Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport has named Balram Bheodari interim deputy general manager at Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport

Bheodari replaces Robert Kennedy, who announced earlier this month he is leaving the airport. Bheodari will be No. 2 at the airport behind general manager Louis Miller.

Bheodari had been interim assistant general manager for operations, maintenance and security. He will be replaced by Richard Duncan, who has been the director of security.

The airport's interim chief financial officer Roosevelt Council Jr. has been named assistant general manager for finance and administrative services, reporting directly to Miller.

Lt. Gov. Burt Jones — pictured speaking at his first governor campaign rally in August — faced criticism in 2023 for trying to change the rules governing where hospitals can be built, which would have cleared a path for proposed 100-bed hospital on a Butts County development property.
