Information

Referral History:

In 2014, Airports staff invited stakeholders to participate in an Economic Development Incentive Program process (EDIP) to identify priority projects and activities that would best position our airports to retain and attract tenants and businesses. The EDIP participants have been generally meeting on a monthly basis to develop and refine a top priority project and activity list for the airports. The EDIP process concluded their project/program ranking prioritization process in early August. The Aviation Advisory Committee discussed this matter at their February, March, April, May, July and August 2015 meetings. The AAC completed their project/program ranking process at their August 13, 2015 meeting.

Referral Update:

This is a continuing discussion from the March 9, 2015, and June 8, 2015, Airport Committee meetings.
