US government is competing an existing lease

The United States Government currently occupies approximately 3,032 contiguous rentable square feet of office and related space in a building under lease in Wadena/Wadena County, MN. The lease term requirement is five years. The space must be available for occupancy immediately. The delineated area is bounded as follows:

North-Alfred Street East-Inter-County Road 23

South-County Road 100 West-Highway 75



Other applicable requirements include:



- Full-service lease (all utility, services, maintenance costs included in rent)



- Parking 36 on-site paved parking spaces in a lot under Lessors control



The Government will consider alternative space if economically advantageous. The Government will use the information it receives in response to this advertisement and market survey as basis to develop a cost-benefit analysis to determine whether to exercise its renewal option to remain at its current location. In making this determination, the Government will consider, among other things, the availability of alternate space that potentially can satisfy the Governments requirements, as well as costs likely to be incurred through relocating, such as physical move costs, replication of tenant improvements and telecommunications infrastructure, and non-productive agency downtime.
