M2019-006 Quarterly Meeting 4/14/2019 Sara D. Archivist Archives Repository Relocation – • The Space Itself:
o If we agree to the offer, they are prepared to remove a wall between 2 storage rooms to provide 350 Sq. Ft. for our records and administrative space.
o This footprint is less than the 621 Sq. Ft. stated on the lease at our current location (which my tape measure will dispute) but the actual storage and administrative space we presently use calculates to between 220-230 Sq. Ft.
o We've also been advised that the Meeting Space at the rear of their facility will be made available to us to hold our Committee Meetings and any Future Events we might have at no additional cost. (schedule permitting)
Changes in Rent:
o We pay $721 a month at our current location.
o On Sep 24th the Intergroup Board of Trustees had Officially Proposed a $450 Monthly Rental Payment. (that's a $271 savings every month or $3252 annually)
o The cost of the remodel has a bid of $1850 which we are told will be passed on to Area 67.
o They've advised us that they will break up that charge into equal payments over the term of the lease, interest free. (20 equal payments of $92)
o With those charges added, the Monthly Rent will be $542. (that's still a savings of $179 a month or $2148 annually)
o The Area also has been given the option to make a 1-time payment of $1850 which will reduce the rent back down to $450 a month.
o If the Area chooses the installment plan there will be re-negotiations of our lease when it lapses which will remove the renovation charges.
Lease:
o The lease will be for 1yr 9mo (starting 01 Jan 2020) as that will be when Intergroup's current 20-year lease will lapse (Sep 2021) and it's only prudent to establish our lease into the same timeframe.
o The Board will require SETA Archives to carry its own insurance on the repository but the savings on rent easily covers that cost and insurance has already been budgeted for 2020.
 
Security:
o Security locks for the Repository will be re-keyed so that only authorized personnel will have access. (Intergroup will keep a key onsite as our landlord).
o After hours access (to retrieve displays or prepare for a presentation) will be given via an access code for the security system.  Committee Officers will be trained on its operation and we're also advised that these codes are individually assigned so a record of who's coming and going is maintained for security reasons.
In Closing:
o The Intergroup Board of Trustees will write an Official Proposal in time to present at the Oct Assembly with all that has been stated.
