Explanation
§ Passengers traveling through Charlotte Douglas International Airport unintentionally leave items in public spaces throughout the Airport.
§ On November 23, 2009, City Council adopted a resolution allowing the Airport to donate unclaimed property after 90 days.
- North Carolina General Statute 160A-274 authorizes the City to donate unclaimed property to non-profit organizations.
§ Since adoption of the 2009 resolution, the Airport passenger traffic has greatly increased, resulting in more misplaced items.
§ The revised resolution would amend the Airports authority to dispose of items after 30 days, versus the current 90-day timeframe, greatly reducing the time required for management and storage of lost items.
