Approval of the 60-Day Notice to Terminate Lease, Jacqueline Cochran Regional Airport Temporary Lease Agreement between the County of Riverside, as Lessor, and

On April 3, 2023, the County of Riverside, a political subdivision of the State of California (“County”), and Desert Jet Center LLC, a California corporation, as Lessee (“Lessee”), entered into that certain Jacqueline Cochran Regional Airport Temporary Lease Agreement, as amended by that First Amendment to Jacqueline Cochran Regional Airport Temporary Lease Agreement (collectively, the “Lease”). The Lease relates to the occupancy of an approximately 10,625-square-foot aircraft hangar and an adjacent 1.5-acre improved ramp area (collectively, the “Leased Premises”). The original term of the Lease expired on January 31, 2025. Since that time, Lessee has remained in possession of the Leased Premises on a month-to-month tenancy. On June 10, 2025, the County issued and advertised a Request for Proposal for a long-term lease of the Leased Premises, and Lessee was not selected to move forward for the negotiations of a long-term lease. The County is now prepared to move forward with the successful respondent. In accordance with Section 15 of the Lease, the County seeks to formally terminate the month-to-month tenancy with the Lessee. Pursuant to County Ordinance No. 861, Section 8, the Transportation and Land Management Agency – Aviation Division (“TLMA – Aviation”) will seek Board approval to issue a 60-Day Notice to Terminate Tenancy (“60-Day Notice”). The termination notice will be dated December 16, 2025, providing the Lessee until February 14, 2026 to vacate the Leased Premises. The 60-Day Notice has been identified as a proposed project under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) because a discretionary action is required for approval. Approval of the 60-Day Notice is limited to the termination of the Lease and will not result in any direct effects on the environment. Subsequently, this 60-Day Notice will not result in any significant environmental impacts or include any mitigation measures.
