ADULT PAROLE & PROBATION AGREEMENT

 

Cheryl Searle thanked Council for being given this opportunity to present AP&P’s position.  Ms. Searle stated that Roosevelt City had initially been approached regarding the addition to AP&P by state employees that did not have the authority to request the addition.  Roosevelt City had begun construction based on the negotiations with these unauthorized individuals.  Ms. Searle stated that this work could not be done without her approval and there has been some history of misunderstanding pertaining to the construction of this addition to the AP&P building along with a lack of consensus on how much their lease payment should be adjusted.  AP&P is currently paying $8 per square foot to Roosevelt City to lease this space and in previous conversation suggested it be increased to $9 per square foot.  This is the amount that they presented to the legislature, which funds this state department.  City Manager Brad Hancock reported that his research shows it should be $12 per square foot so the City could recoup the expenses incurred with this addition.  Cheryl stated that since their funding comes through the legislative process and had been presented at $9 per square foot through 2009, the amount cannot be adjusted until another legislative session.  Council took this request under advisement and asked City Manager Brad Hancock to work with Ms. Searle regarding the lease. Council discussion concluded that the City should charge a lease amount that would compensate for the recent expansion to the building.
