A Public Hearing was held on the Petition on Annexation of a part off
Riviera Heights Subdivision.
Mr. Tom Benton presented a slide showing the lots and portion of I{
. !Riviera Heights Subdivision which would be annexed by this request. 'I
He also pointed out the location of the lagoon, which is not in the E
portion to be annexed: In this area requested to be annexed there
are twelve homes and six vacant lots. Mr. Mike Bates stated the �'
'cost of providing sewers to the area would be about eighty or ninety!
thousand and this could not be considered for three to five years. 1 Public
Mr. Dwight Fine appeared for the petitioners - he stated they Hearing -
would like to become a part of Jefferson City, and are interested in Riviera
police and fire protection, the 911 emergency and those kind of ;. Heights
{services. We Understand the sewer line is a number of years away
land that is not on the priority ' list.
Dr. Hart also appeared for the .petitioners - he stated the road
'was seal coat and they would not want asphalt or other topping
'nbecause when the snow is on they need the rough coating. They would
ot want curb and guttering - that would destroy the front property
of the homes. ,j
Mr. Russell Sexton appeared in opposition to the annexation. He
is also a resident of Riviera Heights. He stated he would like to .
be included with annexation but would object to the annexation at
this time. He stated the 'first annexation petition was presented toll
residents of the area as being the entire Reviera Heights Sub-- ;
division and that area would be platted and recorded; up to this
date it has not been filed in Callaway County. The area shown on
the map not included in this annexation has been recorded and 11
platted, but not the portion shown to be annexed at this time.
They say the roadway is eighteen feet wide, Callaway County has 1
7,; !minimum specifications for the road bed of twenty-four feet and ��
right-of-way fifty feet . He stated he would oppose the annexation 1
unless it was for the entire Riviera Heights Subdivision , as was
requested in the first petition, which should be done. j

the petition, the' public hearing would be concluded and the issue 1; .
would come back to the Council in the form of an Ordinance. �'

did not agree to sell all 20 copies at this price as they cost
$35.00 each. After discussion Mr. Verslues stated he would keep 10
copies for business advertisement and would sell the remaining 10 to
us at the purchase price of $35. 00 per copy . Mr. Taylor presented

Utility has offered us the opportunity to buy their counter. They
paid $553. 00 to have it built , plus they incurred cost in having it
brought hero from Moberly and installed. They have offered us the
counter for $300. 00; they still owe us approximately $50. 00 for two
months rent which we could subtract from this price . If we purchase
the counter , and in future a new commuter wished to come in we
could charge rent for the space as well as for tho counter. Dr. Consent

` made by the Mayor' s Advisory Commission pertaining to the Airport . ji
' Y Y Y pertaining p
_, Consent ?;After a lengthy discussion it was decided that Mr. Randolph write !! :,_
Agenda the Mayor a letter presenting the commission' s feelings on the re-
��port and inviting the Myer and any of his advisors who were ;i
linterested, to attend the next Commission Meeting. The concensus of -
opinion was that a definite response to these recommendations be `'
ii made by the Airport Commission. 'i ,i
I�
Mr. Taylor and Mr. Bill. Ward discussed the fact that we have a
('shortage of 100 octane fuel and unless something can be done soon
Jeff City Flying Service will probably be out of fuel to sell , ij
resulting in the laying off of personnel. Jeff City Flying Service
has had an agreement with Gulf for years through Phillips Petroleum.!
Phillips aviation fuel refinery in Texas blew up resulting in a very''
'isevere shortage of 100 octane fuel which is needed by most aircraft .ii
{lMr. Taylor told the commission he has talked with people in
'Washington as have representatives of the Division of Aviation ,
Airport
pMissouri Department of Transportation. They are trying to help us
Commission f,solve this problem. Mr. Ward stated that JCFS has been in contact ":
Minutes with Senators Danforth, Eagleton and 'Representative Ichord; resultinK
in one of them having a member of. the Board of Directors of Gulf
Oil Company speak to the President of Phillips; however, no results.;1
Phillips at present is giving their customers 35% allocation of the !�
jifuel used by them last year and are not taking on new customers
jlwhich JCFS is considered although they have had the agreement with
(them through Gulf. The commission questioned the fuel supply to jl
Industrial Aviation . Mr. Ward informed the commission that they I�
receive their supply from a different source and for 4 or 5 months
they were running out before the end of each month and JCFS had 4
been selling them fuel ; however the last 2 months Industrial has
;made it to the end of the month. Mr. Ward stated that a year ago in
1February, Aviation Fttel was de-regulated and at that time they were
told their fuel supply would end on Juno 4 . As they were having
trouble getting a new supplier they were given fuel on a temporary
III `'basis until August later extended until October 31 and now they are
dtold that February 20 will be their last date. Mr. Ward stated that
Shell and other major companys will not oven talk to them about
Aviation Fuel ; adding that he had an opportunity to get 100,000
gallons of spot market fuel at $1 . 77 a gallon but by the time they
;added a profit margin the cost would be prohibitive to customers.
tMr. Ward was told the Commission would be happy to do anything they
(can to help him obtain it new supplier. '
lMr. Taylor reported to the commission that on Sunday morning
February 10 at 1 : 30 a.m. a 210 Cessna came in (reportedly in heavy t�
fog) and we presume when he landed one wheel hit the runway and
one wheel hit the snow---the plane slid 50 yards before turning on
its nose, bending the wing, radar bubble and all blades on the prop.;
We have not heard anything else. The only injury was the lady
Airport sitting in the back seat who hit her head on the man in front of
Commission her--resulting in a beautiful shinner. Mr. Taylor reported that a
Minutes crane from Bill Otts Sterling Company was called which lifted the
(plane putting the wheels down and moving the plane into the hangar.
O'le have reported this accident to our insurance, and have all the
!information. We do not think we have any liability. The plane
belonged to a couple from Kansas City.
Mr. Bates announced that he has a new assistant director, Martin
Brose, who will report to work soon.
As there was no further business the meeting was adjourned at 1 :25
Ip.m.

;The Mayor discussed the method for future meetings of the City j
;Council and their Committees. He was asking for opinions on the I
'matter. !
I He proposed that the regular Council sessions be held in the Informal
Council Chambers on the 1st and 3rd Mondays of each month, which };Council
!would be formal sessions for Ordinances and such items. Then on Meetings
the off-Mondays, during the spring and fall , and with a limited j1
Agenda of one or two major items, we could take our major issues
closer to the people. In April and May and September and October ,
on the off-Mondays , we moot informally on a rotating basis at the
Elementary Schools - got some publicity and try to get the people ;'
to come out and participate. ;:
. , ID I
Mayor Hartefiold then stated problems were developing with the
Gross Receipts Utility Tax Ordinance which was enacted last July.
The State Division of Design and Construction put in for an F
emergency appropriation - they are not planning on paying the tax. ;1 •
The House and the Senate are upset , particularly from the standpoints
that manufacturers have a Fifteen thousand dollar coiling, and no };
consideration was given to the State for such a coiling or cap - iGross
their contention is that they are far more of an employer than a ` Receipts
manufacturer and should have some consideration. ITax - State
They have drafted legislation to prevent cities from levying 1
this form of tax - they may be receptive to the same ceiling given
to manufacturers, whether you want to leave it at fifteen or raise
it , whatever you want to do. It is worth consideration. ;
Councilman Backers recommended that we go along with the Fifteen
thousand dollar ceiling for the State and Mayor Hartsfield stated 1
he would report to the Appropriations Committee that we would 1
revise the Ordinance to include them in the exemption - but we will }
expect some cooperation on renewal of the Contract with the State 1
for snow removal , etc. !
Councilman Brant suggested that we have the Finance Director I;
look heavily at the receipts so far to see where we stand - and the{
Mayor agreed - we should have a status report. j
The Council adjourned under the rules. !
