A RESOLUTION DECLARING
CERTAIN PROPERTY AS SURPLUS
WHEREAS, the Arlington Municipal Airport has two buildings known as the "A
Hangar"and the "B Hangar", located on Airport Lots 12 and 13, respectively; and
WHEREAS,the buildings were originally constructed with dirt floors in 1959 and 1960,
have no utilities, and until 1992 had no partitions between units; and
WHEREAS, the hangars are undersized compared to the hangars available in the
marketplace; and
WHEREAS, the City believes the structures are in poor physical condition and
substantial improvements will be required in the near future which will drain City resources; and
WHEREAS, the cost of renovating the buildings and bringing them up to current code is
so great that based upon an appraisal and consideration of comparable hangar leases, the Airport
Commission has determined that renovating the buildings and constructing new hangars is not
economically feasible; and
WHEREAS, based on an appraisal report obtained by the Airport, the most economical
return for the City will be achieved by declaring the buildings as surplus and allowing a private
party to remove the structures and construct new hangars in their place; and
WHEREAS, the City Council deems the value of the buildings to be surplused to be
insignificant and not worthy of further appraisal or the costs of a public sale;
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Arlington Washington do hereby
resolve as follows:
1. The City Council finds the buildings known as "Hangar A" and"Hangar B" on
Arlington Municipal Airport lots 12 and 13 to be surplus to the City's needs.
2. Pursuant to AMC 3.70.020, the buildings may be sold pursuant to private sale or
disposed of in a manner determined by city staff to be the most cost effective.
