l. Minutes of December 2007 Airport Commission Meeting & Approval of Revised
November 2007 Minutes
Motion was made and seconded to accept December 2007 Minutes. Motion passed.
The section referring to the renewal of Commission Member terms was inadvertently left
out of the final draft of the November 2007 minutes. Therefore, the minutes were revised
. and sent out (see section #3). Motion was made and seconded to accept the revised
November 2007 Minutes. Motion passed.
2. Darcy Maag — Rental of Building
This item no longer required discussion, as Mr. Maag withdrew the request.
3. Finalize "Airport Zone"
Bob McGee opened discussion of the Airport Zone Ordinance.
Curt mentioned that there would be a workshop regarding this ordinance on January 22 nd �
2008, at 6 pm at the Caldwell police station. (*Commission Members, see note).
Someone explained that "AD" refers to Airport District, as used on this ordinance.
After extensive discussion, line-by-line, of the ordinance, Commission members came up
with recommendations regarding this ordinance, to submit to the City.
4. Toothman-Orton Update — Chris Pomeroy
Grading and Drainage Plan - New Terminal Area - Rick Collingwood from the
Toothman-Orton Land Development group is assisting Kevin Bissell with the grading and
drainage plan for the new terminal site. Currently Rick is awaiting a revised site plan from
the architect as it was discovered after review that some survey boundaries
• were inconsistent and needed to be reviewed for accuracy. Once the revised plan is
received by Toothman-Orton, the design phase can begin. Once the plan has been
completed, Kevin Bissell will share the information with the Airport Commission.

2008 AIP Grant - As directed by the City, a 2008 FAA AIP grant application has been
completed and sent to the City of Caldwell for signature by the Mayor. The grant
application is for land purchase of Parcel 36b formerly owned by Lemrick Properties,
LLC. Parce136a was purchased with last year's (2007) AIP grant. The amount of the FAA
i AIP dollars being requested in the grant application is $667,638. The total project amount
including the local match requirement is $741,820. This does include Idaho Division of
Aeronautics assistance of 2.5%. Mr. Pomeroy advised the group that right now it is unclear
if the FAA's participation for the 2008 Fiscal Year will require a 5% or 10% local match. �
Per the FAA's request, the application was made out considering a 10% local match
requirement. Any information on this issue will be passed along to the airport when it is
known. Once the application is signed by the City, it will be forwarded to the FAA
for processing
Regarding the airport authorization monies appropriated by Congress, that program is still
in limbo. Chris stated that for now we could expect what we had last year for next year.
Regarding the program that had us gather tail numbers previously, it is still in limbo. The
plan was to justify giving more to airports with more based aircraft, but that plan has
apparently been scrapped and will go back to the same process — giving $150,000 per
airport.
5. Update on Lease Transfer Process
Curt read an email he sent to City Attorney Mark Hilty, reiterating the Commission's
request from last month's meeting, asking for his legal advise regarding timelines and
penalties. Mark stated that he would take a look at it. Curt is still awaiting his response.
� 6. Update on Airport Name change
Curt said the Airport name change is not on the agenda for the City Council Meeting this
Monday. Apparently the Council has discussed it, but it is not known what action will be
taken. Curt did say he would like to see "Industrial" dropped from the name, regardless of
what happens with the name change.
Next Airport Commission Meeting: Thursday February 7 2008.
*Note to Airport Commission Members• Please attend the workshop with City
Council Members to finalize the Airport Zone Ordinance at 6:00 pm, Monday,
January 22 2008, at the Caldwell Police Station.
The meeting was adjourned at 12:55 PM.
