opportunities to Increase European traffic. The Committee has requested tat staff develop a funding
recommendation for this agreement that makes use of bot currently budgeted funds and airport
reserves. Awed of to contract will be considered at an upcoming Finance Committee meeting, and the
Transportation Committee felt R would be appropriate to also have to Finance Committee review and
make a recommendation on a funding strategy. Since this funding strategy will likely depend in part
