FROM: COMMITTEE ON COUNTY SERVICES -- 2.6 MAY 22, 2001
Your committee has considered communication 5-22-8 from Michael
Thompson, Administration Director asking to continue the existing
land lease agreement with James Weiss for farming the 16.97
tillable acres at Browne Airport.
We met with Mr. Thompson who informed us the lease would be at the
prevailing rate of $75 per acre. The three-year contract period
will be adjusted to conform with the County's fiscal year ending
date of September 30. The Airport Committee approved the extension
of the farm lease at its March 28, 2001 meeting.
It is the recommendation of your committee to approve the threeyear
land lease agreement between the County of Saginaw and James
Weiss, as outlined above. We further recommend the proper County
officials be authorized and directed to execute the necessary
documents on behalf of the County, subject to review by the
Controller as to substance, and Counsel as to legal form.
Respectfully submitted,
COMMITTEE ON COUNTY SERVICES
