1. Approve minutes of April 81 2002
A motion was made, seconded, and carried approving minutes of the Hutchinson Airport Commission of
April 8, 2002.
2. Review of Proposed Proiect — Safety /Security Improvements
Grant Wyffels and Jerry Petersen, of TKDA Engineers, reviewed the 2002 Airport Capital Improvement
project. Discussion items were presented, and the following comments were noted:
NavAid Service Roadwav:
❑ Commission members selected a route that crosses the drainage ditch twice as the preferred alternate
for the NavAid Service Roadway. A flat cross - section and sheet drainage across the road were
selected as the preferred alternate for roadway construction. Commission members were informed the
roadway would require continuing maintenance support from City staff.
❑ It is expected that the NavAid Service Roadway would cost about $70,000
Apron Taxilane:
❑ TKDA will contact McLeod Electric to arrange for the relocaiton of two power poles within the
Taxilane Object Fee Area (TOFA). Power to the three hangars will be routed underground from the
relocated poles.
❑ The City will be responsible for lighting the hangar area.
❑ The angle of the `north' corner of the ramp expansion will be flared to provide greater clearance for
aircraft to taxi around the `open' hangar.
❑ Olson will meet with Parker to identify any other areas of the ramp and/or taxilanes that should be
included in the project, and will also identify any areas that will be paved by City crews.
❑ The cost of the Apron Taxilane segment may increase by approximately $10,000 for additional small
pavement areas and power pole relocation.
Hangar Service Road:
❑ The Hangar Service Road was deleted from this year's project.
Fences & Gates:
❑ Fencing and gates were deleted from this year's project.
❑ The City will await further direction from the Transportation Security Agency (TSA) before
proceeding with any fencing.
