GIL SWIGER~ CITY CLERK FLORENCE PHELAN., ~Y MONEY IS SPENT BECAUSE ANY RECEIPTS THAT PRE-DATE THE DATE ENDED, UP WITH WON'T QUALIFY. MAYOR FLOOD STATED THA~ WE ARE GOING TO WAIT UNTIL EVERYTHING IS JUST RIGHT. WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TO GET A SURVEY DONE TO BE ABLE TO LOCATE THE ~ AND LAY THEM OUT. THE SAME WORKING RULES THAT APPLY TO THE STATE WILL APPLY TO DOT. DOT AGREES TO PROVIDE SUCH IN KIND SERVICES AS MAY BE REQUESTED BY THE CITY TO ACCOMPLISH A PROJECT. THIS MEANS THAT, FOR EXAMPLE, A TRENCHER COULD BE REQUESTED, AT A CHARGE. THE STATE REOOMMENDS THAT IF ANOTHER GOVERN- MEN~GENCY CAN BE USED IT IS A LOT CHEAPER THAN PUTTING OUT ON THE OPEN MARKET. ALL RESOURCES ARE AVAILABLE FOR A PRICE. IN DISCUSSION WITH MR. ~ THE MAYOR STATED THAT THE ONLY THING WE'RE COMMITTED TO SPEND FOR WHAT THEY HAVE ALLOCATED;~$1500.O0, FOR WHICH THE STATE WILL BE RESPONSIBLE. WE DON'T HAVE TO SPEND ALL THAT OR WE COULD SPEND ANYTHING UP TO THAT. MR. ~ SAID THE $1500.00 IS A CAP. IT COULD BE ZERO. THE MAYOR ASKED IF HE WAS CORRECT IN SAYING THAT IT COULD BE $2,000.00, BUT THAT THEY WOULD ONLY PAY $750.00. MR. ~ SAID THAT FOR $2,000. THEY WOULD PARTICIPATE FOR $1,000. CAP B~ MATCHING LOCAL ALL THE WAY. YOU COULD DO IN KIND. $1500. IS A IT COULD BE CITY FORCES WORKING, BUT WE WOULD HAVE TO KEEP TRACK OF THE MAN HOURS. NOTHING FREE FOR IN KIND SERVICES. THEY DO CHARGE AT A SET FEE BUT FEE IS ALSO TAKEN OUT OF THE OVERALL FUNDS. FUNDS ARE "MATCHING FUNDS". CAN BE MAN HOURSBY OUR OWN CREW AND MAN HOURS FOR ADMINISTRATION. ANYTHING MORE THAN $10,000. MUST GO TO PUBLIC BID. DOT IS PUTTING IN 50%, CITY 'IS PUTTING IN 50%. THAT 50% CAN ALL BE USED FOR IN KIND SERVICES IF SO DESIKED. ALL CAN'T BE BECAUSE IT IS NECESSARY TO BUY NEW EQUIPMENT. CAN USE ANY WAY. CAN USE OUR OWN PERSONNEL. IN A SHORT WHILE~MAYOR FLOOD STATED,~lff~E WE ARE GOING TO NEED TO PUT A CAP OVER OUR EXISTING RUNWAY. WOULD LIKE TO GET FAA MONEY TO HELP WITH THAT. WHEN MAYOR FLOOD ATTENDED A MEETING WITH FAA THEY WERE UNABLE TO FIND ANY OF OUR FILES. THE CIndY CLERIC' WILL DOUBLE CHECK AND MAKE COPIES FROM OUR FILES WHICH FAA CANNOT FIND. MAYOR FLOOD SAID WE HAVE AN ASSET IN THE AIR- PORT, YET IT IS A LIABILITY, TOO, SINCE WE HAVE TO MOW IT, ETC. NOISE, TOO, IS BECOMING A PROBLEM. ONLY THING NEEDED TO QUALIFY FOR FEDERAL MONEY, MR. KIMBROUGH INFORMED, IS TO GET ON~NASP~ LIST AND HE IS WORKING ON THAT. THINKS IT MIGHT BE CLOSE. SAYS WE HAVE DONE WELL TO HAVE 20 PLANES AT THE AIRPORT. REFLECTORS WILL BE PROCURED FOR THE RUNWAYS. ON HAND RIGHT NOW ARE ONE OR TWO ·TRANSFORMERS, TIMERS, SWITCHERS ,LIGHTS, BULBS, STAKES, REFLECTORS. WE DO NOT HAVE WIRE OR A ROTATING BEACON. SOME SMALL AIRFIELDS USE A POLICE CAR BEACON. ON ELECTRICAL WORK MAYOR FLOOD COULD BASE HIS SUPERVISION AS IN KIND SERVICES. THIS WILL HAVE TO BE LOOKED INTO. MAYOR CAN DONATE HIS SERVICES, BUT CANNOT CHARGE THE CITY. i·_MR.
