Ordinance No. 6820 authorizes modifications to various sections of code related to the Auburn Municipal Airport. In 2019, the City of Auburn modified the management structure of the Airport to move away from contract management services to management by city employees. The modifications proposed are to complete the facilitation of this structural change. In addition, there were identified sections of obsolete code and areas needing clarification, improving the organization of the code, and simplifying the code related to airport management. The draft Ordinance 6820 reviewed by Council on May 10, 2021 included additional revisions related to Airport operations that have been moved to a separate ordinance for technical legal reasons, see Ordinance 6821 for additional information.
A summary of the revisions for Ordinance 6820 are as follows:
Repeal Sections:
2.18, Airport Supervisor
12.56.010, Airport Supervisor Defined
This position no longer exists and is not necessary to be listed in the code in this specificity.
