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. Res ectfu- s ed, 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 Special Conditions Airport Hangar Lease Name 1. The City shall not plow snow within 10 feet of the front of the hangar.

The aggregate base course should be placed on a suitable compacted subgrade material (CBR greater or equal to 10). The natural sandy, silty gravel in the area is normally suitable for subgrade material. Pavement should be compacted to a minimum of 97% 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). Other surfaces, e.g. concrete cement may be acceptable surfaces but must be approved by the city in advance of installation. 4.
