• Tim Cochrane's application to the City Council for the open

o The Committee will prepare a letter to the Council on its
recommendations (a 50'-wide taxiway and the C-II-300'—
taxiway relocation distance).

printing of the approaches is expected to be complete this month
(Rwy 34) and next Spring (Rwy 16).
3) AIP 16 final construction report from T-O has been received.
Grant Amendment # 1 provided additional funding, which was
used to provide an additional inch of coverage on the last taxiway
being worked.
4) Runway Reconstruction,. Summer 2010:
o The pavement geotechnical report was received from T-O.
o The design implications are that they will do a 2" roto-mill,
then a leveling, followed by a 3" overlay. The north end
(distance extending about 500'-1,000'), with the frost heave
damage, will require a full depth reconstruction.
o Roto-milled material will be used for shoulders. Due to its
good oil content, and with rolling it will make a solid surface
which will help will snow removal operations. Edge drains
(now an FAA mandate) will connect into French drains or a
"daylight" run-off.
