Board: Discuss an additional $5K in AWS litigation funds.
Board Motion: “Approve the appropriation of $43,338 for Cox Environmental for an updated site work plan and additional drilling/testing groundwater wells, as required by the Alaska Department of Environmental Conservation, for the contaminated site abutting Airport-Coastal/Loken property; up-front funding provided by Airport Fund Balance and repaid through an insurance claim through CBJ Risk Management.”
Terminal Building Maintenance Tech I was vacated by an employee who was promoted to another vacant position. The need is in custodial now. By deleting the Maintenance Tech I position (Range 10) and filling an extra custodial position (Range 8), there will be a savings in the pay differential of approximately $8,000/annually. This is an administrative change that does not require Board approval or additional spending authority.
With the recent vacancy of the Deputy Airport Manager, staff looked at the needs of the Airport and to reallocate staffing. Rather than filling the Deputy position, duties could be covered with an Airport Security Manager and filling a current full-time (vacant) Architect/Engineering Assistant/Flex position.
Airport Security Manager. At the November Board meeting, the Board was briefed on a need for a Security Manager. The Board motioned to approve the position; however, staff did not have the costs and position description detailed. Based on the vacancy of the Deputy position, no additional spending authority is requested at this time; it is only a reorganization of staffing. This is an administrative change that does not require Board approval or additional spending authority.
Heavy Equipment Mechanic II. The COW approved the justification for the Heavy Equipment Mechanic II, based on immediate need. The Airport has 40 pieces of technical heavy equipment to maintain and 20 attachments; preventative maintenance is not done routinely. Most time is spent on repairs and getting equipment back on-line. Another full-time mechanic to assist with preventative maintenance and lubing would help keep equipment running and within manufacturer operating requirements. This position would need to be funded through the Airfield cost center rates/fees.
Board Motion: “Approve the addition of a Heavy Equipment Mechanic II position.”
