Hoi,
Having an office close to the main office, having an environment that is
shared with colleagues who way are sharing their impressive usability
improvements are tangible benefits.
I agree, the issue is with how much you value them. They definitely
have a value, but I haven't, as yet, seem any attempt to quantify
that.
The cost of the office space conforms to
market rates.
Sure, but they don't conform to the cheapest rate. Any decision by a
charity to spend more money than is strictly necessary needs to be
justified. I'm not saying that it's unjustifiable, it just hasn't been
justified yet.
