Ray moved to approve the minutes of June 6, and Gordon seconded the motion. The motion was passed unanimously. PUBLIC COMMENT: None II. OLD BUSINESS: River Ranch Subdivision: Mr. Kirkpatrick distributed copies of the draft Avigation Easement to the Committee. He also distributed copies of the draft Wildlife Mitigation Agreement that addresses increased waterfowl attraction. These were developed from standard FAA recommendations. This was a result of a lot of negotiation with developer, City attorneys and FAA. The first reading the River Ranch Annexation Notice was passed with condition that FAA approves Avigation Easement. Documents sent to FAA for review and approval. Discussion of how long it takes FAA to respond. Mr. Strope will attend an AIP Grant Conference meeting in Seattle on August 20, to talk about pending AIP projects with FAA and the City's airport engineers, Armstrong. There was a discussion of the importance of FAA grants for the airport to survive. Airport Manager Position: Mr. Strope asked the Committee to help with interview questions and for volunteers to assist in the selection. Discussion followed about the screening process and how he arrived at the 10 applicants being considered today. Packets contain qualifications. Mr. Strope would like the Committee to assist in narrowing the list to three candidates to be interviewed. Discussion about the interview process. Bill Keating will be included in the process and Mr. Strope would like some members of the Committee to help. Last time the Committee came up with 3 interview questions. He needs at least one Committee member in the room to help with the interview. He would like to have someone hired by September 1. A meeting is scheduled for Monday, August 6, at 6:00 p.m. to review the applicants with the Committee. Airport Advisory Minutes 8.1.01 Page 1 III. NEW BUSINESS: Recreation Department Office: Robert Strope will move Bob Peckham to the airport. He explained the plans to improve parking and the new entrance to the airport manager building. Arts and Humanities: An opportunity for partnership with City and Arts & Humanities with possibility of their office at the same building. They can access grant funds to pay for office and meeting space. There is a need for a meeting room for airport related stuff. Unresolved issues as to who will pay for the utilities. Mr. Strope wants to be sure this is approved by the Minimum Standards. The Committee's biggest concem is having someone in a Buick driving down the taxiway looking for the A&H building (non -authorized access to the airport). Lori wanted to know what the duties of the Recreation Director are. Bob Peckham is responsible for planning and registration of events, people coming to see him about events or dance classes (as in the past). Mostly administrative functions. Is the hangar owned by the City? Will revenue be coming back to the airport from rent? The utilities will be shared by the Recreation Dept. Mr. Strope said there will not be any net change in revenues to the airport. Arts and Humanities may be charged something for rent but they have a limited budget. Discussion about renting or selling of the City airport hangar for a lot of money - money to be used for matching funds. Lori does not want the hangar chopped up and used for non -aviation activities. Ray is concerned that we may set a precedence and may not be able to, in the future, reject a proposal in the future. Mr. Strope used Toothman-Orton as an example. They lease office space from Mike Dorris. Gordon said that we need to look ahead and see where we will be in 5-10 years. A lot of things going on and we need to look at the long-term effects. Once we get someone in, it would be hard to get them out. Mr. Strope said, "It is not my intent to have him there on a permanent basis." (Referring to Bob Peckham.) Improvements to the parking will be passed on to the new airport manager. Gordon would like to see sign put up to prevent traffic on the ramp from airport managers entrance. Jenny Keiser-Ruemaule, from Arts and Humanities, said there would be 3 to 4 visitors a day to the A&H office. Most tickets are sold elsewhere. Classes are 5 to 10 students. The season is July 4, to mid October with two Autumn 1-day workshops. About 20-hours a week in the office. Lori feels there is a Minimum Standards conflict. Something to think about is the season; busy airport traffic. She wants to go on record that she is against the Arts and Humanities office at the airport — she does not endorse it. The hangar could be used for something better. Robert said the new fire station will have to be built before we can sell or change the use of the hangar. Ray does not want to get locked in to anything long-term. Gordon asked what is temporary? Robert informed the Committee that Steve Conley is interested in transferring his lease. He is in default and was issued a letter this spring. He indicated that he wanted to build a hanger and asked for an extension to build it. The extension was for June 1 to September 30. If he wants to build before September 30, fine. If he wants to transfer the lease that is OK, the City cannot withhold the lease transfer. What should new lease cost be? The lease should be based on the covered ground rate. New mixed lease rate should be about $1,100. He has had 5 years to build and the City has lost about $600 in revenues because he has not built a hangar. Gordon said lease extensions should include the covered ground price. Airport Advisory Minutes 8.1.01 Page 2 Lori asked about the airport sign — can we get it back up? Jerry asked about the airport budget for FY2001-2002 — what is in the new budget? ADJOURNMENT: Gordon made a motion for adjournment at 7:20 p.m. and Ray seconded the motion and it was passed unanimously.

Members Present: Lori MacNichol Ray Franz Jerry Robinson Gordon Eccles Staff: Bill Keating Lindley Kirkpatrick Attending: Marilyn Arp Mike Dorris I. CALL TO ORDER AND ROLL CALL: The Chairman called the meeting to order at 6:06 P.M. and declared a quorum present. Lori moved to approve the minutes of the May 2, and Ray seconded the motion. The motion was passed unanimously. PUBLIC COMMENT: None II. OLD BUSINESS: River Ranch Subdivision: Mr. Kirkpatrick gave a report to the Committee. River Ranch Subdivision is on the agenda for the City Council meeting June 7, but the Council may not take any action at that meeting. It may be deferred to June 28, meeting. Written comment period was open until Monday, June 4. Marilyn Arp said this is a policy setting, anyone can comment. FAA has not given the City anything in writing at this time. We told them the City has to process the application; have to give the application due process. The River Ranch Development Review: We have presented the City's position to FAA and they have not acknowledged it. Conditions and what FAA was misinformed about and the City's informative gathering process . FAA has stopped work on AIP projects. Mr. Robinson — Received a letter from AOPA and FAA, asking and he asked Lindley if Mr. Deboer was issued a conditional use permit. Discussion of Annexation. Zoning R10 in county. P&Z subdivision plat, conditional approval. First condition of approval was annexation and zoning request be approved. No permits have been issued as of yet. Ray said FAA is against the subdivision as designed. Lori asked if is it a misconception that the conceptional idea has been approved. Lindley said the City is required by Constitution and Idaho Code to at least consider the application. Gordon thinks that the way the FAA is looking at the application is that the City has a requirement to protect the airport. Maybe the FAA doesn't believe we are. Marilyn Arp informed the Committee that Council's direction was to go back to FAA. They need to put in writing that that the mitigation will comply with FAA requirements and wishes. Lindley said the City has sent a letter to FAA to let them know that the City wants to work with FAA, would like to schedule a meeting, and they would like to work out any differences. Airport Advisory Minutes 6.6.01 Page 1 The Issues are wildlife, noise, aviation easements, and long-term wildlife hazard mitigation. During subdivision review process the City is restricted on what it can impose. Decision has to be tied to City code. During zoning request we have few limitations on what we can improve. Jerry asked if there is anything we can do to put the aviation easement In the code. Lindley said that through the rezoning it can be required. Discussion followed about FAA jurisdiction of both City and County. Ray stated how shocked he was at the last meeting about how far these things had progressed before the AAC was contacted. Lori wondered if Toothman-Orton Engineering mentioned to the City that this would very important to FAA. Airport improvements take years to put together and to get these projects done. Ray told the Committee about a lawsuit, in Naples, Florida, to shut down the airport for noise. Jerry would like someone form the City to draft a letter and take it to the Commissioner for future airport issues. Lindley said the County has a copy of the file. III. NEW BUSINESS: Hangar Set Backs Discussion about the interpretation of building codes for hangars and firewall set backs. Lindley quoted the 1994 UBC that was adopted by the City. It cleady states that an aircraft hangar is an S-5 occupancy. S-5 is written that within 20-ft of property line a wall has to be one hour rated construction. Lindley and Bill Housdorf (building inspector) confirmed this with State Fire Marshal's office. Lori said most hangars are 10- ft to 20-ft apart, why are we the only people in the State that has interpreted the code this way? Dave Sparks agrees with the State Fire Marshal. Lindley stated that the City would need full support of the local fire marshal to lower the requirements. Lori commented that currently there is a problem with several owners who want to build hangars. It is perceived that McCall is not friendly in approving these projects. Gordon asked if there is no Intention in looking at what has been done elsewhere? Lindley explained that it would not reduce the level of protection that is required. PUBLIC COMMENT: None Airort Manager Position Mike Dorris commented that the City should hire someone local for the position. Someone with roots here that would stay longer. Mr. Keating presented a letter drafted by Robert Strope, City Manager, regarding the City's plans to hire an airport manager. ADJOURNMENT: Mr. Robinson made a motion for adjoumment at 7:25 p.m. Mr. Franz seconded it and the motion was passed unanimously.

Merrill Saleen seconded and the motion carried unanimously. Public Comment Robert Strope, City Manager, explained that one of the Committee members publicly endorsed one of the engineering firms that are in contention to be the airport engineering firm. This endorsement was at a public meeting of another organization. After consulting with the City Attorney it was decided that the Committee's scoresheets should be collected and the information will not be used during the selection process. He thanked the Committee for their efforts but he can not take the chance of exposing the City to litigation. Merrill Saleen wanted to know when this was decided. The City Manager explained this was only determined as the course of action this morning. Pat Dorris felt the minutes from the last meeting gives the impression that MCCall Air Taxi was needlessly creating a problem with Salmon Air and presented only Salmon Air's side. Pat Dorris expressed concem about the number of flushes that Salmon Air would have if they were flying as many passengers as they claim. This could present a problem with sewer capacity. Business Dew Aircraft - Plans for summer fuel sales and car rental: Doug Walberg briefed the Committee on his plans to begin fuel sales this summer. He feels that he meets all current Minimum Standards for such sales. Merrill Saleen asked if he had a formal plan to present to the Committee.

Then: were no further questions or objections stated. Action: The Airport Manager will keep the Committee informed of status as the summer season begins. Public Comment Period: No comment. Review Future Airport Projects: Jerry Robinson explained his desires to have the Committee review the project list and possibly change and add some additional projects. Merril Saleen noted the Committee has looked at the projects and had input during the Master Plan update. He also questioned were the matching funds would come from if the AAC gets too aggressive in pursuing the grant money. Ray Franz asked if any of the fire fighting money was available for airport projects. Merril Saleen, after composing himself, explained that the additional funding was already earmarked for fire related projects. The Airport Manager explained that any new engineering firm selected may have new ideas about project priority. Jerry Robinson explained the need for the new access road behind the hangars. Action: None Public Comment: Mike Dorris wanted to know what was going on with the plan to improve the sewer at the airport. Marylin Arp explained that the Council is saving 50k per year in the hope of upgrading sewer at the airport. Mike Dorris feels that lack of sewer infrastructure is holding up progress at the airport and the AAC should pressure the Council. Marylin Arp is in favor of the project and the Council may need to be brought uo to date on the project. ---n Adjournment Lori MacNichol moved to adjoum. Ray Franz seconded and the meeting was adjourned at 12:50 PM. air City of McCall Date: March 7, 2001 To: Airport Advisory Committee Cc: City Council, Airport Manager From: Robert Strope, City Ma RE: Engineer Selection Based on the information in the attached e-mail, I am planning to collect all packets from your committee relating to the airport consulting engineer. The City will not include your preference scoring or ranking of applicants in our selection. We are taking this action because of the comments made by one of the members of the committee in a public meeting and the potential for the appearance of impropriety that this raises and to preserve the integrity of the process we must error on the side of caution. The City will not consider any lobbying efforts on behalf of any candidate in our selection process. The City will base the selection solely on the criteria outlined in FAA Advisory Circular 150/5100-14C. The City will consider all applicants who responded to the solicitation within the required time frames. On behalf of the City I would like to thank you for your efforts, and regret that we must take this course of action. McCall City Manager rrom: Joe Mallet Vimallet@micron.net] ent: Tuesday, March 06, 2001 7:35 PM o: citymanager@mccall.id.us Cc: David H. Bieter; Susan E. Buxton Subject: Airport Advisory Committee Dear Robert: In response to your question regarding the procedure for selecting a design professional for the airport, please consider the following. You should follow the Idaho Code section 67-2320 procedures when hiring a design professional for a specific project. When you refer to a pool of three applicants, I am assuming that their names are a result of this Sec. 2320 process. If they aren't, you should go back and start that procedure. Assuming you have followed this procedure, Idaho Code section 67-2320(2) requires that you select the most highly qualified individuals from the application pool and rank them in order of preference "pursuant to the public agency or political subdivision's established criteria and procedures." I understand that your Airport Advisory Committee was going to offer some advice as to who should make the "short list." Of course, that function is unnecessary since the total pool consist of only three applicants. The City should proceed to rank the applicants in the order of tference according to the procedure and criteria you already have ,,,;tablished and made available, and then attempt to negotiate with the ' highest qualified person. It has come to our attention that a member of the Committee has invited members of the public to attend a committee meeting and express support of one applicant. Because of this, we suggest that you do not consider any preference scoring or ranking suggested by the committee in your decision. The solicitation of public support for one applicant by a member of the advisory committee raises several concerns. First, it creates the appearance that the committee member voicing support for the candidate has already made up his mind and will not apply the required criteria impartially to all the applicants. Secondly, it suggests your "advisory" committee is improperly being allowed to exceed their authority and actually participate in the final decision making process. Finally, this raises the appearance that "popular sentiment" will be considered, instead of the proper criteria, to select a design professional. All of these concems create an appearance of impropriety that could taint the selection process and possibly nullify the final result. For the above reasons we suggest that you make your selection without consideration of the Airport Advisory Committee's recommendations. Also, hen making your decision, you should take extra care to make a record of . e specific criteria you apply and your analysis under each. Under the circumstances, you should also specifically state that you did not consider any lobbying efforts on behalf of any particular candidate in arriving at i your decision. If you have any further questions or concems, please feel free to contact ur offices. Joseph D.

Gordon Eccles seconded and the motion carried unanimously. Public Comment There was no open public comment. Business Salmon Air Hangar: Lori MacNichol reviewed the AAC concerns with the lease and the Minimum Standards requirements. JoAnn Walters briefed the AAC on her intentions to increase business at the McCall Airport. She has advertised but due to weather and other problems the flights have slowed. She pointed out that Salmon Air flew 2000 passengers in and out of McCall last year. She plans on more flights in the future and may upgrade to regular commuter service. She has hired Zane Mangum as her agent in McCall. She acknowledged that she needs someone in McCall during the winter months. Lori MacNichol asked if Zane Mangum is in fact an employee. JoAnn Walters explained that he is an employee and she does not have a lease with Zane Managum. She noted that Scott Patrick • uses McCall Air Taxi to drop off passengers and she purchased the hangar after she was told she couldn't use Pioneer's building. Dan Schroeder stated Salmon Air has been in McCall for 40 years and has endured a great deal of stress due to McCall competition. He noted that McCall Air Taxi can't handle all the business and they need each other. Merrill Saleen explained that the real issue is the Minimum Standards and not business issues. JoAnn Walters wanted to know what the problem was. Merrill Saleen explained that this was a get together to review Minimum Standards compliance. Lori MacNichol noted that the equipment stored in the Salmon Air hangar isn't aviation related and the hangar space is needed for aircraft storage. Dan Schroeder noted other hangar owners store non -aviation equipment. JoAnn Walters asked if the AAC wants Salmon Air to remain on the airport. She also stated that she is considering selling fuel and having rental cars. Zane Mangum wanted to know where the public is supposed to park and the Airport Manager explained the public parking lot was available to everyone. JoAnn Wolters explained that Zane Mangum would be moving in the spring. Merrill Saleen doesn't believe there is a problem with Salmon Air meeting current Minimum Standards. Ray Franz and Gordon Eccles agreed that no problem exists with Minimum Standards. Action: The AAC requested the Airport Manager withdrawal a request for the City Attorney to send a letter requesting Salmon Air explain Minimum Standards compliance. Public Comment Period: No comment. Lease for Ed O'Gara Lot #17: The Airport Manager explained that Ed O'Gara would like to lease Lot #17. He would begin building in the spring. Lori MacNichol made a motion to recommend approval to the City Council. Merrill Saleen seconded the motion. The motion passed. Action: The Airport Manager will place the lease on the next City Council agenda. Public Comment: No comment. Airport Intersection: Jerry Robinson had requested Bill Keating, Public Works Director, attend the meeting. The Airport Manager stated that he had requested that Bill Keating attend but the City Manager, Robert Strope, decided to attend instead. Jerry Robinson wanted to know why Mike Anderson received a copy of the engineering plans and Mike Dorris had not. Jerry Robinson noted that the changes at the intersection have hurt Mike Dorris and his access. Jerry Robinson made a motion to provide better access. There was no second on the motion. Lori MacNichol asked the City Manager to address the issue. The City Manager noted that the current lane meets the Idaho safety codes and was designed by the engineers so as to meet these requirements. He stated that no additional access will or can be inserted. Jerry Robinson asked the City Manager to sit down with Mike Dorris and talk about the intersection. The City Manager noted that the City had paid for the City Engineer to attend a special meeting with Mike Dorris. He noted that Mike Dorris failed to attend the meeting. He stated once again that no additional access will be installed and asked Jerry Robinson what the issues was. Jerry Robinson feels that a great deal of traffic is dumping off of Hwy 55 on to the tarmac. Mike Dorris stated he didn't know the City Engineer was coming up. Jerry Robinson feels that there is a lot of friction at the airport and the City Manager should sit down with Mike Dorris. The City Manager explained how frustrating it was to arrange and pay for a meeting that Mike Dorris failed to attend. The City Manager explained that he isn't unreasonable but the access on Hwy 55 is a safety issue. He suggested that something could change on Deinhard Lane. Ray Franz suggested improved signage at the entrances. Mike Dorris stated that he couldn't get anyone to address these issues. He has the Master Plan, which shows the additional intersections. The City Manager stated the changes are not on the Airport and was required by the State. Mike Dorris wants to get along but stated he leases to Manchester's fence and could block the access. He doesn't want the public mad at him and he may go to the City Council. The City Manager suggested that that might be a good idea since the intersection is beyond the authority of the AAC. Jerry Robinson asked the City Manager what the chances were of getting the sewer line finished. The City Manager stated that it wouldn't happened in the near future but is on his long-range plan. Jerry Robinson feels this is an important issue. The City Manager doesn't feel it is that high a priority item. Action: The Airport Manager will install signage and order new signs for installation in the spring. Adjournment Lori MacNichol moved to adjourn. Gordon Eccles seconded and the meeting was adjoumed at 2:10 PM. C*,e4,74Z Chair /�� cretary
