Information

Request/Subject

Approval to proceed with the acquisition of the NAPA Building at 110 W. Main Street in Payson, AZ.

Background Information

In 2007, Gila County began the process of developing a Long Range Facility Management Plan to accommodate County managerial needs and growth. It was determined in 2007, that the acquisition of future properties would be needed as the County Government expanded to meet the needs of the constituency.

Evaluation

The Long Range Facility Management Plan, conducted in 2007, has recently been updated to review the condition of current existing County facilities in the Globe and Payson areas. While there has not been a drastic rise in population in Gila County in recent years, the business of providing programs and assistance that will benefit and aid the residents of Gila County is an ongoing endeavor. It takes staff and resources to apply for grants, manage resources and implement programs that will assist Gila County citizens. In particular, the facilities in the Payson area are sorely in need of expansion. Parking continues to be an ongoing problem for residents needing to access Gila County buildings. The purchase of the NAPA Building at 110 W. Main Street in Payson, AZ, will aid in alleviating some of the space restraints Gila County is currently experiencing in Payson.

Conclusion

By purchasing the NAPA Building at 110 W. Main Street in Payson, AZ, it will enable Gila County to expand the Gila County Payson complex to acquire the land for future expansion of facilities as referenced in the Amended Long Range Facilities Management Plan. The plan was presented at the February 25, 2014, Board of Supervisors' Work Session.

Recommendation

To implement some of the modifications suggested by the Long Range Facilities Management Plan, and to help alleviate some of the space constraints currently being experienced by the County in the Payson area, the Public Works Division Director requests that the Board approve the purchase of the NAPA Building property at 110 W. Main Street in Payson, AZ in an amount not to exceed $450,500; and authorize the Chairman to sign the title documents and deed.

Suggested Motion

Information/Discussion/Action to approve the purchase of the NAPA Building at 110 W. Main Street in Payson, Arizona, in an amount not to exceed $450,500 as part of the Long Range Facility Management Plan to expand the Payson County Complex, and authorize the Chairman's signature on the title documents and deed.
