III. REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND:
The Sally Ride West Development is approximately 0.86 acre parcel of land owned by the County and
located on the westerly side of Sally Ride Drive and north of the County Airport offices as shown on the
attached parcel page. The parcel is proximate to the Buchanan Field runways and adjacent to other
aviation uses. The parcel is designated for aviation use on the Buchanan Field Master Plan. The parcel is
under the jurisdiction of the Buchanan Field Airport and entirely within the unincorporated County.
In June 2004, the Contra Costa County Public Works—Airports Division received two letters of interest
from private parties to develop the 0.86 acre project on the subject site. The proposed development
concepts included aviation uses such as hangar space, a maintenance facility and office space.
In accordance with prior discussions with the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) Airports District
Office (ADO) regarding development at Buchanan Field, the County notified existing commercial
tenants at Buchanan Field and Byron Airport to solicit other competitive interest in the property. The
County also published a solicitation advertisement in the Contra Costa Times and San Francisco
Chronicle, business section in the Sunday editions on July 18, 2004, to broaden the solicitation of
competitive interest.
The development solicitation letter and publication process provided a response deadline of August 6,
2004, for all competitive interests in the approximate 0.86 acre parcel to be submitted to the County
Airport Office. The County received no additional letters of interest in developing this property.
Airport staff contacted the two initial interested parties to reaffirm their interest in developing the subject
property. One party responded that they were no longer interested in developing the approximate 0.86
acre parcel at this time. The remaining party has reaffirmed development interest and has indicated a
desire to move forward with the development process.
Negotiation of lease terms would expand economic development activity at the Buchanan Field Airport,
provide additional revenues to the Airport Enterprise Fund, and allow Contra Costa County to expand
aviation related business available at the airport. A business proposal must be consistent with the Airport
Master Plan and General Plan for consideration.
IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Delay in approving the project will result in a delay of developing vacant land at Buchanan Field Airport
and may negatively impact the Airport Enterprise Fund and County General Fund.
