End of Sept. airpark assets were approximately $130,000,

virtually all cash.

Bill Bunten indicated that he would like to be notified of any

expenses charged to airpark accounts in the future.

Secretary’s Report: Minutes of the Sept. meeting were read and approved, Bunten motion and Bain second.

Old Business:

Pedernales Electric will begin work at sunset on Nov 3,1999 with the expectation of completing the pipe placement as electrical conduits by troughing thru the runway near the Bain and Debower homes. Perforated drain pipes and gravel as sort of a French drain will be placed with concrete overlay for closure. The work is expected to be completed before sunrise, but a cushion of time will be established by Notam until noon of Nov 4.

Gordon indicated that preliminary sightings of the obstruction clearance angles would dictate a threshold displacement at each end of the runway…a couple hundred feet or so at 34 (south end) (to approximately where the old runway number is located) and significantly more displacement at the north end (16), possibly 700-800 feet. The final disposition of this matter will probably follow runway re-surfacing, when it would make sense to re-paint the runway markings as necessary.

Gordon acknowledged and additional bid of approximately $98,000 for the runway resurfacing project (from the Wheeler Co.).

The special meeting of the airpark membership which was discussed at the last board meeting has been put on hold pending the compilation of some additional information regarding runway weight bearing capacity. It is possible that most all of the pure jet aircraft may be exceeding the runway weight limit. Gross weights or weights per axle may be the determining factor.

New Business:

The fuel tank monitoring equipment required by the TNRCC will be installed soon at a cost of $4300 (approx). A side benefit will be the electronic fuel quantity readouts which will eliminate the wood pole method.

It was moved (Bain) and seconded (Lingle), all in favor, that the wording of the transient parking rule be changed to only 8 days in any 30 day period in stead of a month. A penalty of $50 per day will be imposed thereafter. Enforcement will begin with written notification to violators (format to be determined by Bill Bunten) with the possible imposition of liens on aircraft involved.

It was moved (Bunten) and seconded (Lingle) that all pedestrian and vehicular traffic be prohibited from the runway with the exception of runway maintenance, safety efforts, and emergency situations. All in favor.

A change in the hangar taxiway plans was announced such that the row of aircraft closest to the runway will not be relocated. The taxiway will be routed to a point on the ramp between the first two rows of aircraft.

A letter will be written and sent to Sonny Mc Cutcheon outlining the protocol for communicating with the board to establish his runway access from his property.

Pancake breakfast results: 160 people and approx. $155 profit.

An airpark status report will be made by Bill Bunten next month at the Lakeway City council meeting with the intent of providing council members what we feel to be a proper perspective on the past, present and future of the airpark. It is hoped that Robert White, a designated FAA safety specialist, may also be able to discuss safety aspects of the airpark as well.

Meeting was adjourned at 1:25 p.m.

Respectfully submitted,

Wayne Wagner, Secretary
