Electrical and telephone room

Delara: Delara art gallery; May 27, 2024

Hi,

I would like to ask if the electrical and telephone rooms in a floor occupied by one tenant, will consider as floor common areas or they can be included in usable area?

Thank you,

David Fingret: Extreme Measures Inc.; May 27, 2024

Hi Delara,

Floor Common Area is the appropriate allocation.

Thanks,
David
