COUNCIL ROOM - CITY HALL PARIS, TEXAS The Airport Advisory Board met in regul Tuesday, January 27, 1981 at 7:15 P.M. present: 1. Richard Rex, Chairman 2. James Moseley 3. Allie O'Brien Others present were: 1. Jim Collier, Airport Manager 2. Don Whitaker 3. James England The meeting was called to order by Chai meeting were approved as mailed to memb Old Business: 1. Discussion of dis monthly session at City Hall on ith the following board members n Rex and the minutes of the previous al of three oldT- Hangars. It was reported by Mr. Collier and Mr. Whitaker that Mr. Wrenn had made no progress toward vacating the old hangars. 2. Ramp parking and cable tie- downs. Mr. Collier reported that the following were the additional options available (in addition to the present layout) for arranging small planes to be parked on the current south parking area of the, ramp: A. Increase the number of planes in each row to 4, instead of the current 3, per row, with all planes to face the same direction, usually north. The disadvantage of this proposal is that only the smallest singles could be parked this way and even then, the clearance between wing tips would be approximately 12 feet, an undesirably low margin for error. B. Increase to 5 planes per row in a nested fashion, by having every other plane facing an alternate direction, and /or by alternating high wing and low wing aircraft. The disadvantage of this method is that an attendent would be required to dlirect and assist pilots, especially females and those alone, in the parking of planes in order to keep planes parked properly and without damage to other craft. It was further noted that the estimated cost of installing parking cables required for either of the above parking methods is $3,200 - $3,500 for cable for two (2) rows of planes. It was noted that used cable is occasionally available from Campbell Soup Company for a great deal less that new cable. However, based on the overall cost and the disadvantages noted above. It was decided that the proposed new layout were not presently practical. The matter was tabled indefinitely, pending future 'developments. 3. Jet Fuel Storage Mr. Collier reported that the floats for' the new jet fuel tank are in but that a "check valve" remains to be received and installed. Also a concrete pad for the fuel separator and pump is not in ye't. The new jet fuel truck is operational and working well. New Business: 1.

It was noted that the total $242,000.00 is large, but that each project is important for the future of the airport. It was also noted that we want to be prepared to accept matching Federal funds if they are offered and that all projects subject to Federal matching funds should be budgeted in case the funds become available.
