REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATION/BACKGROUND: On April 5, 2005, the Board authorized the Public Works Director to enter into a lease with Concord Jet Service, Inc. (the "Tenant") for a term of forty years for the purpose of constructing and operating a fixed base operator hangar and office area at Buchanan Field Airport (the "Lease"). On April 1.0, 2007, the Board approved a First Amendment to Lease which accomplished two goals; it defined the:Tenant's allowable maintenance activities at the facility for hangar construction and operations consistent with fire suppression guidelines, and it extended the construction rent period through December 2007 whert the project was expected to be completed. In November 2007, the Tenant requested that the office component be removed from their project due to economic concerns within the housing industry(its primary business emphasis).This change would limit the Tenant's ability to provide the Fixed Base Operator(FBO) services that are required in and were the basis for the lower ground rent in its Lease. This Second Amendment to Lease would allow the Tenant to delay completion of the office space until April 5, 2014, and increase the applicable ground rent to a level that is comparable with other non-FBO tenants at Buchanan Field Airport. IV. CONSEQUENCES OF NEGATIVE ACTION: If the parties do not execute the Second Amendment to Lease, Concord Jet Service, Inc. will be in default under the Lease for failing to construct the improvements described in the Lease in accordance with the terms of the Lease.
