Phil Porrini said the Site Selection portion of the E.A. is two weeks from being completed. The attached table was discussed regarding the site selection. Various aeronautical and non -aeronautical factors were weighing factors. once Site Selection is completed, we will then continue on with the Environmental process. Art asked if the FAA would waive the radio tower issue so construction could get started. Phil said it is probably not likely, but that strobing the towers could be a more economical way of dealing with them.. Phil said the EA will be completed in approximately six months. Once the FONSI (Finding of No significant Impact) is issued, the City can put in an application for funding for the Airport Improvement Project. Bill Burkland from Peccia and Associates will be meeting with John Stokes from KGEz Radio next month regarding the radio towers. He would appreciate having a couple of Airport Board and City Staff members attend this meeting on Wednesday, July I I" at I:00 p.m. Regarding future management of the airport, Chris mentioned that both Dick Brady and Dick Amerman from Public Works have aeronautic licenses. There could be a possibility of having any of the following manage the airport: the Public Works Department, a Fixed Based operator (FBO), hiring a manager, or Glacier International Airport. We need the FAA to issue the FONSI before we will pursue management options. Gib will prepare a letter for Chris with a copy to Glen and City Council regarding pursuing past due rent. Chris stated that once funds are available for the airport TIF, a fence will be installed on the east line to cut off access to Rosauer's and prevent individuals from cutting across the airport from Airport Road to Rosauer's.
