HF~IORANDL~I COffCE~NINB AIRPORT lAND SALES
TO; City }$anager and City Council
FROM: Charles A. Brown, Finance Director
The Council met on April 10, 1979 and again on April 24, 1979, and
discussed the report submitted to Council from the Mayor's Committee
on Airport Lands.
Primarily, the items discussed were the recommendations made by the
committee, as they appear in Part VI of that report.
Preliminary conclusions drawn at these meetings are as follows;
1)
The Council should ask for release of all FAA lands
previously deeded to the City. Lands desi§nated as
aeronautical lands by the Airport }~ster Plan should
ha released for lease only. Lands designated as non-
aeronautical should be released for lease or sale.
2)
Existing lessees of non-aeronautical lands should have
the opportunity to purchase the land upon which they have
a lease at fair market value, to be determined by appraisal.
If they choose not to purchase, they may continue leasing
andtheland-will.not.be-offered for sale to a third party.
The City may offer non-aeronautical lands for sale. Two
sale situations are recognized:
(a) A party approaches the City and. desires a particular
piece of property for development and requests
either lease or sale. This party may either apply
for a lease or apply to purchase the property at
fair market value, to be determined by appraisal, and '
(b) The Council desires that, to raise revenue or some
other purpose, a particular piece of property should
be sold. It could then be held for auctio~ and sold
at the highest bid. However, Council would have the
option of rejecting all bfd~ if none approximated
fai~market value.
Proceeds of Airport Land sales would be deposited in ~ separate
bank account within the Airport Land System Fund apart from
the City's Cgntral Treasury Fund. Interest earned on this
account would be credited to the account. Monies in the
account, exclusive of interest earnings, could be used only
for Capital Improvements which are eligible for A.D.A.P.
funding. Contributions to the Airport Terminal Fund for
improvements which otherwise qualify would be allowed. Interest
earnings held in the account could be used for maintenance
and operation of the Airport Land System, or as otherwise:
authorized by the City Council, but within the Land System Fund.

}~IOIb~NDUM CONCEP~N1NG AIRPORT LAND SALES
6)
7)
The City will not finance sales in any way.
A potential lessee or buyer may be granted an option to
lease or buy for a period up to six (6) months, renewable
one time for another period of up to six (6) months. The
cost of the option shall be six (6) percent of appraised
or estimated value (as an annual cost) prorated according
to the length of the option. If a potential buyer then
purchases land upon which he is holding an option, all payments
for the option shall be credited against the sales price.
As a pilot project, the City shall proceed with the auction
and sale of certain airport lands located at the Spur Highway
and Beaver Loop Extended. It is the Council's intent to
use some of the proceeds to renovate the north end of the
Terminal Building.
