MINUTES AIRPORT ADVISORY BOARD TUESDAY, MAY 31, 1977 7:00 O'CLOCK P. M. COX FIELD AIRPORT PARIS, TEXAS The regular meeting of the Airport Advisory Board was held in the terminal building of the Cox Field Airport on May 31, 1977. Those in attendance included: 1. Rick Rex - Chairman' 2. Wayne Clement 3. Lawrence Mann 4. Bill Boothe 5. Bruce Carr Also present was Jim Collier, the Airport Manager. Minutes of the previous meeting were approved. Mr. I. N. Burchinal, Jr. had not completed the formulation of his plan for the airplane museum; thus, his presentation was deferred to a later meeting. Mr. Clarence Hart's request for a permit for flight training was denied, as the Board did not feel one was required under the present city ordinances. It was decided that Mr. Hart did not use Cox Field as his primary base of operations, therefore, the permit was not required. Rick Rex advised the Board that he and Bill Boothe had conversed with Messrs. Graves, Zipp and Payne who are employed by the F.A.A. in Fort Worth. The F.A.A. representatives cautioned the City to be careful of changing the city ordinances as they pertain to the airport so as not to jeopardize A.D.A.P. funding that might be available to the City. The F.A.A. requested that we preview any proposed ordinance changes with them to avoid any potential conflicts with their regulations. Bruce Carr advised the Board that a question has arisen regarding the status of Paris for fiscal year 1978 funding under the A.D.A.P. program. The question evolves from the present air service classification of the airport. Representatives of the City and the Chamber of Commerce are working through the elected representatives in Washington to resolve the issue. There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned.
