The city was fined the maximum amount allowed at the time (the maximum
has since been increased from $1,100/day to $10,000/day) for closing
the airport without the required 30 day notice (the closing was legal,
the timing was not) as well as investigated for misappropriation of FAA
funds because of the early closing and had to repay over $1 million.

So when did the airport reopen? Does the mayor pay the fines out of his
pocket?
