To provide continuity for research, items are in agenda order although not necessarily discussed
in that order.
ITEM 1 - -
Call to Order 3:00 p.m. at City Hall
ITEM 2 - -
Minutes Approval January 6, 1999
Mr. Roper moved to approve minutes of January as submitted, it was unanimous.
ITEM 3 -
Tenant Report/FBO
Mr. Curt Morehouse, (Mr. Emshoff is out of town) gave the tenant report which is
attached to the minutes of this meeting.
ITEM 4 - Runway/Taxiway Lights Update
Mr. Morris had pre-construction meeting contractors, there were no items in dispute, but
had to extend the funding deadline with the State to which they agreed. We will get the full
120 days to meet contractor terms. He will start in approximately 6 weeks and it will take 6
weeks to finish. Actual construction will not start until probably Mid-March. Mr. Benjamin
thanked everyone for their effort in getting the project approved.
ITEM 5 -
Airport Master Plan Update
Klaus Palinkas with PBS&J (Post, Buckley, Schuh & Jernigan, Inc.) gave update
information on the master plan. PBS&J is about 70% through the data collecting phase. They
are also updating the interim airport layout plan to show the development that is possible
based on direction from Mr. Morris. The next step, after they complete the data collection will
be the formal drawing and then forecasting. He brought a sketch which is imposed on top of
the old Griner master plan from 1988. It shows the location of the new hangar development
and improved FBO terminal with new parking and new access, new tie downs and some apron
improvements on the southend.
A question was asked if there were plans on a tentative basis for new hangar
construction on the small northern triangle preceding the larger one? Mr. Palinkas indicated
maa0299 1 02/03/99
“no” because of difficulty of the building restriction line and apron safety area which are
governed under FAA. Another question asked was if the existing shade hangars could be
moved up the small northern triangle area? If they are 20 feet high they would not be in
compliance with FAA rules. In this conceptual plan we would be adding the T Hangars where
we have the hard stands, so that actually we would lose existing space without picking up the
northern triangle area.
Mr. Palinkas also stated that there was not a red letter date but that we are operating
under an ASAP assumption. Engineering and architectural design needs to be in place and to
the state, John Roller (District Rep) will have put his stamp of approval on them. There is
$700,000 in reserve for the construction plus the State funds. Mr. Palinkas will continue to
update the board.
Mr. Benjamin asked Mr. Morris to check into getting the safety overruns okayed by the
city as the board wanted to run the long range plans and the safety overruns together. Mr.
Bahnick is the project engineer and is running these projects. Mr. Morris will ask where he’s at
with these items.
ITEM 6 -
“Open House” Plans
Mr. Benjamin stated that this usually happens in May, during the “Fun & Sun” fest with
the city. There needs to be someone in charge of the preparations. The FBO should be
involved and Mr. Bahnick.
ITEM 7 -
Other Business
The automatic gate code was supposed to be changed, as of this date it has not been
done. Mr. Morris will check into this.
Last time there was a question of parking, if as a tenant you rent a space you can
park in that space. Customers need to be informed of the rules in the lot, where and how they
should park.
CAP program is still there, but there is a prohibition against putting a building up. Mr.
Morris is working on a solution.
Mr. Carassas stated there were no new legal issues. Mr. Morris is talking to citizens
and letting them know how things are going which is alleviating a lot of the phone calls
concerning night landings.
There is nothing new with the Keene Road extension.
rd
Mr. Carassas stated for the record that elections are due at the March 3 meeting and
th
the new chair and vice chair will take over at the April 7 meeting.
ITEM 8 -
