ITEM NUMBER )0 ` 1 AT A REGULAR MEETING OF THE BOARD OF SUPERVISORS OF ROANOKE COUNTY, VIRGINIA HELD AT THE ROANOKE COUNTY ADMINISTRATION CENTER MEETING DATE: March 13, 2001 AGENDA ITEM: Report and Recommendation Concerning the Purchase of the Salem Bank and Trust Building COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR'S COMMENTS: BACKGROUND: For the past few years, staff has tried to acquire property to relieve part of the space constraints within the Courthouse. The County also leases space in several buildings and as open property (for parking) particularly to house activities such as the Department of Social Services, grant funded programs under the supervision of the Court Service Unit, and space for parking by the employees and patrons of the Courthouse complex. At this time, we have a ten year lease for the Department of Social Services at the Salem Bank and Trust Building with two five year options. The base lease will expire March 31, 2007 and the second option will expire March 31, 2017. Staff has given to East Main Properties, L.L.C., owner of the Salem Bank and Trust Building, a contract to purchase said property for the amount of $2,400,000 subject to several conditions being found acceptable. These conditions include such items as the HVAC equipment, plumbing, elevators and electrical systems will be in working order; the roof and basement will be free of leaks; condition of the roof; elevators working; and that the terms and conditions of the existing leases be acceptable to the County. SUMMARY OF INFORMATION: Staff has retained the services of Hayes, Seay, Mattern and Mattern to review and evaluate the building. The consultant suggested several items to make the building more serviceable from the buyers perspective. Based on the concerns outlined above, HSMM has advised that we should consider upgrading the electrical service to the building, bring the building into compliance with ADA accessibility standards; modify the elevators; install new accessible unisex toilets; install a new fire alarm system; and provide emergency power and communications to the elevators. HSMM determined the load limit on the floor to be 100 psf and offered suggestions as to the installation of a compact filing system to serve the Department of Social Services. HSMM provided a cost estimate to add a sixth floor and feels that the other loading conditions are acceptable. Staff also contacted Environmental Directions who assisted with the mitigation program for a leakage of fluids from the elevator in the past. Environmental Directions has checked the monitoring wells and have given us a verbal indication that the results of the spill are clean. We are working with the Industrial Development Authority as a source of funding for to allow the purchase of the property. The County's Financial Advisor is working to obtain suitable financing to be managed through the Industrial Development Authority to purchase said property. There are several questions related to existing leases that must be appropriately resolved in order to finalize our offer. FISCAL IMPACT: Attachment A shows the projected cash flow from the building. Net income before debt service ranges from $276,099 to $370,466 over the next 15 years. The suggested method of financing is a lease/ purchase through the IDA, similar to the transaction that was done for the Roanoke County Administration building. The entire building will be owned by the County of Roanoke, leased to the IDA for a period not to exceed 25 years, and leased back to the County. The County currently leases three of the five floors of the building for Social Services, so the financing will be 60% non-taxable and 40% taxable. On February 27, 2001, the County mailed Requests for Proposals for financing the purchase of the building to interested banks and financial institutions. We asked for 15 and 20 -year amortization scenarios. We are currently evaluating the responses, however it appears that we will be able to pay for the debt service over a 15 year period within the available funds generated from the rent in the building. 2 AFF RECOMMENDATION: Based upon the above information, staff recommends the following: 1. Authorize the staff to proceed with finalizing the purchase of the Salem Bank & Trust building. 2. Authorize staff to work with the IDA to create a financing package for approximately $2,500,000.
