Airport financial health and enterprise fund status
Summary
The airport finished the fiscal year 11.6% above budget on revenue and doesn't cost the city anything — it's self-funded and its surpluses legally stay at the airport. It's a win for taxpayers, but the airport still struggles to fund big capital projects like a $4–5 million parking lot repaving.

Impact analysis
Revenue finished about $2.5 million, 11.6% over budget, with surpluses kept at the airport — no city subsidy needed.
Riverside taxpayers, since the airport operates entirely on its own revenues.
