Authorizing carry forward funding in the amount of $35,000 from the FY 2017 Airport budget.
Summary
This Order will authorize the carry forward of $35,000 of FY 2017 Airport funds for the airline incentive
program. If approved, these funds will be used, along with the FY 2018 funds, to provide advertising and
marketing assistance for the expanded United Airlines service to Newark. In 2011, the City Council adopted
and implemented the proposed air service incentive program, whereby the airport is able to provide financial
and marketing incentives to air carriers that are considering expanding air service to the region. This policy is
in compliance with FAA guidelines. The announcement of this expanded service was at the end of FY 2017,
which did not allow the airport to utilize these funds, therefore staff is recommending that these funds be
carried forward to FY 2018. This item was reviewed and recommended for approval at the November 14,
2017 meeting of the Infrastructure Committee.
