Airport committee seeking new member

Douglas County is currently accepting applications for appointment to the Airport Advisory Committee.

The application deadline is 5 p.m. Feb. 5. Interviews and appointments will be made at the Board of County Commissioner’s Meeting held Feb. 18.

On Jan. 7, county commissioners appointed Susan Goda, Shawn Meehan and Russell Smith to the panel that advises Minden-Tahoe Airport’s management.
