Santa Monica Mayor Tony Vazquez Reaffirms City's Determination to Create a Fixed-Based Operation

October 27, 2016 1:18 PM

“On Tuesday night, City Council affirmed our commitment to running a fixed-base operator (FBO) service to replace the private operators Atlantic Aviation and American Flyers at Santa Monica Airport by authorizing the hiring of up to 25 new employees. The City must create a public FBO to ensure the Airport breaks its reliance on general funds and repays the City the $10M+ it owes Santa Monica taxpayers. Our goal remains to have the FBO operational by the end of the year, or as soon as practicable.”
