The air traffic control tower at San Carlos Airport will remain operational after air traffic controllers reached a wage agreement with their employer, preventing the tower from shutting down. This agreement comes after previous resignations over contract disputes raised concerns about public safety, particularly due to the airport's proximity to the heavily trafficked San Francisco International Airport. San Mateo County Supervisor Ray Mueller emphasized the importance of having air traffic control for safety reasons and thanked Congressman Mullin for facilitating the resolution with the FAA.
"You just cannot have an airport, San Carlos Airport, functioning in close proximity to an airport that sees the type of traffic that San Francisco airport has."
"Our office has received word that RVA and the air traffic controllers have reached an agreement and the San Carlos airport will be staffed business as usual going forward."
