The meeting was called to order by President Gary
at 7:00 PM. Present were: Gail Hill, Dave Martin, Craig Cowles, Robert English,
Alan Wright, Kelly Wilson and Andy Andersen.
SECRETARY: The minutes from the
January meeting were posted on the web in February as a draft. Dave Martin moved that the minutes be
approved as posted, and Craig Cowles seconded. All approved by voice vote.
TREASURER: Gail passed
around a balance sheet, up to the minute as of today. She also had a projection sheet for what should be set aside for
the taxiway project, and also a list of all financial movement since January. IAHA
has had three different individuals as Treasurer in as many years, and it
seemed good business practice to verify all was in order. The
QuickBooks file has been gone over by the tax accountant with that in mind, and
all transactions are properly accounted for.
ARCHITECTURE: no new business
to report.
MAINTENANCE: Craig passed
out copies of an estimate from Valley Custom Sealcoating for the projected work
on the taxiway system. He described the
process that they are going to use, reading from the estimate to list each taxiway:
the North/South and Comanche taxiways are singled out for crack filling,
grinding, and bringing back up to full height.
The entrances to Bonanza, Skylane and Musketeer taxiways are on the work
order to be recoated. They expect to
start the work in June or July. There
was some discussion about getting the word out before work starts. Gary asked whether individual homeowners
could contract with Valley Custom to have their taxiway entrance sealcoated at
the same time that the taxiways get done.
Craig said he would ask about that, but saw no reason why they would
not. There was some further discussion
about what specific areas should be done, and Gary said there was plenty of
time to possibly re-evaluate which parts of the taxiway system get
serviced. Dave made the motion that
the contract be approved with a contingency attached of a 18-month warranty on
their work, plus the Board gets the right to make the final determination which
parts of which taxiways get the work. Gail seconded the motion. All approved by
voice vote.
OLD BUSINESS: Gary said he
had met with the water control folks about the flooding earlier this year. He has
also exchanged emails and phone calls with the City
Manager regarding follow-up to the flooding issues; he hasn’t met with them yet
but he is expecting the City to schedule that gathering soon. Some FEMA money has been allotted but there
is no decision about where that will go.
The new City Hall still has issues with drywall and carpeting on the
lower floor. There were some comments
about how much improved the water flow was during the most recent storms.
FOR THE GOOD OF THE ORDER:
Andy said that the next meeting for the committee in charge of the Memorial Day
Pilot Memorial Event held here at the airport will be held next Monday. It will
be at the Library downtown starting at 7:00 PM.
EXECUTIVE SESSION:
After discussion, Dave made the motion to approve a limit of $1,500.00 to
consult with an attorney regarding the continuing problems with one airpark
resident. Gail seconded the motion. All approved by voice vote. Gary said
he would make a rough draft of the letter for the attorney to be taken to him
along with various papers that confirm our position on this issue.
ADJOURNMENT: The meeting
was adjourned at 8:28 PM. Next meeting will be July 26, 7:00 PM, at the EAA
hangar. Respectfully submitted by
Robert Engish IAHA Secretary.
