Minutes of the October meeting were approved as read.
Tor reported that the L.P.V.approach area addresses all obstacles around the Airport.
Don S. suggested that we try to purchase the former Big Sky Aircraft building.It was
unanimously approved.
Discussed the possibility of raising hangar site leases 1 cent per square foot-It would cost an
average of about $45.00 per year per hangar.Considerable objections were voiced.Redding
demanded a copy of our budget and was given one
Poehls questioned if we should be budgeting on the "high side".It was explained that we need
to accumulate "matching funds"for the new crosswind runway as repairs are costing more than
our share to build a new one.
Redding stated that we don't need a crosswind runway and wants the Quonset left unlocked.
We will have a special meeting with hangar owners in the "old hangar"area on January
14,2009.They must have certified engineers approval.So far only Poehls has made any effort to
comply so we will probably have our attorney issue eviction orders.
No meeting in December.
Meeting adjourned at 2015.
