Summary

Council voted unanimously to transfer $50,000 each in 2022 NPE airport funds to Hood River (4S2), The Dalles (DLS) and Newport (ONP), after staff explained transferring unused airport funds avoids FAA restrictions that accompany accepting funds locally.

Myrtle Creek — The council unanimously approved a motion on Aug. 6 to transfer 2022 NPE airport maintenance funds of $50,000 each to three regional airports.

City Administrator Lonnie Rainville explained that accepting and using certain airport maintenance funds locally would extend the City’s agreement with the Federal Aviation Administration and bring FAA restrictions; transferring unused funds to other airports is an available alternative. Staff identified Hood River (4S2), The Dalles (DLS) and Newport (ONP) as potential recipients.

Councilor Susan Harris moved to transfer the funds; Councilor Diana Larson seconded. The motion passed unanimously.
