r

Lessor's Schedule of Rates and Charges or similarly published schedule in effect at the time.
3. RENT.

Lessee will begin paying rent described in this paragraph upon the issuance of the
final applicable Certificates of Occupancy for the Terminal Building, more fully described

becomes due until the following September 30 will be calculated by multiplying the square
footage of the leased premises by the unimproved ground rental rate then in effect at the

which Lessee shall cause to be undertaken at Lessee's sole cost and expense. In the event

for the unimproved land at the Airport. Rent shall also be adjusted in the 10 th, 15', 20th and
25th years to reflect the then current applicable unimproved ground rental rate. Rent during
the renewal term shall be calculated by multiplying the square footage of the leased
premises by the unimproved ground (and not hangar) rental rate then in effect and will be
subject to the then current Lessor policies. Lessor will take title to all improvements and
Lessee shall take possession of all improvements, i.e., the Terminal Building on the leased

COUNCIL ACTION: Approved on 5/18/2004
DATE: 5/18/2004 REFERENCE NO.: C-20086 LOG NAME: 55HAYDN CUTLER
CODE: C TYPE: NON-CONSENT PUBLIC HEARING: NO
SUBJECT: Authorize Execution of Unimproved Ground Lease with Mandatory Improvements, Public Fueling
Agreement, Fixed Based Operator Permit, and a Right of First Refusal with Haydn Cutler to
Lease Additional Unimproved Land at Fort Worth Spinks Airport
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute:
1. An Unimproved Ground Lease Agreement with mandatory improvements with Haydn Cutler, an
individual, for approximately 46,000 square feet of unimproved ground at Fort Worth Spinks Airport to
develop an executive terminal building and two-20,000 square foot executive aircraft storage hangars and
associated office space, and;
2. A Public Fueling Agreement and Fixed Base Operator (FBO) Permit upon completion of the Terminal
Facility, and
3. Right of First Refusal to lease approximately 80,000 square feet of additional unimproved land to build
additional executive aircraft storage hangars and associated office space.
DISCUSSION:
Mr. Cutler, has proposed to lease approximately 46,000 square feet of unimproved land at Fort Worth Spinks
Airport for the purpose of developing an executive terminal building and two corporate hangars. In addition,
he requests the Right of First Refusal to lease an additional 80,000 square feet of unimproved ground to
develop additional aircraft storage space and associated office space, when demand dictates.
Upon completion of the terminal building, Mr. Cutler has requested that the City of Forth Worth issue a Public
Fueling Agreement and FBO Permit for the purpose of providing FBO services at Spinks Airport. Mr. Cutler
proposes to absorb the City of Fort Worth's Aviation Fuel contract with Avfuel, and proposes that the City of
Fort Worth phase out its provision of providing FBO functions at Spinks Airport.
Mr. Cutler has requested that the City of Fort Worth take title to the improvements upon the issuance of a
Certificate of Occupancy. In exchange for the City taking title to the improvements, he has proposed to pay a
fee equivalent to 1% of the appraised value of the hangar facilities beginning in the sixth year of the lease
and remaining for the full term.
Mr. Cutler also proposes to invest $800,000 in additional airport facilities to include warehouses, T-hangars
and office space. In addition, Mr. Cutler proposes to provide the City's 10% share for future federally funded
airport upgrade projects that are mutually agreed upon, in exchange for abatement of future lease payments
or fuel flowage fees.
The lease will provide for a (30) thirty-year term with (2)two consecutive (5)five-year options to renew. The
initial term of the lease will commence upon the date of execution. Rental rates shall be in accordance with
the Schedule of Rates and Charges, subject to an increase on October 1 st of any given year to reflect the
upward percentage change, if any, in the Consumer Price Index for the period since the last

adjustment. Rent shall also beadjusted in the 1Oth, 15th. 2Oth and 25th years, to reflect the then current
applicable ground rental rate. All agreements and b3One will be in accordance with City and Aviation policies.
The actual square footage of the lease sites will be determined Upon completion of ground survey.
The proposals are in accordance with the Fort Worth Gpinka Airport K8aehe[ Plan and are subject to Federal
Aviation Administration airspace review. Due [othe projected time ofcompletion, staff anticipates there will
be no new revenue associated with this action for this fiscal year.
