To allow for visibility to the public, the government office space shall be located not more than the equivalent of two city blocks from a primary or secondary street serving the office. The lessor shall provide acceptable signage from the primary or secondary street at no separate cost. The route from the primary or secondary street shall be direct.

Sites located on a high-traffic roadway or multi-lane thoroughfare must have traffic signals within two blocks to provide safe access. When public transportation is available, passenger stops must be within two blocks of the space. In suburban areas, in small communities and in areas of major cities where adequate public transportation and onsite parking are not available, secure vehicle parking facilities must be available at reasonable commercial rates for visitors and employees within a two-block radius of the space. Secure parking is defined as parking that meets Federal Protective Service guidelines and should be resolved before any lease is signed. "Reasonable Rates" will be determined by local pricing levels. Restricted or metered parking of one hour or less within the two block area of the space does not meet space parking requirements. This is because many contacts with the public cannot be completed within one hour. Space guidelines require standard office space consistent with the local market.

The U.S. Government currently occupies office and related space in a building under a lease in St Augustine, FL, that will be expiring. The Government is considering alternative space if economically advantageous. In making this determination, the Government will consider, among other things, the availability of alternative space that potentially can satisfy the Government's requirements, as well as costs likely to be incurred through relocating, such as physical move costs, replication of tenant improvements and telecommunication infrastructure, and non-productive agency downtime.
