Property Development
The developer is responsible for all costs associated with the development of airport property, including environmental review, design, and construction, but excluding Airport staff's time. Upon the County's acceptance of a developer's proposal, the developer is required to make a good faith deposit of $10,000.

If within six months of the proposal's acceptance by the County, the developer fails to make meaningful progress in developing the agreed-upon development, as determined by the County's Director of Airports, one-half of the security deposit will be non-refundable.

If within twelve months of the proposal's acceptance by the County, the developer fails to make meaningful progress in developing the agreed-upon development, as determined by the County's Director of Airports, the entire security deposit will be non-refundable.

If the developer enters into a long-term lease with the County for the site of the development, the remaining portion of the good faith deposit will be applied to the cost to the Airport of putting the lease in place, excluding the cost of Airport staff's time, but including the cost of other County staff's time. At developer's election, any remaining balance will be refunded to the developer or applied to ground rent.
