Resolution 2011 -039 Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Revised Long-Term Airport Access Agreement and
Grant of Access Easement with Rocky Mountain Airport Investments , LLC and Related Intergovernmental Agreement
with One or More Metropolitan Districts at the Fort Collins-Loveland Municipal Airport.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
As part of the overall proposed agreement, the Developer has agreed , as specified in the Access Agreement and
Intergovernmental Agreement (" IGA") , both of which are attached to the proposed Resolution , to provide proceeds from
one or more Metropolitan Districts (5 mils ) to the Airport in exchange for the granting of an access easement to the
Airport for aviation related uses . An access easement on the Airport is granted to the Developer from the Developer' s
real property adjacent to the Airport .
This an updated agreement from the one approved by both the Loveland and Fort Collins City Councils in September
2008 . This update addresses concerns related to sequencing for platting the parcels and creation of the metropolitan
districts , and establishes a performance deadline of September 30 , 2012 for FAA approval of the access easement,
creation of the Metropolitan Districts as to both the north and south parcels , and required improvements to the south
parcel . The required improvements include infrastructure in both the proposed airpark and on the Airport to
accommodate the proposed access . The required improvements on the north parcel must be completed by September
30 , 2019 .
The new agreement is now 50 years , with no 30-year extension as contemplated in the original agreement. The 30-
year extension was based on construction of an on-airport Fixed Based Operator ( FBO) business , no such investment
is planned at this time , so the 30-year extension option is not included in this agreement.
BACKGROUND / DISCUSSION
Beginning in 2007 , City staff from Fort Collins and Loveland worked on a proposal by the Developer to develop an
airpark located to the southeast and north of Airport ("the Airpark") , to access the Airport for limited aeronautical
purposes through-the-fence . The Developer owns 200 acres adjacent to the Fort Collins — Loveland Municipal Airport
(Airport) . The property is divided into two parcels ; one is identified as the north parcel and the other is the southeast
parcel .
The Access Agreement grants a 50 year Airport access easement to permit the lot owners in the Airpark to access
the Airport from their property for limited aeronautical uses which are defined in detail in the Access Agreement. The
granting of such an easement is subject to FAA approval .
In return for the access easement, the Developer will create one or more metropolitan districts that include the Airpark
properties , and will commit 5 mills of property taxes to the Airport in exchange for access ("the Metro Districts" ) . The
payment from the Metro Districts satisfies the Airpark's need to pay an access fee to the Airport. This revenue
projection for the first ten years of the Metro Districts payments beginning in 2012 equals $2 .4 million . Any revenue
generated by the Airport is restricted to Airport uses and cannot be returned to the owner cities per FAA regulations .
The proposed Access Agreement provides significant benefits to the Airport and Cities by furthering the goal of
increasing revenue to the Airport to eliminate the general subsidy that the Cities provide . This is one of the most
significant goals outlined by the Airport Steering Committee and City Councils in the Airport's Adopted Business Plan .
There are two kinds of development that generally impact airports , development that takes place on the Airport
property (or within the fence ) , and development that happens adjacent to the Airport that accesses the Airport through
a fence . The Airport is a significant community asset that has been largely funded through Federal funds coming from
the Federal Aviation Administration ( FAA) . There are advantages and disadvantages to either development on Airport
April 19 , 2011 -2- ITEM 29
or adjacent. On-Airport development takes place on publically owned land and improvements ( i . e . a hanger) ultimately
revert back to the Airport once the long-term lease is completed . The on-Airport lease rate ensures that the user is
paying their fair share for accessing the Airport and its benefits .
Off-Airport developments that literally access the Airport "through the fence" (TTF ) also have to pay for the privilege
of accessing a public facility. The TTF payments to access the Airport typically take the form of an access fee . The
fee to be paid to the Airport from an off-site user has to equal what the on-Airport user pays ; this is called "parity" .
The core issue in negotiating the Access Agreement and IGA with the Developer has been working to achieve parity.
This is done through the formation of the Metro Districts that will pay for the Airpark' s access fees . Properties within
the Metro Districts will contribute 5 mills to the Airport as their fee . Periodically, the Airpark and Airport will evaluate
the sufficiency of the 5 mills to ensure that parity is being maintained as the Airport increases its on-Airport lease rates
and as the Airpark builds out .
FINANCIAL / ECONOMIC IMPACTS
The Developer will form one or more Metro Districts with a 5 mill rate that will generate property tax revenue for the
Airport in exchange for paying an Airport access fee . It is assumed that the Metro Districts will be in place by the
beginning of 2012 and will begin making payments in the year after it is formed . The Developer has an aggressive
build-out plan for the Airpark that has been shared with City staff. City staff is more comfortable projecting a slower
build out rate for the project to ensure that financial projections to the Airport are not overestimated .
Staff projects that in 2012 , the Airpark project will contribute $56 , 000 in revenue to the Airport, growing to over
$400 , 000 by 2020 . This assumes that approximately 1 . 5 million square feet are developed over this time period , or
around 150 , 000 sq feet per year. Staff believes this is a reasonable build-out schedule . Should the Developer
successfully built out the project faster, the Airport would receive additional revenue growth from the growth in
assessed valuation and taxable property .
• Major Provisions of the Access Agreement and IGA
Term of the Access Agreement
The Access Agreement and the access easement granted in the Access Agreement will terminate fifty (50 ) years after
the effective date of the IGA.
Use of Metro Districts
The Developer intends to establish and record certain covenants , conditions and restrictions against the real property
that makes up the Airpark. The Developer intends to establish one or more Metro Districts (" Districts") which shall , in
part, manage the common areas of the Airpark and enforce the Airpark Covenants , Conditions and Restrictions
(CC& R's) .
Access to the Airport is contingent upon the Cities' prior execution of the IGAs with the Districts for aircraft access and
use of the Airport from the Airpark under the terms and conditions stated in the Access Agreement. Prior to approval
of the IGA, the following conditions must be met:
• The Airpark is under actual construction .
• The construction and improvement of taxilanes connecting the Airpark and the Airport and the taxiway on the
Airport are completed and acceptable to the Cities .
• The District(s ) are established in good standing and capable of imposing the 5 . 0 mill levy on the Adjacent
Property together with any required adjustments thereto , and further capable of paying the Fee to the Cities
and to pay the Cities any additional amount required in the IGA. The District(s ) shall also be required to have
full voter authorization to increase the mill levy on the Adjacent Property, without the requirement of any future
election , in order to provide any increases in revenue to the Cities as necessary to maintain compliance with
the Cities' FAA grant assurances .
• The Developer grants the Cities an access easement on the Airpark taxilane for emergency vehicles , FBO
vehicles , maintenance/safety inspections , etc.
April 19 , 2011 -3- ITEM 29
• The Airparks CC&R3s are recorded and in effect against the Airpark.
• The construction of the Airport Taxiway is completed and deemed acceptable by the Cities .
The Metro District for the entirety of the Adjacent Property ( north and south parcels ) must be formed and the other
conditions met as to the south parcel on or before September 30 , 2012 or the Agreement and the Access Easement
as to both parcels terminates . If this deadline is met, the other conditions must be met as to the north parcel by
September 30 , 2019 or the Agreement and the Access Easement as to the north parcel terminates .
Payment of Airport Access Fees
In consideration of gaining access to the Airport's facilities , an access fee will be paid to the Cities as follows :
• The Metro Districts will enter into an IGA with the Cities .
• The Districts will pay to the Cities , subject to annual adjustments , an amount equal to 5 . 0 mills (" Fee")based
on the assessed value of all taxable real property and improvements , (excluding personal property) within the
Adjacent Property.
• The Fee is intended , with annual adjustments , to provide the Airport with a source of revenue which is equal
to , or greater than , the revenue that would otherwise be provided if the Airpark were developed upon Airport
property . In addition , the Fee is intended to ensure that the lot owners within the Airpark pay fees and charges
to the Cities that are at parity with those paid to the Cities by their on-Airport tenants .
• The Cities shall have the ability to close access to the Airport from the Airpark through the point of
ingress/egress in the event of nonpayment of the Fees due from the District(s ) .
Termination of the Access Agreement
The Access Agreement can be terminated for the following reasons :
• If the Metro Districts for the entirety of the Adjacent Property ( north and south parcels ) are not formed and the
other conditions are not met as to the south parcel on or before September 30 , 2012 , the Agreement and the
Access Easement terminates as to both parcels .
• If the conditions , other than creation of the Metro Districts , are not met as to the north parcel by September
30 , 2019 , the Agreement and the Access Easement terminates as to the north parcel only.
• The Developer provides written notice of termination to the Cities .
• The Developer does not make payments required under the terms of the Access Agreement and under any
IGA.
Litigation Expenses and Attorney's Fees
In the event of the default of any of the provisions of the Access Agreement or the IGA by any party, as determined
by a court, the defaulting party shall be liable to the non-defaulting party for the non-defaulting party's reasonable costs
of litigation incurred by reason of the default, including reasonable attorneys' fees .
Most Commercial Aeronautical Services are NOT permitted within the Adjacent Airport Property
• Uses not allowed are those which are normally provided by the on-Airport FBO(s) . The uses not allowed
include : aircraft line services ; aircraft, airframe and engine repair and maintenance ; flight training ; aircraft
rental ; storage of aviation fuels and related other services such as the sale of air charts and miscellaneous
pilots' supplies .
Commercial Aeronautical uses that are allowed include the following :
• The construction of hangars/buildings that are used for the storage , servicing and maintenance of aircraft that
are used for private corporate or personal use ; aircraft research and development; aircraft manufacturing of
parts and components ; assembly of aircraft parts and components ; final assembly of aircraft parts and
components into completed aircraft; flighttesting associated with assembled aircraft; painting of manufactured
aircraft and parts ; and airfreight services .
• The Developer may not enter into a contract that prohibits any on-Airport FBO from selling fuel to tenants of
the Airpark.
April 19 , 2011 4- ITEM 29
• The Developer shall grant to the Cities an Avigation Easement which grants users of the Airport the right to
fly over the Airpark property and make noise , vibrations and emissions associated with aircraft and the
Airport' s other activities .
Obligations of Developer
• Taxilane construction — the Developer is responsible for constructing and paying forthe taxilane improvements
that will connect the Airpark site with the Airport property.
• Taxiway construction - the Developer is responsible for constructing an paying for the taxiway improvements
that will extend the on-airport taxiway to the off-airport taxiways .
• Security plan — the Developer must ensure there is an Airpark security plan in place that is in full compliance
with Transportation Security Administration and FAA rules and regulations .
• Avigation easement on their property — the Developer shall grant the cities an Avigation Easement to ensure
that Airport operations adjacent and around the Airpark properties are not compromised .
• Non-compromise of FNL activities — the Developer agrees that nothing in the Access Agreement or IGA will
impact ongoing Airport operations or implementation of long-term plans .
• Minimum Standards Compliance — the Developer agrees to abide by the Airport Minimum Standards within
the Airpark property as they currently exist or may be amended by the Cities in the future .
• Grant assurances — In the event that the FAA notifies the Cities verbally or in writing of an alleged violation
of its grant assurances to the FAA as a result of the Access Agreement, or as a result of the action or inaction
of any off-Airport uses , the Developer shall fully cooperate with the Cities to immediately rectify such violation .
In the event that the FAA notifies the Cities formally of such a violation , such as , but not limited to , notification
by a Director's Determination , the Cities may, in their sole discretion and without being required to appeal any
such FAA determination , terminate this Agreement and any access to the Airport granted pursuant to this
Agreement . However, if the FAA grants to the Cities a period of time to cure the violation , the Cities agree ,
prior to such termination , to allow the Developer that period of time to cure the circumstances causing the
grant assurance violation .
FAA Commentary
Throughout the past 36 months , the FAA has been consulted by the Cities on numerous occasions , including in
meeting with local leaders and the Colorado Congressional delegation . The FAA does not offer an opinion on through-
the-fence agreements , they only offer advisement. Staff and the Developer have worked to address all the issues
raised by FAA, including language on grant assurances , relief of issues , parity between on and off Airport uses , and
security provisions .
In the event a party on the Airport feels discriminated against by the uses off the Airport, there is a formal FAA process ,
known as a Part 16 complaint, which would be heard within the FAA process to determine if such complaint has merit.

EXHIBIT A
CITIES OF LOVELAND AND FORT COLLINS
AIRPORT ACCESS AGREEMENT
THIS FORT COLLINSILOVELAND AIRPORT ACCESS AGREEMENT (the
"Agreement") is made and entered into this day of
2011, between and among Rocky Mountain Airport Investments, LLC, a Colorado limited
liability company ("Developer") and the Cities of Fort Collins and Loveland, Colorado
home rule municipalities, hereinafter jointly the "Cities."
RECITALS
A. Cities operate a municipal airport within the City of Loveland in Larimer County,
Colorado, known as the Fort Collins/Loveland Municipal Airport(the "Airport"), which is
legally described in EXHIBIT "A" attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference,
and further described in the Intergovernmental Agreement between the Cities of Fort
Collins and Loveland, Colorado, dated May 16, 2000.
B. Developer is the owner and developer of certain parcels of real property which are
immediately adjacent to the Airport(the "Adjacent Property") referred to generally as the
"north" parcel or the "southeast" parcel. Developer desires to develop portions of the
Adjacent Property as an airpark which will be comprised of all the platted lots within the
Adjacent Property that border and that have, or are capable of having, aircraft access to the
Airport from said individual lots ("the Airpark"). The Adjacent Property, including those
parcels generally identified as the "north"parcel and"southeast" parcel, is more particularly
identified in the legal description attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference as
EXHIBIT "B."
C. Developer intends to establish and record certain covenants, conditions and restrictions
(the "Airpark CC&R's") against the real property that makes up the Airpark. Developer
intends to establish one or more Metropolitan Districts, hereinafter referred to collectively
as "Districts", which shall, in part, manage the common areas of the Airpark and enforce
the Airpark CC&R's.
D. Developer desires to have the Cities allow Developer and his successors and assigns, the
individual lot owners within the Airpark("the Lot Owners"), and the Lot Owners' tenants,
subtenants, guests and invitees within the Airpark to access the Airport from the Airpark and
to access the Airpark from the Airport, subject to the Airpark CC&R's.
E. In consideration for the access to the Airport from the Airpark, the Developer desires for
the Cities to enter into intergovernmental agreements with the Districts under which the
Districts shall, subject to annual adjustment, pay annually to the Cities an amount equal to
5.000 mills based on the assessed value of all taxable real property and improvements
(excluding personal property) within the Adjacent Property. The parties hereto acknowledge
that this five mill fee(the "Fee") with annual adjustments, is intended to provide the Airport
with a source of revenue which is equal to, or greater than, the revenue that would otherwise
be provided if the Airpark were developed upon Airport property. In addition, the Fee is
1
intended to ensure that the Lot Owner pays fees and charges to the Cities that are at parity
with those paid to the Cities by their on-Airport tenants.
F. In the event that the organization of the Districts does not take place as contemplated in
this Agreement or the Districts otherwise fail to comply, in any way whatsoever, with the
terms of Paragraph 1.6 of this Agreement, the Developer agrees to pay annually to the Cities
an amount equal to the Fee until such time as the Districts come into full compliance with
Paragraph 1.6 of this Agreement.
G. Cities are willing to enter into such intergovernmental agreements provided that all of the
terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement are fully satisfied.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing Recitals and the mutual
promises and agreement set forth herein, the parties agree as follows:
AGREEMENT
1. Cities' Grant of Access Easement. Developer presently owns two parcels of land that
may be developed at different times and that may comprise the Airpark. Cities and the Developer
agree that the Developer and his successors and assigns, the Lot Owners, and the Lot Owners'
tenants, subtenants, guests and invitees within the Airpark, shall have, and Cities hereby grant unto
Developer, an aircraft access easement to the Airport through the designated Point of Ingress/Egress
(defined in Paragraph 3.1 below) for the term hereinafter set forth in Paragraph 11 below (the
"Access Easement."). The Access Easement granted by this Agreement shall be further set forth in
an easement deed to be recorded after the conditions of this Paragraph 1 and its sub-paragraphs have
been satisfied as set forth herein. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement and to the Airpark
CC&R's against the property that makes up the Airpark, the Access Easement to the Airport granted
herein includes permission to use the airside and public area of the Airport for the purposes stated in
Paragraph 3.1 below, and includes both permission to enter upon the Airport from the Airpark and to
exit from the Airport to the Airpark. The grant of the Access Easement made herein is contingent
upon(i) the execution of intergovernmental agreement(s) with the Districts for aircraft access and
use of the Airport from the Airpark under the terms and conditions stated in this Agreement, which
said intergovernmental agreements shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as EXHIBIT
"C"(the "IGA'') or(ii) compliance by the Developer with the covenant to pay the Fee as set forth in
Paragraph 1.6(b)below,provided that all of the following conditions precedent(the "Conditions")
have been fully satisfied prior to execution of the IGA:
1.1 The City of Loveland has approved, in its sole discretion,plats for the north and/or
southeast parcels of the Adjacent Property sufficient to allow the construction related
activities described in this Paragraph 1 to be completed.

when it is determined to be in the best interest of the Cities to do so, or when such controls and
restrictions have been requested by the FAA or Transportation Security Administration ("TSA") or
any other federal, state, or local agency. Restrictions may include, the denial, from time to time, of
ingress or egress by any person or persons where the Airport Director determines, in good faith, that
conditions at the Airport or Airpark are such that ingress or egress poses an immediate threat to the
safe and efficient operation of the Airport, creates an aviation safety hazard on either the Airport or

designations shall not prevent access between the Airport and the Airpark through the Point of
Ingress/Egress. The designation of additional points of access at locations outside of the Airpark

terminated by the Cities in the event of such noncompliance with TSA and FAA rules, regulations or
dictates, or in the event of noncompliance with the Airport Security Plan or Airport Rules and
Regulations. Prior to execution of any IGA with a District the Developer shall submit and obtain

the Adjacent Property shall be contingent upon full compliance with the Airport Minimum Standards
for the Airport dated September 26, 2008, a copy of which is attached hereto and incorporated herein
by this reference as EXHIBIT "F," and as they may be amended in the future by public action of the
City Councils of each City or as set forth in the Airport Intergovernmental Agreement between the

Cities agree that under this Agreement that the Developer satisfies the financial surety requirements
of Section 1.7.4 of the Minimum Standards. In addition, the Parties agree that if any provision of the
Minimum Standards is in conflict with a provision of this Agreement, the provisions of the Minimum
Standards shall control over the conflicting provision in this Agreement as applied to commercial
aeronautical uses on the Adjacent Property unless this Agreement expressly provides that the
provision of this Agreement shall control over the conflicting provision of the Minimum Standards.
19. Compliance with Grant Assurances. In the event that the FAA notifies the Cities verbally
or in writing of an alleged violation of its grant assurances to the FAA as a result of this Agreement,
or as a result of the action or inaction of any off-airport uses, the Developer shall fully cooperate with
the Cities to immediately rectify such violation. In the event that the FAA notifies the Cities formally
of such a violation, such as but not limited to notification by a Director's Determination, the Cities
may, in their sole discretion, and without being required to appeal any such FAA determination,
terminate this Agreement and any access to the Airport granted pursuant to this Agreement.
However, if the FAA grants to the Cities a period of time to cure the violation, the Cities agree,prior
to such termination, to allow the Developer that period of time to cure to the satisfaction of the Cities
the circumstances causing the grant assurance violation.
20. Preservation of public health, safety and welfare.Nothing herein shall be construed as a
waiver of the Cities' police power to protect the public health, safety and welfare. Accordingly,
notwithstanding any conflicting provision herein, the Cities may terminate this Agreement and any
access to the Airport granted pursuant to this Agreement as needed to protect the public health, safety
and welfare or as required by a federal, state or local agency, providing in the case of termination, the
Developer is given the rights to cure set forth in Paragraph 19 of this Agreement. Temporary
termination of access may occur without an opportunity to cure in emergency situations as
determined by the Airport Director. If the Airport Director temporarily terminates access due to an
emergency situation,the Airport Director shall provide the Developer with a written explanation of
the reasons for the closure and an estimated opening date.

AIRPORT ACCESS
INTERGOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT
THIS AGREEMENT is entered into this day of , 2011, by and between
a Colorado Metropolitan District, hereinafter called "District", and the Cities of
Fort Collins and Loveland, Colorado, home rule municipalities,jointly hereinafter called
"Cities".
RECITALS:

County, Colorado, known as the Fort Collins/Loveland Municipal Airport (the "Airport"), which
is legally described in EXHIBIT "A" attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference, and
further described in the Intergovernmental Agreement between the Cities of Fort Collins and
Loveland, Colorado dated May 16, 2000.
WHEREAS, certain real property which is immediately adjacent to the Airport(the
"Adjacent Property"), referred to generally as the "north" parcel or the "southeast"parcel, is
being developed into an airpark which will be comprised of all the platted lots within the
Adjacent Property that border and have, or are capable of having, aircraft access to the Airport
from said individual lots ("the Airpark"). The Adjacent Property, including those parcels
generally identified as the "north" parcel and the "southeast' parcel, is more particularly
identified in the legal description attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference as
EXHIBIT "B".

established by Developer, allowing the Developer and his successors and assigns, the owners of
individual lots in the Airpark ("Lot Owners"), and the Lot Owners' tenants, subtenants, guests
and invitees within the Airpark, to access the Airport from the Airpark and to access the Airpark

the District shall, subject to annual adjustment,pay a fee annually to the Cities in an amount
equal to 5.000 mills based on the assessed value of all real property and improvements within the
Adjacent Property(the "Fee"). The parties hereto acknowledge that the Fee is intended to provide
the Airport with a source of revenue which is equal to, or greater than, the revenue that would
otherwise be provided if the Airpark were developed upon Airport property and to ensure that the
Lot Owners pay fees and charges to the Cities that are at parity with those paid to the Cities by
their on-Airport tenants.
WHEREAS, District is a Metropolitan District organized and in good standing under the
laws of the state of Colorado and has authority to enforce the Airpark CC&R's, which are
recorded with the Larimer County Recorder at

AGREEMENT
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing recitals and the mutual
promises contained herein, the parties agree as follows:
1. Definitions.
1.1. Except as provided in Subparagraph 1.2 below or as expressly defined
elsewhere in this Intergovernmental Agreement, the terms,phrases, words and their derivatives
used in this Intergovernmental Agreement shall have the meanings given in the Fort
Collins/Loveland Municipal Airport Rules and Regulations as adopted by the Fort Collins and
Loveland City Councils and any subsequent amendments thereto (the "Airport Rules and
Regulations").
1.2. The terms "based" and "based location" have the same meaning as
indicated in the definitions section of the Airport Rules and Regulations, except that any
reference to "airport" or"the Airport" contained in such definitions will also mean the Airpark
and aircraft that, by definition, is based at the Airpark shall be deemed to be based at the Fort
Collins/Loveland Municipal Airport while this Intergovernmental Agreement is in effect. The
terms "Airport Director", "City Manager" and "City Clerk", as used herein, denote those certain
officials of the Cities and any designee of each such official.
1.3. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a conflict between this
Intergovernmental Agreement and the Airport Rules and Regulations, and other documents that
apply to on-airport tenants, then, for grant assurance purposes, the Airport Rules and
Regulations, and other documents that apply to on-airport tenants shall control and govern.
2
2. Grant of Access.
2.1. Cities and the District agree that the District, the Developer and his
successors and assigns, the Lot Owners, and the Lot Owners' tenants, subtenants, guests and
invitees within the Airpark, shall have, and Cities hereby grant unto Developer, aircraft access to
the Airport from the Airpark through the designated Point of Ingress/Egress (defined in
Paragraph 3.1 of the Access Agreement) (the "Access Easement") as provided in and in
accordance with the terms and conditions of the Access Agreement, and the Airpark CC&R's
against the property that makes up the Airpark. The grant of the Access Easement made in the
Access Agreement is contingent upon the prior execution of this Agreement with the District for
aircraft access and use of the Airport from the Airpark under the terms and conditions stated in
the Access Agreement. All of the other conditions outlined in Paragraph 1 of the Access
Agreement, and its sub-paragraphs, have been fully satisfied prior to execution of this
Agreement.
3. Compensation.
3.1. The Cities shall be compensated jointly by the District's payment to the City
of Loveland or to such other entity as may be designated by the Cities an amount equal to 5.000
mills based on the assessed value of all taxable real property and improvements (excluding
personal property) within the Adjacent Property. The parties hereto acknowledge that this five
mill fee (the "Fee") with annual and other adjustments set forth herein, is intended to provide the
Airport with a source of revenue which is equal to, or greater than, the revenue that would
otherwise be provided if the Airpark were developed upon Airport property. In addition, the Fee
is intended to ensure that the Lot Owners pay fees and charges to the Cities that are at parity with
those paid to the Cities by their on-Airport tenants. Such funds shall be deposited into the
Airport Fund and shall be used solely for Airport purposes. The mill levy shall be collected
through the Larimer County Treasurer's office, which office shall forward payment to the
District. The District shall then make payment of the Fee to the City of Loveland within 10
business days of receipt of any such payment from the Latimer County Treasurer's office. The
District has full voter authorization under Article X, Section 20 of the Colorado Constitution
("TABOR") to increase the mill levy on the Adjacent Property, without the requirement of any
future election, in order to provide any increases in revenue to the Cities as necessary to maintain
compliance with the Cities' grant assurances to the Federal Aviation Administration ("FAA")
and to enter into this Agreement as a fully enforceable multi-fiscal year financial obligation
under TABOR.
3.2. The amount of the Fee may be adjusted at the written request of either the
Cities or the District after each calendar year of the term of this Intergovernmental Agreement
providing the party requesting the adjustment makes the request in writing within 120 days after
the end of such calendar year. The Fee amount may also be adjusted at any time by the Cities
upon written notice from the FAA stating that such adjustment is necessary to ensure continued
grant assurances compliance. The adjusted Fee shall be based upon an evaluation of the amount
of developed square footage of land within the Adjacent Property. Specifically, the square
footage of land within the Adjacent Property shall be assigned a revenue amount that is equal to
the ground lease rate the development would pay to the Cities if the development had been
3
located on Airport property. The Cities' then existing rental rate, including any adjustments for
inflation, for unimproved land shall be used for this calculation. If this revenue amount is lower
than the revenue that would otherwise be provided to the Cities if located on Airport property,
the Fee amount shall be increased accordingly. In this event, the District shall be responsible for
providing the additional Fee revenue source to the Cities without regard to approval of an
increase in the mill levy assessed on the Adjacent Property. If the revenue amount is higher than
the revenue that would otherwise be provided to the Cities if located on Airport property, the Fee
amount shall be decreased accordingly. The adjustment is intended to ensure that the Fee amount
provides the Airport with a source of revenue which is not less than the revenue that would
otherwise be provided if the Airpark were developed upon Airport property and to ensure that the
Lot Owners pay fees and charges to the Cities that are at parity with the fees and charges paid to
the Cities by their on-Airport tenants. In calculating this comparison revenue, the Cities'
"unimproved land" shall be deemed to be those lease properties for which the Cities did not build
and provide site infrastructure to serve the leased land, such as utilities, taxiways and streets, but
rather such infrastructure was constructed by the Cities' lessee.
3.3. Notwithstanding the provisions of Paragraph 3.2 above, if for any reason in

Airport from any portion of the Adjacent Property shall be contingent upon full compliance with
any Transportation Security Administration ("TSA") and FAA rules, regulations or dictates on
Airport security, and upon compliance with the Airport Security Plan, as they currently exist, or
as they may be amended in the future. Accordingly, notwithstanding any conflicting provision
herein, Airport access from the Adjacent Property shall be terminated by the Cities in the event
of such noncompliance with TSA and FAA rules, regulations or dictates, or in the event of
noncompliance with the Airport Security Plan or Airport Rules and Regulations. Prior to
execution of this Intergovernmental Agreement the District shall submit and obtain approval by
the Cities, TSA and FAA a detailed Airpark Security Plan describing procedures, equipment and
methodology to ensure operational compliance with the Airport's Security Plan and TSA
regulations. The Airpark Security Plan shall provide that it will be modified as necessary in the
future to maintain full compliance with any new or amended TSA regulations. The cost of
compliance with this Paragraph 10., including any required construction, maintenance, repairs
and modifications, shall be the joint and severable obligation of the Developer, as provided in
Paragraph 17. of the Access Agreement, and of the District. Unless specifically required by law
and notwithstanding the foregoing, such compliance shall not be more restrictive than required
elsewhere in the Airport under similar conditions and circumstances.
11. Non-liability.
11.1. Cities shall not be liable to the District or to any off-airport user for any acts
or omissions of any person, whether or not a person authorized under this Intergovernmental
6
Agreement, who enters the Airpark through the Point of Ingress/Egress-, or for any conditions
occurring on the Airpark or the Adjacent Property resulting from the operations or activities of
any such person; or for any loss or damage to any personal property or equipment of the District,
or any property owner or any tenant, subtenant, guest, invitee or other person with legal
possession of any lot within the Airpark or the Adjacent Property, caused by or resulting from
operations or activities of any person entering the Airpark through the Point of Ingress/Egress.
11.2. To the extent allowed bylaw the District, its successors and assigns, shall
be liable to Cities for their respective acts or omissions arising under this Intergovernmental
Agreement as a result of entering on to the Airport through the Point of Ingress/Egress; or for any
conditions occurring on the Airport resulting from their respective operations or activities; or for
any loss or damage to any personal property or equipment of the Cities caused by or resulting
from their operations or activities related to entering the Airport through the Point of
Ingress/Egress.
11.3. Nothing within this Intergovernmental Agreement shall in any way or
manner waive any defenses or limitations on damages provided for, under or pursuant to the
Colorado Governmental Immunity Act(Sec. 24-10-101, et seq. C.R.S.), the Constitution, or the
Charter, or under the common law or the laws of the State of Colorado, or of the United States,
including but not limited to Section 42 U.S.C.1983.

Airport to any person that is otherwise authorized to access and use the Airport pursuant to this
Intergovernmental Agreement who is in violation hereof or who violates Airport Rules and
Regulations and is advised thereof but refuses to comply with such Rules and Regulations;
provided, however, that such denial of access and use does not unreasonably impair the ability of
the Districts to pay their indebtedness. Any person denied access and use of the Airport shall be
given a reasonable opportunity to correct such action as gives rise to such denial of access and
use. In addition, in the event the Airport Director denies access to any individual or entity, the
District agrees to cooperate with the Airport Director and to take action to prevent such access by
that individual or entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any person may be denied access to and
use of the Airport, with or without the opportunity to correct a violation, if required by any FAA
or TSA rule, regulation or determination or if necessary or appropriate to comply with the Cities'
federal grant assurances, regardless of the impact of such a denial on the ability of the District to
pay its indebtedness.
13. Notices. Unless otherwise expressly stated, all notices required or permitted to be
given by either Cities or District shall be in writing and may be given in person or by United
States mail or by delivery service. Any notice directed by Cities to District or by District to
Cities shall become effective upon the earliest of the following: (i) actual receipt by the Cities or

verbally or in writing of an alleged violation of its grant assurances to the FAA as a result of this
Agreement, or as a result of the action or inaction of any off-airport uses, the District shall fully

the Cities formally of such a violation, such as but not limited to notification by a Director's
Determination, the Cities may, in their sole discretion and without being required to appeal any
such FAA determination, terminate this Agreement and any access to the Airport granted
pursuant to this Agreement. However, if the FAA grants to the Cities a period of time to cure the
violation, the Cities agree,prior to such termination, to allow the District that period of time to
cure the circumstances causing the grant assurance violation.

Agreement and any access to the Airport granted pursuant to this Agreement as needed to protect
the public health, safety and welfare or as required by a federal, state or local agency,providing
in the case of termination, the District is given the rights to cure set forth in Paragraph 17 of this

provide the District(s) with a written explanation of the reasons for the closure and an estimated
opening date.

Developer's financial obligations under the Access Agreement to the Cities, the District shall be
considered a successor in interest to the Developer and the District shall be jointly and severally
liable to the Cities for such obligations if for any reason the Developer cannot meet or satisfy its

AVIGATION EASEMENT
WHEREAS,
(hereinafter called the "Grantor'), is the owner in fee of that certain parcel of land situated
in the County of Larimer, State of Colorado, more particularly described and depicted on
Exhibit"A" attached hereto, herein called ("Grantor's Property");
WHEREAS, the CITY OF FORT COLLINS, COLORADO, a municipal
corporation, and the CITY OF LOVELAND, COLORADO, a municipal corporation,
hereinafter jointly called the "Grantees', are owners of the FORT COLLINS-
LOVELAND MUNICIPAL AIRPORT, the legal description of which is set forth on
Exhibit"B" attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference (the "Airport").
NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the sum of Ten Dollars ($10.00) and
other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby
acknowledged, the Grantor, for itself, its heirs, administrators, executors, successors and
assigns, does hereby grant, bargain, sell, and convey unto the Grantees, their successors
and assigns for the use and benefit of the public, as easement and right-of-way, appurtenant
to the Airport for the unobstructed use and passage of all Aircraft (as hereinafter defined)
in and through the airspace above Grantor's Property beginning at a height consistent with
the Airspace Plan described in the Fort Collins-Loveland Municipal Airport Master Plan
Update adopted in 2006 (the "Airport Master Plan"), and as further defined by FAA
Regulation, Part 77 and as depicted on Exhibit "C" attached hereto and incorporated
herein by reference.
Said easement and right-of-way shall be appurtenant to the Airport and for the
benefit of the Grantees and their successors and assigns, guests, and invitees, including any
and all persons, firms or corporations operating Aircraft to or from the Airport.
Said easement and burden shall include all things which may be alleged to be
incident to or resulting from the use and enjoyment of said easement, including, but not
limited to the right to cause in all air space above or in the vicinity of the surface of
Grantor's Property such noise, vibrations, fume, deposits of dust or other particulate
matter, fuel particles (which are incidental to the normal operation of said Aircraft), fear,
interference with sleep and communication and any and all other effects that may be
alleged to be incident to or caused by the operation of Aircraft over or in the vicinity of
Grantor's Property or in landing at or taking off from, or operation at or on the Airport,
and Grantor does hereby fully waive, remise, and release any right or cause of action
which it may now have or which it may have in the future against Grantees, their successor
and assigns, due to such noise vibrations, fumes, dust, fuel particles and all other effects
that may be caused or may have been caused by the usual and customary operation of
Aircraft landing at, or taking off from, or operating at or on the Airport, or by Aircraft
landing at, taking off from or operating on the Airport as part of an airshow conducted as a
special event authorized by Grantees provided that, in connection with any such airshow,
the Grantees have developed and implemented a traffic control plan so as to avoid a
1
material disruption to uses in place on the Grantor's Property, and provided further that no
acrobatic flights involved in such an airshow shall operate within the airspace over the
Grantor's Property unless the owner thereof or said owner's agent, consents to such
aerobatic flights, which consent may be withheld in said owner's sole discretion. For
purposes of this Avigation Easement, "aerobatic flight" means an intentional maneuver
involving an abrupt change in an aircraft's attitude, an abnormal attitude, or abnormal
acceleration, not necessary for normal flight.
The easement and right-of-way hereby granted includes the continuing right in the
Grantees to prevent the erection or growth upon Grantor's Property of any building,
structure, tree, or other object within the air space easement granted hereby, and to remove
from said air space, or at the sole option of the Grantees, as an alternative, to mark and
light as obstructions to air navigation, any such building, structure, tree or other objects on
upon, or which in the future may be upon Grantor's Property, together with the right of
ingress to, egress from, and passage over Grantor's Property for the above purpose.
The provisions of said easement shall apply to the following:
(1) The current Airport facilities and the present operation of the
Airport therein; and
(2) Any expansion of, or change to, the Airport facilities or operation of
the Airport therein which is consistent and in accordance with the
City of Loveland 2005 Comprehensive Plan, as amended as of the
date of this Avigation Easement(the "Comprehensive Plan") and the
Airport Master Plan. "Comprehensive Plan" and "Airport Master
Plan" as used herein shall specifically not include any amendments
thereto adopted by the City after the date of this Avigation
Easement.
As used herein, and to the extent consistent with the Airport Master Plan, the term
"Aircraft" shall mean any and all types of aircraft, whether now in existence or hereafter
manufactured and developed, to include, but not be limited to,jet aircraft, propeller driven
aircraft, civil aircraft, military aircraft, commercial aircraft, helicopters and all types of
aircraft or vehicles now in existence or hereinafter developed, regardless of existing or
future noise levels, for the purpose of transporting persons or property through the air, by
whomsoever owned or operated.
TO HAVE AND TO HOLD said easement and right-of-way, and all rights
appertaining thereto unto the Grantees, their successors and assigns, until said Airport shall
be abandoned or shall cease to be used for public airport purposes, at which time the
easement and right-of-way hereby granted shall automatically revert to Grantor, its
successors and assigns.
AND for the consideration hereinabove set forth, the Grantor, for itself, its heirs,
administrators, executors, successors, and assigns, does hereby further agree that that the

Airport Land Use Schedule set forth in Section 4.6 of the
Comprehensive Plan, a copy of which Table is attached hereto as
Exhibit"D" and incorporated herein by reference.
(b) No building, structure, tree or other object shall extend into
restricted air space as defined by FAA Regulation, Part 77, and the
Grantee shall comply with all applicable notice requirements of such
FAA Regulation.
(c) No exterior lighting, reflective material, smoke emissions or
electronic emissions shall be permitted within the property which
would materially lower pilots' visibility or cause material
interference with the Airport's navigation and communication
systems. For purposes of this condition, "reflective material" is
defined as glazing with a reflectivity of 65% or greater.
(d) Grantor shall not hereafter use or authorize the use of Grantor's

all new bodies of water within the property and within a radius of
10,000 feet from the end of any runway of the Airport, shall be
prohibited provided that: (1) they are larger than one-quarter acre in
size; (2) they are designed to hold or retain water permanently or
over extended periods of time; and (3) they are bird attractants. To
the extent permitted by Federal law, this prohibition shall not apply
to a relocation or expansion of any existing water body or to
detention ponds that have outlet structures designed to prevent the
permanent containment of water.
(f) Grantor agrees, that with development of Grantor's Property, or any
portion thereof, that all of the Grantor's covenants herein shall, as
condition of approval of any subdivision plats by the City of
Loveland, be included in development agreement(s) with the City of

agrees that all subdivision plats shall contain the following
language: "All or a portion of the property being subdivided may be
located within the Airport Influence Area of the Fort Collins-

from low-flying aircraft as a result of 24 hour per day aircraft
operations."
3

contracts for the sale of any of Grantor's Property and, further, shall
include a provision in such sales contracts that the purchaser thereof
shall include the following disclosure statement in all of its
subsequent contracts for sale of such property: "The property
subject to this contract may be located within the Airport Influence
Area of the Fort Collins-Loveland Municipal Airport. Such
property may experience noise from low-flying aircraft as a result of
24 hour per day aircraft operations." Each such contract subject to
this condition shall expressly provide that the disclosure provision
survives closing and is enforceable at law or in equity by the City as
a third party beneficiary of such contract.
Grantor furthermore waives any and all damages and claims for damages caused or
alleged to be caused by or incidental to the prohibition of the activities described in
subparagraphs(a) through(g) above.
It being understood and agreed that all of the aforesaid covenants and agreements
