It is not a solicitation. There is no solicitation at this time. The Department of Veterans Affairs desires to lease sufficient rentable square footage to yield no more than 11,460 of contiguous net usable square feet (NUSF) within the boundaries established below in Venango County, PA. This space is for use as a Community Based Outpatient Clinic (CBOC) by the Erie VA Medical Center, Erie, PA. All space must be located on the first floor of a building and must meet all Government requirements for fire safety and ADA accessibility. On-site parking is required for a minimum of 50 vehicles including ADA accessible spaces. The Government will consider both existing and build to suit properties. A 10-year lease term is being considered which includes a firm term of five (5) years and five (5) year soft term with termination rights after the firm term. Space is required within the Venango County, PA; specifically space will only be acceptable if it is within or fronting the boundaries outlined below and includes all properties that border either side of the roadways or paths that make up the boundaries. See attached delineated area map. Allegheny Blvd US-62 (16323 16301) (start point Franklin towards Oil City) (North) Petroleum Street (16301) West 1st Street (16301) US-62 (16301) (East) Horsecreek Road (16301 16319) (South) Lakes to the Sea Highway US-322 (16319 16323) (West) 8th Street (16323) Liberty Street (16323) The location was chosen because it supports the needs of Veterans and will reduce beneficiary travel expenditures by reducing the need to travel long distances to access care. It also supports increased patient and family satisfaction with close proximity to highly populated residential and commercial areas. This will in turn improve quality and continuity of care with more convenient access, more timely attention to medical problems, and reduction in wait time. A market survey of properties offered for lease will be conducted by VA. Interested offerors (Owners, broker or their legal representatives) should contact Herbert Byrns by email (herbert.byrns@va,gov), telephone (412-822-3740), or mail no later than 3:00 PM December 23, 2019 (EST), at the following address: Herb Byrns Department of Veterans Affairs VA Pittsburgh Healthcare System Acquisitions Office; Bldg 32 1010 Delafield Road Pittsburgh, PA 15215 Interested parties should provide a description of the property(ies) that they are submitting for the market survey to include address, available rentable and usable square feet, and contact information. The Government is limited by law (40 USC 278a. as Amended 10-01-1981) to pay no more than the appraised fair rental value for space. And VA does not pay broker fees. Please note: This annoucement is not a solicitation for offer, nor is it a request for proposals. A Request for Proposals (RFP) may be issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs at a later date.
