Why This Vote Matters
The council approved extending Auto Warehousing Company's lease at Terminal 3 through December 2018, with the company paying at least $42,000 annually to the port. The vote passed with broad support, 5-1, with only Councilmember McLaughlin opposed and Mayor Butt recusing himself. This allows the company to continue operating in the same port space it currently rents, preventing a gap in the lease that was set to expire soon. The extension provides steady rental income for the port while giving the business certainty about its location.
