Airports Authority Names Johnna Spera Senior Vice President and General Counsel
“Johnna Spera was appointed senior vice president and general counsel, a position she has held on an interim basis since February,” posts Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority in AviationPros.
“Spera, who served as deputy vice president and deputy general counsel before stepping into the acting general counsel position, brings more than 30 years of experience to her new role as chief legal officer for the Airports Authority. Her selection follows an extensive nationwide search process.”
“After joining the Airports Authority in 2009 as associate general counsel, Spera focused on Phase one of the Silver Line Metrorail construction project. In the 11 years since, she has led the legal efforts for Project Journey, the $1 billion capital improvement project at Reagan National, revised the Airports Authority’s contracting manual, negotiated numerous revenue-producing easements and licenses at both Reagan National and Dulles International airports and handled legal aspects of the Airports Authority’s $236.5 million sale of its western lands parcel at Dulles International.”
