Friday Wrap Up - Charlotte Douglas International Airport Edition

CDIA Deputy Director Smoking Gun - There is a lot of finger pointing going on over the surprise move by Jerry Orr to free his airport from the grips of Charlotte and the potted plants known as Charlotte City Council.

But Cedar Posts has been telling you for months that a mutiny was underway. As far back as December 2011 CP posted details about the move to free CDIA from City of Charlotte control and the all out turf war between Orr and CMPD Chief Rodney Monroe. CP's post about Rodney vs Jerry is here.

A review of Airport Advisory Board minutes makes no mention of plans to wrangle control of the airport away from the city, but clearly the move was being discussed behind closed doors.

The straw that broke the camel's back was the Monroe power grab of control of the airport police. CP's prior post of Chief Monroe's memo to City Manager Ron Carlee is here.

Now a recording of Deputy Manager Herbert Judon has surfaced where Judon reveals that the plan to form an Airport Authority was well underway back in early August. The recording provided to Cedar Posts is from the August 23, 2012 staff meeting. CP's prior post about Herbert Judon is here.

No surprise to me, the airport has always belonged to Jerry Orr. I promise you when he retires, if he retires if not when he dies, you are going to find out stuff that is mind blowing.

Smoking Gun? Why? Not much content to it.

Hey CP - you dont have a hair on your butt if you dont post the entire conversation or are you trying to protect someone - maybe a former Airport Police Captain who recorded it? Did she ask a baited question - hmmmm?

Sound unethical? I always heard she was a piece of work.
