LOG NAME: 55FTW RICH AVIATION LSA #2
REFERENCE NO.: **C-24749
SUBJECT:
Authorize Execution of a Landlord Subordination Agreement with Rich Aviation Services, LLC, and William
Mann Jr. Community Development Corporation for Two Flight Simulators at Meacham International Airport
(COUNCIL DISTRICT 2)
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute a landlord subordination
agreement with Rich Aviation Services, LLC, and William Mann Jr. Community Development Corporation
for the flight simulators at Meacham International Airport.
DISCUSSION:
On June 15, 2010, (M&C C-24268) the City Council authorized the execution of 1) a terminal building
office lease agreement for Suites 100, 102, 102A, and 105 with Rich Aviation Services, LLC, at Fort Worth
Meacham International Airport. This space consisted of 2,285 square feet of first floor office space; and 2)
a landlord subordination agreement with Rich Aviation Services, LLC, and Bank of Texas. The Bank of
Texas requested the City of Fort Worth execute a landlord subordination agreement to ensure its ability to
retrieve the collateral should the loan go into default. The collateral utilized for this loan included a
Precision Flight Controls Modular Flight Deck Simulator, a Digital King Air 200 Flight Simulator, and a
Cessna Citation V Flight Simulator.
On November 16, 2010, (M&C C-24599) the City Council authorized the execution of a terminal building
lease agreement for Suites 101 and 101A with Rich Aviation Services, LLC, for an additional 248 square
feet of first floor office space.
The Aviation Department has received at request from Mr. Shawn Rich, Owner of Rich Aviation Services,
LLC, to execute a second landlord subordination agreement. Rich Aviation Services, LLC, is expanding its
ability to provide corporate jet pilot simulator training and wishes to utilize personal property, including
simulators, as collateral for a loan from the William Mann Jr. Community Development Corporation. The
William Mann Jr. Community Development Corporation has requested the City of Fort Worth execute a
landlord subordination agreement to ensure its ability to retrieve the collateral should the loan go into
default. The collateral utilized for this loan includes a Digital King Air 200 Flight Simulator and a Cessna
Citation V Flight Simulator. Staff is in favor of subordinating its lien position, as the equipment will be vital
to the continued success of Rich Aviation Services, LLC.
The property is located in COUNCIL DISTRICT 2.
