Exhibit B to Administrative Order No. 58-26-11-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 58-25-15 and determined the need to update. Rates are set by updating our fee and rental structure for the facilities and services at the airport which will make the airport as self-sustaining as possible per Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations and grant assurances. 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 determined based on the cost centers and allocation method used for its operational and maintenance expenses, as well as financing costs. (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 budgeted 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. Fees for services at the airport are set by updating our fee and rental structure for the facilities and services at the airport which will make the airport as self-sustaining as possible. 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. 58-26-11-F Page 2 of 3 (h) Comparable amounts or rates, if any, charged by other Airports. Findings: Rates were looked at across the nation 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: Not applicable (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: Not applicable Additional Findings: (n) Rental Car Ready Space Rent Establishing the Rental Car Ready Space Rent ensures appropriate cost recovery and reflects current operating and maintenance expenses. (o) Vehicle Drop-Off/Pick-Up per trip (p) Parking Reservation Establishing Parking Reservation allows Eugene Airport to actively manage limited parking capacity during peak demand periods while maintaining availability for customers. This approach improves customer experience by providing a guaranteed parking option, enhances operational efficiency during high-volume events, and ensures appropriate cost recovery for the Airport. Exhibit B to Administrative Order No. 58-26-11-F Page 3 of 3 (q) Push-Back Tractor & Tow Bar Rental Current ground handling tenants lack the specialized equipment needed to service large charter aircraft widebody operations. To maintain operational readiness and support charter, diversion, and irregular operations, the Airport is acquiring a pushback trailer and tow bar for rental to tenants. This provides an uture widebody activity. Responses to Public Comments 1. Comment – One commenter said that there should be an overall different fee structure for transportation companies that are based out of town and do not operate at the airport regularly. Response – Eugene Airport states that the change of rate structure to be a per trip fee increases equitability between transportation providers and ensures that rates remain consistent across all users in relation to their use of the airport facilities and infrastructure. No changes are being made to the proposed Rates and Fees as a result of this comment. 2. Comment – One commenter requested clarification on how the drop-off/pick-up fee would impact rental car concessionaires. Response – Eugene Airport states that the drop-off/pick-up fee will not impact rental car concessionaires as rental car concessionaires do not operate out of the vehicle-for-hire location and thus will not be assessed a per trip fee. 3. Comment – Space Rate citing that the increase is high, question the reasoning behind it, and asking for additional transparency regarding the methodology and benchmarking used. The commenters requested that the Airport reconsider the proposed increase to rental car concessionaires. Response – Eugene Airport states that all rental car concessionaires are billed for 251 square feet of terminal space. Based on the updated Exclusive & Preferential Space Rental Rate, this results in an annual increase of $12,504.82 in terminal rent annually per rental car concessionaire. Additionally, under the Airline Agreement in effect from July 2015 through June 2026, rental car concessionaires benefited from terminal rental rates being partially credited by the airline partners. This credit resulted in rental car concessionaires paying less than what would otherwise have been required to cover full operating and maintenance costs. Due to a change in the Airline Rates and Charges methodology, these credits will no longer apply going forward. When evaluating adjustments to terminal rental fees, the Airport must also consider its obligation to remain needs. Additionally, the Airport reviews rates and fees at comparable airports and considers fair market value as determined by professional real estate appraisers.
