Who filed the complaint with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)?
Arnie B. Green Associates, Inc., is a private Airport Development Company based locally in Ormond Beach, whose 21 team members have a collective 800 years or more experience in aviation, airport development, civilian and military flight operations, business, marketing, and finance.
Why did Arnie B. Green Associates, Inc. file a complaint with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)?
Airports that receive federal grants and land from the federal government shall make the aiport available for public use and its benefit on reasonable lease terms without unjust discrimination to all types, kinds and classes of aeronautical activities.
The FAA says that the public benefit is not simply met by keeping the runways open.
The City of Ormond Beach has been working in an unreasonable manner to deny the Company reasonable access to the Airport.
What did Arnie B. Green Associates, Inc. allege in the complaint to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)?
The Company alleges that the City of Ormond Beach violated portions of the FAA's grant assurance agreements with cities that operate airports receiving federal funding.
What is the key term?
The key term here is: negotiate. The City is required by the FAA to negotiate in good faith.
The City hasn't and refuses to do that, instead opting to spend our tax dollars on Washington, DC lawyers to fight the company, avoid negotiations and blocking economic development, business growth, and jobs in Ormond Beach.
Why the City of Ormond Beach has to talk to Team Arnie B. Green Associates, Inc.?
While the City is not obligated to agree to our proposal, FAA regulations do require it to negotiate in good faith with the Company and in a manner that is consistent with the Federal commitments it made when the City of Ormond Beach accepted over $5.0 million in federal grants from the United States of America taxpayers for the Airport.
We're not saying that because we're showing up on their doorstep that we are entitled to some type of lease, but what we're saying is they have to sit down and negotiate with us and provide reasonable access to the Airport.
If they don't, the City jeopardizes the Federal investment in the Airport.
What is the next step for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)?
The next step will be for federal officials to determine if they can help bring the parties together. If they are not successful, the developer will be free to file a formal complaint against the City with the FAA Administrator in Washington, DC.
The City could potentially lose over $5.0 million in past federal grants if the FAA finds that the City's failure to negotiate violated FAA regulations.
