    REGULAR AGENDA
    1) Election and Personnel Committee discussion, review, and possible recommendation of the applications received for the YCAA Board of Director vacancies to be presented in the November monthly meeting.

    Gladys Brown, the Airport Director, clarified that for the upcoming year (2027), the YCAA Board of Directors will have four seats to fill. Director Bill Fox will reach his term limit after serving a total of nine years and is therefore not eligible for re-election. Secretary Dr. Brian Cullen and Director Jenny Torres are eligible for re-election and have expressed their desire to be placed on the ballot for consideration. President Bill Craft submitted a formal letter of resignation from the Yuma County Airport Authority Board, effective December 31, 2026. As a result, there will be two vacant seats to fill and two incumbent seats up for re-election. If the incumbents are successful in the election, there will be two seats to be filled by any new applicants. Ms. Brown further noted that this year, the YCAA received three (3) applications.

    The Committee reviewed all three new applications and determined that each applicant is qualified and has no apparent conflicts of interest. Following a brief discussion, the Committee recommended that the election ballot includes the directors eligible for re-election along with all three new applicants. The Committee did not make any specific endorsements, noting instead that all applicants meet the qualifications and that the Board may select those individuals deemed most suitable based on current needs and strategic priorities. All Committee members present were in agreement with this recommendation.

    CALL TO THE PUBLIC
    There were no Public Comments.
