Description

Airport Advisory Committee Meeting 080818

A

This meeting to order.

A

A motion to excuse the members that our.

A

A

Thank you just.

B

Record that in the.

A

Minutes he'll turn it off. Oh geez thank.

C

You, like I, said my t1 is meeting seems like a good Regina Spektor get any shortage. Our next meeting before we go on to the stuff to push for the passenger and I wanted to.

C

I know last four meetings: we went ahead and we're able to retrieve this it's public record on the FAA website and our transportation stats, and basically what we did is the first page. You see it's a national for one year worth of activity. The latest month on record is, is mate they're, usually a couple weeks and compare that to the Rado to our airport and what we're seeing is where the some of the concerns were delays due to mechanical or whatnot.

C

It includes information when how how often the percentage that there on time and air carrier delay them, is airline delays, usually by mechanical or baggage or beauty that they take too long, but also aircrafts that are writing late mean like if an everything comes in at 12 and then that same plane is the one that's going to leave at 2:00. It tells you that 12 o'clock flight came in late and affected the subsequent flights. If that's also broken down here, the national percentage of delays for air carrier delays was five percent.

C

Colorado's, for one year's worth is four percent, where the previous aircraft arriving late is at six point. Five national Laredos at 3.5.

A

Sorry, where are you seeing the national the.

C

Nationals, the first page- and it says aircrafts- are writing late. I'm.

A

C

Up page, 101 and I think.

A

There was another piece for that: okay, so.

C

At the top of the page, it tells you what your, what the query is for so that top that tells you a national mate first Amane 2017, to make twenty feet the second page, just little Rado Texas.

C

So if you compare it to that's where you've seen where the rails down, so it's it's pretty um on board, except should we know the national average? But if we go deeper, you can actually go by the latest meant we've got the matron eighteenth and then we did it performance by airline as well for all the areas and then also each airline. So the grand on had the biggest percentage is allegiance with ten point: six air carriers of age, but because they're given ease- or that is amended operation system s for the month of me,.

A

National, we do better. It gets up to the weather de Lyon National Aviation system to make thanks.

C

Pretty much all across before anything.

A

C

C

Nine strikes out of 120 operations have nine flights with image United four flights with 85 out of eighty five operations. So there is there.

B

D

Next but every Airport.

C

It would have yes, but.

D

Snow, you know they're tearing up every push that takes one flight. You.

C

Know yeah, oh yeah and believe me I mean the airlines know they get recorded. It goes to the LT and all that NFA. So.

E

If we have cargo flight yeah.

E

C

B

C

B

C

We relocated the FIS to the website. That has not been a problem now since 2014 before 2013. We would have those situations, because the cargo was being pretty inspected here by customs.

A

C

Fuel and inspected whatnot, so you couldn't get the Allegiant plane to come and all of that has been recently.

A

During this say, it's only.

C

Passing it's only commercial.

A

E

If you have a big plane to stop there and be inspected yeah, the.

C

C

You are no the flight for Allegiant Orlando.

C

So you could see the drop of negative 24%.

C

Changes and their overall, their flight schedules their. What.

A

The numbers weren't there.

C

So much dr. what I'm being told is more as they open you stations they open about 70 new stations and so they're the reshuffled there are airplanes.

C

So we're still in talks, we do a meeting coming up in October with them to try and refrain not just or.

C

There's no possible.

F

Way for this year, thank know she's talking about over it's already.

C

It's already done, they usually start, you know doing things and.

D

It's really out.

C

C

So but we you know, we take our presentation, we take our numbers, we request it and then they did restructure isolated.

C

So some of the things that we talked to them in Midland back in a month ago, was that you know we're having a new Convention Center coming in there's tourism coming into the radio and the more people in they're coming in for conference, and so we're going to need flights, and it's.

D

They're still doing Las Vegas.

C

B

Yeah, that's where we see that, although they you.

C

Know which do CF drop because of that employments are picking up. I do see more activity by American and United. You would see this is going to be told in the next week's City Council meetings as well, but I'm American United has started and you promotional signs that they do and it's called basic economy. They started it somewhat recently it's starting to pick up a lot more and we want to just let the public know that now you have a low-cost seats.

C

Now you can take advantage of such as the savings would be $300 with anyone. You quote and really going so. I did a little quote test run just about two days ago and I said burrito to New York, buying the tickets at seven days in advance of your flight, and it was $200 savings, but by choosing basically Carnaby seat. So that's quite substantial savings.

C

There are only difference with American, it's a basic economy. Key, it doesn't allow you to have it.

B

Carry-On on the.

C

Bag on the top, you can only take your purse or your backpack that fit underneath see. I was told that effective next month, September that will introduce now one free carrier, so you know basically no different than a burger, so you can still check in a bag. But now, if in September, you can still use the basic economy with more debris luggage for the carry-on so use.

A

Developments with Mexicans, like negotiations, we're.

C

Still continuing with that, we had a meeting with the industry IG. He was part of that meeting and so we're we develop a a proposal that we're making to the erudite and.

C

A

The trout they come down here, the.

C

Combination of the two, so we invited them to come down to Laredo.

C

Requests will be meeting over the phone.

C

F

Of this moisture.

C

E

C

A matter of, if it's a matter of we don't want to affect the negotiations, because, where they're currently flying out of it might affect their service, they it's.

C

Right now there is no.

C

E

C

B

D

C

You to their hub and then from the hub will take you. You.

B

Can still go through the raid? Oh it's just another X.

C

C

D

F

C

Yes, the architect actually call.

C

F

It's a different.

C

It's a different project of they're, doing they're doing more for specific client. So I don't see that.

F

Kind of negotiation and dealing with opening to market to other individuals were just joking. We.

C

Had been working with Mexican customs customs and what they tell us, the port director for that I know, is that they're very willing and open to continue extending the program as whatever the industry needs. So I had several meetings with them, especially recently, and some companies the end-user and, for example, we sent the BMW they're interested in using the services, but they have several efforts that they or.

B

D

C

Would need to operate with and they were very, very approachable or Mexico customs and they said that they're willing to open up that airport is.

F

Not currently in the program you just bit more more dishes and more and more willingness with a new administration will change. Remember: December, I, I'm.

C

Hopeful, as you know, there's a lot of rumors about just within that agency. Coming to know, though,.

C

C

Also, but I would tell you that, right now the management team has been very, very helpful.

C

A

They px here I know, there's a big stop. Dr. January.

C

This is charter, there's only one day they get called.

A

Very now, there's.

C

Yeah there was some time four years but they're not here well,.

A

That's true it so many that.

C

It's only laughing yeah, it's very first one yeah four weren't because there were providing services, I think for I, think I'm, one point even UPS right now: they're working some charters for I think that's time. I spoke to a core DHL, but today that is the one that's doing. Dhl.

A

So another charter.

C

Capture their business so come either commit our Airlines, that's two different agents.

A

Capture all the land, software software.

C

A

Far as the accuracy we're not missing out on.

C

What affects us? Sometimes it's a domestic, because the towers.

C

And still continue to see, I mean it's completely correlated to the pardal and it is 34 34 percent dirty date and before the same month in cargo we see a chopper 18 percent. So goes down.

C

As you can see, we're still continuing with Chunkin, which I suppose you'd be somebody's. We're waiting for the appraisal report to finalize that bigger.

B

A

C

Depending on what the third appraiser.

A

One then you agree to a third one.

C

A

Not ask you because.

C

We recorded already, but once we get the final figure, then just.

A

So you know, because it can be perceived, that we're making an attempt to collect it to 42. But that's not the case.

C

And then Jetsons, we continue bankruptcy court. We did request from the court and eviction the tenant has requested for the court to accept them to stay with the contract and standard premises. So that's where our attorneys start going back and forth with the court with that. In the meantime he has I was advised by our attorneys that he has been already told to pay the fees and that he's passed you on rent and was advised that we should see a check for that in September for the court I. Don't.

A

Know much about this stuff, but I feel like you know they file bankruptcy, and now they have. They have us hostage.

C

A

Into the agreement of the contracts that are gonna terminate the contract so.

C

The contracts do have that already in place, it's it's. The law that protects them protects the tense. So if once you actually go through the back and see Court itself, regardless of what you have for that action in your previous agreement, the court.

C

So meanwhile they talk.

D

To me, and everybody says, is collect, this is an outrage exactly so.

C

I think, if I'm not mistaken, did they basically make the payments to the court and the court reduces appearance, Chui the city and then once it's established and they would start making payments to us directly. I think.

E

C

It's happened in the past.

C

E

I have to find that's.

C

What we're in right! Now, yes from what I'm told the entire amount will be paid so.

B

C

Week of September.

A

13, it's just like before.

C

F

Right now, are you charging ready? Oh.

C

Yeah yeah, how.

F

About we said when I've been told for the kids, nobody.

C

C

B

C

Then we have another tenant or tenant in court. It's at the fourth court of appeals in San Antonio and it's Moreno Jet Center, where there are behind approximately 42,000 dollars and that's for two areas that they're using here at the airport, on the flight line and also in that one. We have requested eviction.

A

Center for both the slash so the.

C

A

C

You know that I'm told it's your show on one of them: Eminem air cargo sublease, a portion of the building to the radio Jet Center peridot gent Center has refused to release the property and, on the second one is Laredo Jet Center a vacant lot where before there was a hand over hand over 162 which they demolished and they were supposed to construct a brand-new building. That brings anger, and that didn't happen.

C

So they I was told this morning that it has the court in San, Antonio went ahead and basically the air for the city won the case. The attorney for the tenant is Miss Teresa Farini, and he has appealed to the 4th Court of Appeals for every hearing.

B

C

Right now, so we would probably see something up till next month. That's.

B

What right not.

C

So, just back looking for important, it's a lot of time, I would say. I would tell you that it takes a lot of time.

A

C

A matter again, we go back, it's a matter of what the law allows. The process should be that.

B

C

Allow you prediction: then they cannot feel that and then you go to that district corn and from the court that can appeal that many goes to the court of appeals and they can still peel that to federal court. That's basically at the last resort.

A

C

Definitely works for our options with me in.

D

Addition to you, I'm, assuming this is just rent amount or whatever it be, to write.

C

D

I think, and what about legal t's who occurs those fees, the whoever.

C

D

Which? In legal fees that? It's still.

C

And then the other item taxiway echo, wiping reconstruction or what replace tent. That project is basically complete, they're just doing the final ceilings and cuts on the concrete. But we should see that wrapped up within the next 30 45 days and then the other item is the grant announcement or particle apron and face in seven and that's I'm telling you that tomorrow we're having never any backups 10:00 in the morning with Consuela.

C

We're very fortunate.

B

C

2 million with discretionary. What that means is that 2 million was in a competitive basis with all the airports in the country, and we were able to get that in addition to that yesterday, we meld over a grant application for supplemental funding that you have reviewed.

C

Towards the same project, so we're hoping we can get all the discretionary funding so.

A

Male discretionary and 1.6 times.

B

A

We have to match some of this. Yes,.

C

C

A
