REGULAR AGENDA
1) Discussion and Possible recommendation regarding the activities of the Aviation Mechanic Services Planning Advisory Group (AMSPAG)
The Committee Chair led a lengthy discussion describing the work of the AMSPAG and the possibilities for success. After discussing the issues at hand the committee encouraged continued efforts to promote technical education in the area of aviation mechanics. The Committee will recommend that this effort continue but stay under the Strategic Planning Committee. In regards to the possibility of leasing the Wrong Way Hangar in support of such efforts, it was deemed to be too early and any lease arrangements considered be at current market rates.
2) Discussion and possible recommendation regarding the Authorities ability to operate on the airfield during both towered and non-towered hours
The committee discussed at length the issue of MCAS Yuma’s continued denial of airfield access to Non-Department of the Navy (DoN) military customers during non-towered hours. A discussion ensued regarding the right of access to the airfield runways and taxiways contained in the Patent and the nature of how the Airport Director should address the concerns of the Authority.
The consensus of the committee was for staff to have a meeting with Mayor Nichols, Col Suggs and his staff regarding access to the airfield runways and taxiways for non-DoN customers during the military non towered hours.
3) Discussion and Possible recommendation regarding the recent offer by AV, Inc. to buy out the remainder of their existing lease of hangar facilities at Rolle Airfield
The Airport Director, Ms. Wiggins updated the committee on negotiations underway with AV, Inc. related to their interest in “buying out” the remainder of their lease for the hangar at Rolle Field which currently extends through 2022. Ms. Wiggins described how the company has changed directions and no longer wishes to operate at Rolle Field. Staff provided information on the value of remaining rents which exceed $150,000.
The consensus of the committee was to direct staff to continue to negotiate the possibility of a buyout.
