McCall Air Taxi would accept to~soil for landscaDine along their northern and eastern perimeter. UNICOM: The City has in the past held the UNICOM License. McCall Air Taxi has proposed to become the licensee, re- lieving the City of equipment, maintenance costs, and future license problems. It is not essential that the City be the licensee. The policy decision is whether the City should re- tain the license or should abandon an interest in holding that license. Further, since its licensing this radio, which con- stitutes some benefit to an operator, has been installed and operated by Pioneer Aviation. If the City elects to OFFICE OF THE CLERK BOX 1065 McCALL. IDAHO 83638 retain ownership of the license, it may be appropriate to have each FBO make a proposal/bid to operate the radio advisory service. Criteria might include hours of operation, license maintenance, equipment maintenance, cash payments, etc. Note: The paperwork to apply for the license is on my desk. I will not mail the documents pending Council action. 7. NDB Update: On Friday, May 8, 1987, Bureau of Aeronautics staff will be on site to undertake preliminary engineering on the beacon. Phase I of installation is scheduled for May 13 14. No frequency assignment has been received to date. Respectfully submitted, ~r thur~ - Schmidt OFFICE OF THE CLERK BOX IO65 MCCALL, IDAHO 83638 May 5, 1987 ATTN: Vicki Schraener Torrey Enterprises 7979 Ivanhoe La Jolla, CA 92037 Dear Ms. Schraener: Enclosed is the revised hangar lease. You will notice that it does not authorize installation of a fuel tank. You have advised us that you intend to develop an operating agreement with a McCall FBO. At such time asr that agreement is in place¥ the fuel tank may be installed under the FBO's management and control. We are eager to limit the number of fueling locations and tanks at the air- port. The one non-FBO fuel tank (Evergreen) now at the air- port is under FBO management. I hope this minor variation in approach is not a seri- ous obstacle.~ You will note that the letter of FAA approval of the plan is enclosed. Also, on your site layout, you should consider the snow shedding of the ~oof onto the parking area. Moving the building to the North to better align with the exist- ing building would resolve the matter. I am sorry for the delay in forwarding this material to you. Sincerely, /z~ Arthur J.
