Background:

RECOMMENDATION:

Enact an Ordinance approving and authorizing Amendment No. 4 to a Lease Agreement with Aero Houston Central, LP for certain premises at George Bush Intercontinental Airport/Houston (IAH) and setting a maximum contract amount of $51,706.45.

 

SPECIFIC EXPLANATION:

On November 30, 1982, City Council approved a Lease Agreement with The King Interests, Inc. for 151,056 square feet of land in the central cargo area of George Bush Intercontinental Airport/Houston (“IAH”) for the business of conducting air and ground transportation for hire of cargo and freight.  Aero Houston Central, LP ("Aero"), is the current successor-in-interest and the Lease Agreement has been amended three times.

 

On May 24, 2017, City Council approved Amendment No. 3 to enable relocation of HAS fleet maintenance operations, necessitated by United Airline’s technical operations center development, to Aero’s Building G premises until replacement facilities could be built. The term was for two years with subsequent month-to-month extensions. Replacement premises for HAS fleet maintenance are currently scheduled to be completed by September 30, 2021. Amendment No. 4 will enable HAS fleet maintenance to continue operating at Aero’s Building G premises for 4 additional months.

 

The pertinent terms of Amendment No. 4 are as follows:

 

Premises:

10,800 square feet of space in Central Cargo Building G – Suite 300 at 18201 Viscount (same as present).

 

Use:

Premises shall be used and occupied solely for the servicing of vehicles owned and operated by HAS (same as present).

 

Use Term:

City's use of the Premises on a month-to-month basis shall be allowed to continue until September 30, 2021, terminable by either party upon thirty (30) days’ advance written notice to the other party.

 

Monthly Use Fee:

$13.70 per square foot per year.  Based upon the square footage of the Premises, deemed to be 10,800 square feet, the Monthly Use Fee shall be $12,330.00 per month. Credits against the rent Aero owes the City are currently being used but are set to be exhausted near the end of May 2021; after such time, payments will be issued to Aero not to exceed the maximum contract amount of $51,706.45.
