Motion carried.
RECESS
Mayor Rooff called the meeting to order at 7:40 p.m.
Jordan now present at 7:40 p.m.
113160 - Mayor Rooff reported that he received a letter from former Airport
Commissioners. Mayor Rooff read portions of the letter as follows: "Though
individuals, many of us commissioners have had conflicting opinions regarding
the operation of the airport, we are united that the airport should: A)
Continue to be independent and completely free from politics. B) Contrary to
what has been suggested, many of the major airports in Iowa are still
functioning under Section 330, among them, Cedar Rapids, Mason City, Dubuque,
and Fort Dodge. The recent confusion regarding the airport is a result of not
having a full contingency of commissioners and the conflicting role of the
airport development authority. C) The introduction of a 392 or any other type
agency, regardless of the ordinance, which is flawed, does allow the city to
circumvent and micromanage. D) An additional concern is, while it represents
there is little change, factually destroys the true power' of the commission and
transfers it to the Mayor/Council." Mayor Rooff further read, " While it has
been suggested that the Mayor/Council can dissolve the commission, we are not
aware of any legal opinion that upholds this. While the commission was created
under a 330 in 1944 the opinions that upheld this matter have been as recent as
1978 and again in 1989. Re: 1167 Opinion No. 89-1-2(L) this Attorney
General's opinion is dated January 26, 1989, which clarifies 330.23 and
concludes that while 330.23 indicates a city could establish an airport and
operate same, by means other than a 330, and again to paraphrase 330.23 is an
attempt by the legislature to make clear who abolishes an airport commission
and goes on to say `However, 330.23 does not prescribe the means by which an
airport commission is to be abolished by a city. The legislature has chosen to
vest this authority in the electors of a city and the city council is without
power to terminate an airport commission without the approval of the
electors.'"
Mayor Rooff reported that he received a letter today from Ken Haynie of Ahlers,
Cooney, Dorweiler, Haynie, Smith & Allbee. Mayor Rooff read Mr. Haynie's
letter as follows: "You have advised of having received a letter from former
airport commissioners suggesting that the ordinance to establish an airport
administrative agency under Chapter 392 is contrary to Opinion No. 89-1-2 of
the Attorney General, dated January 26, 1989. Your proposed Ordinance is
authorized by Code Section 330.23. Its history is as follows: 1) In 1988, the
legislature adopted the first paragraph of Section 384.23, which authorizes a
city to abolish a Chapter 330 commission and provide for management and control
by an administrative agency. 2) On January 26, 1989, the Attorney General
opined that a conflict existed between 384.23 and 330.17. The latter section
states that a commission may be abolished by an election. The Attorney General
took the debatable position that 330.17 applied to an abolition under 330.23.
3) The legislature in the 1989 session clarified its intent, amending 330.23
to state: `Sections 330.17 through 330.20 do not apply to the abolition of an
airport commission by a city pursuant to this section for the purpose of
establishing an administrative agency pursuant to Chapter 392 to manage and
control all or part of its airport.' Thus, the 1989 legislation effectively
reversed the Attorney General's opinion in the context of your proposed
ordinance. Airport commissions or boards are not independent. Inevitably, the
