In 2004, Martin County originally entered into a ten (10) year lease with two (2) five-year extensions, for a 7,600 sq. ft. office space, in Phase II of Island Crossings.  Due to buildout timelines for improvements, the lease didn’t officially start until 2006.

 

In 2016, a First Amendment to Lease Agreement was approved exercising the option to extend the original term for 5-years through October 31, 2021.  The second extension was exercised, through a written approval in 2021, extending the term for an additional 5 years through October 31, 2026.

 

Staff conferred with the Constitutional Officers, who requested to extend the lease an additional 5-year through October 31, 2031.  This extension will allow for continued uninterrupted service to south county residents and will provide staff enough time to review other options for rental space. All terms and conditions of the original lease will remain, with the exception of the annual rent for years 21-25 which will increase pursuant to Section 19.01 of the Lease Agreement.
