Description
Airport Advisory Board Meeting 041223
C
D
C
E
E
You
can
see
right
now
we're
doing.
We
have
good
numbers
for
the
first
two
months
of
the
of
the
year,
it's
14
930,
which
is
six
percent
increase
in
the
employment,
we're
a
little
short
on
the
employment
for
compared
to
last
year's,
but
I
mean
it's
still
right
there
with
the
numbers
we
last
last
year
was
the
best
year
we
had
so
far
with
100
and
14
000
passengers
move
per
per
year,
so
it
was
a
good
year
for
the
airport.
E
A
E
So
we'll
be
full
schedule
back
on
by
the
summer,
hopefully
with
United,
bringing
that
third
flight
and
also
it'll
be
an
upgrade
on
the
planes
by
American,
Airlines
they're,
getting
away
from
the
175s
I
believe
and
just
bringing
on
crg
700s
and
and
we
will
have
more
first
class
roads.
I
mean
12
12
seats
instead
of
eight
on
the
new
planes.
Also,
so
I
mean
things
are
looking
good
for
the
airport,
so
hopefully
we'll
continue
with
this
trend
and
we'll
do
our
best
to
do
that.
A
E
Yeah
they
they
mentioned
the
pilot
shortage,
oh
yeah,
they
they
say
no
promises,
but
but
apparently
it's
on
the
schedule
for
a
United
also
for
that
flight.
Already
for
the
summer
saying
they're,
also
upgrading
the
planes
for
crj
200,
so
it'll
be
a
little
bit
more
spacious,
a
little
bit
more
passengers
capacity
so
should
be,
should
be.
It
should
be
good
burnout.
E
E
You're
a
narrator,
but
but
apparently
that
radar
is
very
wide
open,
so
but
I
mean
they
did
mention
that
they're
currently
negotiating
the
contract
with
their
pilots,
and
they
they
had
a
provision
that
all
the
all
the
people,
the
all
the
crew
from
the
ground,
should
be
from
the
reunion
so
on
the
new
contract.
That
thing
will
disappear
so
that
might
open
the
possibility
of,
for
instance,
I
know
for
a
fact
that
they
load
factor
from
Corpus
Christi
is
not
that
great.
D
E
If
we
take
away
one
plane
from
Corpus,
they
might
be
able
to
come
here
to
Laredo
and
their
frequency
will
be.
Their
load.
Capacity
will
be
up
in
Corpus
and
I'm.
Sure
one
plane
from
Laredo
might
get
filled.
Where
would
they
go?
Houston
Hobby,
so
it'll
be
direct
competition
for
for
United,
lower
lower
the
price
for
everyone,
so
I
see
it
as
a
win-win
for
everyone,
but
the
contract
is
still
in
negotiation,
so
hopefully
that
provision
stays
and
they'll
be
able
to
contract
out
the
ground
here.
E
Table
we
have
it,
we
did
meet
with
the
Volaris
and
I
know
Mexico,
but
right
now,
due
to
regulation
from
FAA.
That's
it's
not
possible.
There
is
still
on
cat
too,
but
they're
saying
that
maybe
this
year
by
the
end
of
the
year,
they'll
they'll
they'll
get
back
to
that
one.
So
there
was
maybe
something
Aeromexico
I
see
it
more
difficult
because
of
the
this,
the
pricing
that
they
have
Volaris.
Obviously
they
were
interested
in
what
we
have
to
offer
for
free
and
what.
F
E
E
A
E
Sure
that
we
limit
our
taxpayer
money
on
that
and
I
know
that
they're
they're
getting
great
numbers
across
going
as
maximum
capacity
and
I
know.
They
have
also
deal
with
the
with
the
Mexican
with
the
no
lateral
government
and
they
still
requested
money,
though,
even
though
other
plans
are
full
baby,
but
I,
don't
know
if
they're
getting
any
money,
though,
but
did
Southwest.
E
Vegas
or
no
I
mean
we,
we
basically
proposing
the
the
flight
to
Houston,
Hobby
and
then
connect
everywhere.
Basically,
that's
because
right
now,
the
Korean
business
model
that
they
have
with
the
with
the
ground
with
the
ground.
Union
people
is
basically
they
need
to
fly
to,
let's
say
to
Laredo
and
have
two
three
frequencies
daily
and
the.
E
E
Next
week,
I'm
flying
to
Las
Vegas,
so
on
Tuesday
and
hopefully
I
mean
the
idea-
is
to
to
propose
to
bring
back
the
Orlando
flight
and
I
mean
they
do
have
other
connections
to
Los
Angeles
Miami
they
can
fly
there.
So
I
mean
all
four
pitch
all
the
possibilities
here
to
Allegiant
I
mean
they
have
great
numbers
here.
I,
don't
I
mean
it's
just,
let's
see
what
they
say,
but.
A
E
The
time
we
proposed
that
flight
to
what
is
it
called
Sun
Sun,
Country,
Sun,
Country
yeah
I,
know
that
they
have
in
the
valley
they
have
that
fly
to
a
direct
flight
to
from
Harlingen
I,
don't
know
where
somewhere
else,
but
I
mean
they
were
interested
but
say
our
our
schedule
for
now
is
full.
So
we
might
look
into
next
year
or
something,
but
that's
some
country.
D
B
E
B
E
E
Cheat
because
the
percentage
are
wrong,
so
you
can
see
only
American
has
a
a
decrease
on
the
employment
and
deployment
little
small
decrease,
eight
percent
and
three
percent,
but
everyone
else.
Their
numbers
look
pretty
solid
United
with
an
increase
of
30
percent,
Allegiant,
47
percent,
and
so
obviously
aromat
is
gone.
So
no
flights
from
I
don't
matter,
but
but
this
is
just
a
breakdown
on
the
numbers.
I
showed
previously.
E
E
Moved
cargo
from
Amazon,
so
we're
pretty
excited
about
that
too.
So,
if,
if
everything
goes
well,
then
my
my
open
shop
here
on
Warehouse
or
something
Amazon,
so
they're
gonna
try
it
out
for
a
year
or
so
that's
what
they
told
us,
and
hopefully
business
continue
to
grow
for
them
and
they
they
can
open
shop
here.
What's
the
name
of
the
airline
Atlas
Atlas
therapy.
B
E
E
A
A
But
we
want
to
really
move
forward
with
the
ftz,
something
that
we're
trying
to
work
with
Amazon
and
there's
a
lot
of
packaging
small
packages
that
they're
working
through
and
if
they
go
to
ftg,
they
can
pull
it
out
without
having
to
pay
duties
and
then
go
straight
to
the
door
to
the
individual.
So
that's
the
process
we're
working
through
right
now,
FTC
is
going
to
be
kind
of
big
and
that's.
Why
we're
in.
A
A
The
one
going
Southbound
of
Mexico
there's
only
five
and
you
have
to
be
approved
by
missing
customs
and
there's
only
limited
I,
think
seven
airports
right
there
pushing
hey,
yeah,
eight
airports
that
you
can
go
to
and
it's
just
those
five
Commodities
and
it's
very
as
you
can
see
right
now.
Three
four
there's
been
eight
operations
for
three
months
right
now,
so
it's
very
minimally
used
in
something
that
we
gotta
we're
the
only
one
in
the
United
States
that
has
that
yeah
and
nobody's.
B
E
Yeah,
so
so,
basically,
what
we're
gonna
do?
There
is
gonna.
Obviously
the
request
was
FTC,
so
we're
gonna
promote
the
FTC.
We're
gonna
have
applications,
explain
all
the
all
the
process,
so
we
can
get
more
people
sign
up
right
now.
Currently,
there's
43,
40,
43
active,
so
warehouses
here
so
plan
to
get
more
and
obviously
we're
gonna
throw
in
some
of
the
Dual
customs
and
everything
there
on
the
on
that.
That
meeting
that
we're
gonna
have.
A
A
E
E
Okay
learning,
more
questions,
we'll
move
to
the
FIS
operations
on
the
third
Charter
and
third
Taxi
passengers,
the
numbers,
the
numbers
are
a
little
bit
higher
than
2022.
We
take
166
versus
843,
but
still
not
the
numbers
from
2021
I
mean
those
numbers
are
almost
double
but
obviously
on
on
2021
might
be
the
scare
still
a
lot
of
people
fly
in
private
instead
of
trying
to
go
into
a
full
Plane
full
of
covet
and
things
like
that
back
in
2021
right.
That
was
that
scary,
so
maybe
for
866
842
within
three
months.
E
So
moving
on
this
one
is
total
FIS
operations.
It's
the
same
so
to
move
to
the
fuel
flow
report.
That's
our
numbers
have
increased,
so
show
us
our
new
numbers.
Our
total
Guidance,
with
three
million
dollar
three
million
for
23
so
far
with
February
and
compared
to
22,
is
a
2.9.
That's
a
slight
increase
of
one
percent,
but
obviously
we're
making
more
more
Revenue
at
180
000
convert
to
137.
E
E
F
Mr
chairman,
the
construction
of
the
taxiways
that
G1
and
deep
blue,
we
continue
working,
we
have
a
little
delayed.
You
know
for
the
The
rain,
that's
a
bit.
We
are
with
about
85,
complete
and
we'll
try
to
finish
and
also
I
would
like
to
report.
We
also
started
a
new
project.
It's
called
the
construction
of
taxiways
H1
and
H2
and
taxiway
Alpha.
So
right
now
the
contractor
is
also
working
on
that
section
of
takes
away
our
family
on
the
west
side.
So
pretty
soon,
you're
going
to
see
the
style
reports
on
that
on
that
project.
F
D
F
E
G
F
G
This
month,
so
as
you
can
see
the
balance
sheet,
that
we
have
our
total
assets,
the
total
27.9
million
dollars-
and
we
currently
have
our
liabilities
and
fund
balances-
our
accounts
payable,
82
000
due
to
other
governments,
60
857,
retain
each
payable
4803
customer
deposits.
Ninety
thousand
seven
thirty
two
different
revenues.
309
924
gives
us
a
total
liabilities
of
514
617..
G
Then
we
have
our
fund
balances,
which
includes
our
reserved
for
encumbrances
of
1.2
million
and
unreserved
on
designated
days.
26.1
million
total
fund
balances,
27
million
423
775,
which
totals
are
total
assets
of
27
million
938
392..
Then
we
continue
to
our
unauded
statement
of
revenues
and
expenditures.
We,
you
will
see
basically
our
revenues.
G
G
G
E
B
E
Jesus
Christ,
we
still
haven't
used
the
2.2,
so
we
haven't
received
that
money.
I
mean
we're
once
once
we
collect
all
the
1.4
million
dollars
from
that
we'll
jump
over
to
just
collect
on
the
2.2.
We
would
just
basically
reporting
expenses
and
they'll,
give
us
back
our.
Basically,
all
all
of
our
operations
are
covered.
There.
G
G
G
operation
store
Garden,
which
is
personnel
only
11
227,
and
then
we
go
down
to
basically
original
expenditures,
as
of
here
today
does
of
February
28
2023
totals
to
3.5
million,
where
the
encumbrance
is
of
1.2
million.
To
give
you
untangled
values
of
11
million
for
one
307.,
and
these
are
financials.
As
of
February
20
2023.,.
D
E
But
basically,
what
you're
looking
here
is
we're
a
service
provider.
Most
of
our
expenses
are
related
to
Personnel,
so
you're,
looking
at
around
46
of
46
of
our
total
expenses
are
Personnel
I
mean
given
the
the
nature
of
our
business.
That's
that's!
That's
what
it
is
and
I
mean
the
highlights
here
are
basically
that
if
you
look
at
on
a
month-to-month
from
October
to
February
February
from
a
budget
standpoint,
we
we
budgeted
5.9
million
dollars.
E
A
E
More
questions
on
the
financial
we'll
keep
moving
forward.
General
staff
comments,
I
mean
I,
I,
don't
have
anything
else,
I
mean
it
was
just
pretty
much.
I
already
told
you
about
a
hard
trip
to
Chicago
and
next
week
I'll
be
going
to
to
Las
Vegas
to
with
a
legion,
so
I'll
keep
you
informed
of
that,
but
other
than
that
and
I
don't
have
any
other.
A
E
We
did
meet
with
Senator
Ted
Cruz,
which
he's
he's
on
the
on
the
committee.
I
will
reapprove
the
FAA
the
FAA
budget.
We
make
him
aware
of
our
of
our
issues
here.
We
left
them
a
presentation
and
everything.
Hopefully
he
can,
along
with
Congressman
cuer,
because
I
don't
need
to
tell
Congressman
where
I
I
tell
him
pretty
much
every
time.
I
see
him
hear
about
it
or
asking
if
he
has
any
checks
for
us
or
something.
D
C
E
Think
he
did,
he
did
give
a
check
of
20
million
dollars
to
the
San,
Antonio
Airport
and
say
man,
those
guys
don't
even
vote
for
you.
We
do
bring
that
money
here
with
that
20
million
dollars
will
complete
the
project
basically,
but
still
a
couple
of
applications
out
there
with
the
FAA
we
haven't
heard
from
them
back
so
hopefully
we
can
get
some
money
for
that
project.
E
Yeah
well
the
issue
right
now
with
the
tower
is
that
is
not
24
hours.
I
mean
we.
That
was
one
of
the
requests
too
I
mean,
obviously
we
concentrated
on
the
expansion,
but
we
have
several
several
other
requests
for
the
FAA,
like
the
tower
being
24
hours.
The
problem
here
is
that
when,
when
the
weather
I,
don't
remember
the
name
of
the
software,
it
was
it's
it's
down.
The
pilots
need
to
contact
the
tower
and
if
it's
after
12
well,
nobody
answers.
E
C
E
B
F
E
Last
American
flight,
but
it's
subject
to
FAA
funding.
All
of
that.
Another
request
on
for
in
Washington
was
the
lightning
because
I
know
we
we
don't
have
ILS
on
on
both
the
runways.
So
we
asked
for
more
lights
on
the
other
one
to
help
on
the
the
pilot,
but
I
mean
they
just
listen
to
you,
but
I
mean
you,
you
were
there,
so
it
was
basically
listen
to
you
and
tell
you
that
you
have
great
ideas,
but
but
we'll
see
pretty
much.
So
that's
basically
what
we
had
over
there.
E
So
moving
on
on
agenda
item,
these
two
agenda
items
were
sent
to
council.
There
were
approved
they're
going
on
the
second
here
and
the
first
one
is
the
lease
on
the
the
HEB
mall
for
the
Sanders.
It
just
basically
stay
with
the
same
terms
which
just
basically
did
away
from
the
having
a
a
appraisal
every
every
two
years,
we're
just
adding
the
Consumer
Price
Index
to
it
and
having
an
appraised
every
pipe,
every
five
or
ten
years.
What
is
it
it's
every
five
years,
instead
of
every
other
year?
E
That
will
take
a
lot
of
time
and
and
effort
from
both
parties
to
to
agree
on
that,
so
that
went
on
every
three
years.
The
second
item
is:
that's
particularly
the
one
that
you're
interested
in
it
was
the
landing
fees.
I
know
there
was
the
first
month
we
knew
we
were
getting
into
a
trial,
trial
and
error,
but
we
didn't
know
that
much
error
was
gonna
happen
on
the
first
month.
Basically,
what
happened
is
that
everyone
got
billed
everyone,
not
not.
A
single
soul
got
away
from.
G
So
yes
and
I
I
told
staff,
it
was
going
to
be
basically
something
that
we're
gonna
have
many
obstacles
to
overcome.
But
of
course,
right
we
want
more
revenue
for
the
airport
and
we
we
needed
this
system
to
be
placed.
It's
never
been
placed
in
the
in
the
last
30
years,
so
everyone
has
started
gone
built,
they're,
like
oh,
my
god,
I've,
never
paid
in
so
many
years.
Well
now
you
are
right
right,
but
eventually
you
know
we
went
through
the
amending
of
the
ordinance.
G
We
noticed
that
there
was
an
ordinance
that
we
need
to
follow
and,
of
course,
we
backtracked
those
charges.
We
contacted
vector,
vector,
contacted
the
actual,
basically
customer
and
reach
out
to
them
and
and
told
them
that
they
were
going
to
backtrack.
Those
charges,
credit
those
those
accounts
and
we
revised
those
right.
I
did
advise
Vector
that
we
couldn't
collect
or
any
sent
any
Billings
to
anyone
until
we
amended
the
ordinance
which
were
still
in
the
process
of
doing
so.
E
E
But
basically,
who
were
setting
the
rules
straight
that
who
ever
is
not
supposed
to
get
a
bill,
doesn't
get
a
bill
so
like,
for
instance,
you
that
you're
a
base
aircraft
here
at
the
airport.
You
shouldn't
get
a
bill
every
time
you
land
here,
so
those
exemptions
are
being
provided
to
Vector.
So
if
you
and
all
your
other
friends
won't
have
any
any
issues
from
now
on
and
if
they
do
please
let
us
know,
because
it's
something
that
we
need
to
work
on
and
get
get
fixed.
E
D
E
This
is
this
is
basically
what
we
were
talking
about
right
now.
The
date
was
total
60
million
dollars,
including
the
expansion
building.
So
right
now,
what
we're
doing
is
remodel
inside
of
the
terminal
so
you're,
looking
with
this
17
million
dollars,
you're
looking
at
remodeling
the
restrooms,
obviously
news
new
stairs
thank
God.
E
E
E
This
bit
well,
technically,
we
had
two
bits,
but
one
bit
was
not
responsive.
It
was
just
an
electrical
company
that
they
misunderstood
and
they
just
placed
their
their
baits
separate,
so
subcontractor,
the
subcontractor,
so
basically
was
just
one.
We
had.
We
had
two
companies
coming
to
our
premium
bid,
but
it's
just
one
company
that
applied,
which
is
the
one
here.
Let
me
see
here,
I
guess
the
bonding
capacity.
There's
not
there's
not
a
lot
of
people
that
have
that
bonding
capacity
here
in
Laredo
to
apply.
D
E
You,
sir,
on
item
number
two
I'll,
just
explain
real
quick,
basically
we're
drawing
down
from
our
fund
balance
that
you
just
saw:
let's
have
26
million
dollars,
we're
drawing
down
7.5
million
dollars
that
will
basically
that
will
be
our
our
portion
for
this,
for
these
Renovations
that
we'll
do
and
basically
we're
getting
reimbursed
by
FAA
on
the
on
Gears,
24,
25
and
26
to
our
entitlements.
So
if
you
look
at
all
together,
this
project
will
cause
the
City
of
Laredo
around
2.2.9
million
dollars,
basically
without
with
all
the
FAA
after
reimbursement.
E
C
A
D
D
B
Need
to
and
and
it's
not
working
right
now,
of
course,
with
the
covet
after
all
the
supply
chain
and
issues,
but
we
at
the
county,
we
initiated
a
system,
we
got
with
Enterprise
and
they
were
actually
informing
us
like
they'd,
come
check
the
cars
and
they'd.
Tell
us,
you
know
now
is
your
time
to
trade
them
in
and
they
actually
are.
Our
payments
are
going
down.
Yeah.
E
Yeah
I
heard
I
know
cheap
Chief.
Landing
is
a
big
proponent
of
that
here
and
that's
something
that
the
city
is
looking
at
right
now.
I
know
we
we're
considering
that
for
the
art
truck
I
mean
if
that's
we're
looking
into
that,
but
I'll
be
great
because,
instead
of
having
to
to
pay
from
1.5
million
dollars
for
a
truck
that's
sitting
there,
we
can
just
pay
at
least
for
that
truck.
So.
E
B
B
We
need
to
look
into
that.
You
know
you
get
three
years
and
they're
not
bumper
to
bumper,
and
let
me
tell
you,
there's
different
warranties,
like
I
know
with
Ford,
you
get
engine
and
Powertrain,
but
it
doesn't
cover
the
electrical
harness
and
that's
usually
what
goes
back.
So
it's
all
the
hinges
covered,
but
the
harness
is
not
so
you
have
to
get
the
gold
or
whatever
it
is
the
top
of
the
line.
Warranty
and.
B
B
F
E
Economic
Development
agent
for
the
city,
nothing
has
been
paid
and
nothing
will
get
paid.
Apparently
that
contract
is
expired
and
it
it's
not
even
not
going
to
get
renewed,
so
good,
basically
yeah
we're
done
with
it.
Yeah
yeah
we're
done,
but
so
I'll
ask
your
permission
to
remove
it
from
the
agenda
from
now
on,
and
obviously,
if
I
see
some
charges
when
they'll
bring
it
up
to
you,
but
right
now
it
shouldn't
be
anything.
Nothing
was
built.
