~3 AIRPORT MANAGER'S REPORT
The ribbon cuffing and breakfast for Runway 18/36 had a good showing.
· Staff is currently reviewing a new parking software program the city is using
to see if it can be used at the airport. This will increase the efficiency of the
Operations staff and improve the number of tickets paid as these tickets will
be in the City system and cars can be towed after a set amount of unpaid
tickets. Andy will bring the matter back to the Commission
· The Airport will begin both the Capital and operating budgets for FY04
shortly.
· The airline leases are in the hands of airline attorneys in the review
process.
