Council reaches consensus to time Cal Brewer Airport leases around insurance renewal
Summary
The Lake Isabella Village Council agreed to finalize airport leases at least 90 days before the policy renewal and to base users' lease obligations so users assume insurance costs on the renewal date; no formal roll-call vote was recorded.
Manley updated the Village Council on communications from users of the Lake Isabella Cal Brewer Memorial Airport, telling members the key outstanding question is when airport users would be required to assume insurance costs. The council was told the existing insurance is paid annually and will expire in the first quarter of the Village’s 2026–2027 fiscal year.
After discussion, the council reached consensus to finalize the airport lease at least 90 days before the policy renewal and to structure future user leases so that users assume responsibility for the insurance premium on the renewal date. The council did not record a formal roll-call vote on the matter; the minutes describe the decision as a consensus direction to staff.
The decision leaves several administrative steps to village staff and the airport users, including determining the exact renewal date, drafting lease language that assigns responsibility for the insurance premium on renewal, and communicating those terms to current and prospective airport users. The minutes do not record a quotation from the airport users or the exact lease-drafting timeline.
