All affected tenants have been notified by mail of the proposed increase. 2. BACKGROUND: The Airport Commission has recommended that the hangar rates be increased to allow for adequate revenue to help offset the cost of operations. 3. ALTERNATIVES: a. Reduce the amount of increase. This will have a negative reflection on the level of services provided to the airport tenants and visitors. b. Deny the increase. The airport would not be able to fully cover its operating expenses. 4. FINANCIAL IMPACTS: Denial of this request will put the airport in a potential operating deficit, which will require a reduction in services. CONCLUSION: The rate increase is justified to help meet the current budgetary demands, and should be implemented as soon as possible. 6. OUTCOME OR PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENTS THAT WILL IDENTIFY SUCCESS OR COMPLETION. The rate increase will generate additional income necessary to maintain airport operations. RECOMMENDATION: Pass the resolution for the increases as provided and recommended by the Airport Commission.
