Note 6. Capital Leased Assets


In November 2003, Avalon entered into a long-term agreement with Squaw Creek Country Club to lease and operate its golf course and related facilities. The lease has an initial term of ten (10) years with four (4) consecutive ten (10) year renewal term options unilaterally exercisable by Avalon. Under the lease, Avalon is obligated to pay $15,000 in annual rent and make leasehold improvements of $150,000 per year. Amounts expended by Avalon for leasehold improvements during a given year in excess of $150,000 will be carried forward and applied to future leasehold improvement obligations. Based upon the amount of leasehold improvements already made and leasehold improvements anticipated to be made in the future, Avalon expects to exercise all its renewal options.


In addition, the captive landfill operations lease a piece of equipment that was determined to be a capital lease. The amount capitalized in the Consolidated Balance Sheets under the caption “Leased property under capital leases, net” was approximately $0.2 million and $0.3 million at December 31, 2014 and 2013, respectively.
