at airport two weeks ago requesting an additional change order that would address
resurfacing the area coming out of the main gate where the eighteen wheelers have
torn up the driveway. They will also redo the circle area of pavement adjacent to
the terminal. Mr. Napier further stated that we are on schedule to complete the
project on time. Mr. Williams asked is there going to be any monies left over to
address other issues regarding hangers. Mr. Napier stated the Master Plan has a

new C.I.P. which includes new construction of hangers. Mr. Napier further

here they would require booking at least 16 people, 100 gallons of gas per flight and 15
gallons of oil, that total comes to approximately $4725.00 to book. The rides would cost
individuals $50.00 each, and the flight time would be about 30 minutes. Jack Ashmore

stated he will also try to contact Jim Terry with the B25 and see if there is a better price
available. Jeanna Scott went over the current budget and to do list with board members.
