Presenters: Mr. Schone and Ms. Culler Ms. Culler provided background information on the proposed lease amendment and modifications to the Minimum Annual Guarantee. She explained that the leases are currently scheduled to expire at the end of October of this year and that by extending the terms, the leases would be extended until the new Rental Car Facility is opened. Responding to Commissioner Creighton's question about mid-term investments as related to these leases and whether or not the Rental Car Companies currently have incentives to keep up their spaces, Ms. Culler stated that there is no mid-term provision in the lease and does not believe it is necessary and that the areas are well maintained. Mr. Schone clarified in response to a question from Commissioner Davis that this plan has been reviewed with all of the Rental Car Companies and is supported by all of them. He also noted that Port legal counsel has been involved throughout the process. Commissioner Davis reiterated the importance of accurate documentation of the entire process in case of any future audit. Commissioner Hara also commented on the need to assure that we are clearly within legal authority to extend the lease terms rather than rebidding at this time. Craig Watson, Port General Counsel confirmed that in this particular case there is nothing that requires an RFP.
