AGENDA ITEM WORDING: Approval for a month to month agreement until a formal agreement can be

Airport.
ITEM BACKGROUND: Skycap and luggage handling services are common and necessary services that
are not currently provided at the Airport. Paradise Enterprises, LLC has provided the included Letter of Interest
to offer these services, and since we have had similar services for a limited time in the past before the new
terminal building was opened, we desire to explore this potential source of additional revenue for the Airport.

primarily for the Ferry Terminal customers. We also,provide shipping services for
customers who don't want to drag their bags through airports. Recently we have
seen a substantial increase in requests for our services relating to the Key West
International Airport.
