MEMORANDUM
TO: City Council
FROM: Peter O'Errico, Airport Manager
REFERENCE: Agenda Item - Hiring Additional
Permanent Personnel
DATE: March J, 1990
Approval to hire additional permanent employees.
With the growth the airport has been experiencing during the
past few years and anticipate this year, creates problems in the
area of adequate personnel and equipment to meet the service
demands placed upon us by the users
of the airport. Our secured
net profit for the 6 months ending December 31, 1989 was $2,537,619.
compared to December 31, 1988 of $1. 182,fi09. As we have discussed
in the past, providing services to international aircraft has been
the v rible part of our business and has been more difficult to plan
than the scheduled and routine traffic which is more predictable.
In calendar year 1989, we handled 806 international flights; i
calendar year 1988, we handled 1,413; and in calendar year 1989, we
handled approximately 3,400 flights. Our traffic for this winter
season is estimated at 200 flights per month, not including the
21 Air Atlantic flights that transit Bangor from Canada. Our summer
traffic for 1990 will be at 1989's level and we will be estimating
and budgeting for a 158 increase. Past experience has shown me that
currency exchange rates and money interest rates are always a factor
that has to be watched in estimating thiskindof traffic. With the
growth of the airport comes the problems of personnel and equipment.
Our part-time, on-call personnel list decreases significantly at the
end of the summer and w e presently experiencing considerable
competition for part-time labor. I an requesting that We add 5
permanent ramp attendants in order to handle this winter's operation
as well as the traffic we anticipate next year. Our Passenger
Services and security Screening Section is staFfed entirely by
part-time personnel and is also becoming extremely difficult. to
manage. Wring the past 11 months, we have handled 656,496
international passengers at Bangor and have security screened -
401,943 passengers. I am requesting that we add three permanent
passenger service personnel to. this section. As in the past, the
adding of personnel is always conditioned upon the levels of business;
should business activity change, then staffing would change accordingly.
In addition, we have employed on a n n -perms ent basis, a fuel Tank
Farm attendant whose job responsibilities include monitoring fuel
deliveries to insure correct quantities and quality of product as
accuracies on deliveries and quality control assurances are necessary
and required. 11
`1
our average daily delivery ranges between 115,000 gallons
and 260,000 gallons depending on seasonal demand.. I have been
advised by the Personnel Department that this position should
be changed from a temporary position to a permanent position.
