IOWA CITY AIRPORT TERMINAL MEMBERS PRESENT: Baron Thrower,Michelle Robnett,Alan Ellis,Randy Hartwig,Rick Mascari STAFF PRESENT: Sue Dulek,Ron O'Neil CALL TO ORDER: Chairperson Ellis called the meeting to order at 5:45 p.m. APPROVAL OF MINUTES: The minutes of the June 12,2003,Commission meeting were approved as submitted. Ellis said he would like an agenda item that would allow for unfinished business to be discussed. O'Neil said he would include that on the next agenda. Mascari said he thought that unfinished business should be included in the Chairperson's report. AUTHORIZATION OF EXPENDITURES: Ellis asked what Commercial Towel does? O'Neil said some restroom supplies are bought from Commercial Towel and they also supply the rugs inside the doors in the Terminal Building. Mascari said he wanted to verity that the Chambers Electric bill was part of the Building D rehab project. Mascari made a motion to pay the bills. Hartwig seconded the motion.The motion passed 5 -0. PUBLIC DISCUSSION—ITEMS NOT ON AGENDA: No items were presented. ITEMS FOR DISCUSSION/ACTION: a. Aviation Commerce Park(ACP)—Tracy Overton,from Iowa Realty,gave his monthly report. He said he spoke with Michael Hodges,from Airport Business Solutions,concerning advertising. Overton said the Commission should discuss what would be needed to connect lots# 1—#4 to the taxiway systems.He said it would be good to have that information in the event that there is an aviation-related business interested in the ACP. Overton said that in speaking with Hodges,they discussed a company called Airport Property Specialists. He said they are a company that specializes in airport properties. Overton said that it may be possible to have a joint marketing effort with that company and he is trying to contact the appropriate person in their office. Overton presented some information to the Commission on what it would cost to advertise in national magazines. In one of the magazines suggested by Hodges,the ads would cost anywhere from$1800 per month to$3800.00 per month. Another publication charged $4200 per month. Overton said he does not think the price of the national ads would be cost effective. He said he thought it would be more effective to do more local advertising. He 1 said it may be possible to have a Chamber Business PM hosted by the Commission for the ACP. Ellis said Jet Air is going to be hosting a PM this fall. There is a waiting list of one to two years to host a PM. Ellis asked if the Council should be involved with helping to fund advertising? Mascari wanted to know if O'Neil knew of any funding source for advertising money? O'Neil said he didn't have any funding source,but since the Commission and Council have a joint agreement with Overton,the Commission may want to discuss advertising with the Council. Mascari said he thought they should take out three$1800 ads,running them every other month. Robnett said maybe they could advertise regionally, instead of nationally. She said that is usually less expensive. Overton said the national ads he looked at were advertising buildings, not undeveloped land. Overton said historically, local advertising has been more effective than national as far a land is concerned. Overton said he would suggest the Commission wait until they receive their report from ABS to decide on advertising. He said ABS might have some views on how the Commission should advertise. Overton said he would follow up with Airport Property Specialists. Thrower asked Overton what he would estimate Iowa Realty has spent on advertising? Overton said it would be difficult to estimate because the ACP is advertised with their other commercial property. He said he would guess it to be$5000 or$6000 over the last two years. Thrower asked Ellis if it was reasonable that Iowa Realty provide an accounting of what they have spent on advertising? Ellis said that when the contract was negotiated,Iowa Realty said that they would probably spend about$5000. The contract did not require an accounting of the advertising. He said it would not be fair to require it at this time. Thrower made a motion to formally require Iowa Realty to provide an accounting of what has been spent on advertising and lay out a plan for additional advertising funds. Mascari seconded the motion. Ellis said he did not think'Thrower could make a motion at this point because it was not on the agenda Mascari said he would like to make a motion to put the marketing issue on the agenda for the next meeting. Ellis said it would be more appropriate for Mascari to bring this up under Commission members' items. After some discussion, it was decided to bring up the issue later in the meeting. Thrower said he would withdraw his motion. Overton said an offer had been received and he would share the offer with the Commission if it moved forward. b. Hangar#31 lease—Ellis said there was a subcommittee that reviewed the lease with the tenant and was to make a recommendation to the Commission. O'Neil circulated a lease that the subcommittee made final changes to. O'Neil said it was almost identical to the lease he had included in the packet. Robnett asked Dulek if she had reviewed the lease. Dulek said she had not been asked to review the lease. She reviewed the liability and insurance but she has not reviewed the entire lease. O'Neil said the tenant wanted a five-year lease. Dulek reminded the Commission that a public hearing is needed if it is more than three years. Ellis said that ABS said a five-year lease is acceptable,as long as there is some mechanism available to review the rent after three years. He said the lease ABS reviewed is not the lease 2 negotiated by the subcommittee. He thought another subcommittee should look at the lease and the comments supplied by ABS. Mascari made a motion to accept the lease circulated by O'Neil at the meeting,with the exception of making it a three-year lease,with a two-year extension. He said the subcommittee had spent a lot of time and he thought it was a fair lease. Robnett seconded the motion. She said a permanent subcommittee should be appointed to review leases. Dulek asked what the option would include? Mascari said the option would continue the lease on with the same terms. Dulek said it would have to be voted on again at the end of the first three years. O'Neil suggested he contact the tenant and discuss the length of the lease. If the tenant wants a five-year lease,O'Neil will publish the public hearing notice for the August meeting. Mascari said he would withdraw his motion. Robnett withdrew her second of the motion. The Commission requested Dulek review the lease,with the recommendations from ABS. Mascari said he thought the Commission should have a special meeting to pass the lease. O'Neil said he would suggest setting a public hearing at the August meeting. Mascari made a motion to set the public hearing for the lease for hangar#31 for August 14,2003. Thrower seconded the motion and it passed 5—0. Ellis said this is not a lease for just one person. He said it should be uniform for all the commercial hangars. c. Environmental Assessment project(consultant H.R.Green)—Joe Trnka, from H.R. Green,presented information. He said the EA noise contours were revised and would be sent to the FAA by the end of next week. He said they would be smaller. Trnka said he used one aircraft that probably should not have been used in the model and it skewed the results. Dick Blum,from H.R.Green, said using daytime versus nighttime hours also had an effect on the noise study. Blum said the FAA also wanted a more detailed explanation of the alternatives. He said most of that information was reviewed in detail in the 1993 feasibility study. Much of that information will be included in the EA report. O'Neil said the information needs to be sent to the FAA as soon as possible to complete the EA so a grant can be applied for. Blum said the FAA has said that they will not pay for design work to see if Runway 07 could be lowered. Blum said he thinks the runway should be lowered and Green may try to convince the FAA of the cost savings involved with changing the runway elevation. d. Strategy/business plan project(consultant ABS)—Ellis said additional information is being sent to ABS. A meeting has been scheduled with the Council for August 18 for a presentation of the initial draft of the report. The Council would like to see the report in advance of the meeting so they have time to review it. Thrower asked if they have provided anything in advance? O'Neil said the draft report was to be their first document. O'Neil said he has asked ABS to provide the draft in electronic form by August 13. All of the Commission members said to send them the report electronically. e. Obstruction mitigation project(consultant Stanley Engineering)—Mike Donnelly,from Stanley,presented a map of all the obstructions and discussed it with the Commission. He said all of the property owners were contacted. Costs to mitigate the obstructions were assigned to all the obstructions. 3 Three of the obstructions were at ground level on the Airport. Donnelly said their estimator might have estimated high on removing the ground. He said he would do a field survey to more accurately determine how much dirt needs to be moved. Thrower noted that there was a building close to the Airport property by Runway 25 that was considered an obstruction. He wanted to know if an obstruction light could be installed? O'Neil said they would look at that possibility. He said that when the survey work was being done for the ACP,one of the survey marks might have indicated that the building is on Airport property. He would follow-up with the survey crew. Blum said the obstruction would be worse if a 50:1 slope is approved. O'Neil said it is important where the obstructions are and their height in relation to the runways. He said it would also be important to reduce the number of obstructions. Ellis asked about the flagpole on the Old Capital Building. Donnelly said the architect from the University said they were going to have an airspace study conducted. An airspace study was suppose to have been done before they installed the flagpole. 1. United hangar disposition- Tmka presented information on what it would cost to remove, restore or rehabilitate the building. Blum said that there would be additional costs to move the brick office part of the building. He said that there could be a significant cost with replacing the roof on the hangar. Ellis asked when the recommendation to the Council needs to be made? He said the Commission does not have funds to rehab or restore the building. Mascari said he thought there should be at least a 20%contingency in the budget for removal or restoration. He said surprises in the Terminal renovation project meant they could not do all they wanted to with that project. He said he would not want to move the hangar and end up with a building that did not pay for itself. Blum said that no matter what was done,there would need to be a historical recording of the building. This could cost as much as$20,000. O'Neil said that disposition of the building would be included in Phase II of the runway extension project. He said that the Commission should get some direction from the Council on whether there is any desire to save the structure. There would be substantial local funds needed to restore the building. The FAA would pay 90%of the moving costs. Mascari asked about whether anyone wanted to rent the office space? O'Neil said that there has been some interest in the office,but a new water line would have to be installed. The old line ruptured and was not replaced because of the cost. Ellis asked if there was any interest yet from the Science Center? O'Neil said that he did not know if the Science Center bad any funds. They wanted to move the building to the ACP and have the property rent-free for at least five years. O'Neil said that he would not advise moving the building if the Commission did not have the funding available to restore it. He said it would not be productive to the Airport to move it and leave it in the repair it is in now. Mascari said although it is a building with a lot of history,he thought it would have to be demolished. He said that the FAA would pay for 90% of the project. Ellis said the Science Center should be contacted. There was not a consensus by the Commission to contact the Science Center. 4 apply to administration of the Airport and would not want to see Roberts limit the dialog of the Commission. Hartwig said although it was not aviation related,he would like to congratulate the Englert group in meeting their goal. Robnett said she would like to see the bushes trimmed more at the Airport entrance. Robnett said she went to Fly Iowa in Cedar Rapids and she said it was not very well organized. She thought the Iowa City annual fly-in was better organized. Robnett said she would like to see if there would be a Vision Iowa grant or some other funding to improve the lighting and install sidewalks on Riverside Drive to the Airport. Robnett wanted to know if someone wanted to have a conference at the airport,was there space available in Building F? O'Neil said Building F is leased to Jet Air. He said that is one of the things the United hangar could be used for if it was moved and restored. Mascari wanted to know if the Commission is making monthly presentations to the Council? Ellis said he was not at the last Council meeting,but he planned on going to the next meeting. Mascari said he would like to put on the next agenda how the agenda is formulated. There was agreement of the Commission to review agenda procedures. ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT: O'Neil said he received a thank you letter from Hills Banks for participation in their Aviation Day on June 14. There will be a temporary tower for the fly-in breakfast on August 24. Dave Larsen,who represents a developer west of the Airport,may be interested in leasing some property. O'Neil told him to present the Commission with a proposal. O'Neil said he received a telephone call from a woman whose father was an airmail pilot in 1927. She has some articles from his estate that discusses the Iowa City Airport in the late 1920's. She said she would send the information to O'Neil. O'Neil said Ross Spitz,from the Public Works Department,is negotiating an agreement to get another 50,000 cubic yards of fill for the ACP.

Chairperson Vice-chairperson AVIATION COMMERCE PARK NAI IOWA REALTY COMMERCIAL Status Report By Tracy K. Overton, 319-354-0989 August, 2003 Executive Summary: I received a request for information this month from a broker regarding a prospect from the East coast that wants to purchase land close in to Iowa City. We also had a party interested in purchasing Lot#1. We were unable to arrive at a mutually acceptable value for the lot. In following up with"Airport Property Specialists",the real estate company specializing in airport property,they would like to review the Airport's master plan and the report from ABS before they consider any joint-marketing arrangement. Administrative Issues: New Issues Old Issues 1. I feel we should check into the feasibility/cost of installing the access-way from ACP to the actual airport taxiways. This will be important if an Aviation related company should have an interest. 2. Signage for the main entryway off of Riverside Dr. Marketing Issues: Advertising Iowa City Chamber"Reflections" Readership—2,000 Ad Size-3"x 5" Monthly Cost: B&W $175.00 per month or$1,900.00 for 12 issues ICAD is doing a piece in their monthly News Letter that will mention and describe ACP.

In addition,there are a few areas in the older lease language that leaves the Commission at risk. As such,it has been a prudent effort on your part to have worked to improve and enhance various sections during the lease update process. As you review the comment column on the each of the following tables,please note that there are certain areas where we believe that accommodations to the tenant could be considered. However,it is our strong opinion that to accept the old lease preferred by the Tenant would not be in the best interest of the Airport, the Commission, other tenants,or the City. Please advise if you have further questions. City of Iowa City MEMORANDUM TO: Iowa City Airport Commission FROM: Susan Dulek, Ass't.

Corporate Hangar Lease with my comments; and 2. ABS comments to two corporate leases. I had Ron send me an electronic version of the corporate lease. Given the various versions of the corporate lease that have been distributed recently, the enclosed may or may not be the exact copy of the one reviewed by ABS. In bold are my responses to the comments and suggestions provided by ABS. On the list of the ABS comments, I have handwritten the corresponding paragraph in the lease where you can find my comments in bold. I have "redlined" my suggested changes. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at 356-5030. Enc. Copy to: Ron O'Neil-w/enc. HANGAR LEASE This HANGAR LEASE ("Lease")entered into by and between the Iowa City Airport Commission ("Commission") and ("Tenant"). In consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein, and for other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereby agree as follows: 1. Lease of the Hangar Space. The Commission hereby leases to Tenant hangar space in Hangar#_(the "Hangar Space") located at the Iowa City Municipal Airport (the "Airport") and described as follows: • . The Hangar Space shall be used and occupied by Tenant principally for the storage or construction of the following aircraft: Aircraft Make & Model Aircraft Registration Number Aircraft Registered Owner Name Registered Owner Home and Business Telephone Numbers Tenant shall promptly notify the Commission in writing of any change in the information furnished above. Tenant may request permission to store a substitute aircraft in the Hangar Space by making a written request to the Commission. In the event Tenant is permitted to store a substitute aircraft in the Hangar Space, all provisions of this Lease applicable to the Aircraft shall also be applicable to the substitute aircraft. 2. Term. The term of this Lease shall commence on , 20 , and shall end on the last day of the month of , 20_ Tenant agrees to notify the Commission 45-days prior to the expiration of the existing term if the Tenant does not intend to negotiate another term. In the event Tenant shall continue to occupy the Hangar Space beyond the term of this Lease without executing a Lease for another term, such holding over shall not constitute a renewal of this Lease but shall be a month-to-month tenancy only. [The term of the lease is a policy matter, not a legal question.] 3. Rent. For use of the Hangar Space, Tenant shall pay the Commission the amount of $ per month, payable in advance on the first day of each month. A 1.5% late fee (which is $ _per day)for rent not received by the Commission will be charged after the fifteenth (15) day of each month. [The amount of rent is a policy matter, not a legal matter.] 4. Security Deposit. At the time of execution of this Lease, Tenant shall pay to the Commission in trust the sum of one month's rent to be held as a rental deposit. In the event that the tenant renews the lease, the deposit will be held for the next lease term. If the Ttenant does not continue on with a renewed lease, the Commission shall return the deposit to the Tenant, less any amounts due the Commission for rent and damages to the Hangar Space. [The amount of the deposit is a policy matter, not a legal one. However, the purpose of a deposit is to cover the costs to repair and one month's rent is probably inadequate. When drafting the t-hangar lease, I had suggested 2 months, but it's strictly a policy question.] 5. Use of the Hangar Space and Oeffice a. The Hangar Space shall be used primarily for storage or construction of the Aircraft consistent with FAFt federal regulations and the Minimum Standards. Tenant acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Minimum Standards. 2 b. Tenant may park his/her car in the Hangar Space during such time that Tenant is using the Aircraft. c. This provision is not to be construed as a prohibition for storage of maintenance • materials, cleaning materials, tools, parts, spares, and other aircraft components. d. Commercial activity of any kind shall not be conducted by Tenant in, from or around the Hangar Space unless prior written approval is received from the Commission, as stated in the Minimum Standards. e. No maintenance on the Aircraft shall be performed in the Hangar Space or anywhere on the Airport without the prior written approval of the Commission, except such maintenance as performed by the Tenant on his or her own aircraft as permitted by the FAA. Tenant shall take steps to ensure that the performance of such maintenance work shall not damage the Hangar Space or the Airport where the work is performed. f. Tenant shall be responsible and liable for the conduct of its invitees, and in and around the Hangar Space. Tenant shall keep the Hangar Space clean and free of debris at all times. g. In utilizing the Hangar Space during the term of this Lease, Tenant shall comply with all applicable ordinances, rules, and regulations established by federal, state or local government agencies. h. - - .• ._ - . . -_. _ . - - . (see paragraph 11 below At no time shall Tenant start or run his/her Aircraft engine(s)within the Hangar or Hangar Space. j. On the termination of this Lease, by expiration or otherwise, Tenant shall immediately surrender possession of the Hangar Space and shall remove, at its sole expense, the Aircraft and all other property therefrom, leaving the Hangar Space in the same condition as when received, ordinary wear and tear excepted. k. Tenant shall be liable for any and all damage to the Hangar or to the Hangar Space caused by Tenant's use, including, but not limited to, bent or broken interior walls, damage due to fuel spillage, or damage to doors due to Tenant's improper or negligent operation. Tenant agrees, at its own expense, to pay for the monthly costs of all utilities, except water and sewer, for the Hhangar Space. amend—ems Commission agrees to furnish monthly water and sewer service at no expense to the Tenant. Tenant is responsible for his or her own refuse disposal. 6. Rights and Obligations of Tenant. a. Tenant shall have at all times the right of ingress to and egress from the Hangar Space, except as provided in Paragraph 12. To ensure this right, the Commission shall make all reasonable efforts to keep adjacent areas to the Hangar Space free and clear of all hazards and obstructions, natural or manmade. b. Tenant shall be responsible to maintain the interior of the Hangar Space to include janitorial services, maintaining all interior lights, keeping faucets closed so as to prevent waste of water and flooding of the premises, to promptly take care of any leakage or stoppage in any of the water, gas, or waste pipes inside the hangar building, to repair any damage to electrical circuits due to 3 overloading, cleaning of snow within two (2) feet of the hangar, disposing of any debris or waste materials, and maintaining any Tenant constructed structures and equipment. Tenant agrees to maintain adequate heat to prevent freezing of pipes and is responsible for minor plumbing repairs. The Commission shall be the sole judge of the maintenance undertaken by the Tenant, and may upon written notice, require specific maintenance work to be completed. If such maintenance is not completed within a reasonable time period, the Commission shall have the right to perform such due maintenance, and Tenant shall reimburse the Commission for the cost of such maintenance upon presentation of a billing. Tenant, at its own expense, may paint and carpet the office space. Tenant shall make no structural alterations or improvements without first obtaining the Commission's written approval of the plans and specifications. (Do all corp. hangars have offices?1 c.

The Commission shall maintain and keep the Hangar and Hangar Space in good repair except for the maintenance obligations of Tenant set forth in the Lease.

However, if due to any negligent or willful act by the Tenant, its agents, servants, invitees or customer, there is a need for maintenance or repair of damage, then Tenant shall perform se such maintenance or repair in a prompt, reasonable manner, as approved by the Commission. d. Snow shall be removed from in front of Hangar Space to within at least two (2) feet of the Hangar. Snow removal closer than two (2) feet is shall be the responsibility of the Tenant. e. The Commission shall ensure appropriate grounds keeping is performed year round. 8. Sublease/Assignment. Tenant shall not sublease the Hangar Space or assign this Lease without the prior written approval of the Commission. 9. Condition of Premises. 4 • Tenant shall accept the Hangar Space in its present condition without any liability or obligation on the part of the Commission to make any alterations, improvements or repairs of any kind on or about said Hangar Space. 10. Alterations. Tenant shall not install any fixtures or make any alterations, additions or improvements to the Hangar Space without the prior written approval of the Commission. All fixtures installed or additions and improvements made to the Hangar Space shall, upon completion of such additions and improvements, become Commission property and shall remain in the Hangar Space at the expiration or termination of this Lease, however terminated, without compensation or payment to Tenant. Fixtures include, but are not limited to, locks, brackets for window coverings, plumbing, light fixtures, luminaries, and any item permanently attached to the wall, floor, or ceiling of the Hangar Space by means of concrete, plaster, glue, nails, bolts, or screws. 11. Hazardous Materials. a. No "hazardous substance," as defined in Iowa Code section 4556.411 (20043), may be stored, located, or contained in the Hangar Space without the Commission prior written approval and proper storage containers. b. Tenant shall handle, use, store and dispose of fuel petroleum products, and all other non-"hazardous substances" owned or used by it on the Airport in accordance with all applicable federal, state, local and airport statutes, regulations, rules and ordinances [ABS suggests refering to the federal regulations. The definition of "hazardous substance" in section 455B.411 of the Iowa Code is the same one as in the federal statute and the federal regs so there's no reason to refer to federal law.] 12. Special Events. During special events at the Airport, Tenant acknowledges that the standard operating procedure at the Airport may be altered such that egress and ingress to the Hangar Space may be altered by the Commission. Tenant's failure to comply with the altered procedure is a default of this Lease, and the Commission may proceed to terminate this Lease. 13. Airport Rules and Regulations. Tenant agrees to be subject to Airport rules and regulations upon adoption by the Commission or provide 30-days notice to terminate this Lease. Commission shall provide Tenant with a copy of said and regulations 30-days prior to their effective date. 14. Access and Inspection. The Commission has the right to enter and inspect the Hangar Space at any reasonable time during the term of this Lease upon at least 24 hours notice to the Tenant for any purpose necessary, incidental to or connected with the performance of its obligations under the Lease or in the exercise of its governmental functions. In the case of an emergency, the Commission may enter the Hangar Space without prior notice but will provide notice to the Tenant after the fact. The Commission shall not, during the course of any such inspection, unreasonably interfere with the Tenant's use and enjoyment of the Hangar Space. At a minimum, the Hangar Space will be inspected annually. Upon execution of this Lease, if the Tenant wants to change the lock to the Hangar Space, he or she shall provide written notice to the Airport Manager before he or she does so and shall provide a key to the Manager within twenty-four hours of changing the lock. 15. Insurance. 5 a. Tenant shall at its own expense procure and maintain general liability and casualty insurance in a company or companies authorized to do business in the State of Iowa, in the following amounts: Tyne of Coveraqe Comprehensive General (or Premises)Liability- Each Occurrence $1,000,000 b. Tenant's insurance carrier shall be A rated or better by A.M. Best. Tenant shall name the Commission and the City of Iowa City, as additional insured. The Commission and Tenant acknowledge that a Certificate of Insurance is attached to this Lease. Tenant shall provide fifteen (15) days notice to the Commission before cancellation of said insurance. [ABS asked why the $2 million aggregate was not included. The City's preferred language is to include a $2 mill aggregate provision, but the Commission chose not to do so w/the T-hangar lease. The $2 mill aggregate is to the Tenant's advantage because it limits tenant liability to $2 mill total. W/o that provision, there is no such cap, just the cap of$1 mil per occurance.] 16. Casualty. In the event the Hangar or Hangar Space, or the means of access thereto, shall be damaged by fire or any other cause, the rent payable hereunder shall not abate provided that the Hangar Space is not rendered untenantable by such damage. If the Hangar Space is rendered untenantable and Commission elects to repair the Hangar or Hangar Space, the rent shall abate for the period during which such repairs are being made, provided the damage was not caused by the acts or omissions of Tenant, its employees, agent or invitees, in which case the rent shall not abate. If the Hangar or Hangar Space is rendered untenantable and Commission elects not to repair the Hangar or Hangar Space, this Lease shall terminate. 17. Indemnity. Tenant agrees to release, indemnify and hold the Commission, its officers and employees harmless from and against any and all liabilities, damages, business interruptions, delays, losses, claims, judgments, of any kind whatsoever, including all costs, attorneys' fees, and expenses incidental thereto, which may be suffered by, or charged to, the Commission by reason of any loss or damage to any property or injury to or death of any person arising out of or by reason of any breach, violation or non- performance by Tenant or its servants, employees or agents of any covenant or condition of the Lease or by any act or failure to act of those persons. The Commission shall not be liable for its failure to perform this Lease or for any loss, injury, damage or delay of any nature whatsoever resulting therefrom caused by any act of God, fire, flood, accident, strike, labor dispute, riot, insurrection, war or any other cause beyond Commission's control. 18. Disclaimer of Liability. The Commission hereby disclaims, and Tenant hereby releases the Commission from any and all liability, whether in contract or tort(including strict liability and negligence)for any loss, damage or injury of any nature whatsoever sustained by Tenant, its employees, agents or invitees during the term of this Lease, including, but not limited to, loss, damage or injury to the Aircraft or other property of Tenant that may be located or stored in the Hangar Space, unless such loss, damage or injury is caused by the Commission's gross negligence or intentional willful misconduct. The parties hereby agree that under no circumstances shall the Commission be liable for indirect consequential, special or exemplary damages, whether in contract or tort (including 6 • strict liability and negligence), such as, but not limited to, loss of revenue or anticipated profits or other damage related to the leasing of the Hangar Space under this Lease. 19. Attorney Fees. If the Commission files an action in district court to enforce its rights under this Lease and if judgment is entered against the Tenant, Tenant shall be liable to and shall pay for the Commission's attorney fees incurred in enforcing the Lease and in obtaining the judgment. 20. Event of Default. This lease shall be breached if: (a) Tenant fails to make the rental payment; or (b) Tenant or the Commission fails to perform any other covenant herein and such default shall continue for five (5)days after the receipt by the other party of written notice. [ABS suggests a longer cure period than 5 days. That's a policy decision. ] Upon the default by Tenant, or at any time thereafter during the continuance of such default, the Commission may take any of the following actions and shall have the following rights against Tenant: a. Termination. Commission may elect to terminate theis (Lease by giving no less than thirty (30) days prior written notice thereof to Tenant and upon passage of time specified in such notice, this lease and all rights of Tenant hereunder shall terminate as fully and completely and with the same effect as if such date were the date herein fixed for expiration of the Term and Tenant shall remain liable as provided in this paragraph. b. Eviction. Commission shall have the immediate right upon Termination of this lease to bring an action for forcible entry and detainer. • c. Tenant to remain liable. No termination of this lease pursuant to this paragraph, by operation or otherwise, and no repossession of the #Hangar sSpace or any part therof shall relieve Tenant of its liabilities and obligations hereunder, all of which shall survive such termination, reposssession or reletting. d. Damages. In the event of any termination of this lease or eviction from or repossession of the hHangar sSpace or any part thereof by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default, Tenant shall pay to the Commisison the rent and other sums and charges required to be paid by Tenant for the period to and including the end of the Term. 21. Security. Tenant acknowledges that the FAA or another governmental entity or subdivision may enact laws or regulations regarding security at general aviation airports such that the Commission may not be able to comply fully with its obligations under this Lease, and Tenant agrees that the Commission shall not be liable for any damages to Tenant that may result from said non-compliance. [ABS suggests being more specific in light of the Dept. of Homeland Security. Perhaps Ron or ABS can locate language that the FAA may be suggesting.] 22. Thirty (30) Days Termination. Either party to this Lease shall have the right, with cause, to terminate this Lease by giving thirty(30) days' prior written notice to the other party. [Again, the length of notice to terminate is a policy question.] 23. Non-Discrimination. Tenant shall not discriminate against any person in employment or public accommodation because of race, religion, color, creed, gender identity, sex, national origin, sexual orientation, mental or physical disability, marital status or age. "Employment" shall include but not be limited to hiring, accepting, registering, classifying, promoting, or referring to employment. "Public accommodation" shall include but not be limited to providing goods, services, facilities, privileges and advantages to the public. 7 24. FAA Provisions. [ABS states that some of the Subpar. (a) and (b) below are duplicative of Par. 23. To a large extent, that's true. Par. 23 is a standard paragraph in all City contracts because it reflects the City ordinance. It is broader than below • because the City protects more categories of people from discrimination. Also, the FAA requires Subpar. (a) and (b) in all leases. I confirmed this w/Nicoletta Oliver w/in the last year or so. For those reasons, altho duplicative in part, I suggest just keeping Par. 23 as is as well as subpar. (a) and (b). Par (c) and (d) are only required by the FAA if the lessee provides an "aeronautical service to the public." Subpar. (e) to (k) are just FAA suggestions, not requirements.] a. Tenant, for itself, heirs, personal representatives, successors in interest, and assigns, as a part of the consideration hereof, does hereby covenant and agree as a covenant running with the land that in the event facilities are constructed, maintained, or otherwise operated on the said property described in this (license, lease, permit, etc.) for a purpose for which a Department of Transportation program or activity is extended or for another purpose involving the provision of similar services or benefits, the (licensee, lessee, permittee, etc.) shall maintain and operate such facilities and services in compliance with all other requirements imposed pursuant to 49 CFR Part 21, Nondiscrimination in Federally Assisted Programs of the Department of Transportation, and as said Regulations may be amended. b. Tenant, for itself, personal representatives, successors in interest, and assigned, as a part of the consideration hereof, does hereby covenant and agree as a covenant running with the land that: (1) no person on the grounds of race, color, or national origin shall be excluded from participation in, denied the benefits of, or be otherwise subject to discrimination in the use of said facilities, (2) that in the construction of any improvements on, over, or under such land and the furnishing of services thereon, no person on the grounds of race, color, or national origin shall be excluded from participation in, denied the benefits of, or otherwise be subject to discrimination, (3) that Tenant, shall use the premises in compliance with all other requirements imposed by or pursuant to 49 CFR Part 21, Nondiscrimination in Federally Assisted Programs of the Department of Transportation, and as said Regulations may be amended. c. It is understood and agreed that nothing herein contained shall be construed to grant or authorize the granting of an exclusive right within the meaning of Section 308 of the Federal Aviation Act of 1958. This Lease shall be subordinate to the provisions of any outstanding or future agreement between the Commission and the United States government or the Commission and the State of Iowa relative to the maintenance, operation, or development of the Iowa City Municipal Airport. Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the rights granted to Tenant in this Lease will not be exercised so as to interfere with or adversely affect the use, operation, maintenance or development of the Airport d. Tenant agrees to furnish service on a fair, equal and not unjustly discriminatory basis to all users thereof, and to charge fair, reasonable and not unjustly discriminatory prices for each unit or service; provided, that Tenant may make • reasonable and non-discriminatory discounts, rebates, or other similar types of price reductions to volume purchasers. e. The Commission reserves the right (but shall not be obligated to Tenant) to maintain and in repair the landing area of the airport and all publicly-owned facilities of the airport, together with the right to direct and control all activities of Tenant in this regard. 8 f. The Commission reserves the right further to develop or improve the landing area and all publicly-owned air navigation facilities of the airport as it sees fit, regardless of the desires or views of Tenant, and without interference or hindrance. g. The Commission reserves the right to take any action it considers necessary to protect the aerial approaches of the airport against obstructions, together with the right to prevent Tenant from erecting, or permitting to be erected, any building or other structure on the airport which in the opinion of the Commission would limit the usefulness of the airport or constitute a hazard to aircraft. h. During time of war or national emergency, the Commission shall have the right to enter into an agreement with the United States Government for military or naval use of part or all of the landing area, the publicly-owned air navigation facilities and/or other areas or facilities of the airport. If any such agreement is executed, the provisions of this instrument, insofar as they are inconsistent with the provisions of the agreement with the Government, shall be suspended. i. It is understood and agreed that the rights granted by this Lease will not be exercised in such a way as to interfere with or adversely affect the use, operation, maintenance or development of the airport. j. There is hereby reserved to the Commission, its successors and assigns, for the use and benefit of the public, a free and unrestricted right of flight for the passage of aircraft in the airspace above the surface of the premises herein conveyed, together with the right to cause in said airspace such noise as may be inherent in the operation of aircraft, now known or hereafter used for navigation of or flight in the air, using said airspace or landing at, taking off from, or operating on or about the airport. • k. The Lease shall become subordinate to provisions of any existing or future agreement between the Commission and the United States of America or any agency thereof relative to the operation, development, or maintenance of the airport, the execution of which has been or may be required as a condition precedent to the expenditure of federal funds for the development of the airport. 25. Remedies Cumulative. The rights and remedies with respect to any of the terms and conditions of this Lease shall be cumulative and not exclusive, and shall be in addition to all other rights and remedies available to either party in law or equity. 26.

Integration. This Lease constitutes the entire agreement between the parties, and as of its effective date supersedes all prior independent agreements between the parties related to the leasing of the Hangar Space.

O C' IOWA CITY MUNICIPAL AIRPORT 1801 South Riverside Drive Iowa City, Iowa 52246 Office Phone(319)356-5045 Memorandum To: Shelley McCafferty, Urban Planner From: Ron O'Neil, Airport Manager Date: August 5, 2003 Re: United hangar It is my understanding that you are the staff contact for the Historic Preservation Commission. The Airport Commission has asked me to contact you concerning a project they are working on to see if the Historic Preservation Commission has any interest in restoring a building. The project is to mitigate obstructions to navigation on and around the Airport. One of the obstructions is the hangar building at 1701 South Riverside Drive. The building is considered an obstruction to the approach to Runway 25. It was constructed in the late 1920's by United Airlines. United signed a 50 year contract with Iowa City in 1930 to provide commercial air service. The contract required them to maintain the hangar and two runways. The Commission has three choices for disposition of the building. All would require a historic recording of the building before any option is selected. One option would be to tear down the building. Mother option would be to move the building and rehab it as a useable hangar. A third option would be to move the building and restore it to its original condition. State or federal funding may be available to tear down the building or to move it. There is not funding available to rehab or restore the building. If the Historic Preservation Commission has an interest in this building, the Commission would like to invite someone to attend the next Commission meeting on August 14, 2003, at 5:45 p.m. The meeting is at the Airport, in Building E. Disposition of the Untied hangar will be on the agenda.

IOWA CITY AIRPORT TERMINAL MEMBERS PRESENT: Rick Mascari,Michelle Robnett,Mark Anderson,Alan Ellis, STAFF PRESENT: Sue Dulek,Ron O'Neil CALL TO ORDER: Vice-Chairperson Ellis called the meeting to order at 5:50 p.m. PUBLIC DISCUSSION—ITEMS NOT ON AGENDA: Dennis Gordon said he is making improvements to Building H and he would like to amend his lease to say that if he exercised the five year option on his lease,he would want any rent increase tied to the CPI or some other recognized index. Dulek said that would require an amendment to his lease. Ellis said this could be on the agenda for the May meeting. Gordon said the University's Synthetic Vision project was on schedule and the 737-800 simulator has been built and should be shipped to Iowa City soon. He thought they would spend the summer assembling the simulator and have it operational this fall. (Chairperson Anderson arrived at 6:03 p.m.) Tom Schnell,from the University of Iowa's Synthetic Vision project,said there is an opportunity to site two other simulators at the Airport. He said it is too early to submit a proposal to the Commission. He will keep the Commission informed as the project develops. ITEMS FOR DISCUSSION/ACTION: d. IOW Aero lease-Ron Duffe,from IOW Aero,said he would like to amend his lease on Building D. He said the termination date is May 31,2004. He would like to have the lease extended to December 31,2004. Duffe said that would give IOW a longer time to depreciate the improvements they made to the building. Ellis made a motion to amend the IOW Building D lease. Robnett seconded the motion and at roll call vote,the motion passed 4-0,with Ruyle being absent. b. Fuel site-100LL fuel pump and final approval-Dick Blum,from H.R.Green,said Double Check had promised him a new computer and card reader would be installed on Monday,April 8. When they didn't show up by Wednesday,he contacted Paul Sundby and was assured that the installation would be completed by no later than Wednesday,April 17, 2002. Mascari asked if there had been any more incidents of the pump not working? Duffe said it bad only worked for a short time in the last three weeks. O'Neil said he would recommend having the Commission direct Dulek to send a letter to Double Check,terminating their contract and informing them that the problems would be 1 h. Agenda protocol- Anderson said the issue here is what procedure does the Commission want to follow to place an item on the agenda or direct staff to do research on an issue. He asked what the Council's policy was in this regard? Ellis said he thought the Mayor or three Council members could have an item placed on the agenda. Anderson said the Commission's policy could be two members or the Chairperson. Anderson asked about giving directions to staff? Ellis said he thought the same policy as with agenda items. O'Neil said it doesn't matter to him what the Commission decides,he just needed to know so that everything is consistent. Ellis said he wants to know specifically whether something he suggests is going to be acted on. O'Neil suggested the Commission stay with what they have always informally done and that it is the Chairperson's agenda to set. Robnett moved to accept the policy. Ellis seconded the motion and it was passed 4-0,with Ruyle being absent. O'Neil reminded the Commission that he places many of the items on the agenda for items that need action by the Commission. He does not place new items on the agenda unless directed by the Commission or they are general "housekeeping" issues. i. North T-hangars leases- Ellis said he is on the subcommittee for this issue and he would like to defer this agenda item until the next Commission meeting. Mascari said his aircraft insurance automatically covers the liability insurance required by the Commission. J. Building IC-insurance claim- ONeil said Assistant City Attorney Andy Matthews provided the Commission with their options for trying to recover insurance money from the contractor to pay to reconstruct the building after it collapsed during construction. O'Neil said that the item was on the agenda for the Commission if they wanted to pursue further action. Ellis said that upon Matthews's recommendation,he thought the Commission made the decision not to pursue the matter. O'Neil said he spoke with Erin Herting,the City's Risk Manager,and she agreed with Matthew's recommendation. Anderson made a suggestion that the Commission send the City Manager a memo,explaining that on advice of City staff,the matter would not be pursued. k. ARFF training-Ellis requested this be on the agenda. Ellis said Jet Air would provide aircraft for the Fire Department to use for training for Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting training. He said it would be helpful for firefighters to be familiar with the kind of aircraft that Jet Air flies. It would be helpful to know things like where the battery is located and where the fuel shut off valves are. ONeil said he would contact the Fire Department training officer and Jet Air's chief pilot and see when they would like to do some training. O'Neil said he would see if the FAA Central Region's mobile ARFF unit would be available for training. O'Neil suggested that the volunteer fire departments in Johnson County be contacted if the mobile trainer is scheduled for Iowa City. Robnett said that if the training is scheduled,the Commission should advertise with public service announcements. L Buildings A,B,&C-overdue rent- This item was deferred until the May meeting. 4 BY-LAWS IOWA CITY MUNICIPAL AIRPORT COMMISSION ARTICLE 1. MEETINGS— Section 1. Regular Meetings.

The expense#is 64409. This expense has been charged to the employee benefits fund in the past. However there are two reasons to show these costs within the individual departments: 1. Not all departments qualify to use the employee benefits fund 2. Charging this expense to the department more accurately reflects personnel costs. This cost will be highest for those that have significant temporary employee budgets. I will establish FY04 department budgets based on the totals for FY03 at the time we process carryover budget amendments. This will not be a use of General Fund Contingency since costs in the general fund will be funded from the employee benefits levy transfer. Karen Jennings in Personnel reviews and pays the unemployment bill, so if you have questions on a specific charge please contact her. Contact me if you have any questions on what this means to your budget Thanks. • 1 City of Iowa City MEMORP\I4DU !NI Date: July 16, 2003 To: Department Directors From: City Manager Re: Procurement Requirements As you are aware, the reduction in State aid to local governments has had a major impact on the City's General Fund budget.

I am the Executive Vice President of American Airports Corporation("AAC"),a company specialising in General Aviation airport management, operations (including security and safety), marketing, business and land development services; and aviation property ownership and management in the United States. Our mission is to provide quality service to the airport owners and airport tenants,promote aviation, establish a superior community outreach program, and enhance the asset value of the airport and/or aviation facility. We focus on assisting airport owners in turning their airports into a highly profitable facility, with a primary focus on underutilized assets. AAC will invest money in and/or provide for the financing, development, leasing and management of new terminals, hangars,FBOs,storage facilities and other aviation-related facilities. Furthermore, AAC can assist in creating a business plan and developing non-aviation-related opportunities at airports. Several examples are: recreational development (e.g., golf courses and sports parks); commercial development(e.g.,office buildings and industrial parks);and other revenue-generating developments. AAC is one of the largest operators of airports and aviation facilities on general aviation airports in the country.We operate on nine airports with over 1,650 tenants, four separate government agencies, and 125+ employees. Our senior management has over 100 years of aviation management experience in everything from airport property development,rates and fees, real estate marketing and negotiations,to business development,Part 139 studies, and operations. I am writing to let you know that AAC has taken a keen interest in Iowa City Municipal Airport.I believe that your airport possesses unique opportunities for development and growth. The types of contracts that we provide to other public airport owners range from a straight management contract to a long-term lease of the airport, with participation in the revenues by the public agency. This could also include guaranteeing any operating deficits. If appropriate,I would enjoy the opportunity to explain our company and services in greater detail. I would like to thank you,in advance,for your consideration.We are always interested in seeking new opportunities to grow AAC. We would also appreciate being included on any lists for all RFPs relating to FBO operations or development,aviation property leasing or development,and property management. Should you be interested now or in the future in any airport investment, management or development opportunities for Iowa City Municipal Airport, please do not hesitate to contact me.I can be reached at(310)752-0540 or at rclifford@americanairports.net.

I will take up the matter with Erin Herting to see if a waiver or compromise can be arranged for 2006. The DPA was highly interested in the airport itself and in Jay Honeck's motel and asked me to continue efforts for a fly-in in Iowa City for 2006. Thanks for your help.

Security guidelines for general aviation are being discussed at the national level and will probably be finalized by the end of the year. The general aviation industry should look at these guidelines and suggestions as opportunities to secure their investments. We will be meeting with general aviation managers, city officials,fixed-base operators and pilots to discuss the role of TSA,the Iowa DOT,and the local airports in security issues. Eight meetings will be scheduled during September in Eastern Iowa for information sharing between TSA,the Iowa DOT, and local airports. TSA and Iowa DOT staff will also conduct site visits of general aviation airports in Eastern Iowa. TSA representatives Deputy Federal Security Director Robert Boleyn and the stakeholder manager Walter Charles, who both work for TSA Moline Operations will be joined by Office of Aviation staff during the visits and meetings. Bob Dickens,AOPA Midwest Regional Representative,will also join us for many of the visits. A schedule of eastern Iowa meetings and site visits will be sent to you during August. We encourage you to inform pilots,tenants,and city officials of these meetings. TSA has requested information from you regarding the emergency contact person at your airport. Please cooperate by providing this information. We are working with TSA to ensure that they have current emergency contact information. We look forward to visiting your airport and meeting with you and others interested in general aviation security. The meetings will provide valuable information on how to provide appropriate security at your airport, as well as information pilots should know as they travel to other airports. We truly see this as an opportunity for the Iowa DOT and local airports to take an active role in security discussions and decisions.

Riverside Iowa City,IA 52246 Dear Ron: I am sure that many of you have been asked these questions: "How many aircraft actually use your airport?" "When people fly in, what are they in town for?" "Why do we even need an airport?" In order to gain a better understanding of how pilots use Iowa's aviation system, the Office of Aviation is creating a"Pilot's Logbook." The intent of the logbook is to gain important information about the usage of Iowa airports. It is our intent that pilots fill out the simple form each time they visit an Iowa airport. Our office will compile the information and make it available on an annual basis to airport operators, community leaders, and office personnel in order to make more informed decisions and to gain a better understanding of types of aviation activity levels at our airports. It is our office's intent to provide the pilot logbooks to all airports in the state that have facilities. Your support is crucial to the success of this initiative. Through these logbook entries,the Office of Aviation hopes to better understand and address the needs of pilots and airports. The logbook materials will start arriving at your airport during the month of September. Our office will produce logbook sheets,a poster and a survey box for use at all airport facilities around the state. All you have to do is place these materials in a public area and promote the use of these logsheets. The Office of Aviation will then pick up the materials or provide envelopes to mail the information back to our office. Next month, a letter describing our office's initiative will be sent to all registered pilots in the state of Iowa. It will fully explain the purpose of this logbook and act as a request for participation from the flying community. Through your support of this initiative and the pilot's participation in the process,we hope to improve Iowa's aviation system. It takes all of us working together to make Iowa a safer and better place to fly. If you have any questions or concerns with this initiative,please feel free to contact me at 515-239-1659 or michelle.mceneny@state.ia.dot.us.
