Whereas, we are wanting to create a committee specifically for contract towers and the FCT program that would only handle contract tower issues in their region;
Whereas, we feel contract towers are under-represented at the national level with the current structure of the RVP’s representing contract towers and our FAA counterparts at the same time;
Whereas, the FCT program will have a Nationally standing representative to represent FCT employees with the union (147 Towers); and
Whereas, the FCT program is only getting bigger with new additions each year, we feel this is the most logical next step;
Therefore, be it resolved that The Federal Contract Tower (FCT) Committee is established to represent the Association members that work at these facilities. The committee shall be composed of one active member in good standing from each FCT operator. (E.G. Midwest, RVA/Ci2, SERCO Inc.). The chair shall be chosen by vote of the committee and be designated as the National FCT Representative for the Association. The National FCT Representative shall only be filled by a member who is currently working for an FCT company. The Committee, alongside the Organizing Committee, will work towards representing more FCTs in the NAS.
