etc. at the Airport.

Currently there are fifteen (15) ATMs located throughout the Airport. ATM services is a critical
item required by both the traveling public but also airport tenants and their employees. As part

services, but also provide a location for merchant ATM deposits, which allows Airport Dining and
Retail (ADR) tenants and airport employees the ability to deposit end-of-day cash in an efficient
and safe manner. 
Due to banking regulations and the nature of the services provided, staff will utilize a modified
RFP process that reflects Commission's guidance used in the ADR Master Plan Lease Groups as

the Airport. In addition, the current operator provides food and beverage vending services to

flight delays such as those caused by a snow event.

ALTERNATIVES AND IMPLICATIONS CONSIDERED 
Staff is recommending the second, preferred alternative described below. 
Alternative 1  Negotiate new ATM and Food & Beverage Vending Agreements with the current
ATM and Food and Beverage Vending Operators 
Pros: 
(1)   Doesn't require the Port to undergo the RFP process. 
(2)   There will be no potential loss of services provided. 
Cons: 
(1)   Inhibits the process of fair competition. 
(2)   Port will not get the benefits of a competitive process and innovations available with
each of these RFPs. 
This is not the recommended alternative. 
Alternative 2  Issue competitive RFPs for both ATM and Food and Beverage Vending Services. 
Pros: 
(1)   Allows for fair competition. 
(2)   Creates additional opportunities for new ACDBE businesses and the introduction of new
innovations in technology. 
Cons: 
(1)   Due to the current pandemic and economic environment, the Port may not receive
responses to either RFP. 
This is the recommended alternative.
