Prairie View EDC to open talks with city on leased modular office near city hall
Summary
After reviewing quotes for modular office units, the EDC voted to enter discussions with the city about a shared leased office (modular units) near city hall, including possible split of rent and site inspection; estimated pre-split rents ranged from roughly $2,400–$3,000 monthly depending on size and options.
The Prairie View Economic Development Corporation reviewed two modular leased-office options and voted to enter discussions with the city to clarify price, location, size and physical inspection arrangements. Staff presented two modular configurations (a smaller 24x64 unit and a larger 36x56 option) and line-item monthly cost estimates; board members discussed utility, janitorial and furniture options as well as the potential to consolidate storage and office costs.
Directors said a shared space near city hall would improve operations by providing a place for staff, meetings and file storage. The board discussed logistics including whether the modular would be furnished, whether furniture would be rented or bought, and savings from eliminating off-site storage. After discussion, the board moved and carried a motion to enter discussions with the city about pricing, location, scope and to arrange a physical inspection of proposed modular units. Directors emphasized any final lease or procurement that exceeds council thresholds will be referred to city council.
