ASSUMPTION
Officials of the Missouri Department of Transportation assume there would be no fiscal impact .

Officials assume that this proposal would require 19 members for an increase of 2 members. Officials stated that the members meet once per month or 12 times annually. Each member receives $35 per meeting. Therefore, this proposal would cost the airport authority an additional $840 annually. Officials assume this proposal only changes the membership of the authority and the way that they are appointed. Officials assume there would be no financial or taxing authority changes and expect no changes or fiscal impact to the City of St. Louis

DESCRIPTION
This act re-establishes the Missouri-St. Louis Metropolitan Airport Authority. The new airport authority would assume the governance of Lambert-St. Louis International Airport. Nothing in the bill would change ownership or financial accountability of the airport. The financial and accounting functions would remain with the City of St. Louis and any profit from the operation of the airport would also flow to the City.
The Governor would appoint the members of the authority upon recommendations from the local chief executives. Members would require the advice and consent of the Senate. Members would be as follows: ten from the City of St. Louis, five from St. Louis County, two from St. Charles County, one from Jefferson County and one additional member may be chosen by the chair from another state. The members of the authority would annually elect their chair on a biennial basis. Members would serve staggered terms of four years. The act also removes the restriction against members of the authority being employed in the aeronautics industry.
This act has an effective date of January 1, 2006.
This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
