Lease Framework Working Group
We convened the group to review policy in our current lease framework. They also identified opportunities to make improvements.
From the group's charter:
"The Working Group will conduct a policy review of the current lease framework as well as identify and evaluate possible opportunities and alternatives to improve the leasing framework alignment with the Airport's Strategic Plan goals. The review will include, but will not be limited to, policies related to pricing and lease terms, exclusive rights, arbitration rights and procedures, investment credits and/or amortization of tenant investments, and assignment and transfer rights. These issues will be discussed over a series of meetings and identify alternatives, if applicable and feasible, in the form of potential policy or code changes."
Group members met 13 times between August 2015 and October 2016. They accomplished the following:
- Considered a range of policy questions
- Developed key findings from presentations and group discussions
- Reached consensus on recommendations to improve future hangar and long-term leasing practices
Recommendations address the following topics:
- Hangar waitlist
- Hangar commercial rental rate
- Monthly hangar pricing and appraisal process
- Hangar vacancies
- Long-term lease appraisal process
- Long-term lease appraisal re-evaluation cycles and rent adjustment
- Length of long-term leases
- Long-term lease investment requirements
- Long-term lease award
