Lukens Full Board Date: 01/12/2021 Requesting Department: Community Development/Airport Budget: Budgeted Agenda Number: Suggested Motion: (State the following exactly as it should appear in the minutes.) Move to accept and consent to allowing Foster Swift Collins & Smith PC, the county’s corporate counsel and separately, the Muskegon County Airport’s fixed base operator’s counsel, to represent both Executive Air/FlyByAir and the County of Muskegon to resolve lease and related issues. Summary of Request: (General description of financing, other operational impact, possible alternatives.) The county’s corporate counsel, Foster Swift Collins & Smith PC, is also counsel to the airport’s fixed-base operator, Executive Air/FlyBy Air. This presents a conflict of interest in resolving certain non-adversarial lease and related issues between the two parties. A Conflict of Interest Waiver can be prepared and signed by both parties to allow the firm to resolve these lease and related issues. If the relationship between the two parties becomes adversarial, Foster Swift Collins & Smith PC would withdraw representation of both parties and both would be required to engage other firms to resolve any issues.
