SUBJECT LEASE RENEWAL FOR FEDERAL AVIATION ADMINISTRATION REMOTE
TRANSMITTER RECEIVER SITE AT FORT WORTH MEACHAM INTERNATIONAL
AIRPORT
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute a lease renewal with the
Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for a Remote Transmitter Receiver (RTR) site at Fort Worth
Meacham International Airport.
DISCUSSION:
On February 1, 1981, the FAA entered into FAA License No. DTFA07-81-L-01029, for a parcel of land
consisting of 10,000 square feet in the central portion of Fort Worth Meacham International Airport.
This agreement will expire on September 30, 2000. The FAA desires to enter into a renewal lease
(DTFA07-01-L-00780) with the same terms and conditions. The remote transmitter is operated by the
FAA Air Traffic Control Tower and is an essential part of the communications link with aircraft.
The term of the renewal lease agreement will begin October 1, 2000, and end on September 30, 2001.
The FAA may, at its option, renew the lease from year to year, without further action from either party
until September 30, 2020.
The City and the FAA agree that no rental payments are required because of the mutual benefit
provided by the RTR to the flying public. The FAA may terminate this lease at any time, by giving at
least thirty days written notice. All terms and conditions of the lease agreement will be in accordance
with standard City and Aviation Department policies.
The property is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 2.
FISCAL INFORMATION/CERTIFICATION:
The Finance Director certifies that this action will have no material effect on City funds.
