AGENDA ITEM WORDING: Approval to rescind the BOCC approval of agenda item C-11 on
February 19, 2020, of a Lease Agreement with the State of Florida Department of Health, Monroe
County Health Department to provide continued office space at the Department of Juvenile Justice
Building, 5503 College Road, Stock Island, Key West, FL.
ITEM BACKGROUND: Since 2009, the Florida Department of Health (DOH) has been leasing
office space at the Gato Building for the purpose of delivering public health related education,
chronic diseases prevention, preparation for emergencies affecting public health, maintenance of
vital statistics information and certifications, administrative support, delivery of clinical services,
and environmental testing and inspection programs. In 2014, the environmental testing and
inspection programs offices were relocated to the DJJ Building on Stock Island to be closer to the
building department and better serve the residents and businesses requiring permits for wastewater
connections. The Lease approved on February 19, 2020, as agenda item C-11, was for a one (1)year
term beginning May 1, 2020, through April 30, 2021. At the time of the approval of the new Lease
in February 2020, the Health Dept. was currently occupying its DJJ space under a former Lease
Agreement which term was to expire on April 30, 2020. The Florida Department of Health (DOH)
determined it would vacate the DJJ space, making it available for Monroe County Building Dept.
prior to beginning of the new Lease term. The Health Dept. thereafter vacated the DJJ unit on or
about April 1, 2020,just short of its Lease termination date, but Facilities staff was not made aware
of the change in the use of the space. This request is to rescind the BOCC approval of the Lease
approved on February 19, 2020, agenda item number C-11 since the DOH never took possession of
the premises under that new Lease term and it therefore was not necessary and should be rescinded.
The DOH environmental testing and inspection programs offices were relocated to the Gato
Building in pre-existing Florida Department of Health (DOH) leased office space and no longer
utilize the DJJ space at all.
PREVIOUS RELEVANT BOCC ACTION:
Approval of annual lease agreements since 2009 with the Health Dept. and approval of the Leases
for the DJJ building since 2014, with the most current Lease having been approved on February 19,
2020 (agenda item C-11).

balance of the term of the Lease.

remedy shall not impair its right to exercise any other right or remedy.
