SUBJECT: Resolution Approving a Commercial Lease Agreement with. Timothy Rogers, dba
Calibro Avionics; at the Petaluma^Municipal Airport, and Authorizing the City
Manager to Execute the Agreement on Behalf of'the City of Petaluma
RE GO1VIlVIENDA'I'I ON:
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached resolution approving a commercial
lease agreement with Timothy .Rogers, .dba Calibro .Avionics, at the Petaluma Municipal Airport,
and authorizing City Manager to executethe agreement on behalfof the City of Petaluma.
BACKGROUND:
To provide services for,Petaluma Muncpal.Airport users and generate-revenue to support
airport operations, the City leases :hangars to aircraft owners and."users.. In 2007, the City
Council approved Ordinance 2268 N.C.S., which amended the. Petaluma Municipal Code to
provide for a more efficient approval process for Airport leases. Pursuant to Petaluma Municipal
Code section 16:06:200, specialized leases.must be approved by Council resolution. The Calibro
Avionics lease falls into this category because it is for specif c commercial use by Calibro's
avionics business. For this reason, it requires individual approval by resolution.
City ,Council approved a resolution for a commercial pease with Timothy Rogers, dba Calibro
Avionics, at its October 1.9, 2009 meeting. However; further review of Elie lease agreement
indicated that :item 3a:{Rent. Payments) called for correction of a rate increase date,, from
December 31', .2009, to June'3.0; 2009, in order to align it with. other executive leases. In
addition, the lease .agreement has .been revised to reflect the original .rental amount of $1,865,
rather than $1.,920; as stated.: Subsequent to commencement-of the agreement, rate increases
were imposed on all executive hangars on July 1, 2009.:For this reason, staff is returning to
Council to request approval-ofa:revised lease .agreement.
