County Agreed To Airport Commission Nominee

Koochiching County is allowing a vacancy on the International Falls Airport Commission to be filled.

County commissioners have agreed to accept the city's nomination of Paul Nevanan, but only for the remainder of this year.

Commissioner Wade Pavleck says they want a review of how members are selected before committing to a longer term.

Some commissioners are concerned with Nevanan being on the board, suggesting he'd be in conflict with others he now reports to as head of the Koochiching Economic Development Authority.
