Citizens to Be Heard
Mr. Rory Paxman of Contour Airlines addressed the Board regarding concerns about the decision to
select SkyWest over Contour Airlines for Essential Air Service. He outlined several anticipated impacts
to the local community, including the loss of four full-time employees, three part-time employees, and
one mechanic position. Additionally, he estimated a monthly economic loss of approximately $18,000
tied to reduced spending on lodging, rental cars, and food, along with the loss of contributions to local
nonprofit organizations such as the VFW and Chamber of Commerce.
Mr. Paxman requested that the Board evaluate the costs associated with retaining Contour service,
particularly for routes to Las Vegas and Phoenix. He also expressed interest in leasing airport space to
continue servicing the Central Utah region and emphasized the need for accountability measures to ensure
SkyWest fulfills its commitment to bring 15–20 employees to the area.

● The board asked how Moab’s PR work balances “what’s new” with “what’s good,”
pushing the team to better spotlight long‑standing operators, milestones, and especially
legacy accessibility providers when big national stories run. Commissioner Martinez
questioned how “What’s New in Moab” content captures decades‑old first‑mover
businesses and whether the media mix unintentionally overlooks established outfitters in
favor of novelty. Lori reinforced that “new” can mean new angles on long‑time operators,

Julian noted the engagement letters seems fairly standard. The turnaround may be a bit
abbreviated, but other than that it's a basic engagement letter. Karen asked about the timeline.
Mike Whipple noted the anticipated April 13th engagement and suggested the trial balances
should be available before that. Commissioner Martinez suggested a firm deadline for materials
so that everyone is coordinated in delivery. Commissioner Winfield noted the importance of
getting the audit delivered on time this year. Mike suggested Friday, April 10th, as the hard
deadline for materials and documents. Commissioner Hadler asked for clarification on the
deliverables from the County. Andy Smith (EMS) asked if the April deadline provided enough
time for a June deadline.
