项目名称: Legal Aspects of Airport Programs. Topic 11-03. Analysis of Laws, Regulations, and Case Laws Regarding Airport Customer Facility Charges
摘要: Many airports have imposed a customer facility charge (CFC) upon customers of rental car facilities located at the airport. These charges typically are applied to pay for the capital and, often, operating costs of a consolidated rental car facility at the airport. CFCs are also sometimes applied to pay for a portion of the costs of facilities, such as roadways or utilities, which support the consolidated rental car facility. Recently, challenges to the imposition and use of a CFC have been mounted in several states by classes of rental car customers. Few states have directly regulated the collection and use of CFCs, with the notable exception of California. The legal basis for collecting and using CFCs is analyzed pursuant to federal and state constitutional law and through interpretation of contracts between the airport owner and the rental car companies. The objective of this research is to examine state and federal law implicated by the imposition and use of a CFC; summarize applicable federal and state laws and regulations (including a state-by-state inventory of authorizing legislation, where it exists); and analyze any court decisions regarding the collection and use of CFCs. The research should collect, compile, and summarize an illustrative sample of CFC ordinances/rules. The research also should evaluate the ability to use CFCs for projects indirectly or unrelated to the facility for which the charge will be imposed. The analysis should be broadly applicable to imposition of charges for specific airport facilities.
