How to bid on a retail office space lease for the US Army in Clovis, CA
What the Army is buying and why it matters
The Department of the Army is looking to lease 6,000 to 6,700 rentable square feet of retail office space in Clovis, California. This space will house a U.S. Armed Forces Career Center. The government is considering alternate space because its current lease is expiring, and it will evaluate new options based on economic advantage, including relocation costs and potential agency downtime.
This is a full-service lease opportunity that may run for up to five years, with the government retaining termination rights. The selected location must also provide designated on-site parking for up to 19 government vehicles, available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
