REPORT TO THE IOWA CITY AIRPORT COMMISSION
1. Called Mr. Lewis Oberkrone, Compliance Officer, Federal
Aviation Agency, Kansas City, Missouri about the feasibility
of a private property owner adjacent to public airport being
allowed access to the airport. Mr. Oberkrone stated this
would be a non -Compliance to the agreement between the F.A.A.
and the Iowa City Airport Commission. Such an action is an
encumbrance on the airport and therefore is not allowed.
2. Mr. Oberkrone also brought up the question concerning the pay-
ment of $84,749.00 dollars by the Iowa Department of Transportation,
Highway Division, to the Iowa City Airport Commission for the
taking of 4.77 acres of land form the Airport and severance
damage to the remaining property. I assured Mr. Oberkrone the
Highway Division of I.D.O.T. was in the process of getting this
accomplished. Mr. Victor Preisser, Director of I.D.O.T., had
me visit with A.E. Schroeder, head of their Justice Department
and staff. They conveyed to me the contents of a letter written
to Mr. Robert Bohlin, Assistant City Attorney, of Iowa City
by Raymond Callahan, Assistant Attorney General, dated June
16, 1976. The City of Iowa City was sent the necessary forms
and the procedure to follow to make it possible for the
Highway Division to forward a draft in the amount of $84,749.00
to the City of Iowa City. The monies to be put in the Airport
Commission Fund for airport use. This being the situation, Mr.
Oberkrone stated, he would process the necessary forms and send
them to the City of Iowa City, so the City Administration can
complete the transaction with the Highway Division of I.D.O.T.
3. The Justice Department of I.D.O.T. also mentioned the fact it
appears the City Administration of Iowa City is concerned
about the Iowa City Airport Commission being an autonomus
group. To the Justice Department this was rather difficult to
understand, as the Iowa Code has always clearly spelled out
the Airport Commission's authority.
