EXPRESSONS OF INTEREST SOUGHT

The U.S. Government currently occupies warehouse and storage space in a building under a lease in Williston, Vermont that will be expiring.  The Government requires warehouse and storage space yielding a minimum of 3,900 ANSI/BOMA office area square feet, and a maximum of 4,095 ANSI/BOMA office area square feet.  The lease term requirement is for five (5) years, with one (1) year firm.  The space must be ready for occupancy by September 2016. The delineated area is the city limits of Williston, Vermont.

Other applicable requirements include the following features:

• Parking for two (2) for official government vehicles.
• Offered space shall have or be able to provide at least one drive-in bay (two (2) is preferable).

The Government is considering alternative space, if economically advantageous. In making this determination, the Government will consider, among other things, the availability of alternative space that potentially can satisfy the Government's 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.
