Commissioners renew CASA lease with Jasper, agree to split HVAC repair cost
Summary
The board approved a five-year CASA lease with the city of Jasper under similar terms, agreed to pay half (about $3,675) of an HVAC repair and maintain the $250 monthly lease cost, and authorized the board president to complete the agreement.
The board approved renewing the county’s five-year lease for the CASA location with the city of Jasper under the same terms and agreed to split an HVAC repair cost.
The chair said the county had negotiated similar terms for another five-year period and the city requested the county pay half of a needed HVAC repair. The chair estimated the county’s half at roughly $3,675 and proposed continuing the $250 monthly lease payment. Commissioners agreed the location remains suitable and authorized the board president to conclude the agreement and work with the city on financing and necessary appropriation steps.
Why it matters: Maintaining CASA’s leased space ensures continuity for services provided from that location; sharing the modest HVAC repair cost preserves the relationship with the city and avoids service interruption.
What’s next: Staff will finalize agreements and either request an additional appropriation or use remaining commissioner operating funds to cover the county’s share of the repair.
