WHEREAS the County of Oakland (“the County”) currently leases a building at 500 West Big Beaver Road, Troy, Michigan, to operate the 52-4 District Courthouse (Troy); and WHEREAS the lessor is the City of Troy; and WHEREAS the original lease requires the County to pay an annual fixed fee for capital maintenance
($32,400) and adjustable fees for building maintenance ($29,685), custodial services ($46,131), site work maintenance ($44,388), and insurance ($5,000) for a total of $157,604 per year; and WHEREAS per the original lease, the adjustable fees may be increased up to six percent per year; and WHEREAS the City of Troy has not increased any fees since the lease was originally signed in 1996; and WHEREAS the City of Troy re-bid custodial services citywide this year and competitively selected D.
