Cal Fire Airtac base ground lease negotiation
The airport is renegotiating the Cal Fire air attack base lease for 16.23 acres, asking the state to pay 3.5 cents per square foot — up from the 2 cents a previous city administration approved. The deal would also add 1.23 acres for helipads and clear the way for future hangar development.

The airport is part of a $7.4 million state grant effort to build flight corridors between four regional airports and is seeking FAA Electric Vertical Takeoff and Landing Integration Pilot Program designation through a Caltrans-led consortium.
