Morgantown City Council approved the second reading of an ordinance on Aug. 26 authorizing a supplemental agreement to real estate contract DTFAEA-06-L-00064 with the Federal Aviation Administration that allows navigational equipment to remain on airport property.
City staff summarized the item, which was presented previously at the council’s Aug. 12 meeting. Councilors voted on the ordinance during the meeting and the clerk recorded a roll-call vote of seven in favor, zero opposed.
The ordinance extends the city's agreement with the FAA to allow the continued placement and maintenance of navigational equipment on airport property; the extension was described by staff as enabling the FAA to continue providing and maintaining navigational aids located on city-owned airport land.
A council member moved and a colleague seconded the measure. After brief discussion and a roll call by Clerk Wade, the measure passed 7-0.
The action was procedural and completes the second reading required for the ordinance to take effect under the city’s legislative rules.
