Closed Session
October 10, 2000
Airport Business Service Center
The Airport Advisory Board entered into Closed Session to discuss lease issues.
Renaissance Aircraft and ARCH Air Medical Services - After several months of negotiations,
a letter was sent firm Mr. Mitch Robinson, Industrial Recruitment Association, to Mr. John
Dearden, Renaissance Aircraft, stating the final proposal we had to offer to Renaissance Aircratt
for relocating their manufacturing operations to Cape Girardeau. Mr. Loy had also been
approached by ARCH Air Medical Services with interest in leasing the "Lipps Hangar". He
informed them that another business prospect was looking at the site and Ire would have to hold it
for a short time to see what may develop. Since ARCA Air Medical Services has to be in a location
somewhere by January I, and the negotiations with Renaissance had been on going for so long with
the outcome not looking the best. Mr. Loy offered a $1.800 a month lease to ARCH Air Medical
Services for the "Lipps Hangar" and associated land. Once Mr. Dearden received our letter
basically stating we have done all that we could do as far as financing is concerned, he came back
saying they want to locate their manufacturing facility in Cape Girardeau. Mr. Loy explained he
is currently negotiating with Air Evac for some hangar space to be utilized by Renaissance while
a hangar could be built for them.
AIR EVAC - Mr. Lov informed the board that on Friday, September 29, 20011 Mr. Wayne Anders
resigned from his position as manager of Air Evac Aviation. The City staff is currently reviewing
information from Air Evac to determine if it would be advisable Por the City of Cape Girardeau to
buv them out and operate the FBO.
