DATE: December 19, 2007 CONSENT AGENDA
SUBJECT: Signature Flight Support Lease of Old Fixed Base Operator Facility
FROM: David H. Ready, City Manager
BY: Aviation Department
SUMMARY
Signature Flight Support, Inc. is a longstanding airport tenant and is desirous of
continuing to occupy a hangar and office facility that expires under an existing
agreement. The longstanding primary agreement includes all of the Signature
leasehold, however the language for this particular piece of property and facility
indicates that they must vacate the building at the end of this calendar year. In order to
accommodate this request to remain in the building, a separate new lease is necessary
because of the short-term nature of the term and new additional rents being sought by
the airport.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve one-year facility rental agreement with two one-year options effective January
1, 2008 with Signature Flight Support, Inc. for the old Signature Fixed Base Operator
(FBO) facility.
STAFF ANALYSIS
Signature Flight Support, Inc. is one of the two Fixed Base Operators that serve the
Palm Springs International Airport aviation community. Signature has a long term lease
arrangement with the City that includes occupancy of a hangar facility and offices
located across the street from City Hall. Although Signature is nearing the completion
of a brand new FBO terminal and were expected, by the terms of the existing
agreement, to abandon this airport owned facility by end of 2007, they have expressed
a desire to continue to utilize this facility. Since the airport does not have any plans to
occupy this facility and wants to facilitate Signature's ability to service the aviation
community, it would only be beneficial to accommodate this arrangement. The new
lease would include new rental charges for the facility in addition to the land rents called
Item No. 2 . I .

for under the long-term base agreement. An Appraisal was obtained in August 2007
that was used as the basis for calculating the new rental rate. Each one-year option
includes a Consumer Price Index (CPI) adjustment
FISCAL IMPACT:
The airport would generate a total of approximately $225,000 in new facility rent over the
three years. This is in additional to the land lease as stipulated in the primary agreement.
Even more of a benefit to the airport's budget is the fact that the airport will avoid the
costly unbudgeted O & M expenses that would have been associated with taking the
facility back from Signature. This is estimated to save the airport approximately $200,000
over three years.

payable in the amount and at the time specified in the Lease and such month to month

hereunder or as otherwise provided by law, and in no way shall affect any right which City
may otherwise have to recover damages from Tenant for loss or liability incurred by City

termination of the Lease.

substitution for, or in addition to, existing real property taxes, if any. (Tenant specifically
acknowledges that the interest granted under this Lease may be subject to possessory
interest taxes.) Such amount shall be paid on the date that is twenty (20) days prior to the

or other sums due hereunder will cause City to incur costs not contemplated by this Lease,
the exact amount of which is extremely difficult to ascertain. Such costs include, but are
not limited to, processing and accounting charges. Accordingly, any payment of any sum
to be paid by Tenant not paid within five (5) days of its due date shall be subject to a five

bear interest from and after the due date until paid at a rate equal to three percent (3%)
