SCOTTSBLUFF, Neb. (AP) - The Scottsbluff airport director has been taken off paid administrative leave and put back to work.
The Scotts Bluff County Airport Authority Board voted Wednesday to reinstate Raul Aguallo. He'd been put on leave in January after allegations were made to the board. They were turned over to the Nebraska State Patrol for an investigation.
"I've been working in airports for the past 18 years, so I'm happy to be back to work," Aguallo said after the meeting adjourned. "I'm glad the board had faith in me, because the investigation found no wrongdoing on my part."
His reinstatement includes a 60-day probation to address some policy changes.
"I've learned you have to have paperwork for everything," Aguallo said. "You have to track everything because there will also be people who misinterpret things."
