Assembly removes two members from airport board following executive session
Summary
After an executive session on personnel matters, the Finance Committee announced motions removing Ms. Garza and Mr. Custer from the Juneau Airport Board. Both motions were moved by the mayor and carried by unanimous consent when the committee returned to open session.
The Finance Committee concluded a closed executive session on Feb. 5 to deliberate matters related to the Juneau Airport Board and subsequently moved to remove two board members.
When the committee returned to open session, Mayor Mary Weldon moved to remove Ms. Garza from the airport board; the motion carried with no objections. The mayor then moved to remove Mr. Custer from the airport board; that motion also carried by unanimous consent.
Why it matters: Removals from a municipal advisory board change the membership of the airport board and may affect upcoming airport-related decisions. The committee cited personnel deliberations conducted in executive session and took formal action in open session.
What else was said: No additional details about the reasons for removal were released in open session; the actions followed an executive-session deliberation that took place in compliance with public-notice requirements, as staff confirmed.
Next steps: The assembly will follow standard appointment procedures to fill the vacancies on the airport board.
