DEPARTMENTAL RECOMMENDATION:
The General Services Department recommends the Board of Supervisors approve the reappointment of Frank Padilla to the Nut Tree Airport Advisory Committee to fill the Area Resident with an expiration date of June 30, 2029.
SUMMARY/DISCUSSION:
The County’s approved By-Laws for the Nut Tree Airport Advisory Committee (NTAAC) established on June 22, 2004, identified a five-member committee consisting of a Recreational Pilot, a Business Pilot, an Area Resident, a Pilots’ Association Member, and a Vacaville Business Representative. Each position is appointed for a four-year term.
Frank Padilla has served as the Area Resident member since 2023 and remains a member in good standing. Mr. Padilla’s resume is included in Attachment A. He has expressed a desire to continue serving on the NTAAC. His extensive military and civilian aviation experience are of great benefit to the committee. County staff is recommending approval of this reappointment.
FINANCIAL IMPACT:
There will be no financial effect as a result of the recommended action; members of the NTAAC volunteer their time.
The costs associated with preparation of the agenda item are nominal and absorbed by the department’s FY2025/26 Working Budget.
ALTERNATIVES:
The Board could choose not to approve the reappointment. This is not recommended as the action is consistent with the Board-approved By-Laws for the Nut Tree Airport Advisory Committee.
OTHER AGENCY INVOLVEMENT:
None.
CAO RECOMMENDATION:
