Dear Mr. Skelly:
I enjoyed speaking with you recently regarding ground
transportation issues a t Key West International Airport. As I
mentioned on the phone, AvPlan has extensive experience in this
area including related assignments at:
Fort Lauderdale-HOllywood
Palm Beach
Nashville
Portland
Greater Pittsburgh
As a result of the Alamo renta~ car decisi~(Sara~o~a'
substantial changes have -occurre'd' 1:e'::lcu.d~ng the development of
off-airport courtesy vehicle fees. At numerous airports across
the country deregulation has affected taxi service and the rates
which can be charged to taxi operators:
To assist Monroe County with the establishment of courtesy
vehicle and taxi fees, AvPlan proposes the following:
AvPlan will evaluate gross taxi revenues and address a
reasonable fee based on a per trip charge.
AvPlan will estimate off-airport courtesy vehicle
traffic. This will include off-airport rental cars,
hotel/motel operators, and parking lots.
AvPlan will establish a fee basis tor the off-airport
service providers based on established industry
practice.

This includes the development of a ground transportation policy
as well as a recommended rate structure. He propose to use the
