Historical Site #315, listed on both the state and national Registry of Historic Places, a small patch of land on an ocean bluff known as “The Kitty Hawk of the West.”
The no-rent lease is one of a handful that the city has. In 2008 the then-head of the real estate department questioned the wisdom of a rent-free deal to a for-profit business on public land.
Asked why it has taken three years to move to redo the lease, a department spokesman said all such proposals are “prioritized based upon staff workload and scheduling.”
"And it’s all rent free".
"The city collects no money under the terms of the lease — known as a “flat-rate lease” — which was first negotiated in an exclusive,
No Bid arrangement in 1998.
That agreement expired in2018"
For the past two decades the city has leased the property to a private company founded by a former city police officer, which runs flight operations, sells flying lessons and equipment.
And it’s all rent free.

Bob,
Is the 2014 court case document available here so we can compare the two.
There were some other no bid leases going on in the "hold over" mode.
I think that it is at the base of any future lawsuits or appeals.
You testified and then they locked you up, and in court, and continued their "false advertising" and down right lies campaign to the public. The 33 cause for action's against you, were/are, just a ploy to distract the public from what's really going on and it worked,
They quickly went from "Hang Gliding & Paragliding" advertisements to;
Paragliding & hang glidingshowing one small HG in amongst 20 large PG's.
And it’s all rent free.

(for his multi million dollar private company operating on a historic glider park) sells flying lessons and equipment. If you want quality Hang Gliding information,...go somewhere else.
And it’s all rent free.

I called TPGP and they said that Hang Gliders rarely show up any more due to the overcrowding, but on really windy days where PG's can't fly, then they come. O.K.?
oh, also the repair shop told me that they do not work on Hang Gliders any more, but they certainly have all the Paragliding equipment.
I asked how much was P3 rating and they said about $6,000, plus the equipment
(that only lasts 5 years at best) is about $10,000.
"You should get your paraglider inspected by a certified inspector every 2 to 3 years but it's not required, but every 5 years you should buy another paraglider and throw your old one away, or sell it to someone else. ha.." Are all these guys being subsidized? and where is the Grand Jury"
