Background:
On August 8, 2006, the Board of County Commissioners (BCC) approved a lease agreement with Seminole Community College (SCC) to relocate Economic Development to 1,859 square feet of space in the newly constructed Heathrow Center. On September 22, 2009, the Board approved the First Addendum to the Lease, reducing the space to 1,485 square feet. On June 26, 2012, the Board approved the Second Addendum to the Lease which increased the total space to 1,668 square feet. This addendum changed all references to “Seminole Community College” to read “Seminole State College of Florida”. On March 1, 2019, the Tourism office, which was located at 1515 International Parkway in Lake Mary, FL, was moved into the Heathrow Center in order to reduce lease expenses. On September 22, 2020, an office containing 134 square feet was added to the existing office space which resulted in approximately 1,802 gross square feet. On October 26, 2021, the Board approved the fourth addendum which added an office containing 171 square feet for a total of approximately 1,972 gross square feet.
The proposed fifth addendum adds to the lease room 146 containing about 151 square feet of space for a total of 2,165 gross square feet. The newly added office will be utilized by an existing employee who is currently sharing an office with another employee. The new monthly payment starting July 1, 2023, is $4,640.32 or $55,683.84 annually. This results in an increase of $289.21 per month or $3,470.52 per year.
The lease can be terminated early with six (6) months’ written notice to the College.
