Civic Asset Dossier #001 · June 18, 2026

The $1 Airport

A control question, not a land-sale windfall.

Naples Airport covers approximately 732 acres. The Authority reports that the City leased the airport to it in 1969 for 99 years, through 2068, at annual rent of $1. That is lease rent—not a purchase, sale, option, appraisal, redevelopment entitlement, or offer to redevelop airport land.

June 18, 2026 edition, updated July 2. The letter of intent was not operating service; later ticket sales remained subject to a use agreement, terminal work, and TSA approval. The commissioned survey is opinion research, not a vote.

Scope

One asset. One decision.

A dossier identifies the controlling instrument, current carry, productive potential, evidence gap, affected parties, and decision clock. An idea without a document or other controlling instrument is not advanced as a finding.

Evidence

The record before the thesis.

Factual claims trace to identified sources. Interpretation is labeled. Missing, stale, or conflicting evidence stays visible, and corrections are accepted with source documentation.
