Ms. Cook provided the following updates:
Immokalee Regional Airport. The United States Department of Agriculture(USDA)grant
closing and USDA mandatory pre-construction for the Lake was held on September 4,2007 at
the USDA West Palm Beach office. Ms. Cook intends to formally terminate the sub-lease
agreement with C-Tech Manufacturing Florida LLC. The Site Development Plan for Salazar
Machine&Steel,Inc. is in process,and it is anticipated that the necessary funding will be in
place by the end of September,2007. Kishor Vaghela,Interstone Quarries,has expressed
interest in sub-leasing approximately fifteen(15)acres at the airport. Kishor Vaghela appears
viable,and expects to submit a business plan to the Authority within the next several weeks.
The Authority plans to go out to bid for commercial development. Collier County Risk
Management has requested proof of insurance for the racetrack because the aviation insurance
carrier for the airports has asked for it. The racetrack has$5 million of insurance per incident.
The Florida Army National Guard is leasing an office and warehouse space in close proximity
to the airport and needs between two(2)and five(5)acres for parking,preferably at the
airport. The National Guard will acquire all the necessary permits and build the parking lot.
Staff will prepare a draft sub-lease agreement for the National Guard for the October 8,2007
meeting. The Planned Unit Development application should be submitted by the end of
September,2007. Ms. Cook commended Mr.Kenney's performance as Airport Manager and
sited a couple of recent accolades received from recent visitors,including Mr.Monaghan's
staff. The final Master Plan meeting is scheduled for September 26,2007 at the Florida
Community Bank in Immokalee.
Marco Island Executive Airport. The runway extension design is complete. URS has
estimated that the runway extension will cost almost$1.3 million versus an in-house estimate
of approximately$1.5 million. The in-house estimate for the taxiway surcharge and
construction is approximately$6 million. The Authority and URS are meeting with the
Federal Aviation Administration and Florida Department of Transportation on September 26,
2007 to discuss funding for proposed capital improvement projects.
Everglades Airpark. URS provided a quote of approximately$50,000 to design the
reconstruction of the T-hangar building. The authority solicited a quote from Victor Latavish,
the architect that did the original design of the hangars. Victor Latavish submitted a proposal
in the amount of approximately$36,000 to evaluate and design the reconstruction of the T-
hangar building,with construction to be completed within 365 days.
