BACKGROUND AND COMMENT: Following the departure of the Durham Regional Police from the Police and Fire Building, their interest in the use of the Holding Cells was at an end. Government Services, knowing that the Regional Police would be vacating the premises as of June 30th 1986, entered into discussions with respect to the leasing of the cells space with Mr. Johnston and subsequently with the writer. The annual rental of $2,010.00 ($167.50 per month) for 335 square feet of space seems reasonable. The Ministry also proposes to combine the lease for holding cell space with the lease for the second floor court rooms when that lease is renewed in December 1987. . . .2 V/ ADMIN. 62 - 86 -2- Rental payments for the holding cells would commence from July 1st 1986. The annual rental fee is reasonable for the holding cells and staff would recommend that the by-law authorizing execution of the lease be recommended to Council for passage.
