Wildlife hazard site visit complete; staff seeks more responses to stakeholder survey
Summary
A wildlife hazard kickoff and survey were completed; the wildlife biologist (Stacy Grove) will compile a report summarizing observations and recommending attractant-reduction measures. Staff offered to extend the survey deadline and to accept phone responses for stakeholders who cannot use the form.
Staff reported that a wildlife hazard kickoff and site survey took place May 30 and that wildlife biologist Stacy Grove documented observations. Speaker 2 said the final piece of documentation needed is the wildlife hazard stakeholder survey, which had been sent to commissioners on June 28.
Speaker 2 asked commissioners to return the survey and offered to extend the deadline to encourage additional responses. They said that people who cannot complete the form electronically may call instead and that staff would help gather answers: "If it's easier to call, anyone is welcome to call. I can extend if you want to extend the survey to the end of next week." Speaker 2 emphasized that partial responses are acceptable: "I would rather have 10 people respond to 6 questions each than 1 person respond to all."
The wildlife biologist will compile a wildlife hazard site report that summarizes observed wildlife and attractants and will provide recommendations to reduce wildlife frequency at the airport. Staff encouraged pilots and airport personnel to share observations by email or phone to help populate the report.
No formal action or vote was recorded on the wildlife item at this meeting.
