Comments by Executive Director – Mr. Hennessy stated that he and the Executive staff had the opportunity to go to Washington, DC to meet with the delegation pushing for funds for the ACE facility that will be provided for LSUA and CLTCC.

Mr. Hennessy stated that next month the Board will be provided with information regarding housing and rent increase. Mr. Hennessy stated that he was continuing to track the remaining legislative bills.
• H. Staff Report –

1). Financial: Ms. Steiner stated that March first we went live with the automative parking. The $40,000 in revenue that is seen in the financials is just the money that was taken in during the month of March while the system was still accepting cash payments and parking attendants were still there. Ms. Steiner stated that from now on, we will get retroactively paid for what Premium takes in. Ms. Steiner stated that in May all the revenue from April will be seen. Ms. Steiner also stated that the total for March should be $96,000. Ms. Steiner stated that the Air Park revenue is 1.8% over the annual budget, and 6% below budget on expenses. Steiner stated that through the course of this exercise, she discovered that military members can actually request reimbursement through DTS instead of us, so we are able to recognize quite a bit of revenue from that. Miss Steiner stated that we should see a decent increase due to that alone. Mr. McPherson asked if there was still a live person since there was a hybrid system. Ms. Steiner stated after the month of March staffing was reduced, but there will be a full-time employee maintained for now.. Ms. Steiner stated that the attendant would be doing license plate verification as well as parking lot duties and assisting anyone that needed help with the system. Mr. McPherson asked if it was normal to have an automated system, and still have a live person. Ms. Steiner stated that she did not foresee this being permanent, but just until the system had been running for a while. Mr. Weems asked about the payment methods. Ms. Steiner stated that you can pay by scanning a barcode on the phone or by using an app that can be downloaded. Mr. Laverne asked what would happen if the payment was not made, Miss Steiner stated that the camera would catch you on the way out and send a parking ticket in the mail. Miss Steiner also stated that there was a pay machine by the exit if you would like to pay there also.

THE ENGLAND ECONOMIC AND INDUSTRIAL DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS REGULAR SESSION APRIL 25, 2024

2). Air Traffic: Mr. Hennessy stated that generally everything has been increasing either month over month or year over year. He stated that Delta is on the uptick same with American. Mr. Hennessy stated that looking at the charter flights, it’s a little different due to rotations that happen 8 to 10 times a year.

• A) Airline services Mr. Hennessy stated that Delta is adding their third flight in June. There will be another military rotation in May. Mr. Hennessy stated that our operation count is up, and fuel sales are also up. Mr. McPherson asked if a connection was still trying to be made with a small carrier. Mr. Hennessy stated that they met with United two weeks ago in Chicago, and that another meeting is scheduled mid- May at an air service conference.
• B) ACE: No report.

3). Economic Development/Operations: Mr. Broussard stated that it was an average month for operations. Roughly 97 service calls last month 77 were residential, 18 were commercial and two were ISB. Mr. Broussard stated that there have been almost 50 events completed at the Community Center and there were several high schools that hosted their proms there this year. There are 12 scheduled events for the remainder of the year and 25 events scheduled for the next fiscal year. Mr. McPherson asked if the Community Center was under market being that it was successful. Mr. Hennessey stated that they were looking at it and moving forward in the budget making process a rate sheet would be provided for the board. Mr. Weems asked if we were below market currently, Mrs. Sheri Scallan stated that rentals are currently running between $1,550 and $2,000 pending on how many guests. She stated that the base rental is $1,250, and that the rental fee needed to go up. Mr. Spurgeon stated that a commercial dishwasher needed to be added to the facility. Mrs. Scallan stated that she did have a meeting with a vendor the next day. Mrs. Scallan also stated that food warmers were requested by both renters and caterers, renting the space. Mr. McPherson asked about the amount of work that needed to be done at the housing vs a rent increase. Mr. Hennessy stated that it was being looked at for the upcoming fiscal year. Mr. Laverne asked about the condition of the homes, Mr. Broussard said that they were in good condition.

Mr. Hennessy said that he had one last item. Mr. Hennessy stated with the improvements to the ordinances and modifications, there would be one more round to go before the board. Mr. Hennessy asked if it would be better to have a special meeting specifically for the ordinances, or just leave it and roll into the board meetings after. Several of the board members had different opinions about the time, Mr. Hennessey stated that it would be discussed closer to the time of the meetings.
