BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
Since December 21, 2017, under Lease Agreement No. 180217B, Yamaha Motor Corporation has leased approximately 1,907 sq. ft. of space within the northeast portion of 2000 Airport Road at the Napa County Airport, to store and maintain its RMAX agricultural remote-piloted spray helicopters. This lease expired on December 31, 2022. Prior to Yamaha's lease with the County, and beginning in April, 2016, Yamaha subleased the approximately 1,907 sq. ft. of space from the International Airline Training Academy (former Leasee of the Napa County Airport). A new Space License Agreement, to be effective January 1, 2023, is requested to continue the tenancy relationship with Yamaha Motor Corporation.
Yamaha staff approached the County with a desire to increase square footage by renting additional office spaces adjacent to their lease-hold, thereby growing their rented footprint to 2,500 sq. ft. In addition, they requested to stay in the facility as long as possible, understanding the current plan to relocate the General Aviation Terminal and Airport Administration Offices to the 2000 Airport Road facility. Airport staff request a month-to-month tenancy, with 90-day termination and relocation clauses, to ensure that pending plans to fully renovate the facility can move forward with appropriate coordination. Yamaha has agreed to these terms.
Staff requests Board approval of Space License Agreement No. 230273B with Yamaha Motor Corporation U.S.A. for 2,500 square feet of office and maintenance space at 2000 Airport Road.
