The turn around time to repair these cards has dramatically increased; consequently we had to purchase two new cards at $1000 each to keep up with the card problems. Even these new cards take 8-10 weeks for delivery. Unfortunately, Mitsubishi is the sole source of repaired and new cards. ♦ The Plant Manager and the Public Works Director made a visit to Glacier Gold Compost, Inc..

There were no commercial building inspections done, due to the increase in ambulance calls for this month. Our "Chimney Brush Program", was used seven times during the month of July. Respectfully Submitted --� Az Orland Leland Assistant Fire Chief Agenda -August 18, 1997 FYI - All 1997 budgeted overlays were completed on 8-10-97. We are now sweeping these streets to remove the excess gravel. The overlay program should be completed by Thursday. Northern Lights and Liberty is all that is left to be done. The sidewalk project is approximately 90* complete. This should be completed in 2-3 weeks. On August 11t-h, the Airport Advisory Board, the Master Plan engineers, and a representative from the FAA met to review the draft contract documents. The contract form is currently approximately 90W complete. Upon final approval, the FAA will submit a list to me for the independent review of the proposed fees. This is a required process from FAA. I would project that we should have a signed agreement within 30-45 days. The contract will be a two phase contract. Phase One -is a feasibility study to determine if changing to B-2 is feasible. Phase Two -would be the "traditional" Master Plan study. This phase may or may not be funded by FAA. This will be known only after Phase One is completed.
