Leasing Rates and Adjustments
It is our policy to ensure that fair market rental rates are applied to port land in an equitable and consistent manner. This information should help you understand how your rate is determined and under what circumstances it may change.
Land at the Port categorized as non-deep draft land is leased at base rates shown in the following table or at the highest rate being charged to a tenant in the same category or area of the Port, whichever is higher. There are certain exceptions. The use of Port property by passenger cruise lines is negotiated through Marine Terminal Agreements and use of Port property by deep-water cargo operators, hotels, "festive marketplace" operators, convention centers and world trade centers is negotiated through tailored lease agreements.

Lease Rate Adjustments
The lease rate for a new lease is established using the Lease Rate Table above or the highest rate being charged to a tenant in the same category or area of the Port, whichever is higher.
Once your lease is executed, it is possible for changes to occur in your lease rate under specific circumstances:
1. Inflation. All non-deep draft land lease rates are adjusted for inflation based on the U.S. Department of Labor Consumer Price Index–All Urban Consumers or an equivalent index.
2. Extension. If an extension to your lease term is approved, a new lease rate will be established as described above.
3. Assignment. If you assign your lease with an approved extension and/or change of usage, the lease rate will be adjusted to a new rate as described above. However, an approved lease assignment without an extension or change in use can take place without a change in rate.
