Yuba City JOTFOC - Signed 10112024 - Redacted.pdf

This document is a Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition (JOTFOC) for a succeeding lease by the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) at 425 Plumas Blvd., Yuba City, CA 95991. The VHA requires 9,910 ABOA / 11,300 rentable square feet of medical space for a 20-year term beginning February 1, 2025. Market research conducted on August 20, 2024, using CoStar identified the incumbent location as the most suitable, with rental rates within the current market range. The lease is being negotiated without full and open competition under GSAR 570.402, as the VHA Lease Contracting Officer determined no potential alternative acceptable locations exist through market survey efforts.

The estimated lease cost is redacted, but includes a tenant improvement amount. The facility must be within specific delineated boundaries in Yuba City, including Highway CA-20 (north), Franklin Ave. (south), Shasta St./Wilber Ave. (east), and Highway CA-99 (west). The justification includes market research comparables from five locations in Sacramento and Roseville, California, and certifications from the Lease Contracting Officer and Lease Contract Specialist affirming the accuracy of the information and the government's best interest in this procurement approach.
