Board approves one-year lease with Shenandoah Area Agency on Aging

The Warren County Board of Supervisors voted to authorize the county administrator to execute a lease with the Shenandoah Area Agency on Aging for space in the Health and Human Services Complex. Miss Meadows presented the item and reminded the board that a work session and public hearing had taken place; she asked the board to take the vote to authorize the county administrator to sign the lease once final signatures are obtained.

The motion to approve the lease described a one-year term beginning on the date of final signatures and continuing unless terminated or extended. The board approved the motion on roll call; recorded votes show all members present voting 'Aye.'

Why it matters: The lease formalizes space for senior services and the local agency’s operations within a county-owned human-services complex. Supervisor comments noted readiness to assist the agency to move in after signatures are completed.

Implementation: Miss Meadows answered board questions about occupancy and readiness. The item was recorded as approved and staff indicated the agency could move in once final steps are completed.

Quote: "We are just requesting that you actually vote on the approval of the lease," Miss Meadows said when presenting the item.

Outcome: Motion carried on roll call; lease authorized.
