MINUTES
APRIL 3, 1991
ATTENDING:
GORDON COLBURN
RICK FEREDAY
DUKE NORFLEET
LYNN CLARK
BOB MCKENNA
RICHARD DAVIS
BUD SCHMIDT
1. MANCHESTER HANGAR SUBLEASE: Staff reported that the
Manchester lease problems had been resolved and that the
default was cured. The committee debated the item. After
discussion, Colburn moved to recommend that efforts to
exchange the existing lease for a parcel on the hangar line
continue, that the installation of water service be
approved and the question of the sublease referred to the
Council. Fereday seconded and the motion carried
unanimously.
2. OLD HANGAR LEASE CONDITIONS: Proposed special conditions
for updated leases for the 8 hangars at the airport were
presented by staff. Requiring rental of the ramp area in
front of the hangars, the updating of the lease rates to
current rates and requirements to refinish the exteriors of
the building to conform with new construction and to
require asphalting of the leased ramp area are new
conditions. A matrix of areas and costs was distributed.
This will represent a significant increase in the rental
rates for those hangars. See attachments.
Colburn moved to approve the special conditions and extend
new leases to the 8 existing hangar owners. Fereday
seconded and the motion carried unanimously. Most leases
were adopted in 1986 for a 5 year term. Those which are
expired are on a month -to -month tenancy pursuant to terms
of the lease.
3. CLINT YATES COMPLAINT: The committee recommended
waiving the disputed landing fee of $3.00 and writing a
letter explaining the landing fee to Mr. Yates.
4. OTHER BUSINESS:
A. USFS representative: Bill Williams has retired from
the forest service and has been appointed the warden at
the SITPA office. His position is one to which the
Forest Service recommends a replacement. Duke Norfleet is
sitting in for them this week and for the next three months
or more, Merrill Saleen will the designee. The Mayor will
receive correspondence from Sonny LaSalle on this matter to
formalize this arrangement.
B. AWOS: Due to shipping of wrong test equipment by
Qualimetrics Inc., the technician was unable to certify
the facility and it is out of service as of Sunday evening
March 31. Frank Vetsch will return as soon as the correct
equipment is shipped to return the AWOS to service.
C. County Airport Levy: The committee asked to receive
copies of the staff proposal on distribution of the County
Airport Levy. (attached)
D. Management of Tie Downs: Mr. Davis suggested that
the power cost for the AWOS equipment be estimated and he
be reimbursed for that cost. Staff suggested that a
management agreement be developed encompassing the UNICOM,
weather observation, parking fee collection, and tie down
rental management be developed. The Committee directed
that a draft of such agreement be prepared for their review
and comment.
E. Minimum Standards with each Tie -down Rental: It was
suggested that every aircraft owner who rents a tie down be
given a copy of the Minimum Standards and Airport Code
sections to ensure that the airport rules are known. New
copies of the Minimum Standards should also be posted in
each FBO facility.
Without further business, the meeting adjourned at
approximately 8:30 a.m.

Arthur . Schmidt,
City A ministrator/Airport Manager
Valley County Airport Levy
In prior years, the Commission had elected to award County
funds to the airport which was undertaking an FAA sponsored
AIP (Airport Improvement Project). Last year that process
was altered. For some time there have been proposals to
change that approach to allow for some operation and
maintenance assistance through this levy.
The FAA approach allowed the county money to be matched
90:1. This is the most productive investment of the funds
of course. If coupled with a state grant the match
becomes 95:1, with the state Bureau of Aeronautics picking
up an additional 5% of the project costs.
There are also 50:50 state aeronautics projects funds
available. McCall has installed its airport lighting
under this program. We currently have an application in to
assist in some survey work for the airport.
The prior procedure was arbitrary in its decision making,
fostered poor planning and needs changed.
ALTERNATIVE PROPOSAL:
1. CONTINUE TO ASSESS THE COUNTY AIRPORT LEVY ANNUALLY.
2. ALLOCATE HALF OF THE LEVY, $4500 EST., FOR MATCHING
SUPPORT FOR FAA/ IDOT-BOA SPONSORED AIRPORT IMPROVEMENT
PROJECTS. THESE FUNDS WOULD BE COMMITTED ONE YEAR IN
ADVANCE. IF NOT UTILIZED, THEY WOULD ACCRUE TO THE AIP
PROGRAMS AVAILABLE TO ANY AIRPORT IN THE COUNTY IN THE
ENSUING YEARS. SOME REGULATION OF THIS FUND TO ENSURE THAT
CITY FUNDS ARE ALSO COMMITTED TO THE PROJECT SEEM
IMPORTANT TO ENSURE THAT A LOCAL AIRPORT IS NOT BEING
BUILT AT COUNTY EXPENSE ONLY. THIS MAY MEAN THAT THE
COUNTY CONTRIBUTION COULD NOT EXCEED 2 1/2 % OF THE
PROJECT AMOUNT OR THAT THE COUNTY PARTICIPATION COULD NOT
EXCEED THE CITY'S PARTICIPATION.
3. ALLOCATE HALF OF THE LEVY, $4500 EST., FOR ANNUAL O & M
ASSISTANCE TO THE COUNTY AIRPORTS, BASED NOT ON AN
ARBITRARY HALF/HALF NOTION, BUT ON SOME CRITERIA OF USE,
SUCH AS BASED AIRCRAFT, OPERATIONS PER YEAR, ETC. ONCE
ESTABLISHED, THIS FORMULA WOULD AUTOMATICALLY ALLOCATE THE
FUNDS, ALLOWING CITY'S TO PLAN AND BUDGET FOR THE FUNDS.
Your thoughtful consideration of the above proposal is
respectfully requested.
Cordially,
Arthur J. Schmidt
City Administrator
Airport Manager, MYL

of laboratory density. Base course should be compacted to
100% of maximum dry density and subgrade to 95% of maximum
dry density as determined by ASTD-698 (Standard Proctor).

Dear Doug,
On March 20, I received your current insurance
certificate and letter. On March 21, I received a check,
No. 1038, for $819.48 for fuel flowage fees and this date
have received a copy of an executed management agreement
with Pioneer Aviation for management of the fuel tank at
your hangar site.
Receipt of these items cures the default of which you
were notified by my March 11, 1991 letter to you. Thank
you for your prompt attention to these items.
I am sorry I missed you when you were in town last
week. We need to get together to catch up with one
another.
For your information, I believe that the land trade
will be approved around the end of April. It is going very
well with the State Parks folks.
I hope we can work this hangar thing out with you and
Joe. I do appreciate your willingness to work with us and
hope we can come up with something of mutual satisfaction
all around.
Cordially,
