BACKGROUND
The Bayfront Park Management Trust (Trust) manages Bayfront and Bicentennial Parks. Two of the
Trust's objectives are to attract people to the parks and continue generating revenue through the use
of park facilities. To that end, a Use Agreement was entered into on June 25, 1997, between the
Trust and Concorde Cruises, Inc. (Concorde) for the use of the north end dock adjacent to Bayfront
Park. Pursuant to the terms of that agreement and its further amendments, Concorde is currently in
default for payment. The Trust at its board meeting of November 7, 2005, authorized the executive
director to pursue all legal remedies necessary to enforce the terms and conditions of the agreements.
