City Council Meeting <br />August 13, 2001 <br />Page 17 <br />housing on properties that have been selling for a penny or a dime per hundred <br />dollars worth of tax value and now a new home would be placed on the <br />property, increasing the tax value of the property. He also pointed out that it <br />would be a considerable amount of savings to the city because we are presently <br />mowing and maintaining the property. City Attorney Schenk felt this program <br />will work.

Exhibit One of the summary <br />sheet summarizes the current long-term leases on the Airport. Exhibit Two is <br />the current policy for private hangars. Exhibit Three contains the survey results <br />on the various airports.

The motion carried 6 ayes, <br />1 nay, Mayor Pro Tem Manning voting no. <br />After discussion of the term of lease agreements of private hangar at Cox Field, <br />
