Information

Request/Subject

Request for approval of a Property Lease Agreement with Central Arizona College for the Casa Grande One-Stop Center.

Background Information

On June 16, 2009, the Gila County Board of Supervisors approved entering into a Property Lease Agreement with Central Arizona College for office space at the Casa Grande One-Stop Center. The agreement will expire on April 30, 2014. The term of the agreement was from May 1, 2009, to April 30, 2014. The Property Lease Agreement was approved for a monthly rental rate of $9,728.25. The rental rate was formulated off of an annual base rent of 5559 square feet at $21.00 per square foot, which totals $116,739.00 per year.

Evaluation

Title I of the Workforce Investment Act (WIA) of 1998, establishes a One-Stop Delivery System for workforce investment activities. The One-Stop delivery system is a system where entities responsible for administering separate workforce investment, educational and other human resource programs and funding streams (referred to as One-Stop partners) collaborate to create a seamless system of service delivery designed to enhance access to the programs’ services and improve long-term employment outcomes for individuals receiving assistance.

Under the Workforce Investment Act, there is a One-Stop Delivery System in Arizona called the Arizona Workforce Connection. One of the requirements for the local area is to have a Comprehensive One-Stop Center where all of the WIA services are provided in one location, instead of at several different locations. Gila and Pinal Counties, whose programs are combined, have two Comprehensive One-Stop Centers. One is located at 1015 E. Florence Boulevard in Casa Grande and the other is located at the Gila County Central Heights Complex at 5515 S. Apache Avenue.

Conclusion

It is in the best interest of the County to continue the property lease agreement with Central Arizona College for the One-Stop Center.

Recommendation

It is the recommendation of the Community Services Division Director to approve the renewal of the Property Lease Agreement with Central Arizona College for the One-Stop Center.

Suggested Motion

Information/Discussion/Action to approve a Property Lease Agreement with Central Arizona College for office space at the Casa Grande One-Stop Center from May 1, 2014, through June 30, 2015, for a monthly rental rate of $9,728.25. (Malissa Buzan)
