Gradisar VIA: Marisa Stoller, City Clerk FROM: Greg Pedroza, Director Aviation SUBJECT: AN ORDINANCE APPROVING AN INSTRUMENT OF RELEASE BETWEEN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND THE CITY OF PUEBLO, A COLORADO MUNICIPAL CORPORATION, FOR THE RELEASE OF LOT 12 IN THE PUEBLO MEMORIAL AIRPORT INDUSTRIAL PARK SUBDIVISION AND AUTHORIZING THE MAYOR TO EXECUTE SAME SUMMARY: This Ordinance approves an agreement with the United States of America for the release of land in the Pueblo Memorial Airport Industrial Park Subdivision. PREVIOUS COUNCIL ACTION: Since 1970, City Council has approved the release of lots in the Pueblo Memorial Airport Industrial Park to various businesses. BACKGROUND: This agreement with the United States of America is for the release of Lot 12 in the Pueblo Memorial Airport Industrial Park so that it may be sold to the Pueblo Development Foundation. The United States of America transferred ownership of the airport property to the City on July 20, 1948. This transfer carried with it a number of obligations, restrictions, and conditions. These obligations, restrictions and conditions are also carried with all federal grant funding accepted by the City. The most recent grant acknowledging these obligations, restrictions and conditions was accepted on August 8, 2022, by Ordinance No. 10241. Lot 12 of the Pueblo Memorial Airport Industrial Park is surplus property because it disconnected from the primary airport property and is better suited for other uses. The agreement with the United States of America will release this lot from the federal obligations, restrictions, and conditions, allowing it to be used for purposes not related to the airport, such that the property does not interfere with the safe use of the Pueblo Memorial Airport. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS: Once the release is effective, Lot 12 is intended to be sold to PDF for $440,000, which is the appraised value of Lot 12 (12.56 acres of land), which would be deposited into the Special Airport Improvement Trust Fund. BOARD/COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION: Not applicable to this Ordinance. STAKEHOLDER PROCESS: Not applicable to this Ordinance. ALTERNATIVES: If this Ordinance is not approved, the land will not be released. RECOMMENDATION: Approve the Ordinance. ATTACHMENTS: 1. PUB Parcel 12 Instrument of Release
