COUNTY AUDITOR
MEMORANDUM
TO A. R. Skelly, Director of Airports
FROM Danny Kolhage, Finance Director
DATE September 27, 1983
SUBJECT: Conch Flyer Restaurant/Lounge
In response to your memorandum of September 23, 1983 concerning the
Conch Flyer Restaurant/Lounge I must advise you that the audit that you have
recommended would result in considerable expense to the County since it is
outside of the scope of the regular county audit.
It appears to me that Article 3 Paragraph A.l requires that the deter-
mination of credits shall be based on "invoices evidencing improvements" and
therefore it seems to place the burden upon the lessee to provide the County
with the invoices in question.
I suggest that this matter be referred to the County Attorney and that
he be asked to make a determination concerning compliance by the lessee with
the terms of the lease with Monroe County.
If after Mr. Proby's review you still feel that an audit is required I
would suggest that you take your request to the Boa~d of County Commissioners
and that they be asked to authorize such an audit.
If you have any questions concerning the above, please contact me.
truly

MEMORANDUM
TO; Danny Kolhage
Finance Director
FROM: A. R. Skelly 11 1l~
Director of Airports ~~
DATE: 9-23-83
RE: Conch Flyer
Restaurant/Lounge
Attached are sales records from the Airport Restuarant/Lounge
for the first two months of business. Please note the renova-
tion expense of $168,266.22 claimed.
I have asked Mr. Sellers on at least 5 occasions for receipts
and invoices documenting these expenses. I have given him a
copy of Mr. Proby's memo (attached) requesting the same in
accordance with his lease. His standard reply is that he has
records and if the county wants to see them he will show them,
He has yet to provide copies to anyone in the county.
I would recommend that a county approved audit be conducted on
the lounge before any credits are allowed to Mr. Sellers.

I received in the mail a copy of a letter dated August 18,
1983 regarding an analysis of the July 14th thru August 13th
sales of the Conch Flyer Restaurant. I note that in the
breakdown, Mr. Sellers states that he has an out-of-pocket
expense in fixing up the restaurant of $168,266.22. You and I
discussed this once before, and I believe that you will find, if
you look at the lease, that it requires that he give you bills
and invoices to show where this money has been spent. I am sure
the Commission will eventually desire this information, so I
think it should be secured as quickly as you can get it. Please
let me hear from you about this as I am sure the Commission is
going to be very desirous in knowing what the expenses have been
to Mr. Sellers in renovating this restaurant and making all of
the improvements he has made out there. There is no way we can
compute the credits that are to be given to him unless we have an
accurate account of what he spent under the terms of this lease
in getting the restaurant open for business.
