This Order will authorize the City Manager to execute a construction and development agreement between the the City of Bangor and C&L Aerospace, in the amount of $3,548,004 for the expansion of aircraft maintenance facilities at the airport. This Order will also rescind Council Order 16-348, adopted on September 12, 2016, which authorized a previous construction agreement between the Parties. Through this original agreement, the City obtained an Economic Development Administration (EDA) grant of $1,243,004 which was to be used for this expansion. Included in the original agreement, the City agreed to fund $310,000 of the required matching funds for specific parts of the project and C&L agreed to fund the balance of the matching grant amount of $1,243,004. As the Project did not move forward at that that time, this agreement was not executed. As part of the original expansion, C&L had also requested to build an expansion of their office complex. As part of this request, the City would fund the construction cost, of approximately $2,305,000, and C&L would reimburse the City through lease payments. This project also did not move forward. C&L has since purchased a building and land (previously Spectacular Events Center) for purposes of expanding their aircraft interior shop. With this recent change, C&L requests not to move forward with the office expansion and is requesting to use the funds originally requested for this project towards the EDA grant project of expansion of maintenance shop space at the airport to accommodate a growing need for aircraft maintenance services. Through this new construction and development agreement, the total estimated expansion cost is $3,548,004. Funding for this project are the EDA grant funds of $1,243,004 and $2,305,000 in Airport funds which will be recouped through lease payments by C&L. In no event shall the City’s total financial obligation for the project exceed a maximum of $2,305,000. Airport Committee 04/27/2020 Recommend for passage Staff recommends approval.
