FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact on the General Fund. BACKGROUND: On October 1, 2010, the County and Caffino entered into a lease for the property located at 2301 Meridian Park Boulevard in Concord, California (the “Lease”). Caffino has conducted the sale of coffee, other beverages and food items from the site. Due to adverse economic impacts, Caffino had experienced significant financial loss and has fallen two (2) months behind in payment of ground rent and other associated fees. Airport staff had worked with Caffino to devise a repayment plan to bring them current without jeopardizing their ability to remain in business. To that end, Airport staff negotiated new lease terms and the new lease was approved by the Board of Supervisors in September 2010. Since the lease was implemented Caffino has seldom paid its rent on time and is currently two (2) months behind in the payment of ground rent. As such, it is necessary to initiate the lease termination process.
