The commission was set to consider a lease agreement with its fixed based operator, Fort Collins-Loveland jetCenter. The plan would have razed three T-hangars that house about 60 private planes and permitted jetCenter to build jet hangars and jet services on that land. Private plane owners complained about the lack of notice of the lease agreement, that their interests were not taken into consideration since private hangar space is in short supply along the Front Range, and they asked why the jetCenter proposal, an unsolicited bid, wasn’t opened up to competitive bids. Jason Licon, the airport manager, said the jet services expansion is within the facility’s 2006 and 2020 master plans and was meant to provide for the highest and best use of the publicly owned property. The commission’s attorney said there were no legal issues with moving forward with the lease.
