Agenda note: DOCUMENT(S) SUBMITTED:
1. McCarran Rent-A-Car Center Fees Collected by On-Airport Rental Car Operators (5 pages) submitted by Clark County Department of Aviation
DISCUSSION: Following introduction of the item, the Board was addressed by Joe Piurkowski, Chief Financial Officer at McCarran International Airport, who advised that the proposed increase to the Customer Facility Charge (CFC) was from $4 per day to $5 per day; the rent-a-car operators were aware of the increase, as the increase was discussed during the annual meeting; the proposed change allowed the Director of Aviation to increase the CFC on an as-needed basis, to a maximum of $8; at the request of the operators, the daily CFC will not exceed fourteen days per rental vehicle contract; and the fees were used to support the operations, maintenance, and capital improvements of the facility; compared McCarran to twenty-one other airports and found that McCarran was towards the lower end of the range, with the average daily rate for CFCs being $6.57, seventeen of those surveyed had daily rates above $4, and twelve airports had no limit on the number of days to charge the CFC.
Chair Kirkpatrick opened the public hearing and asked if there were any persons present in the audience wishing to be heard on the matter.
