Ground Lease from John Ehret Dodge, Inc. dba B & B Rentals, Inc. to S. J.
Denham, Inc.
(C-070-100 & A-090-100)
Airports Director Ruff explained that the Hertz franchise has been operated
by John Ehret Dodge, Inc., dba B & B Rentals, Inc., at the Redding Municipal
Airport since 1986. The operation is under a Rent-A-Car Concession Agreement
at the terminal and a ground lease for their vehicle service center adjacent
to Airport Road. Chapter 11 bankruptcy action has caused the owners to
arrange to sell the Hertz franchise to S. J. Denham, Inc. Hertz Corporation
has verbally approved the sale. Final approval, however, is still required
from the U. S. Bankruptcy Court before franchise assets can be transferred.
It is the recommendation of staff that Council approve the Assignment of the
Redding Municipal Airport Rent-A-Car Concession Agreement and Permit and
Lease and Permit to S. J. Denham, Inc. The Director of Finance has reviewed
the balance sheet of S. J. Denham, Inc. and feels it has the financial
resources necessary to continue high quality service at the Airport.
MOTION: Made by Council Member Arness, seconded by Council Member Anderson,
that Resolution No. 93-28 be adopted, a resolution of the City Council of the
City of Redding approving and authorizing the Mayor to execute the Consent to
Assignment of the Redding Municipal Airport Rent-A-Car Concession Agreement
and Permit, and of the Lease and Permit, both as assumed from John Ehret
Dodge, Inc., doing business as B & B Rentals, Inc., to assignee S. J. Denham,
Inc.
