 first item on our agenda as always is our public invited to be heard first chance of the meeting would anyone like to speak please Melinda you know the rules but for the record if you can start with your name and address you've got five minutes oh and leave I will get the mic on thank you Melinda Jordan 11 10 to impeach circle long month just a little air show update there's it's been everybody's kind of been doing their own stuff and it's been a little bit quieter I had reported that we had the big meeting with Saint Rain Valley School District Innovation Center that's still moving along we'll have some questions about their involvement that we'll address at our next meeting specifically about drones because that's a big part of their program and I don't know if there's anywhere any way we can do anything with the drones even inside the Big Hanger it came up in the past but I don't remember what the official word was but you know they've got a huge drone program and so if nothing else they'll be demonstrating what they're using in their tools and their their program for that and then so the next the tentatively scheduled next air show meeting live will be January 20th Saturday at 9 at either leave eyes office in the conference table or we'll see if we can go over to public works but we'll aim to be over at the airport I've got my request into Brianna to make sure she's available that day but that seems to be the day that would work we don't have a Super Bowl we don't have any air shows Pikes Peak regional air shows tickets gone sale on the 30th if you thinking about going it is worth it is an amazing show that's in August so really a cool one to go to and you get a lot of ideas at that Malcolm was successful in getting a hold of the Longmont Police explorers so we finally got them engaged and they'll know about the meeting and now he's he had a call back from the sheriff's so we're making everybody's making progress and then this January meeting will really be the big come to the line of all the documents everything lined up for people to start really reporting in and start dialing in the details in the first quarter at the within that I noticed the green beacon while it was out but Levi said he's working on it got mud on his boots and that is all I've seen from airport road in my car thanks you guys thanks Linda I wasn't gonna call out Levi in his socks but since you did we'll take that like I said Tennessee style tonight anyone else like to speak at our first public invited to be heard all right seeing no one I'll move on to approval of the November 2023 and our special meeting minutes does anyone besides me have any revisions to the minutes I'll go through mine then all right so I've got on meetings for November 9th page one line 21 this is Melinda's comments it's noted there as Alpa looking for liaison I don't think it was the pilots unit I think that was a OPA the aircraft owners and pilots Association AOPA that same one shows up on page three on line eight two times on line eight as well in Bob liner's comments and then on page two of that same same meeting line 25 Harold sit the city manager's name is misspelled and I would just put his full name Harold is in the notes for making sure we're clear and then for my November 28th special meeting I have three misspellings on page two line 15 that should say that I proposed to put Malcolm the number one spot not purposed line 18 last word should be applicants and then line 21 last word name is misspelled mr. Salamateen my last name is built miss built on line 19 thank you they make want to go through every other time I see your name but I figured you just did that does anyone else have any other revisions

second seconded by board Mars Halamateen any discussion all those in favor say aye aye any opposed motion carries thank you updates from the airport manager all right updates I'll go through these I guess one of time then it I'll pause for for comment or question I spoke first update I got for you guys moving forward with doing preparatory planning for 2024 projects I'm going to get some engineer grant money projects moving forward right now wildlife fence definitely happening gonna get that completed on the airfield finally so that'd be great currently in the middle of assessing what we want to do with the pavement rehab project originally I was planning on going on in 2024 or it may still what we're assessing right now is cost benefit of also looping in the rehab project on the asphalt runway on the east side that kind of connector not runway taxiway I should say if we want to do those projects at the same time we may have to push it off to 2025 or also but we're currently seeing if we can just bump up that other project to get it done in 2024 along with the pavement rehab project so literally just meeting with the engineers this morning and reassessing pavement out there to see how we want to think of buying those two projects to potentially make things more efficient save money so those are the two big engineering projects that are moving on the field right now I guess I'll loop in all of the potential products going on right now mentioned doing some working on the beacon also working trying to find some electricians willing to work on the airport signage light we got a few signs out there out it's not light bulb it's not electricity it's looking like the signs are hidden age where the transformers are starting to go bad on them so we got to figure out how to get those replaced out there and kind of last project going on there for right now just last week had a conversation with an engineer to do an assessment of the master drainage for the south side of the airport that is going to be done so we have a clear picture of exactly what the city would require for any potential development on the south side of the airport so we can tell people when they come in when built hangars what would be required or so we as the city and the airport knows what needs to be required to be done so we can plan that project ourselves that is ongoing right now we had meetings last week without there was a site visit and we're moving forward with kind of the discovery phase of it all if you will we're gathering documentation and seeing how that proceeds forward those are the projects on the airport right now any questions on any of those you mentioned the south side there's lots of open area in the airport like the west side as well with this drainage or potentially looking into development look at all the open areas or just the south side it's so the way that the drain of the airport is kind of laid out it's really kind of naturally separated into north and south because of the runway and how things are divided in the flow and the slope of everything the north side of the airport is pretty much kind of set and the buildings that will be there and the drainage ponds that will be there and it seems to be operating in a normal capacity the south side is kind of not set there's no building so that's really the only focus point that we need to do because everything on the north side is working fine mr. shook isn't there are still issues with his name McKinney I know there's a hangar right next to me that's kind of a separate that's kind of a separate little project I've been looping that one in with the pavement rehab project so the drainage is going down the ramp seems to be not draining into that field correctly on that connector that goes into the ramp all the way down to that drainage pond the public workscrew is actually out there last week widening that but we also did walk that with engineers to see if when we do that pavement rehab if that all needs to be widened to decrease the backflow and the flooding in that area too that will be assessed as part of that pavement rehab project okay I can't remember if I reported last time or not we did have the complete the survey on the airfield we have a complete nice six page partial survey on the airport so now it's very clear what's what on airfield all of that was pinned which means that when they did that survey they took big giant chunks of rebar out there and pinned all the corners so now we need to go back with the metal detector at least we have some chance of finding what they they identified so that's very nice that was requested by our surveyors here at the city excited to have that our engineers are also excited to have that because they were essentially gonna have to do that for these projects that we are coming forward next year anyway so that's one thing we can check off our list for all of that so that's really good any question on survey mr. shook so this survey encompassed every leasehold yeah that was pretty much all the parcels on the airport that survey I'm trying to think what includes it's pretty much a it's doesn't have things like contours or drainage or anything like that that's it's separate but that was essentially if you all like a property map so it's all the parcels everything like that it also included you know all the exact locations of the corners it included you know where the fence is the property line the airport proper and then it had an aspect of it which was a visual aspect so they marked all of the you know that the perimeter road and etc etc etc and the difference between the gravel what was grass was parking a lot was asphalt stuff like that so do you think that if a tenant came in and said I I believe my leasehold has more footage than it really does is that map going to be a good source for being able to identify the that it'll be pretty good that map is kind of if you will the surveyors and their record searching kind of their best knowledge of you know what everything was when they dug into it all so that is kind of our overall lying master map if you will and more to the point and the reason that we had it created was now moving forward all partial maps will come from that map so not not only is it a good reference now but it'll actually be the master we generate new maps from instead of just a Google Earth image image with a red block it'll actually come from the master map now all right there is a an individual potentially interested in sub leasing the hanger below my office I've been working with recently his name is Mike Hale he's interested in bringing a helicopter school to the area he seems to be part of the remnants of what have heliops was down in KBJC they that company folded a while back a couple months or so now he's moving forward with negotiating with Chuck on a sub lease and I've also been working with him to make sure he's meeting the requirements that the city were to request of him that's more of an informational thing yeah any questions on that potential business coming in okay pavement rehab sub lease recently completed a review complete review of airport leases that's something that the interim manager Jeff Coleman began of course as many of you know when David passed away kind of left a void of information at the airport and stuff like that Jeff Coleman did a whole lot of groundwork on that one things he started out was putting together all the information on the leases date dates of you know when they're due stuff like that been working on that for about a year now had a heavy push of a really deep audit about the last two or three months that's complete we're getting some very very good data some very good spreadsheets now that are clean and usable part of that it will be did actually discover that there were some errors on some of the leases this year and we will be sending out some corrections most of that is very small percentage points differences but most of them a lot of quite a few tenants will be getting bills for a little make-ups on the leases so due to errors that were created in that spreadsheet there will be corrections going out to people any questions on that okay the last thing I had kind of on here and I guess this is more will be an information or an action action item for us later tonight is just if you guys wanted to make a recommendation on the CPI stuff that we talked about last month and that's all I have oh I should make one more point actually I had a quick air show update also I talked with Marika at the city and the communications team and they put the air show also on their calendar to help potentially be conflict with anything else is going on and that's all I have promise thank you leave I any any questions for leave I on his update mr. Shek so CPI adjustment I think I read something about the city wants to enact that the first part of the year yeah but doesn't the CPI come out in like July no actually it comes out in late October the official number so the kind of the idea is it comes out in late October instead of applying it in late October we essentially just gave everybody if you will an extra two three months grace period to sit on the old CPI and then just apply it the first year so will you send out notices to people saying you know your rate is going to be this much so they're prepared actually it'll save people money well I understand that but will you send out a notice to the tenants just you know I know I get a notice in California on what the CPI oh yeah we every year to yeah we send out the information on the new CPI whenever okay I see what you're saying and just on that the recommendation to change that policy only applies to new leases yeah because existing leases there's not the timing built in yeah so we can't change it and from a practical standpoint there would be no point in trying to go back and change a massive I just want to make sure I understood right yeah so in the current leases there's a defined date when the CPI increase takes effect and it's the anniversary the least correct yes what we're saying is going forward any new leases they would just have January one okay in every one of them and that does a couple main things it first of all delays that increase for the person paying and then it just makes the counting massively easier on the part of the city yep but any current tenant has no change in policy until they get a new lease yeah vice-chair Dean quick question for Levi for the last snow storm what are we looking at for budget for snow and rule so far so far I don't have those exact figures in front of me but we're pretty good we're not quite at the hitting the our planned you know ouch what if we get this much snow so we're looking good on that we actually had additional we had I think $14,000 of extra money for mowing last year too so we're covered pretty well anything else on updates from the airport manager okay absolutely so how is the new truck coming along with the plow and I haven't I'm not there every day but I haven't seen the skid steer and the snowblower doing any work at the skid steer well we haven't had many snowstorms we're actually out there interesting little update on that I'm having a battery tender hopefully knock on wood just send another reminder email to them they put on that so I get plugged in at a battery tender already got a heat block heat block heater put onto it I got a thermal coupling for that so it'll switch on when it gets below like 40 degrees so that so soon as they get that updated it'll be a hundred percent ready to go with battery plus heater on it whenever we have a snowstorm yeah I've been I've used it I think twice this year and just to cover some the small little piles from that first storm snowblower actually haven't used yet haven't had had the call for it just been using the bucket and stuff like that the truck is still sitting with fleet unfortunately it moves at the speed at what they can get things done to our call correctly last plot it was sitting it needed they're waiting on me to get it in for an alignment on the front of it call that the update okay we don't have any information items there's nothing listed for action items but as we discussed and as we talked about last time we did have that CPI language change it was in the minutes from last time so it has been out there for the public given it's going forward new leases I'd be comfortable making a recommendation on that but would open it up to the group if anyone would like to either wait on that or if you're comfortable acting or any further discussion okay would anyone like to make a motion then since we already discussed a little bit of it vice chair Dean make a motion for the CPI okay is there a second moved in second at any other discussion all those in favor aye any opposed all right Levi you have a recommendation from us sounds good I don't know of any other action items and nothing listed yeah so hearing none I'm going to then move on to our final public invited to be heard would anybody like to come up and talk at our final public invited to be heard thank you anything else all right seeing none I will close final public invited to be heard board counsel and our staff comments board and our staff comments board members comments I'm good mr. Shook where are we at with new board members and I know Reiner's not here so but nothing was said so bring that up excellent question that was gonna be my comment for the evening so so Reiner sent notice earlier today that he was are gonna resign from the board so we have one more open seat council is has on their agenda to appoint new board members on at their Tuesday meeting last item on their agenda in practice that's usually like 10 10 30 if anyone wants to be here to do that we don't know at this point if we'll be able to appoint in Reiner's seat or not given how late it is so we do have we had five applicants right Levi so three open seats before today and so we've made a recommendation to council from that special meeting of the three that we wanted we provided a priority order beyond those three as well so we're hopeful that council may just be able to appoint that last seat so we have all seven but we should at least assuming council follows our recommendations we should have five or six at least six sorry at minimum six and then we can always ask what the this is kind of such a weird spot because it's happening all right you know are we too late because technically we're past the time to get in or whatever we can certainly ask and see what they can do so yeah that's the question so but we've already passed the deadline for the recommendation and we recommended the top three and on top of that we I'm sure we already passed the deadline for them determining what the openings were so can they even fill more than three seats in this car yeah that parts my question since on their communication it has the three seats yeah you know Malcolm's expiring seat and then two others I plan to send a note to the city clerk tomorrow yeah it doesn't hurt later tonight and just say hey this is what's going on we made our recommendations we'd really encourage council to act and I'm happy to send that note to council directly as well but I can't promise anything you know to that point would anyone mind making a motion to direct me to send that to council so I can say we all vote on it we all made it official moved seconded seconded vice chair any discussion all those in favor say aye aye any opposed all right I'll send notes to city clerks and council no promises but I'll do our my part yeah it would be nice to have seven it would be really nice to have seven it'd be nice not to worry about so much the quorum and stuff like that yes but I appreciate you all yeah I'm confirming on short notice and be in here tonight so thank you any other comments from board members leave a city staff comments we're good okay then everybody have a really wonderful holiday enjoy the rest of the year we'll see you next year meetings adjourned
