Summary
Ken VanSant, chairman of the Grand Canyon Airport Authority, told the commissioners that repayments to the county began in 2022 and stopped in January 2025 and asked that the remaining $239,000 balance be considered a grant that would not need repayment; the minutes record the request but no board decision on forgiveness was recorded.
Ken VanSant, chairman of the Grand Canyon Airport Authority, told the Board about the airport's importance to the county and outlined past repayments to the county. He said repayments began in 2022 and stopped in January 2025 and asked the county to "consider the balance due to the County ($239,000) be considered a grant which does not need to be repaid."
The minutes record the Authority's request but do not record any motion or vote to convert the balance to a grant. The request was presented during the regular meeting; the minutes list the request as an item for the board's consideration rather than a finalized board action.
