Re: October 5, 2000 Commission Meeting
Those present were: Airport Mgr., Curt Hawkins, Commission Chairman: Dr. Roy
McGlaughlin, Commission Members: Ray Caldwell, Bob McGee, Phil Fouts and from
the Caldwell City Council, Mike Gable. Visitors include: Jim & Anita Shore, Lee &
Doris Rice, John Gray, Ralph Sword, From Toothman Ortin: Tom Lemenager, from
Idaho Dept. of Aeronautics: Wayne Pickeral.
Dr. Roy McGlaughlin called the meeting to arder at 12:07 PM. The minutes of the
previous meeting were approved. Items from the agenda and others that were discussed
included:
1. The Airport Commission recommends to the City Council the old Sky Dive building
be removed from the airport by the process of advertising for bids.
2. Wrap up of the BBQ was discussed with a rundown of how many people donated for
the BBQ. A big thank you to Jim and Anita Shore for all their help in arranging to
have the BBQ at their establishment.
3. Discussion at length about a zoning ordinance one half mile from the runway sides,
extending one mile off each end of the runway counting the runway extended to
7,200 feet. The Airport Commission would like the ordinance to read "no zoning of
R1, R2, R3 or other noise sensitive entities to is to be within this `buffer zone'. Also
in this same "buffer zone", in case of an accident, we feel it would be dangerous to
have a day care center or hospital. Between one half mile and one mile we
recommend Avigation Easements, Disclaimers and Releases."
4. Tom Lemenager from the engineering firm of Toothman Ortin gave a presentation of
the next phase of development which will be around one million dollars. This will
include finishing the taxiway by the old Sky Dive bldg., opening up more area along
the South East end of Aviation way for commercial building and filling in the drain
ditch.
Mike Gabel brought us up to date about the new road from hwy. 20/26 to the airport.
The possibility of another turf farm was discussed with access from somewhere other
than using our taxiways.

5. Lee Rice explained the fuel tanks he has leased from the city: liners were installed
and a monitoring system put into place to detect fuel leakage. Curt is to chat with
Gordon Law to see if it is legal to leave the present system in place.
6. Ralph Sword was introduced. He wants to move a pole building onto the airport for
use as an aircraft hangar. Commission members did not think a pole building will
pass the building code, but if it will and if we can find a place for the structure in the
North West section of the airport where it will not look too much out of place it will
be accepted.
Meeting adjourned at 1:05 PM
