BACKGROUND INFORMATION
The recommended action will provide for a new 10-year revenue lease agreement for the period of August 1, 2020 through July 31, 2030,, with one five-year option to extend the term of the lease, with Threshold Technologies, Inc. (TTI) for the use of approximately 42,807 square feet of hangar space and 8,072 square feet of office space for a total of 50,879 square feet, known as Commercial Hangar No.1 (F-330), at the Chino Airport for aircraft management, maintenance, repair, overhaul, disassembly and reassembly, and painting; parts storage; aircraft charter; fixed base operations; aircraft fuel sales; aircraft hangar storage and parking; and related aviation activities.
On February 17, 2020, the Department of Airports (Airports) requested that the Real Estate Services Department (RESD) initiate a Solicitation of Proposals (SOP) process to obtain proposals from qualified aviation-related users for the lease of Commercial Hangar No.1 at the Chino Airport. The SOP was issued from March 13, 2020 through April 20, 2020. RESD received two proposals.
On May 14, 2020, based on the evaluation criteria set forth in the SOP, a review committee consisting of representatives from RESD and Airports recommended the proposal received from TTI. The Airport Commissioners were informed of the recommendation at the May 21, 2020 Airport Commission Meeting.
On June 1, 2020, Airports requested RESD negotiate a new 10-year revenue lease agreement with TTI. The new 10-year revenue lease agreement provides TTI with use of 42,807 square feet of hangar space and 8,072 square feet of office space for a total of 50,879 square feet at the Chino Airport for a period of August 1, 2020 through July 31, 2030 with one five-year option to extend. The lease provides for an initial three month rent-free construction period followed by a three month rent deferment period. The deferred amount of $60,663 will be repaid over the next four years of the term for the period August 1, 2021 through July 31, 2025 at a rate of $1,264 per month, which shall be in addition to the regular monthly rent then due. All water and sewer charges will remain payable as due from the commencement date of the lease and will not be waived or deferred.
Staff has reviewed the recommended action pursuant to the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) and has determined that it does not constitute a project. Accordingly, no further action is required under CEQA.
