Dave Powers reported on the fire district. He said the value of the hangers at
the Laurel Airport would cost the owner about $178.42 per year or 11 mills to
have fire proctection at the airport. The City of Laurel Volunteer Fire De-

would be the better plan. Each owner would have this billed through the lease

fire protection and the air plane owners using the tie down areas would have fire
protection without paying for it.
