The Special Work Session departed City Hall at 3:00 p.m. to tour prospective sites for
the proposed City Employee Health Facility.
The tour visited a 2,400 square-foot medical facility at 509 Jeffords Street in move-in
condition. The lease rate is $16/square-foot. The facility has 83 parking spaces. It’s proximity
to Morton Plant hospital is a potential advantage.
The tour visited a 1,875 square-foot space at Campus Walk Plaza at 2551 Drew Street.
The remodel estimate, not including HVAC, is $113,278. The lease rate is $10/square-foot,
triple net, meaning it does not include taxes, maintenance and insurance. It’s proximity to
various city offices and U. S. 19 is this site’s advantage.
The tour also visited the City’s former Construction Services Building at 401 N. Myrtle
Avenue. The 6,720 square-foot space requires a two-phase renovation at $250,000 per phase.
Windows could be installed. As the City owns this property there would be no lease payment.
The tour returned to City Hall at 4:15 p.m.
