SUMMARY
During discussions with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) over the past several
weeks, relative to aviation practices, master plan logistics and funding opportunities for
future projects, it became imperative that the City of Sebastian be in full compliance with
FAA requirements as governed in the airport deed granted to the City in 1959. The City is
working towards full compliance, to promote a brighter future for the Sebastian Municipal
Airport. However, one issue of importance is lease agreements and respective annual fees.
Therefore, for your consideration, staff has prepared a lease agreement by and between the
City of Sebastian for use of land from the Sebastian Municipal Airport in the operation of
the Sebastian Municipal Golf Course.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Move to adopt Resolution R-00-48 authorizing the City Manager to execute the Lease
Agreement by and between the City of Sebastian for use of land from the Sebastian
Municipal Airport in the operation of the Sebastian Municipal Golf Course.
