BOARD OF COUNTY COMMISSIONERS
AGENDA REQUEST
DATE: August 20, 2013
TO: Honorable Chairman and Members of the Board
FROM: Sunil Harman
SUBJECT: AOL Blue Horizon and J R Skyways to Harvey Williams
DEPARTMENT: Airport
BCC DISTRICT: All
STATEMENT OF ISSUE: A proposed Assignment of Lease for hangar space from Blue
Horizon Aviation, Inc. and J & R Skyways, Inc. to Mr. Harvey Williams for Block 2 Lot 3 at the
Bob Sikes Airport is being presented to the Board of County Commissioners for approval.
BACKGROUND: Blue Horizon Aviation and J & R Skyways previously entered into a ground
lease for hangar space Block 2 Lot 3 at the Bob Sikes Airport and now assigns their
responsibilities to Mr. Harvey Williams. Mr. Williams plans an extensive renovation to the
existing hangar. Mr. Williams plans to enclose the current hangar, install a hydraulic door and
other upgrades with the total price of the renovation being $117,462.00. Renovation plans are
attached. Blue Horizon and J & R Skyways only had nine years remaining until termination of
the lease. Nine years is not enough time for Mr. Williams for amortization of his investment for
his renovation. The lease was renegotiated to add an additional twenty years. The twenty year
extension will be contingent upon Mr. Williams completing the renovation by December 31,
2015. Blue Horizon Aviation and J & R Skyways is in compliance with all terms and conditions
of their lease. The Assignment of Lease transfer fee has been received. The contract and lease
internal coordination sheet is attached along with Mr. Williams' certificates of insurance.
OPTIONS: Approve, Reject or Table.
RECOMMENDATIONS: It is Staff's recommendation that the Board approve this Assignment
of Lease as described above.
