Oneonta council approves short-term appointment to Airport Commission
Summary
The Oneonta Common Council voted unanimously to confirm a mayoral appointment of John D. Bridal to the City of Oneonta Airport Commission to fill a partial term ending August 2025.
The Oneonta Common Council on a unanimous voice vote approved the mayor’s recommendation to appoint John D. Bridal to the City of Oneonta Airport Commission to fill a partial term expiring August 2025.
The appointment was presented as a concur-with-mayor recommendation and discussed briefly by council members who said Bridal performed well in the mayor’s interview and had already been welcomed and shown around the airport by commission members. One council member said Bridal, a Hartwick College student, “is just jazzed,” and that the commission expects regular attendance: "he's promised to give us...10 meetings out of 12." The council also noted the appointment is to a partial term and that Bridal can be reappointed when the full term is available.
Votes were recorded individually during the roll call. The council members who voted in favor included Mosher Kempely, Walsh Russo, McKeown, LaPauchee, Carson, Harrington, Forrester Rothberg and Mattheson. No dissenting votes were recorded.
The appointment fills a vacancy through August 2025; no additional conditions or compensation changes were stated in the meeting record.
The council moved immediately to its next agenda item after the vote.
