the County, the lease termination process with Apex Aviation, Inc. for 1448 and 1450 Sally
Ride Drive, Buchanan Field Airport.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact on the General Fund.
BACKGROUND:
The County and Apex Aviation, Inc. (“Apex”) are parties to a lease dated March 15, 2005
under which Apex has leased the property located at 1448 and 1450 Sally Ride Drive in
Concord, California (the “Lease”). Apex has provided turbine aircraft maintenance, storage
detailing, line service, turbine aircraft management, charter of aircraft, and turbine aircraft
acquisition and sales at these premises. The services provided by Apex put them into a
category of Auxiliary Aviation. Due to adverse economic impacts, Apex has experienced
significant financial loss and has fallen four (4) months behind in payment of ground rent
and other associated fees. Airport staff has been working with Apex to devise a repayment
plan to bring them current without jeopardizing their ability to remain in business. Most
