from TAC if we can get this started right away. That is the only major area in which we are deficient. Dick Boots has sent a letter to TAC requesting the funding. Cox Field Security Gate: Dick Boots reported that the subject was tabled two meetings ago. The bid by Pridemore Fence is still good. Exemption letter to FAA: we have written a letter to the FAA requesting exemption from portions of FAA Regulation 139.311. Certified Weather Observers: No action has been taken on designating or qualifying individuals as weather observers at Cox Field. It would be necessary to send in reports to cover each 24 hour period. The value of such 24 hour coverage is questionable when the cost and inconvenience is considered. An alternative to weather observers and reporting to Flight Service would be an Automatic Weather Reporting Station. No cost figures are currently known on the AWRS. The board agreed that we should discuss this item again at the next meeting. So far as is known, no action has been taken by the City Council. Discussion of 1988 -89 budget preparation: after discussion it was moved, seconded and passed that the board recommend that the following be added to the budget: Build Headwalls at the street culverts - $15,000. Replace road surface in parking area and circle at terminal - $27,500. Architect Fee - $3,500. New Business: Bring thoughts on a five year plan to the next meeting. Vic Abeles thanked Mr. Ritchie, F.B.O. for sending his personnel to the FAA refueling seminar at Mr. Ritchies's expense. Such training increases the quality of service provided to all pilots - local and transient. Vic Abeles discussed the problem of security for the FBO's equipment and stock in the terminal. It was suggested that the FBO write a request to Dick Boots outlining his needs. The meeting was adjourned at 8:10 P.M. Q J.W. Ashmore Recorder JWA:dep
