US GOVERNMENT SEEKS SOURCES FOR LEASED RETAIL AND RELATED SPACE

The U.S. Government currently occupies office and related space in a
shopping center/building under lease in Austin, Texas, which will
be expiring. The Government is considering alternative space if
economically advantageous and is seeking to lease between minimum
3,000 SF and maximum 3,100 SF gross square feet of existing Class A or B
retail space, in Harker Heights, Texas, in or around the 78759 zip code area.
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 telecommunication infrastructure and non-productive
agency downtime.
The ideal space would fit the following: building specifications in
compliance with all federal, state and local ordinances; force protection
standards in compliance with Department of Defense’s Unified Facility
Criteria; outfitted with either designated or open parking. An initial fully
serviced five-year lease is intended. Offered space shall not be in the 100-
year flood plain and must be ready for occupancy by 15 November 2025.
Expressions of interest should include the following:
- Building name and address
- Floor plan drawing
- Digital photo of street view of property
- Area (BOMA rentable square feet & BOMA usable square feet)
- Rental rate per square foot rentable space (base + NNN)
- Common area factor(s) for available space, if applicable
