The increase in operating revenue is mostly driven by increased airline rates and charges in FY2026 resulting from a new rates and charges methodology in the bridge airline use and lease agreement. Airline revenue streams increased 48% due to the escalated rates and growth in aircraft activity. Non- airline revenue streams increased 5% due to growth in passenger traffic and increased parking rates. Airport operating expenses increased 24% compared to December 2024 due to the timing of annual employee gainsharing payments. Gainsharing payments were distributed in November in FY2025 and in December in FY2026. When adjusted to include the FY2025 gainsharing payments, December 2025 operating expenses increased 9% because of growth in personnel cost and increased maintenance expenses. Improvement in employee vacancy rate and across the board wage adjustments drove increased personnel cost. The increase in maintenance expenses are driven by increased utilities costs, plumbing/electrical augmented staffing, and elevated preventative maintenance costs. Debt service cost declined 1% in December 2025 primarily because the 2019 refunding bond issuance was paid off. Additionally, in the first quarter of FY2026 the 2014 bond issuance was refunded resulting in net present value savings exceeding $17M over the life of the bonds. Other requirements increased 7% because …

07 C14-2025-0106 - 108 W Gibson; District 91 of 2 Planning Commission: 108 W. Gibson Project Thank you for information provided regarding above. I object to the proposal to basically eliminate Ordinance 20110825-203 and zoning C14-2011-0060. In reading the information provided, the applicant would be satisfied to have the Site Plan (3A) , Commercial Use square footage, of 20,000 SF (likely exceeded at existing site now) (3B), Building Height (would exceed 50’ now in Covenants). In addition, want Outdoor Entertainment and Outdoor Sports and Recreation added. OBJECTIONS: Beneath the above, applicant or property owner would be applying for a building permit if zoning change approved, to allow for a new office/retail building at 1318 S. Congress. The Cove exists at this address at present and would have to be torn down. See attached Architectural Plan 8 as part of the major plan. If approved to build, it would be a major disruption to normal traffic/pedestrian flow at the corner of Gibson and South Congress affecting business restaurants in that area. The height (90-120’) on said building would be totally out of proportion to existing buildings. The addition of Outdoor Entertainment and Sports/Recreation) is very vague as to the intended use. It lends itself to excessive noise for the neighborhood which already has more than enough weekend music available. The applicant did not furnish notifications to all residents of 1401 Eva as required. The applicant’s client (Arena Hall) is currently owner of one of these types of Clubs/Lodges at 1809 Pearl Street and unclear why another is needed. They have reportedly paid $2 Million on two properties adjacent to and near the proposed zoning change request (see 5). This appears to be a HQ’s for an “International Christian Movement for Emerging Leaders” which is not spelled out in any of applicant’s information and will be made possible by a change in zoning for expansion beyond existing zoning. It should also be noted that any addition for Restaurant in existing covenants would preclude that use if for retail sales and not a Club/Lodge. In summary, this application for Rezoning is of no benefit to the local neighborhoods, retail merchants or public in general and would only further create existing congestion in the area of Gibson and South Congress. The application is extremely vague as to the original intent that was proposed. While it appeared as a few harmless additions to the existing …
