RE: CAA: Mutual Help List, Mutual Help List, boats and ground leases

["Moore, Jeff" <JMoore@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Rod, Don't set yourself up so that your tenants start bring in their boats and 
old furniture and start storing them in their hangars.  If you let one do it 
you have to let them all do it.  Look at the idea for renting it as office 
space to air couriers, charter service, flight school, use it for your own 
storage,  maybe the local flying club would rent it?  Ground fees are $.35 psf 
per month at our main airport.  Ground Leases for the GAs run $.25 t0 $.32 psf 
per year with all improvements reverting to County.

Hello all and a pre-emptive thanks....
We have a couple of end units on our T-Hangars (1/2 of a T) that someone
wants to rent out for boat/rv storage. Does anyone have input for me on this
as they will not hold an aircraft and I see it as lost revenue. Secondly,
can I please get some ideas on ground lease rates you charge at your
airport. And THANKS.... Rod

Subject: CAA: Mutual Help List, Cost Allocation


To all:

We're starting to review our costs and prepare for airline/rental car
negotiations next year.  I'm curious as to how you other small
(GA/non-hub/small) airports keep track of your costs and how you
allocate them to the users (especially the categories into which you
allocate them).  We use the compensatory methods of We use QuickBooks,
so it's not difficult for us to classify expenditures and allocate
them...I'm interested in how you specifically structure your accounts
and how you decide what expenditures go where (especially indirect
expenditures such as salaries, administrative overhead, etc).  I've
looked in the AAAE Information Library, there's some useful information
but it's rather dated (10+ years)...would be a good accreditation
management paper topic for someone who has an interest in that sort of
thing.
