| Mission Statement
|
| The mission of the Airport is to provide for present and future aviation infrastructure needs of general aviation, military aviation and air carrier aviation. The mission of City Shop is to maintain Boise City's vehicle rolling stock at a free market equivalent level of service and cost. |
| |
| Trends, Issues, and Opportunities |
 | Since Sept. 11 Airport operation and capital costs have escalated due to the increase in the number of police officers and operation specialists as well as security measures that have been implemented. |
| Our personnel costs also have increased (and are projected to continue to increase through FY 05) due to the addition of new FTE's associated with moving into the new terminal which is significantly bigger than the existing terminal. |
| Our Use and Lease Agreements with airlines allow us to increase fees to cover our costs. However the financial stability of the airline industry is questionable as several carriers have filed for bankruptcy reorganization or are teetering on the brink. |
| We believe our costs will flatten out over the next two years while our revenue will increase with new concession programs as well as projected airline and tenants increase. |
| City Shop has adjusted their rates in order to attempt to break even (they have broken even in the past, but have not covered their Debt Service). |
| City Shop has been successful in attracting outside revenue such as Garden City and Meridian Police Departments now bring their vehicles to City Shop to be set up. |
| |
| Two-Year Budget Highlights |
| Requested Airport M&O increases as well as FTE additions are primarily due to moving into the new terminal. |
| |
| Accomplishments |
| Phase I of the terminal expansion was completed in June 2003 and Phase II is expected to be completed in July 2004. |
| Airline Service:
Big Sky Airlines added a daily non-stop flight to Missoula, MT, in July 2002;
Alaska Airlines began Seattle service June 2003;
North American Airlines will offer weekly nonstop service from Boise to Maui beginning November 15, 2003. |
| The third runway was completed and opened to military traffic November 2002. The $5.2 million runway was funded by the U.S. Air Force and is used exclusively by the Idaho Air National Guard. |
| With the events of 9/11 the Airport has increased security and added staff. The additional staff includes three bomb-sniffing dogs that assist the police officers in providing security for the traveling public. |
