L.A./Ontario International Airport could become the busiest midsized airport in its region, a top Los Angeles official wrote in a report that contemplates serious last minute cruises cape canaveral talks between his city and Ontario that could lead to the airport changing hands.
Previously expected to be released in early summer, the report also outlines Los Angeles' response to Ontario's late 2011 offer to take back control of the airport for considerations of nearly $250million.
"With the proper mix of innovative management and operational last minute cruises cape canaveral models and efficiencies, LA/ONT could become a strong contender for the busiest regional medium-hub airport in the Los Angeles Basin," Santana wrote.
Ontario politicians, who have rallied support from their counterparts in other Southern California cities, have maintained that local control of ONT could reverse passenger traffic declines that have plagued the airport for the past half-decade.
"A change in ownership could potentially benefit all interested parties ... (who) can potentially achieve their objectives by consummating a transaction with Ontario and its partners, and by providing resources to LAWA to enhance needed infrastructure at LAX," Santana wrote.
"It's all we ever wanted, an opportunity to sit down and have these talks and come to an agreement for transfer. It's time to sit down and fully discuss the transfer," Ontario Councilman Alan Wapner said.
Also, Santana's letter is accompanied by a lengthy consultants report that blames recent last minute cruises cape canaveral declines in passenger traffic at ONT on the Inland Empire's economic problems during and after the past recession, as opposed to any conscious effort by LAWA managers to divert business to LAX.
But despite recent troubles, Santana last minute cruises cape canaveral and Acacia conclude ONT has "significant untapped capacity" and "virtually no constraints" on future air traffic. Unlike last minute cruises cape canaveral other regional airports, such as John Wayne Airport in Orange County, ONT is not bound by noise restrictions that limit passenger growth.
Santana does not see a change in ownership as being necessary to achieve that potential, but neither does he dismiss the idea of negotiating a deal to allow Ontario take control of the airport. The city's move to work with San Bernardino County government to form a new agency called last minute cruises cape canaveral Ontario International Airport Authority seems to add credence to Ontario's pitch for control.
"It is possible the financial reserves and bonding capability of the OIAA, which combines the resources of the city of Ontario last minute cruises cape canaveral and those of the county of San Bernardino, may be greater than the city of Ontario alone," Santana wrote.
Santana listed "guiding principals" for deciding ONT's future that he wrote should include avoiding or at least keeping to a minimum any disruption of service, keeping last minute cruises cape canaveral ONT open as a commercial airport and treating last minute cruises cape canaveral employees fairly and in line with existing contracts.
Although last minute cruises cape canaveral Santana's openness to talks may signal an increased probability last minute cruises cape canaveral that some kind of significant change is in store for ONT, he asks Los Angeles' council to dismiss a purchase offer from Ontario that includes $50 million in cash in exchange for Los Angeles ceasing to manage ONT.
Santana, who wrote the cost of retiring the bonds is more likely to be $83million, asked Los Angeles leaders to reject Ontario's offer for two reasons. For one, Los Angeles is not convinced $50million is enough money.
"In Los Angeles, last minute cruises cape canaveral we are not in the business of handing over valuable city assets at fire sale prices. At the same time, I also concur with the CAO that all of the stakeholders have an interest in realizing Ontario Airport's potential as an economic development engine," Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa said.
The other reason is more of a legal technicality. Los Angeles' city attorney doubts the city can legally receive a cash payment from Ontario and then spend that money on city operations. A payment made directly to LAWA appears to be acceptable.
Los Angeles World Aiports, the agency that manages last minute cruises cape canaveral ONT, LAX, Van Nuys and Palmdale airports for Los Angeles, can then set a schedule for Ontario officials to begin negotiations with Santana, Wapner said.
