Currently, the commission consists of five members appointed by the Lexington County Legislative Delegation, five members appointed by the Richland County Legislative Delegation, and two members appointed by the City Council of Columbia. The bill specifically adds two new members who must be residents of Cayce or West Columbia, increasing the Lexington County Legislative Delegation's appointments from five to seven members. The existing provisions remain in place, including four-year terms, a two-consecutive-term limit, and the ability of the appointing authority to remove members for misconduct.

The bill will take effect upon the Governor's approval, reflecting a desire to provide additional local representation on the airport district's governing commission.
