Addison Airport Operations and Management

The Addison Airport situation is a mix of interrelated issues critical to Addison’s financial and business development future. They are more important to voter interests than many believe.

Central are issues of:
  • Properly renewing the airport management contract by a new and open bidding process;

  • Reducing the high cost of aircraft fuel relative to competing airports;

  • Preventing a potential FAA restriction of Addison Airport’s airspace;

  • Forging new working relationships and balance among private pilot and commercial airport tenants, airport management and Addison government;

  • Preventing a further decrease in airport profitability because of worsening economic conditions.
My position is that this mix of issues cannot continue as they are now. There need to be new perspectives and relationships. I call for a series of open public discussions, debates and involvement among interested parties as soon as possible to begin formulating solutions to this situation. Out of this process I will develop further specific action positions on the airport issues.
