Originally, the Airport was proposing to have an airline agreement in this grant, but that didn't work out because of some recent events with Northwest, so they are recommending that the money be reallocated to marketing and air service development so that funding available in the future.

Councilperson Greenwood stated he brought this to the attention of staff and asked if anything has been done with it, has it been resolved. Nancy Eckert, City Clerk, responded that the property owner filed a claim through the city's insurance, and he also filed a claim through the contractor's insurance. Ms. Eckert stated she thinks that both claims were denied. Ms. Eckert stated the city would not be responsible because we require our contractors to carry insurance, so if something happens during the contract the claim needs to be filed through the contractor.
