Recommended Action/Motion:
recommendation
Adopt Resolution authorizing the Director of Transportation to act as the Little River and Round Valley Airports Sponsor’s official representative and to sign Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Entitlement transfers from either County airport to Nevada County Airport up to the amount of $300,000 on behalf of Mendocino County (Little River and Round Valley Areas); and authorize Chair to sign same.

Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
By Resolution Number No. 15-091 (June 16, 2015), the Board authorized the Director of Transportation to act as the airport sponsor’s official representative and to sign all necessary applications, grant documents and FAA entitlement transfers from either County airport to the other on behalf of Mendocino County. By Resolution No. 16-050 (April 19, 2016), the Board authorized the Director of Transportation to act as the airport sponsor’s official representative and to sign FAA entitlement transfers from either County airport to Garberville Airport up to the amount of $300,000 on behalf of Mendocino County.
Summary of Request:
Each year entitlement funds are apportioned by FAA for the Mendocino County Department to fund capital improvement projects at County airports. If not expended or transferred, the funds expire after three years and revert back. On September 30, 2016 (the end of the federal fiscal year), $300,000 of these funds for the Little River and Round Valley Airports will expire. Round Valley Airport does not have an FAA sponsored project this year and the current project at Little River Airport will not use all expiring funds. These funds could be transferred to another eligible airport. Humboldt County previously requested Mendocino County transfer expiring funds to the Garberville Airport to help fund a capital improvement project; however, before that transfer was made that project received full funding. Nevada County has now requested Mendocino County transfer the expiring funds for a project planned for construction this year at Nevada County Airport. The Director of Transportation requests the Board authorize him to sign one-time FAA Entitlement transfer from either County airport to Nevada County Airport up to the amount of $300,000 on behalf of Mendocino County.
Alternative Action/Motion:
Deny authorizing the Director of Transportation to sign FAA entitlement transfers to Nevada County Airport, allowing any unexpended funds to expire.
