Pursuant to the above authority, on October 31, 2022, I issued Administrative Order No. 58-22-26-F adopting an updated Airport Fee Schedule (“the Fee Schedule”). C. On January 26, 2024, I issued Administrative Order No. 58-24-02, ordering that notice be given of the opportunity to submit written comments on my proposal to set new Airport fees. The Notice specified that comments on the proposed amendments would be received for 15 days from January 31, 2024, the publishing and posting date of the Notice. No comments were received within the time or in the manner described in the Notice. D. Based on my investigation pursuant to the provisions of Sections 2.020, 2.440, and 2.442 of the Eugene Code, 1971, and Section G.VII.e of the Eugene Airport Administrative Rules as set forth in Administrative Order No. 58-22-27-F (See Exhibit B to this Order), I find that the fees should be set as proposed. E. The unamended Airport fees adopted by Administrative Order No. 58-22-26-F are incorporated into the Airport Fee Schedule attached as Exhibit A to this Order. On the basis of these findings, I order that: 1. The Airport Fee Schedule attached as Exhibit A to this Order is the schedule of fees to be charged for the described services as of the effective date of this Order. 2. The Fee Schedule attached to Administrative Order No. 58-22-26-F is superseded by the Airport Fee Schedule attached as Exhibit A to this Order, as of the effective date of this Order.

Exhibit B to Administrative Order No. 58-24-02-F Page 1 of 3 Findings Proposed Airport Fee Schedule Amendments ● Pursuant to Section 2.020(2), 2.440(2) and 2.442(1) of the Eugene Code, 1971, the following factors have been investigated/considered in determining the proposed Airport fees: (a) Applicable policies, enactments, and directives of the Council. Findings: All applicable policies, enactments & directives of Council have been reviewed and met. The airport reviewed rates and charges established in Admin Order 58-22-26-F and determined the need to update. Rates are set either based on fair market value, per FAA regulation, through other city processes, or other NGO processes that have already been reviewed through a public process. The change in rates is driven by changes in costs incurred by the airport. (b) The amount charged by the City in the past. Findings: Amounts charged in the past have been reviewed. Updated fees and charges are proposed to maintain self-supporting revenue for the airport. Fees for services charged at the airport are based on industry standards. (c) The full costs of providing the service supported by the fee. Findings: Proposed fees and charges are calculated for full recovery of costs for services provided and at a level to remain competitive with other airports in the region. (d) Comparable rates charged by other airports. Findings: Where appropriate airport fees and rates were compared with other airports of similar size as well as comparatives with airports within our geographical region to remain competitive. (e) The revenue needs of the airport. Findings: Airport calculates rates based on actual cost of doing business as well as maintenance of the facilities, runways, and taxiways. (f) The amounts or rates and other municipal benefits agreed to by comparable users of the airport in a contract, lease, or permit. Findings: All airport rates and fees require substantially comparable fees for all tenants, lessors and customers per federal regulations and federal grant assurances. Contract and Lease rates at the airport are set either through RFP processes, by establishing Fair Market Value through appraisals, or comparatives with other airports. Factors listed above that are irrelevant or inapplicable in determining the amount of the fees, if any: N/A ● Pursuant to Airport Administrative Rule Section 11.1, in determining the amount of the fee for Ground Transportation Permits, the Airport Director has considered: (g) The amount charged for such permits in the past. Findings: Prior rates are taken into consideration when setting future rates and adjusted for increased airport expense. Exhibit B to Administrative Order No. 58-24-02-F Page 2 of 3 (h) Comparable amounts or rates, of any, charged by other Airports. Findings: Rates were looked at across the nation as were contracts of other airports to arrive at a rate that is comparable, fair, and competitive in our region. (i) The consideration paid to the City by comparable users of the Airport. Findings: All airport rates and fees require substantially comparable fees for all tenants, lessors and customers per federal regulations and federal grant assurances. Contract and Lease rates at the airport are set either through RFP processes, by establishing Fair Market Value through appraisals, or comparisons with other airports. (j) The revenue needs of the Airport. Findings: Airport rates and fees are calculated to keep the airport self-sustaining. All commercial users of the airport are required to pay fees and charges to cover the wear and tear on the facilities by business conducted on site. (k) The need to create incentives for businesses to locate and operate at the Airport. Findings: This fee is not an undue burden that would be a barrier for a business providing this service to operate at the airport. Our passengers are a natural incentive to do business at the airport and provide additional business/revenue for our transportation partners. (l) The benefits obtained by the business from its operations at the Airport. Findings: The business will be exposed to large numbers of customers at one location by operating from the airport. (m) The need for a variety of economically viable transportation activities at the Airport. Findings: These services provide easily accessible and variable rates for our customers to find economically viable transportation from the airport to activities within our community during their stay. The airport seeks to engage transportation partners for all of our customers at varied levels of service desired by them. Additional Findings: (n) Affiliate Airline Parking Fee. Airport has identified the need for Affiliate Airline Parking Fee, offering our airline partners, such as pilots and flight attendants who frequently travel, discounted rates for parking at Eugene Airport. This fee, which is in a prime location near the terminal, contributes to covering the expenses associated with maintaining dedicated parking facilities at the airport. (o) Daily Charter Permit Fee. Airport has identified the need for a new Daily Charter Permit, permitting out-of-area and out-of-state charter companies to operate at Eugene Airport for passenger pick-up and drop-off occurring less than five (5) times annually. This will be a per trip permit. (p) Aviation Worker Screening Fee. Airport has identified a need for a new Aviation Worker Screening fee. TSA requires airport operators to set up and pay for an independent security checkpoint to screen airport employees. This per badge fee will help defer personnel and equipment costs associated to this recently imposed TSA mandate. Exhibit B to Administrative Order No. 58-24-02-F Page 3 of 3 (q) Room Rental Rates. The Airport has renovated a previously unused space in the Terminal building to allow for a space that can be used by Airport staff, Airport tenants, and the general public for small to medium-sized meetings. Previously there has not been a suitable space for these types of meetings at the airport. The fees for the use of this space are meant to provide additional airport revenue and cover the costs of maintenance and cleaning. The initial fees are based on the results of a comparative analysis of meeting spaces in other airports of similar size.
