Cedar Rapids Landing Fees Raise and United Lease Dispute
Cedar Rapids would see landing fees rise from 43 to 67 cents per 1000 pounds. United sent a signed lease, but on June 20 the commission rejected two points and would not sign. The panel objected to altering the boarded passenger base and disputed the proposed one sixth reduction in exclusive-use space, which would save $15,000 annually.
