The Spokane Airport Tenants Association was formed in 1994 by the tenants at Felts Field as a way to further
the interests of the airport with the Airport Board, elected officials and the airport staff. After successfully
negotiating new leases for Felts Field in 1998, SATA was dormant until 2007. During that period, Dick Perry, Bill
Buteux and Dave Lucke kept the organization alive and we thank them for their efforts and foresight.
SATA held a general meeting in March of 2007 with over 100 people attending. At that meeting, we elected a
new Board of Directors and the Board subsequently elected officers who agreed to serve for the coming year.
We have agreed on a mission statement for SATA that explains our purpose and will guide our actions. It is:
|
|
To protect and promote the viability of the Spokane Airports by actively engaging elected officials,
Airport Board Members and Airport Staff to secure fair and just leasing policies,
rational development of airport properties, and safe and sound airport operations. |
|
Our airports are an important community asset and collectively we have a responsibility to ensure
that community decision makers understand the value of the airports and have the information
needed to make enlightened decisions. |
