1974; was later expanded to six (6) members by Resolution No. 1646 in 1974; was reduced <br />in size to five (5) members by Resolution No. 1722 in December of 1975; and was <br />expanded to its current membership of seven (7) by Resolution No. 89-095 in August of <br />1989. The survey also indicates that some boards have requirements with regard to the <br />members who serve on those boards. In addition, the board members themselves have <br />widely varying background as reflected in Exhibit 3. Some members have had the emphasis <br />on pilots and airport related individuals; some boards have a cross-section of the <br />community; some require residency as a condition of membership on the board, and one <br />board requires a member of city council. <br /> <br />The Paris Airport Advisory Board has recommended that the size of the board be expanded <br />to eleven (11) members. <br /> <br />APPROVED B Y CITY COUNCIL TO EXPAND TO NINE (9) <br /> <br />It should be noted that one of the concerns expressed as a justification for expanding the <br />board was the need to continue to have a quorum for board meetings. The most recent <br />attendance record for the Airport Advisory Board is included in this agenda information <br />package as Exhibit 7. It is worthy of noting that for the eleven (11) meetings held in <br />calendar year 2001, the board had a quorum for each of those meetings. <br /> <br />The City Council needs to determine and provide guidance to the staff as to whether or not <br />a resolution should be prepared expanding or changing the size or makeup of the Board <br /> <br />VI. Expenditure, revenue, and fee issues. The City Council also directed that further input be <br /> received regarding fees charged by the City for T-Hangars located at the airport. Included <br /> with the Agenda Information Sheet related to this discussion is an Exhibit 8 on the grant <br /> history and monies expended at the airport related to grants; a current revenue and expense <br /> statement (Exhibit 9); and a table of 1999/2000 rates and charges for general aviation <br /> airports, including the City of Paris, for comparison purposes (Exhibit 10). This material <br /> was derived from a publication by the Texas Department of Transportation. Within those <br /> categories of rates and charges are rental rates for T-Hangars for comparison purposes. <br /> <br />The current rates charged at Cox Field Municipal Airport for T-Hangars is $49 per month <br />for open hangars (1,344 square feet); $85 per month for closed hangars (1,344 square feet); <br />and $100 per month for closed hangars 1,750 square feet in size and some 1,344 square feet <br />in size. The Airport Advisory Board has recommended that the T-Hangar rentals be <br />increased to $55 for open hangars, $95 for the closed 1,344 square feet, and $110 per <br />month for the larger closed hangars. <br /> <br />APPR 0 FED B Y CITY CO UNCIL AS FOLL 0 WS: $ 55.
