Approve Georgia Power Company Easement to Georgia Air National Guard Property at Robert B. Miller Road. A new cell tower has been constructed on the railroad right-of-way east of Robert B. Miller Road. Electric power for the cell tower needs to come from a Georgia Power Company (GPC) power line on the Georgia Air National Guard (GaANG) leased property by the Commission. The routing of the new power line, which must be approved both by the GaANG and by the Commission, requires a 30’ construction, operations, and maintenance easement. The line will be run overhead on poles to be erected 3’ inside the Commission fence at the Robert B. Miller Road right-of-way. GPC will restore any ground, landscaping, and/or pavement disturbed, and will remove the power lines and restore the property at any time if so requested by the Commission and/or the GaANG, at which time the easement will expire. 10. Execute New Space Lease Agreement with FAA ~ MISO. The Manufacturing Inspection Satellite Office (MISO) unit of the FAA has been leasing 204 sf of space on Level 2 of the terminal building since December 2007. The Staff, however, now wishes to reclaim that leased space and has offered to relocate the MISO to 190.6 sf offices located in former airline ramp operations area on Level 1. The new lease agreement will be effective October 1, 2010 and will terminate September 30, 2015. The monthly lease for the new space will be $2,935.24 annual/$244.60 monthly. 11. Execute New Airline Lease & Operating Agreement with Continental Airlines. The five primary air carriers have each been provided with new Airline Lease and Operating Agreements that are based on a fixed rent rather than the previous calculations whereby signatory airlines held the power to control rental rate increases and airport improvements. Continental has now executed their agreement and is requesting Commission approval for a five-year term. Rental rates for terminal space will be $48.50 per square foot for calendar year 2010 and will increase incrementally over the five-year term period. 12. Execute Hangar Space Lease Agreement with Garrett Aviation Consulting Group, LLP. Garrett Aviation Consulting Group, LLP, has requested to lease the former Far Winds hangar located at 1227 Bob Harman Road. The lease will commence as of September 1, 2010, and will run for five years through August 31, 2015. The lease rate for the facility is $4 psf, which computes to $22,700 annually, $1,891.67 monthly. Garrett Aviation will also make other interior improvements to the building at their own expense, and will refinish or replace the deteriorating spray-on insulation in the hangar in return for a rent credit from the Commission upon completion.

The first show, opening September 11, will be titled “Arrivals and Departures” and will feature works of current members and past presidents of the Savannah Art Association, including Ray Ellis. Many of Savannah’s notable artists began their careers with the SAA and have become internationally known. The Association will coordinate four to five shows annually, handling the requests for artwork, art intake, show hanging and art sales, with the Commission retaining 1.5% of the proceeds from sales. Staff will work with SAA to offer one show per year to area secondary schools. A reception will be held September 11 from 1 until 7 P.M. with members of the SAA on site to welcome Airport visitors to view the show.
