IV. Status of the self service fuel system:
Mr. Haynes explained to the Board that at the last meeting the City
Council approved for the purchase a self service credit card fuel system
for AV gas by J. R. Aviation. J. R. Aviation would then suspend the
monthly payment for AV gas to the City of Paris until the cost of the self
service system is paid off. The cost approved by City Council was
$19,295.95 which was the amount of the only bid received. The next step
in this process is a contract between J. R. Aviation and the City of Paris
for the purchase of the self service fuel system. The contract should be
available in approximately two weeks.
V. Status of TxDot Aviation Approval of a new helicopter landing site:
No new information on the approval of undesignating the current
helicopter pad and moving it to another location.

A motion to remove this item from the table was made by J.W. Ashmore and
seconded by Don Morrell. The motion passed unanimously. J.W. Ashmore
reported on the research to get a picture of Charles Mac Cox. He went to the
Paris Junior College archives and got a class picture of him. Ashmore than
had the picture blown up to 5" x 7" and took it to a local artist, Jamie Carter,
for her to do an oil portrait . The 16" x 20" framed portrait will cost
$250.00. Mr. Haynes thanked Mr. Ashmore for his work on this project.
Once the portrait is completed, we will have a plaque engraved with the vital
information that will be below the painting.
VII. Status of proposed Cox Field brochure:
Mr. Haynes passed out the final revised brochure for the Board to review.
One additional change was made to include the wording "serving general
aviation ". Haynes advised we were getting prices and would go to PEDC
and the Chamber of Commerce to help pay for the brochure. Haynes
thanked the Board for their help in preparing the brochure.
