Last year the Air National Guard decided it would like to expand the ARFF station. The expansion requires approximately .67 additional acres of land abutting the leased land. By Council Order 09-267 the City Council approved a lease of the additional .67 acres of land for a period of fifty years through 2059. The Air National Guard has requested that the lease of the additional .67 acres be for the same term as the lease for the ARRF station. This Order will amend the original lease for the ARFF by adding the additional land rather than have two leases. This has been reviewed and re commended for approval by the Airport Committee.

Hupp AIRPORT CC: Bob Farrar, Norm Heitmann Re: Request from the Air National Guard to Amend Land Lease Date: July 14, 2010 In July of 2009, the Maine Air National Guard requested to lease about 1/3 acre of Airport land adjacent to the Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting Facility (also leased from the City) so that they could expand their existing fire station. The Guard requested a no -cost lease for 50 year in order to be able to invest federal funds in the construction of the facility. The lease would terminate in 2059. The Council approved this request. The lease for the original portion of the Fire Fighting Facility terminates in 2085. After realizing this the Guard would like the new lease to also terminate in 2085 rather than 2059. Because the new lease was not signed by the Guard the more efficient way to accomplish this is to amend the original lease to increase the size of the leased premises. Staff recommends approval. I look forward to discussing this with you in greater detail. As always, please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or if you would like additional information. 11) 59 DEPARTMENT OF THE AIR FORCE BANGOR INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, MAINE Supplemental Agreement No. 5 Lease No. DACAS1-5-86-195 THIS AGREEMENT entered into this day of 2010.
