quest to the Airport Board. Also present was Councilman O'Boyle.
i
Councilman Zauner stated that in the time he has worked on the Airport Committee there
have been many problems. One piece of land adjacent to the airport has about 20 pro-
perty owners involved. There is a question of a 30' strip of land, which is part of the
Air Park Project,
Director of Public Works Hafferman stated that all of the easements for Mr. Monk
are part of a whole easement package. The City goes down his road to haul sludge
and Monk is asking for the sewer easement in return. Engineers have run grades and
they are apparently at minimum grade, making jacking difficult. Any excavation
would be done to Airport Board and City specs.
