Meeting Archives
- Proposed 22-23 budget is on the agenda
- The budget summary provided to the public excludes depreciation expense – this is not in accordance with GAAP*. Depreciation is a real expense and should be shown in accordance with GAAP*
- Budget (including depreciation) shows operating loss for both airports of almost $1.2 MM!
- Operating loss for Oxnard is $1.5 MM
- OXR budget includes $1 MM for a new fire truck (ARFF). The only reason this truck is needed is because OXR maintains an approval for passenger service (known as a Part 139 certification). Since passenger service is no longer provided – and hasn’t been for 14 years – does this significant expenditure make sense?

Time: 6:30 pm
- Proposed 22-23 budget is on the agenda
- Improvements to Campus Park – the park is located close to the airport/within two airport protection zones so the Authority needs to sign off on this development
- This development is east of the airport – further from the airport than Teal Club or Portofino – and thus is in the area where plans are generally descending at low power. As such noise is not a major concern
- Positive to see a use other than homes this close to the airport
- The issue of lead from low flying planes descending to land over a public park should be looked at
- Improvements to Campus Park – the park is located close to the airport/within two airport protection zones so the Authority needs to sign off on this development
* GAAP – Generally Accepted Accounting Principles – “The purpose of GAAP is to ensure that financial reporting is transparent and consistent from one organization to another.“
