: COMMONWEALTH BUILDING LEASE REVISIONS Dear Members of Council: I. Backqround: General Services Administration (GSA) leases approxi- mately two-thirds of the second floor of the structure for use by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court. The term of the GSA lease states that it is to begin not later than September 1, 1985, for a ten (10) year period, to August 31, 1995. Lease also includes a 336 square foot office on the first floor. Current rate per square foot is ~9.55. Commonwealth of Virqinia, Department of General Services (DGS) leases the remainder of the structure, including the other approximately one-third of the second floor, for use by various state offices. The term of the DGS lease is from July 1, 1985 through June 30, 2005. Current rate per square foot is $8.51. Lease Terms of both state and federal leases have cancellation provisions. State (DGS) lease permits the addition or removal of leasable space by mutual agree- ment and also terminates automatically if the Legisla- ture fails to appropriate funding. Federal (GSA) lease provides for termination upon sixty (60) days written notice after the first five (5) years. Current annual revenue received from leases is $394~353.82 (FY 90-91) which is used to amortize cost of renovations to the building. II. Current Situation: State Departments on the second floor have already vacated their spaces. These include the Department of Education and the Alcoholic Beverage Control Board (ABC). We were informed of these moves by the DGS. No reason for the moves was given. Page 2 Bankruptcy Court desires more space and GSA has pro- posed a lease revision that would include the entire second floor in their lease. GSA has also agreed to contract for their own remodeling, to be done with City approval. GSA resists agreeing to Day to require its contractor to be insured and bonded to protect the City as required by law. In order to meet this requirement, the City will arrange to Day the premiums for such bonding and insurance. De Lease revisions requested by state (DGS) (attached) have been reviewed by the City and are in the final form acceptable to DGS and the City Administration. Effective date to be March 15, 1992. Lease revisions requested by GSA (attached) have been reviewed by the City and are in the final form accept able to GSA and the City Administration. Effective date to be established as 150 days following the date of execution of the lease agreement, providing time for all alterations and renovations to the space to be completed, ready for occupancy. For example, should the space be released by the DGS on March 15, 1992, and the GSA lease agreement be executed at that time, this lease would be effective about August 12, 1992. Lease rate to be the current $9.55 per square foot. Permission to proceed directly to City Council with this matter was granted by the Water Resources Commit- tee at its regular meeting on September 23, 1991. III. Issues: A. Need B. Timing C. Impact on Projected Revenue IV. Alternatives: ae City Council authorize the City Manager and City Clerk to execute and attest, respectively, revised lease agreements between the City and the State (DGS) and the Federal (GSA) governments permitting the DGS to relin- quish all of its currently leased space on the second floor of the Commonwealth Building; and, permitting GSA to add to its current lease all of the leasable space on the second floor released by DGS. Page 3 Need by DGS to relinquish portions of its currently leased space and for GSA to acquire lease rights to the space is met. 2. Timinq to minimize loss of lease fees by City by moving as quickly as possible is met. Impact on Pro~ected Revenue, based upon FY 90-91 lease fees, is a net annual loss of $948.20. This is due to the State (DGS) giving up 4,855 square feet of qross space and the federal (GSA) only agreeing to pay for 4,227 square feet of net space. In addition, during the 150 day period of alteration and renovation of 4,227 square feet of floor area (at $9.55 per square foot per annum) by GSA, there will be an additional, one-time (FY 91- 92) loss of $16~820.00. City Council not authorize the proposed exchange of leased spaces between the DGS and GSA in the Common- wealth Building. 1. Need by petitioning agencies not met. 2. Timinq to cut City's losses not met. 3. Impact on Pro~ected Revenue at least the loss of revenue from space the DGS desires to vacate. Recommendation: Council authorize the exchange of leased properties between State (DGS) and federal (GSA) in accor- dance with the attached two (2) lease amendments and Alter- native "A".
