The issue is one of a gate being left open and unattended; it is the construction gate on Addison Road at the PlaneSmart facility. I know that Dave and Joe have repeatedly told IAM of the need to keep the gate closed and secured, and I believe that Clay has also repeatedly reminded them of their responsibilities in this regard. I am advised that Ritchie Daley of IAM insists that it is “the subcontractors” who have been leaving the gate open, which may well be, but as the prime contractor it is his responsibility to keep the property secured. The relevant part of the Code (cited in the complaint … I think this applies to “off-airport” properties” which PlaneSmart clearly is not) is reproduced below for your convenience. Sec. 14-103. Security. (a) The city manager may at any time require all pedestrian, vehicular and aviation access between the off-airport property and the airport to be controlled at all times using automated controlled-access devices, gate operators, closers with automatic locks or other such reliable devices, or any other means of affirmative control acceptable to the city manager, that serves to continually safeguard the airport from unauthorized access from the off-airport property. The city manager, the airport director, or any other authority responsible for operation and safety of the airport shall have the right to inspect the off-airport property from time to time for conformance with this division and/or the access permit. (b) The city manager, the airport director, or any other authority responsible for operation and safety of the airport is authorized by this division to take appropriate action to ensure the airport is safeguarded at all times, including the temporary override of gates, closers and locks of damaged or otherwise found inoperable gates and/or doors, or the placement of blockades or other types of barriers or fencing material as needed. Such safeguards, when taken, shall be clearly posted and not removed except as authorized by the city manager or airport director. (c) All safety and operational rules and regulations established by the FAA or TxDOT, by any city ordinance, rule, regulation, policy, standard, or permit, or by any other regulatory authority with jurisdiction over the airport (whether currently in effect, hereafter adopted, or as may be amended, modified, changed, or superseded), shall be applicable to each off-airport property. While I too am certainly tired of the gate being left open, I am not convinced that this is the proper way to handle it. Per 14-103(b) -- assuming the provisions of this section even apply, which it looks to me as if they do not – we could have locked the gate if we found it unsecured, tagged it with a “see the airport manager” note, and proceeded from there. What would you suggest? I don’t think we need to get into another dispute with this particular contractor; we’ve been down that road already. However, we do need the gate to be secured per the ordinance.
