RECOMMENDATION(S):

APPROVE and AUTHORIZE the Director of Airports to terminate the Hangar Rental Agreement with Thomas Elmendorf. AUTHORIZE County Counsel to pursue legal action.

FISCAL IMPACT:

There is no negative impact on the General Fund. The Airport Enterprise Fund will cover the cost of any legal action.

BACKGROUND:

On May 1, 2019, the County entered into a Hangar Rental Agreement (Agreement) with Thomas Elmendorf (Tenant) for use of Hangar #C-28, which is located at the Byron Airport. Because of his failure to pay rent in full, Tenant is currently in default under the Agreement.

BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)

A Termination letter was mailed to Tenant on December 16, 2021. The letter informed Tenant that to avoid termination of the Agreement, payment in full of past due rent, then totaling $260, be delivered to the County by December 27, 2021. Tenant has been delinquent six times in the last 12 months.

Airport staff is requesting authority to terminate the Agreement and to pursue legal action against Tenant through County Counsel. Such actions are consistent with adopted Airport policies.

CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:

Failure to terminate the Agreement and pursue legal action against Tenant would result in the Airport being unable to enforce adopted Airport policies and procedures.
