T h e center currently leases 8,730 square feet in the building. T h e Prevention Research Center was founded in 1987 to conduct, stimulate, and support multidisciplinary research on health promotion and the primary prevention of major causes of morbidity. In addition to its past grant funding, which totaled $1,075,000 in 1989, the center recently has received, among others, a fouryear etiology grant from the National Institute of Drug Abuse (NIDA) totaling over $2,000,000. Also, the Centers for Disease Control has named the UIC Center as a midwest site with funding in the amount of $850,000 over a three-year period. T h e additional leased space would provide offices for researchers and administrators at the center for an initial period from January 11, 1991 (or, upon occupancy, if later) to November 30, 1991, and is renewable annually through November 30, 1996. T h e University has the option to cancel the lease at the end of each renewal period. T h e first-year lease costs for the additional space of $46,466.28 (at a unit cost of $15.62 per square foot) includes janitorial service, common area operating expense, and real estate tax contribution. Heat and electricity are the responsibilities of the lessee. In subsequent years, the unit cost increases to a maximum of $16.45 per square foot, plus a prorated share of any increase in common area operating expenses and real estate tax contributions.
