Council approves extending airport advisory board voting to county residents
Summary
Ballinger council voted to extend eligibility for the airport advisory board to countywide registered voters, citing county use of the airport; the resolution passed by voice vote.
The Ballinger City Council voted to extend voter eligibility for appointments to the city's airport advisory board to include county-registered voters.
During discussion, members noted that people who use the airport live outside city limits and that including county voters would broaden the pool of interested community members. The chair summarized the motion as "Simply approving the resolution to extend it to the county," and the council carried the resolution by voice vote.
Council members also noted they have countywide and citywide registered-voter lists available to identify potential appointees, and the item drew no recorded dissent. The council indicated it will follow up with appointments after confirming names and eligibility.
