Airport board approves leases, lease-application form and overtime; directs study on manager role
Summary
At its Feb. 24 meeting the City of Livingston Park County Joint Airport Board approved several administrative items: minutes, a month-to-month storage/hangar lease, a standardized lease application (as amended), and overtime pay for a county employee who plowed the field. The board also directed a study into hiring an on-site airport position.
The City of Livingston Park County Joint Airport Board on Monday approved a package of routine and administrative actions, including a month-to-month lease for a tenant, adoption of a revised lease application form with edits, and payment of overtime to a county employee who performed snow removal.
The board voted, after motions were moved and seconded, to: approve previously distributed minutes; authorize a month-to-month lease for the storage area used by a tenant identified in the meeting as Austin Ten (approved so the tenant can retain access while a separate proposal is developed); approve the City of Livingston Park County Joint Airport Board lease application as amended (board members asked staff to add clearer wording to distinguish ground leases from county-owned hangar leases and to remove any draft fee structure); and approve payment of overtime for county employee Theresa for snow-plowing shifts generated by recent storms. In each case board members moved, seconded and voiced “aye”; no ‘no’ or abstentions were recorded in the meeting transcript.
Why it matters: the actions tidy up the county—s lease intake process, preserve an operating tenant—s short-term access while a separate hangar proposal is evaluated, and cover personnel overtime costs tied to heavy winter operations.
Details and next steps: the Austin Ten lease was authorized month-to-month at the current rates pending review of a separate hangar construction proposal and structural review; board members asked staff and county finance to bring any related lease changes back to the board. The approved lease-application form will be finalized by finance for posting, with language edits requested by board members to clarify the difference between ground leases and county-owned hangar facility leases; finance will implement the edits and post the document as a draft until formally adopted. The overtime approval covers hours Theresa accumulated performing airport snow removal; finance will process overtime per the county payroll rules.
Board members said the approvals were intended to reduce processing delays and ensure accurate lease rates and contact information are captured before leases reach the board or county commission. The board also directed staff to prepare budget information ahead of the upcoming budget cycle to reflect these items.
