All board members were present.Visitors attending the meeting were Terry Fatzinger, Steve Romines, Mary McKamy, Bob Redding, Rich Sanford from Bridger, Montana. Correction to the letter Herb Olson received from Don Hackman City Clerk concerning workmen's compensation; was not from the State Workmans Com- pensation but City of Laurel. Dave Powers reported on his findings of the fire district. District does- not want to take in any new members. They are the only fire district that borders the airport that we can join. It would appears that if the Laurel Airport wants fire protection they will have to creat their own fire district. Dave stated that this would cost about 10 to 15 mills per 1,000 market value of the property involved. The other option would be to contract for fire protection from O'Donnel fire service. It appears the cost would be about the same either way. Bob Redding objected to the fact the hangers would be paying the entire cost of the fire district. The tie down area should pay part of the cost as they are receiving fire protection as well as the hanger owners. Dave Powers would try to bring some cost figures to the next meeting. Stormy reported on the repair station. He stated that would be certified as soon as the mechanic (Dan) brings his books up to date. Dan is a certified A & I machanic and is manager of the repair station now. He stated that he intended to be open from 8 to 5 six days per week.. Herb stated that he felt we should put the responsiblity on the fix base operator and insist that he keep the business as required. Gas should be available twenty fours a day if necessary. The board instructed the secretary to write a letter to Keith Fitchett and explain the lease agreement to him and if he doesnot live up to the agree- ment we will terminate his lease and negotiate a lease with some one else. ary Wyman reported that the relay contact has been replaced on the regulator and the lights have been working every night.
