BOOK 70 F�1GF 458 <br />Chairman Scurlock inquired if this would allow the Probation <br />Office to move and Mr. Baird to move his office into their <br />present location without any modifications of any substantial <br />nature to that area, and that would be a permanent relocation for <br />Mr. Baird. <br />Mr. Mattes confirmed that it would, at Mr. Baird's option. <br />He further confirmed that this would allow the Administrator to <br />move downstairs into the present Budget office and himself to <br />move in from 'North Siberia.' <br />The Chairman wished it further confirmed that this move <br />would also allow the Administrator and Assistant Administrator, <br />when the new facility is ready, to move out and move in Insurance <br />and other things that need to be next to Personnel, and it also <br />eventually would allow Probation to be close to the Courthouse. <br />Mr. Mattes stated that in their opinion, it would satisfy <br />their immediate short term needs and go a long way toward their <br />long range plans also. <br />Mr. Mattes informed the Board that the lease for the Grant <br />Building space works out to the attractive figure of $5.45 per <br />square foot, plus telephone plus electricity, or about $700 a <br />month. They have not even entered negotiations with the landlord <br />as yet, but would like to be able to. <br />Chairman Scurlock believed we charge about $8.50 per sq. ft. <br />for our office space here in this building. <br />Administrator Balczun suggested the Board authorize the <br />Chairman to enter into whatever agreement is necessary to secure <br />this property so we can proceed hastily. <br />ON MOTION by Commissioner Wheeler, SECONDED by Commis- <br />sioner Bird, the Board unanimously (4-0) authorized <br />the Chairman, if acceptable terms can be negotiated, <br />to enter into a lease agreement for space in the old <br />Grant Building for the Probation Office. <br />78 <br />
