The kwazulu-natal department of public works invites bids for the lease of suitable office accommodation for the department of agriculture and rural development's newcastle local office. The premises must provide 440 m² total space (352 m² assignable plus 88 m² non-assignable), together with 22 parking bays including lock-up, undercover, open, disabled and wash bay facilities. The initial lease term is five years, with an option to extend for a further four years and eleven months at the same rental rate — NO rent escalations are permitted during the extended period. The single most consequential consideration for bidders is the no-escalation clause during the nearly five-year extension, which locks in the original rental rate for almost the entire ten-year occupancy period.
