rates established are based on the City's budgeted operating and maintenance expenses and <br />,< debt service, which are found to be comparable to rates charged in other jurisdictions. (2) For <br />security reasons, the FAA mandates that airports monitor and control automobile parking <br />around airline passenger terminal buildings. The purpose of the program is to keep <br />unattended vehicles from parking close to the passenger terminal. City staff at the airport has <br />found that communication with customers is more effective in accomplishing the desired <br />results than writing parking citations. If customers are uncooperative, then parking citations <br />are issued as a last resort. Wholesale issuance of parking citations at high volume flight times <br />will not achieve the security goal and will alienate customers using airport services. The <br />additional revenue generated by writing more parking citations would offset airline operating <br />costs at the expense of a more effective method of managing curbside parking and security. <br />This matter was discussed at the June Airline Rates & Charges Meeting and, with the <br />exception of Horizon Air, all parties were generally in favor of the current procedures for <br />curb parking control. However, Horizon Air favored the airport writing citations rather than <br />working with customers to get vehicles moved.

I find that the airline signatory and non-signatory/scheduled/unscheduled rates set forth <br />in Sections 2, 4, and 5 of the Airport Fee Schedule should be revised as proposed, the other fees set <br />forth therein ratified, and Administrative Order No. 58-98-13-F and the Airport Fee Schedule <br />adopted therein repealed, as of the effective date of this order. <br />On the basis of these findings, I order that: <br />1. Administrative Order No. 58-98-13-F and the Airport Fee Schedule adopted therein <br />is hereby repealed, as of the effective date of this order. <br />2.
