SUMMARY:
The General Daniel “Chappie” James, Jr. Memorial Home site, located within the Eastside Urban Infill and Redevelopment Area, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and was donated to the City of Pensacola by the James family. Reuse of this facility is an approved and funded project of the Eastside Redevelopment Area. Two non-profit entities, the Chappie James Museum of Pensacola, Inc. and The General Daniel “Chappie” James Summer Flight Academy, Inc., propose to utilize the property for a museum and flight academy.
Renovation of the historic home and construction of additional space at the site is currently underway and expected to be completed in early winter 2017. Upon completion, sufficient space will be available to house both the flight academy and the museum.
On August 10, 2017, City Council approved a lease agreement with The General “Chappie” James Summer Flight Academy, Inc., to enable the non-profit to apply for a grant. An amendment to and restatement of the approved lease agreement is recommended to address common area and to establish, modify, and finalize the respective responsibilities of the parties for the duration of the lease agreement.
