The members of the Committee discussed the application, the vetting process and the informational presentation available to interested parties. Ms. Brown explained there are two YCAA Directors who have completed their three terms, President Ronald Rice and Director Stanley Gourley. There are three YCAA Directors who are up for re-election, 1st VP Albert Gardner, and 2nd VP Linda Morgan, who have expressed their desire to be placed on the ballot for possible re-election and Director Jonathan Matheus who has removed himself from the re-election process due to time commitments. The Committee expressed their desire to keep the Board diversified with professional from all areas and industries with the interest of the Airport.
