Land Market Survey Summary

This is a Land Market Survey (LMS) form used by the federal government to evaluate potential real estate sites for lease opportunities. The survey is being conducted by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), specifically the Local Agricultural Apt Board (LAAB), with the Lease Contracting Officer Shannon Schoening managing the procurement. The survey location is Berrien Springs, Berrien County, Michigan, with a delineated area bounded by East Hinchman Road, MI-139, MI-31, St. Joseph's River, and Garr Road.

The government seeks office space with an ABOA range of 3,836-4,028 square feet (NTE 4,412 RSF) for a 15-year full lease term with a 10-year firm commitment. Parking requirements include five (5) reserved government spaces and fifteen (15) employee surface parking spaces, plus fifteen (15) producer/visitor spaces. The space must be first-floor, contiguous office space in a professional environment with modern design, turnkey tenant improvements, and a fully serviced lease. Critical requirements exclude locations within 300 feet of residential areas, floodplains, buildings with living quarters, or adjacent to alcohol sales, firearms, or drug treatment facilities. The space must provide 24/7 government access, meet fire safety and accessibility standards, and maintain pull-through parking capabilities. The form includes sections for offeror information, site description, zoning details, environmental assessment findings, historical considerations, transportation impacts, and final Lease Contracting Officer decision regarding solicitation eligibility based on Simplified Floor Office/Real Property Leasing (SFO/RLP) Standards, with required concurrence from FSA and NRCS representatives.
