III. STATUS REPORTS:
The runway lighting issue was reported as being managed as
proposed in the Nov. 7 minutes. Minimum lighting will be
maintained and a NOTAM has been issued.
IV. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM: The matter of the
lighting was considered and the committee asked that this
item be added to the program. A letter (attached) from
Toothman-Orton suggested certain solutions and the
difficulties associated with those. It was determined to
add this to the list with solutions and costs unspecified.
Mr. Townley and Mr. Fereday agreed to explore possibilities
for US surplus equipment. No other changes to the CIP
were recommended.
V. LEASE AND OPTION, FLIGHTLINE SYSTEMS
Cole Smith discussed his proposal to option all of the
land between the parallel taxiway and the new N-S taxiway
and south of the new E-W taxiway (excluding the Scott lease
parcel). His reason for desiring the option was to
protect his plan from duplication. He showed the committee
pictures of the type of building he intended to
construct, as had been requested. After discussion,
Fereday moved that the city extend a 2 year option on the
property from January 1, 1992 to December 31, 1993 for a
sum of $500 with the following conditions:
1. That by September 1992 construction of a 5 unit
hanger must be started.
2. That the option not be transferred nor assigned
without the city's consent;
3. That if unsuccessful in the development of the
shared hangar concept, Flightline Systems will provide the
city with the results of their market research.
VI.SECRETARY
The Council's suggestion that the committee designate a
secretary to sign the minutes to expedite action on the
committee's recommendations was presented. Fereday was
unanimously acclaimed the secretary for the committee and
was authorized to sign the minutes.
VII.FUEL STORAGE FACILITY:
The matter was discussed and the committee indicated its
interest in locating a fuel facility, used by airport and
commercial operators, on the field if there are no FAA
constraints, if the tanks are horizontal and above ground
and if the facility is landscaped and can secure access and
fire protection. The committee asked that staff discuss
this with our neighbor, Jud DuBoer, local distributors and
FBO's and report back to the committee on any
recommendations. Use of ICDBG funds for the roadway and
water line extension was suggested. Allen was asked to
query FAA about any restraints or regulations.
VIII. OTHER
The Cuddy Mountain Concrete Co. radio tower notice was
discussed. The engineer reviewed the application and noted
no obstruction to aircraft. The staff reported that the
application was returned to FAA without objection.
Dorris noted the number of automobiles on the ramp area
and expressed concern about the safety hazard that this
represents. He asked that fences and gates be installed.
The condition of the budget was noted.
Townley and Miller objected to the city's snowplowing in
front of the old hangars. They asked that it be done as it
was done last year. Staff agreed to investigate.
