Adjoumment r"Po isi :, 04 tez 0it- to 4, \ Agenda summary- 12 February 2004 a. Governance Structure—At the January meeting,Thrower suggested the Commission review the Commission's standing as an autonomous board,to see if the Commission would be as effective or more effective as an advisory commission. The City Manager and Mayor have been invited to the meeting to discuss how that would affect the operation and long-term viability of the Airport. b. Aviation Commerce Park—At the January meeting,the Commission agreed to extend the leasing agreement with Iowa Realty for 1 year. The listing agreement to sell the property must be approved by the Council. Tracy Overton will no longer be the agent. Kirk Hiland would replace him. Since the Mayor will be at the meeting for the first item on the agenda,this would be an opportune time to introduce him to Hiland. c. Runway 07 project—O'Neil met with Earth Tech on January 21 and has negotiated a contract for consultant fees for Phase 1 of the project. The agreement has been sent to the FAA for review as to the amount of the fees and the form of contract. The agreement will be contingent on receiving a grant for the project. If the Commission approves the contract,a Notice to Proceed will be issued.This will require a resolution. If a grant offer is received before the meeting,this will be included on the agenda. d. Environmental Assessment— The final draft report is under review by the Federal Aviation Administration. If there is anything new to report,someone from H.R. Green will be at the meeting to make a report. e. Obstruction mitigation project—O'Neil met with Stanley Engineering to discuss why this project has stalled. Mike Donnelly will be at the meeting to address any questions the Commission may have. The agreement for Phase II of the project will be ready for approval. This will require a resolution. f. Strategy/business plan—The final report from Airport Business Solutions was received on January 20, 2004. O'Neil has not yet received some of the support material, but the final report is ready for circulation. The Commission will need to accept the final report and send it to the City Council. Thrower will send a letter to the Council, outlining how the Commission will use the information in the report. / MINUTES IOWA CITY AIRPORT COMMISSION THURSDAY,JANUARY 8,2004—5:45 P.M. IOWA CITY AIRPORT TERMINAL MEMBERS PRESENT: Randy Hartwig, Baron Thrower,John Staley STAFF PRESENT: Sue Dulek,Ron O'Neil CALL TO ORDER: Chairperson Thrower called the meeting to order at 5:45 p.m. APPROVAL OF MINUTES: The minutes of the December 9,2003, Commission meeting were approved as submitted. REVIEW OF EXPENDITURES: O'Neil reviewed the check requests for January with the Commission. O'Neil said he is holding the final check for Airport Business Solutions until he receives the deliverables. O'Neil said the payment to the Gazette was for an ad to advertise for the roof project for buildings B and C. O'Neil said this would have to be advertised again because there were no bids. IL IL Green will contact companies directly next time the bids are due to remind them that the project has been advertised. PUBLIC DISCUSSION—ITEMS NOT ON AGENDA: Rick Mascari addressed the Commission. He said that he wanted to comment that the runways were cleared in a timely manner after the last snowfall and looked very good. He said he wanted to remind the Commission that in past years,the City Council had assured the Airport Commission that Runway 18/36 could be kept open until a replacement instrument approach was in place on another runway. He said he did not think that had been changed. UNFINISHED ITEMS FOR DISCUSSION/ACTION: No items were presented. ITEMS FOR DISCUSSION/ACTION: a. Runway 07 project— O'Neil said he and Sue Dulek have reviewed the contract and contacted Earth Tech with sonie suggested revisions. O'Neil said he has received an independent cost estimate for consultant services for the project and it is substantially different from the proposal from Earth Tech. He will have to review both cost proposals and see why there is such a difference. He said he just received the second estimate on Tuesday. O'Neil said it might require a special Commission meeting to approve the contract so Earth Tech can be given a Notice to Proceed. 1 ti ', • b. Environmental Assessment project— O'Neil circulated a memo he received from Joe Trnka, from H.R. Green,updating the Commission on the progress of the EA. He said the next move is up to Mark Schenkelberg, from the FAA. Dick Blum,from H.R. Green,said that he would like to address an item that was discussed earlier. He said that when the bids went out for the roofing project on buildings B and C, there were five companies that expressed interest. They contacted the companies after the bids were due and they said they were still interested and just did not realize when the bids were due. He said the next time the project is advertised, Green will contact the companies and send them bidding materials. Blum said that Joe Tmka discussed the EA with the FAA on Tuesday and they were positive that the information was sufficient to move ahead with the program. Thrower asked O'Neil if he had any contact with anyone willing to fiord the restoration of the United hangar? O'Neil said there is a tenant at the Airport that would like to have the hangar saved, but he was not aware of any fund-raising campaign. O'Neil said to restore the hangar,it would cost between$200,000-$ 600,000, in addition to what the FAA would pay for. Blum said them were two sub-tasks in conjunction with the EA that the Commission wanted H.R. Green to explore. One was to evaluate the options to rerouting Willow Creek or constructing a culvert to take it out of the Obstacle Free Area(OFA). He said he was surprised on how large of a culvert would be needed to meet the flow numbers. Thrower asked if this was a hydrologic study? Blum said that was the main focus of their task. O'Neil asked if there was any price comparison between the culvert design and rerouting the creek around the OFA? Blum said either design would be in the$ 600,000 range. Blum said there are pros and cons to each design. The rerouting would supply some fill needed for the runway project. The Corps and DNR should be more receptive to the culvert design because Willow Creek would not be rerouted. Blum said that it would probably be best to put the entire creek in a culvert on Airport property,but that would be cost prohibitive. The second sub-task was to develop the costs associated with rerouting Dane Road. Blum said the agreement negotiated with the FAA was for them to contribute to the Mormon Trek project an amount equal to what it would have cost to reroute a chip-seal road from the south edge of the OFA to the Mormon Trek intersection. Mormon Trek is a substitute for rerouting Dane Road. Blum said that engineering and environmental work had to be done for the proposed rerouted road, even though it was evident the road would not be built. O'Neil reminded the Commission that the Airport had already contributed about$ 184,000 to the Mormon Trek project. It was a FAA grant that purchased the property for the intersection of Highway 1 and Mormon Trek. c. Obstruction mitigation project-O'Neil said he was expecting a representative from Stanley Consultants to be at the meeting to explain the construction schedule. He said he had sent them an agenda and requested someone attend the meeting. Thrower said that since no one was present from Stanley,they should be officially notified that the Commission is concerned about their lack of progress on the project. O'Neil said he would contact the project manager to start with. O'Neil said that one of the reasons the Commission selected Stanley was that they are a local firm and said that because of their proximity to the Airport, they would be able to provide excellent service. 2 / d. Aviation Commerce Park(ACP)—Tracy Overton and Kirk Hiland,from Iowa Realty, were at the meeting. Overton said that as is typical over the holiday season,things were slow and he did not have any new prospects to discuss with the Commission. Overton said Iowa Realty sat down and reviewed several of their projects,the ACP being one of them. He said Iowa Realty is strong on the project and still feels it is only a matter of time before the lots sell. He said that sometime when a project is stagnant, it is best to bring in new faces and ideas. Overton said he would like to propose that he turn the project over to Kirk Hiland. He said Hiland is a more senior person in the firm and has more commercial experience. He said their contract is coming up for renewal and this would be a good time to make a switch. Overton introduced Kirk Hiland. Hiland said he has been with Iowa Realty Commercial for 11 years and been in the real estate business since 1975. He said he represents clients from Davenport to Des Moines. He said he has reviewed the project and he thought the Commission should revisit the pricing and also what direction the property should go. He said the competition is from all the surrounding area, including North Liberty and Cedar Rapids. He said there has been an aviation park in Cedar Rapids for a number of years and it is only about a third full. He said that the ACP has good flexibility in it's zoning. He said he does not think marketing to just aviation uses would ever develop. Hiland said the Commission should look at something like the R.M.Boggs offices and shop in North Liberty. Hiland thought the Commission may have to look at a significant reduction in the per square foot price and be flexible in the uses allowed. There is a drawback in the fact that there is not a signal light at either end of the entrance road. Thrower said that in light of the development around this area, did Hiland see something missing in the area that could be built on this property? Hiland said there are businesses on land that is underutilized and he could see some of those businesses relocating on the airport property. He said retail in this area is dying out. He thinks the Commission should try to encourage light industrial uses. Hiland said he thought a new appraisal should be done. He said there are a lot of things in the report that don't need to be changed,but new comparables should be used. Hiland said he would recommend that there be a system set up to speed up the review of an offer. He said he realizes the Commission only meets once a month. Staley asked how Hiland goes about finding customers? Hiland said they do some general advertising and direct mailing. He said they have national contacts through some of the organizations they are members of. O'Neil reminded Hiland that the Commission would expect a written report on a monthly basis. Overton said it would be a seamless transition between him and Hiland. O'Neil said the sales agreement with Iowa Realty expires in January. It is a three way agreement between the Commission,the Council and Iowa Realty Commercial. Staley made a motion to renew the contract with Iowa Realty. Hartwig seconded the motion and it passed 3-0. e. Governance Structure for the Iowa City Airport Commission—Thrower said there has been discussion on the notion of what it takes to build a strategic plan. He said he would like to review a governance structure that relates to the Iowa City Senior Center. He said the 3 i Senior Center is not tied to the political whims of the community. It is a regional resource. It has a charter that reflects it as a resource. He said this is comparable to the Airport. He said the by-laws explain the Senior Center's role and the City's role toward the Center. He said although the Airport Commission is created by State laws as an autonomous board, the facilities are owned by the City and the role of the Commission is one of stewardship rather than ownership. He said being autonomous but being financially dependent was somewhat of a precarious position. Thrower reviewed the Senior Center by-laws and compared them to the Commission's organization. He said a major difference is the charter of the Senior Center. The Senior Center Commission is advisory to the City Council. The main decisions are made at Council level. He said there is a greater number of employers(the Commission)than employees (staff). He said the Commission needs to ask itself if it makes sense to continue in this current model? Dulek said one of the Senior Center Commission's members is not a City resident. Thrower said this was interesting because many of the tenants at the Airport do not live in Iowa City and do not have a voting voice in the Airport management. This may be something to consider if the governance is changed. Thrower said he put this on the agenda because he wanted to get the Commission's opinion on this issue. Hartwig said the Commission would need to weigh the factors on how this would affect the operations of the Airport. Dulek said a change in the governance would require a referendum. Hartwig asked how many airports in the State have commissions? O'Neil said he didn't know an exact number,but he would try to find out from the State Office of Aviation. There are also some airport authorities that have complete autonomy and taxing authority. Cedar Rapids and Washington are two airports in this area that have commissions. Hartwig said he would like to have input from the public before he could make any decision on changing. Staley said the biggest difference between the Commission and Senior Center Commission is that it is the Airport Commission's job is to manage and control the Airport and the Senior Center is only advisory. He said all of the pros and cons should be reviewed for the long-term health of the Airport. Thrower said as Commission members,they have to ask themselves what are they bringing to the table and how are they serving aviation? Would that differ if they went to an advisory role? He said some people struggle with the concept of what role the Commission plays in managing the airport and how this interacts with the rest of the City. Staley asked if Thrower was suggesting part of the Strategic Plan address changing the governance of the Airport? Thrower said he thought about making a motion to change the governance or at least lay out a timetable to discuss and act on the issue. Staley said he would like more input. He said he would like to invite the Mayor and City Manager to the next Commission meeting to discuss this. Thrower asked O'Neil to put this on the next agenda and invite the Mayor and City Manager to the meeting. O'Neil said he would suggest the Commission look at the length of the term for the Commissioners. He said six years is a long term. The State law says the term can be between three and six years. O'Neil said if the Conunission wanted to discuss it,he would recommend a term of three or four years. 4 f. Strategic planning— Thrower said the Commission has the ABS report and it needs some grammatical changes. O'Neil said he was contacted by ABS and they wanted their final payment. O'Neil said he would send them a check as soon as the corrections were made and he received the deliverables. ABS didn't like that answer and contacted Thrower. Thrower and O'Neil made a conference call to Michael Hodges. Thrower explained that they expected a report with correct English and that even if we didn't catch the mistakes the first time, he expected a professional looking document. Hodges agreed to make the corrections. Hodges then questioned the deliverables. He said his three-page contract didn't say anything about providing ten copies and an electronic version. O'Neil reminded him that it was a three-page contract, with a three-page attachment for the Scope of Services. The deliverables were spelled out in the Scope of Services. O'Neil sent Hodges the corrections that needed to be made and faxed him a copy of the contract. He said he has the check and will release it when ABS has completed the contract. When the report is completed, O'Neil said he would put this back of the agenda so the Commission can accept the final product. Thrower said he had raised a point of concern about sending the Council the ABS document as a stand-alone report because it was not all inclusive of what the Commission was trying to accomplish with the Strategic Plan. He asked if the Commission was comfortable enough sending the report,along with a letter explaining the Commission's response to the report? Thrower said the Council has funded the report and is expecting some type of closure. The Commission agreed this should be done. Thrower said he would draft a letter and send it around to the other Commission members for comment. CHAIRPERSON'S REPORT: Thrower said there were a lot of important issues discussed at the meeting tonight. He said as soon as the EA can be completed, it will help them move forward of the Runway 07 project. Thrower said there are some issues with Stanley Consultants that need to be cleared up so the Commission can proceed with the Obstruction Mitigation project. Thrower said he would like each of the Commission members to consider the discussion of the governance of the Airport. Thrower said O'Neil has been thorough in the preparation of documents to address capital needs and the operating budget. He said he thinks there is a good relationship between the Airport Manager and the City Manager. That relationship is not adequately characterized in the ABS report. He said this should not be minimized and should be mentioned in their letter to the Council concerning the ABS report. COMMISSION MEMBERS'REPORTS: Hartwig agreed that the Commission had covered a lot of important issues at the meeting. He said he would also like to congratulate Thrower in recently getting his private pilot's license. Staley said he had a good tour of the Airport last Friday with O'Neil and it was helpful in understanding some of the ongoing and future projects. 5 -1 ADMINISTRATIVE REPORT: Dulek said the reason the Senior Center has a non-City member on their Commission is because the County makes a small contribution to the Center's budget. O'Neil said there is a copy of the Mayor's Proclamation for declaring December 17 as Aviation Day in Iowa City. Hartwig accepted the proclamation on behalf of the Commission. In the packet,there was a copy of the Council's schedule for the next two months. A copy of the Iowa Public Airports Associations 2004 legislative priorities was in the packet. O'Neil said he would be going to Des Moines in March for Airports Day at the Capital to discuss aviation issues and airport funding with local legislators. There is a memo in the packet from the Transportation Security Administration. There are three ground schools to start in January. Jet Air is teaching an instrument ground school and Kim Brogan is teaching a private ground school and an instrument ground school. The Council appointed Daniel Clay to the Airport Commission on January 6. There is still one position open that the Council will re-advertise for.

Chairperson Baron Thrower used the Senior Center Commission, which is advisory to the Council, as a comparison. The discussion was preliminary and the Commission decided to discuss what the impact would be of having an advisory Commission instead of the system now in place. The Commission members are to compile a list of advantages and disadvantages for discussion at their February 12th meeting. The Commission agreed it would be very beneficial to have the City Manager and the Mayor participate in their February meeting. This memo is an invitation to you to attend the Commission meeting and participate in the discussion of what would be the best way to assure the Airport is included as a long-term asset to the City of Iowa City. Please let me know if you will be able to attend the meeting. It is scheduled for February 12, 2004 at 5:45 p.m. in the second floor meeting room of the Terminal Building. This will be the first agenda item for discussion. • Cc: Airport Commission- - Sue Dulek, Assistant City Attorney a' IOWA CITY MUNICIPAL AIRPORT 1801 South Riverside Drive Iowa City, Iowa 52246 Office Phone(319) 356-5045 Memorandum To: Steve Atkins From: Ron O'Neil e� �� • Date: January 26, 2004 Re: Project information Attached is a list of projects Baron Thrower requested I forward to you.

The House approved the measure on December 8, so today's action means that the bill can finally be sent to the President for his signature and enactment into law. Today's action also clears the way for the release of AIP funds to airports,since the FAA has been waiting for enactment before proceeding with the distribution of grant money. In addition to AIP funding,the omnibus bill includes a number of funding and policy items of importance to airports. Additional details on the treatment of airport priorities in the bill can be viewed at: http://www.airportnet.org/secure/federal/alerts/2003/al201.htm. Keep in mind that the omnibus bill includes a 0.59 percent across-the-board cut to offset unbudgeted spending that applies to all programs and projects, so all dollar amounts in the bill should be multiplied by 0.9941. Passage of the omnibus effectively closes the book on the very busy 2003 legislative year. For a complete summary of all of the legislative items in 2003 that affected airports, be sure to check out the 2003 AAAE/ACI- NA Legislative Affairs Annual Report, which can now be viewed online at: Imp://www.airportnet.org/depts/federal/LegA ff%20An nual%20 Report%2003.pd f. 1/27/2004 RESOLUTION NO.

The Commission received eight responses when they advertised for consultants and after interviewing three firms, Earth Tech was selected. The main focus of the project is to add approximately 800 feet of pavement to the west end of our primary runway. The first phase of the project will include an Environmental Assessment, updating the Airport's DBE program, developing an FAA approved Pavement Management Plan, historic documentation of the United hangar, design of the relocation of Willow Creek, the Dane Road relocation and the Runway 07 design. The second phase, programmed for FY 2005, will be the site preparation. The third phase, in FY 2006, will be the paving and lighting of the runway. I have received a letter from the Federal Aviation Administration stating that approximately$ 1,400,000.00 has been programmed for the first phase of this project. The funding bill has been signed by the President. Congress will reconvene on January 20 to finish the appropriations bill so grants can be offered. This is a multi-year FAA Airport Improvement Program. There is language in the bill for certain airports that would require only a 5% local match, instead of the 10% match as in the past. I am researching to see if Iowa City qualifies for the 5% match. As soon as a contract is negotiated with Earth Tech and approved by the Commission, I would like to give Earth Tech their Notice to Proceed. A substantial amount of the first phase of this project is for planning and design. Earth Tech is ready to begin immediately after they receive the Notice to Proceed. If you have questions or would like additional information, please contact me at 5045.

O'Neil Airport Manager Cc: Iowa City Airport Commission Y 500 S.W. 7th Street, Suite 301, Des Moines, Iowa 50309 January 26, 2004 Mr. Ronald J. O'Neil Airport Manager Iowa City Municipal Airport 1801 South Riverside Drive Iowa City,Iowa 52246 Subject: Extension of Runway 7-25,Phase I Iowa City Municipal Airport Dear Mr. O'Neil: Telephone Transmitted herewith are two (2) copies of the revised Professional Services Agreement 5 15.244.14 70 for the Extension of Runway 7-25 -Phase I at the Iowa City Municipal Airport. Facsimile We have revised the project scope for the Historic Documentation of the "United Hangar" to match the requirements outlined in the Draft Environmental Assessment,the Draft 4(f) 515.244.4803 • Statement, and the Draft Memorandum of Agreement (MOA). As a result, we have reduced the estimated cost for this element of the project. If the Environmental Assessment, 4(1) Statement, or the Memorandum of Agreement changes, we will request adjustment to the scope and cost accordingly. We have reviewed the final design tasks for Willow Creek Relocation and have made some reductions in hours. In addition to these reductions, we offer the following as justification for the hours that we have estimated for this work. 1. The design for Willow Creek relocation is based on a multi-way concrete box culvert crossing the runway safety area. The estimated hours for the culvert details is necessary to adapt standard Iowa Department of Transportation box culvert sections to the specific site conditions. These modifications include reinforcing changes due to length, depth of cover, loading conditions, soil conditions which may require additional support and detailing at joints, and special inlet and outlet sections that will direct the stream flow. 2. The relocation will involve rerouting of Willow Creek flow and will require the development of plan,profile, and details for the new alignment from the outlet at Iowa Highway 1 to the connection on the south side of the runway as well as determination of drainage routing from the west and south side of the runway extension. Because the project will disturb more than an acre of area, en erosion control plan and permit will be required. EAR T H V TECH A two INTERNATIONALvNALTD.COMPANY Mr. Ronald J. O'Neil January 26,2004 Page 2 3. The installation of a multi-way box culvert will most likely result in an increase in the base flood elevation just upstream of the culvert. This will require extensive hydraulic modeling for application of a Conditional Letter of Map Revision (CLOMR) to FEMA. In addition, permits will be required for the Corps of Engineers and the Iowa DNR. To obtain a Letter of Map Revision (LDMR) from FEMA, we will have to provide hydraulic modeling of the "as constructed" facility and provide revised flood plain maps for FEMA. Based on the above, we are reluctant to reduce the final design hours further as it will impact the level of service and the quality of the project that we anticipate providing and that you,the FAA, and the Airport Commission are expecting. If you have additional questions or comments, please contact our office at your convenience. Very truly yours, Earth Tech,Inc. Steven J.Eaton,P.E.

Ron O'Neil - )m: Michelle.McEnany@DOT.STATE.IA.US nt: Friday, January 30, 2004 3:59 PM ....bject: DOT news release-Airport programs approved through 2007 The reauthorized AIP program reduces local matches on federal programs to 5 percent! ! ! This is great news for all Iowa communities that are eligible to receive federal airport funding! The following press release was sent to statewide media this week. Our office has also created a brochure that provides more detail on the Vision 100 reauthorization program. It is now at print and will be sent to all airports within the next couple of weeks. Michelle McEnany Forwarded by Michelle McEnany/DOT/StatelA on 01/30/2004 03:39 PM Tracey Bramble To: 01/27/2004 08:41 cc: AM Subject: DOT news release - Airport programs approved through 2007 Airport programs approved through 2007 r,MES, Iowa ? Jan. 27, 2004 - A reauthorized federal funding program approved by Congress and signed by President Bush last month is good news for Iowa's eight commercial service airports and 69 of the state's general aviation airports, according to Michelle McEnany, Director of the Iowa DOT's Office of Aviation. The funding package, called "Vision 100, " reauthorizes federal aviation programs through 2007, and sets authorized spending levels for the Airport Improvement, Essential Air Service, and Small Community Development Grant programs. The Airport Improvement Program, fully funded from aviation-generated user fees, provides funding for construction, rehabilitation and safety projects to Iowa airports that are part of the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems, and are determined to be a significant part of the national air transportation system. The local community match, historically 10 percent, will be reduced to 5 percent under the reauthorized program. Communities will also have greater flexibility in the use of federal funds for airport projects. The Essential Air Service program provides airline subsidies to provide continuing air service to smaller communities. Burlington, Fort Dodge and Mason City all participate in the Essential Air Service program. Small Community Development Grants provide funding to help smaller commercial service airports increase enplanement levels through the use of marketing programs. All commercial airports in Iowa are eligible to apply annually for these grants. Mason City received a Small Community )evelopment Grant for $600, 000 in 2002. Dubuque received a grant for $610,000 in 2003. According to McEnany, "The program could exceed $106 million in airport 1 infrastructure funding to the state through 2007. This is a positive note that the federal government continues to see Iowa playing a significant role in the nation's air transportation system. We are seeing strong indications of recovery in Iowa's air transportation system since the post 9/11 downturn. At the same time, communities are dealing with strained budgets. Vision 100 will go a long way in providing communities increased flexibility and decreased capital outlays to continue providing quality air access to their areas. " A study conducted by Iowa State University in 2000 found that Iowa's air transportation system provides an annual economic impact of $834 million and nearly 10,000 jobs in the state of Iowa.

Ron O'Neil —rom: Ross Spitz ent: Wednesday, January 21, 2004 2:13 PM o: Ron O'Neil Subject: article Ron, Here is the article that was in last saturday's newspaper. I wanted to make sure you saw what was printed. Thanks, Ross Mormon Trek extension on hold Airport runway delay might slow completion By Vanessa Miller Iowa City Press-Citizen expanding Mormon Trek Boulevard from Highway 1 to Highway 921 could take up to one year longer than originally planned because of delays on a related airport runway improvement project. Postponing the completion means delaying an economic boost from new construction and jobs.Extending the major thoroughfare is expected to create more than 180 acres of developable land on the southwest side of Iowa City. "Right now the road project is right on schedule,so we've got to speed up the runway project,"said Ross Spitz,civil engineer for the city. Before crews can complete the Mormon Trek Boulevard extension,one of the Iowa City Airport's three runways must close to allow them sufficient space to work.That runway,which extends north and south,cannot close until crews extend one of two existing east- west runways. City officials expected to complete the 800-foot runway extension by summer 2005.Needed funding from the Federal Aviation Administration has yet to arrive,however. "We would have to wait until the runway was completely done in a perfect situation for the airport," Spitz said. "But we may both have to compromise." City officials have divided the Mormon Trek Boulevard extension project into two phases.The first phase,which began last July,will bring the street about I mile from Highway 1 to the western limits of the Iowa City Airport property. The second phase will bring the road another 1,800 feet to Highway 921. The first portion should be complete by late summer. "We were supposed to start work on(the second phase of)the Mormon Trek Boulevard extension and have it open by fall 2005," Spitz paid. "But the airport funding disbursement isn't happening as fast as they had thought it would." The airport project,funded through a multi-year FAA Airport Improvement Program grant, includes an environmental assessment of the area,designs for the extended runway,paving improvement and new lighting. 1 Airport Manager Ron O'Neil told city officials in a Wednesday memorandum that President Bush has signed a funding bill that includes about$1.4 million for the project's first phase.Congress will convene Jan.20 to complete the appropriations bill so grants can be dispersed. Spitz said that at the airport's current progress rate, city crews would not finish connecting Mormon Trek Boulevard to Highway 921 until 2006. "I don't want to wait,so we are trying to speed up the runway project,"Spitz said,adding that airport officials want to keep the north- south runway open until completion of the runway extension to ensure that two runways are always available. "We could just shut it down,but then the airport would only have one runway open," Spitz said. "So it's just for convenience.They want us to wait." The city considered funding the runway extension and allowing the federal government to pay them back,an option city officials determined not to be permissible. Karin Franklin,the city's planning and community development director,said the City Council must decide how to proceed with the project.Councilors have the option of shutting down the north-south runway regardless of progress on the east-west runway. "But that might impact the FAA funding,"she said. "I don't know the exact consequences of that decision." 2 y , .-�.. 22-it .y :1: :,ri MEMO !'i/ Howard R.Green Company Iowa City Airport Commission To: Ron O'Neil ) From: Dick Blum /(% Subject: REF: Project No. 180800J —Task Order#2—Willow Creek Routing Date: January 13, 2004 At your meeting on January 8th, two questions were raised in re the above named project. The first regarded a possible culvert to carry Willow Creek under the graded safety area at the end of Runway 7 (extended), and whether there is a potential for flooding at the outlet of the culvert. There would be an increased velocity of the water at the outlet, due to the improved flow within the culvert as compared to the flow characteristics in the open creek bed, but there would be no additional volume of water as a result. The increase in velocity might actually result in a temporary lowering of the water level at the outlet. In the construction of such structures there is often some measure taken to reduce the velocity of the water as it exits the culvert. This might be as simple as a section of heavy riprap along the bed and sides of the channel for a short distance, until the velocity is reduced to be consistent with the upstream flow. The engineering model for the culvert size determination includes this increased velocity, and it is compensated for in the results. The second question was in regard to the expected life of the culvert. For the purposes of sufficiency ratings and in cost benefit analyses hydraulic engineers set the life of culverts at 50 years, but in actuality, properly constructed culverts last indefinitely. There are many such structures in the area much older than 50 years that continue to function properly. (In Europe there are ancient Roman concrete structures still functional today.) I hope this answers your questions. If you would like more information, or if additional questions arise, please let me know. 0:\PROJ\1808001MEMO comm 1-13-04.doc r Stanley Consultants INC A SmrJey Group Company Engineering,Environmental and Construction Services-Worldwide 27 January 2004 Mr. Ron ONeil Iowa City Airport Commission City of Iowa City Municipal Airport 1801 S.Riverside Drive Iowa City,'Iowa 52246 Dear Mr. O'Neil: Subject: Supplemental Agreement No.1 Phase II-Scope of Services The enclosed Supplemental Agreement presents the Phase 11—Scope of Services (Exhibit 1)and Compensation for Phase 11 Services (Exhibit 2) for your consideration.

Mr. Harrel Timmons 58 State Rt. 164 Galesburg, IL 61401 Dear Harrel: As promised, the Iowa City Airport Manager, in collaboration with the Iowa City Airport Commission, has developed a comprehensive list of facilities improvements which are required to ensure the long term operational viability of the airport. During our last conversation, I shared with you my and the Commission's view that the City of Iowa City, the Airport hangar tenants and Jet Air, Inc., have all made significant financial commitments to our airport during the last 5 years. Additionally, the FAA and Iowa Department of Transportation are providing funding for several key capital spending initiatives, which will also foster our shared support of General Aviation. During our last conversation, we spoke of one significant user of the Iowa City Airport to whom we would like to reach-out to in a way that allows them to participate in the improvement of this valuable resource. The attached document reflects many of the needed facilities improvements, which seek leverage towards mitigating because of the negative effects of historically slow/minimal infrastructure spending at the Iowa City Airport. Please review the document. Once you have reviewed it, I would like to speak to you specifically about how a $20.00 ramp fee could be collected by Jet Air on the behalf of the Iowa City Airport. This could be done so in a way that is a win/win approach for both of our mutual interests (Jet Air's and Iowa City's). Based on your availability, I would like to give you a call Friday morning at 10:00AM to discus the opportunity before us. If for any reason the proposed date/time is not convenient, just contact me at either, (319) 337-1480 or(319) 358-7460 and offer an alternative date/time. With best regards, 6 Pi t N!COW e Baron D.

This is certainly a progressive plan and should help keep IOW a quality airport well into the future. In reviewing the IOW Airport Facilities Improvement list, it is clear this list needs to be prioritized. Following are some of my thoughts on the various items in the plan. Manage: Any items that are safety related should be prioritized by seriousness of hazard involved. Some of these items may directly affect or benefit Jet Air,Inc. and if so,Jet Air,Inc.may be able to participate in procurement or installation of these items. Surface Areas: These items are the most crucial to the long range viability of the IOW airport and are the most costly by far. These are also long range planning issues and it is critical that the priority, scheduling and allocation of funds be structured by a realistic long range master plan for the IOW airport. Some of these items are on going maintenance and some are capital improvements and should be treated separately. On going maintenance is an absolute necessity to maintain the airport infrastructure and innovative ways to reduce costs while maintaining high quality should be a constant goal of the Airport Manager and the Commission. As an example,in Galesburg,the City Park dept., Cemetery dept. and the Airport shared many of the special and expensive equipment required and purchased materials and supplies as a group to achieve better prices. A major goal should be to reduce the square yardage of surface to maintain and concentrate capital investment in projects that will expand the usefulness of the airport,like runway and taxiway improvements. The Federal Government is currently very receptive to airport improvements,especially if is classified as safety or security related. In November 2003, Congress passed a bill to allow Non-Primary airports(like IOW)to obtain up to$600,000 lump sum(4 year program)to be used for"aeronautical support facilities". This includes such items as fuel farms,hangers etc. (continued) 58 Illinois Route 164 1801 5.Riverside Dr. Galesburg,IL 61401 Iowa City, IA 52246 Phone:(309)342-3134 Phone:(319)248-1200 Fax(309)342-1078 Fax:(319)248-1202 ann*"Your Personal Airline" Buildings: Building maintenance should be a line item as part of the annual airport budget and structured to keep the facilities in presentable condition for there projected life. For some of the older hangers, it may be more practical to save the maintenance funds and plan for replacement with newer hangers that will require less maintenance and generate higher rents. Fencing and Other: Fencing is certainly an item that should qualify for some federal grant money under the justification of"Security". When in reality, security at the smaller non-airline airport is not considered and major problem. The aircraft using the facilities are smaller(than a 757!) and the users are generally well known and recognized. The obstruction mitigation is really a capital item and really should be the main responsibility of the airport owners. The City and County and all the Citizens that benefit from having a viable and productive community airport should share in this problem. The rest of these items should be carefully evaluated and prioritized. Items such as self serve jet fuel are very low priority because 99%of corporate or business turbine pilots wouldn't fuel,nor would they be qualified to fuel their own aircraft under any circumstance. Items such as the ASOS serve a valuable and necessary purpose and work quite well as they are. The IOW Airport is one the better general aviation airports in Iowa and northern Illinois. Its strength and long term viability lies in the support of all the community that uses and benefits from the facility. It is imperative that the Commission, the Airport Manager and the FBO work together to educate the community leaders and citizens that the airport is truly a public service facility just like the parks,streets and other public use assets. We must solicit more support from entities like the University, Iowa City Hospitals and businesses to publicize the importance of the airport to their operations. Almost nightly Jet Air, Inc. services emergency helicopters and aircraft that transport patients in and out of the local hospitals, certainly the airport was is of major importance to those patients. As an example,Jet Air has performed almost 150 organ transplant flights since it began operations in IOW. Most recently, January 4th, 2004 we transported a human heart from Ft Collins CO.to IOW for a patient that had been waiting for over two years. Pm sure that individual realizes the importance of the airport. The Cities near IOW airport that receive significant benefit from its services must be educated, solicited and brought into the equation for keeping and improving IOW as a 1st class facility. (continued) 58 Illinois Route 164 1801 S.Riverside Dr. Galesburg,IL 61401 Iowa City,IA 52246 Phone:(309)342-3134 Phone:(319)248-1200 Fax:(309)342-1078 Fax:(319)248-1202 The ei6enefits fro a jobs and services that are retained in the Iowa\City area because of what the area has to offer. A viable,full service airport is certainly a contributor to the progress of any vibrant community and those of us involved in the airport operations on a regular basis must make a coordinated effort to inform and involve the public. Ramp fees• As far as the ramp fees,I'm sorry but I am firmly opposed,both philosophically and as a business. Regardless how they are presented or collected,the collecting agency(FBO)is always the "Bad Guy". In addition,it is an administrative nightmare and would require additional personnel for Jet Air. IOW airport is used primarily by owner/operator aircraft and pilots and these individuals are very sensitive to costs because they are paying. They feel they are being charged to use a public service facility and they do have a choice. They can use Cedar Rapids or not come at all! Sincerely, H. W.Timmons,President Jet Air,Inc.

This board represents a broad cross section of people involved in aviation, including chambers of commerce, MPO's, travel agents, educators, business users, city officials, airport directors, FBO's and association representatives. The council also maintains diversity in geographical location and a mix between urban centers and smaller communities. Your interest in aviation issues is recognized and you have been recommended to serve on this council. The Aviation Advisory Council plays an important role in providing the Office of Aviation with feedback and direction on the state aviation policies and programs. The council also brings aviation issues at all levels to the table for discussion and ideas for actions and for resolutions. The exchange is truly two way. I am sure you will find serving on the council to be a valuable experience. The council meets quarterly in Ames,Iowa,from 10:00 am. until 2:00 p.m. to discuss a wide range of issues from general aviation topics, to air service, to safety/security concerns and land-use planning;just to name a few! Members serve a 2-year term. I look forward to working with you, and hope that you will accept this invitation to serve on the Aviation Advisory Council. The next quarterly meeting will be held in March 4, 2004. Details will be forwarded to you upon acceptance of this invitation_ Please e-mail me with your decision. If you have any questions or need additional information,please do not hesitate to call me at 515-239-1659 or e-mail me at michelle.mcenany@dot.state.ia.us. Sincerel , / ,,,ua.

Some of this may be simply a reminder. 1. Open Meetings and emails. Email communications between Commission members raise issues under Iowa's open meetings law. As a result, I advise against using e-mail to communicate with each other in any manner whereby a majority of you are discussing an item at the same time. To determine whether a violation of the open meetings law has occurred, any such occurrence would have to be examined on its own facts. However, due to the instantaneous nature of e-mail communication, use of e-mail to communicate among yourselves is problematic, and I discourage it. 2: Open Records and emails. All electronic and written communication, with limited exception,to you and from you is an "open record." Consequently, any person for any reason may request copies of this communication. Doing work on your personal computer or you wort computer does not make it"private"or"confidential"or shield it from an open records request For example, a reporter, or anyone, could request copies of all communication having to do with the strategic plan and copies would need to be provided. As a result, you may want to consider implementing a personal records retention policy such as deleting any Commission related matters after 30 days. Commission members'.replies to e-malls should advise the senders that their e-mail communications and the Commissioners' responses may be public information. 3. Discussion of Items Not on the Agenda. Occasionally a member of the public will address the Commission atthis time on the agenda. This is the time to listen to that person. A Commissioner may engage In a dialogue with that person, but it should not spill • over to the point that it becomes a discussion among the Commissioners: Also, although it is not the time to deliberate on the matter brought to you by that person, the chair may take an informal poll of the Commission to see if it should be an item on the next agenda. 4. "Commission"Time. By this, I mean the time when the Commissioners give their reports at the end of the.agenda. It is a time to apprise others of an event or a concern; it not a time to deliberate or decide. The matter itself is not on the agenda. It is appropriate to poll the Commission informally to determine whether an item should be on the agenda at the next month. If you have questions about this memo or if you would like to discuss any of this further, please do not hesitate to telephone me at 356-5030. Copy to: Ron O'Neil.
