Members Rick Fereday, Merrill Saleen, and Chairman Michael Anderson answered the roll call. City Staff was represented by City Manager Gary Shimun. Also present were Chuck Sundby of Toothman-Orton Engineering, Gordon Colbum of West One Bank, Scott Findlay of Findlay Real Estate, and Joel Drulard of Kerr Surveying. Chuck Sundby reported on the AWOS/ASOS topic. The FAA will not fund an ASOS system, but they will fund an AWOS-3 system. It was noted that the ASOS system is the preferred system, and that an AWOS-3500 system is upgradeable to an ASOS system. Rick Fereday offered a motion to accept the minutes of the last meeting as presented. Merrill Saleen supported the motion, and it passed unanimously. Chairman Anderson moved Item A under New Business to the front of the Agenda. Joel Drulard presented a proposal to change the lease agreement with Flightline Systems to drop Lots C and D. This would necessitate an amendment to the plat filed with the County. Rick Fereday offered a motion to approve the plat amendment as presented. Merrill Saleen supported the motion and it passed unanimously. Shimun presented the Committee with a letter of resignation from Member John Wolfe. Rick Fereday offered a motion to accept the resignation of Wolfe, and to send Wolfe a letter of appreciation for his service to the Committee. Anderson supported the motion and it passed unanimously. Chuck Sundby reported on the status of the Airport Master Plan process. He indicated that Cayla Morgan of the FAA had contacted him as well as Chairman Anderson, and Manager Shimun. Ms. Morgan represented that the FAA believed that an appropriate budget for this project should not exceed $80,000.00. Sundby indicated that the project would legitimately cost $130,000.00, and that a compromise should be negotiated that split the funding into two separate fiscal years to relieve the FAA of its current financial hardship. Rick Fereday offered a motion to move forward with the scope of work, let Carter - Burgess review that scope and determine cost before we argue cost with the FAA. Michael Anderson supported the motion, and it passed unanimously. Chuck Sundby advised the Committee that our contract did not protect us from contractor demands for more money, and that the FAA would not fund any cost overruns for additional costs associated with the late start of the project. The Chair directed the Manager to send the letter to Jacobson that was approved at the last meeting. Rick Fereday offered a motion to adjourn. Merrill Saleen supported the motion, and it passed unanimously. The meeting adjourned at 1:35 p.m. It 7 Michael An erson, Chairman
