The Airport Board of the City of Fairhope Alabama met April 29, 1986
at 8:00 A.M. at the City Administration Building, 161 N. Section
Street, Fairhope, Al.
Present: Chairman Mason McGowan, members Trisha Nelson
Jim Gaston and Russ Kilgore. M.L. Aust, Project
Engineer was also present
M.L. gave a project report on the construction. He said the base is
on the runway on all areas, they need to bring it up to compaction
they will check the grade today and sealcoat the asphalt. He sent
a letter today about the design mix. They had promised it 3 different
times and as yet they still don't have one they can use. He said
it would be close on being ready for the Conquistadors. The Board
talked again about welcoming them through the Industrial Board.
M.L. further reported that the buildings on the land purchased
from the Spitzers was looked into as far as renting or selling and
found out it was not feasible to sell them, possible we could put
them out for bid and have everything moved.
Russ reported on the two bids he had on the T-hangars. One from
OSI at $58,000.00 and one from Full Fab -the same amount but they
were nested. Russ recommended taking the one from Full Fab as it
is what we wanted. It was discussed the City doing site improvements
and pouring the slab for these. Russ asked if the City would erect
the buildings if an engineer is furnished to come down for two days
and supervise. Upon asking it was decided that the city crews did
not know how to erect these and a crew would have to be rented.
The question of needing some dirt in this area came up and M.L.
said he could have the men put the dirt in this area as they clear
other areas. All decided to see what a construction crew might
cost and go ahead with moving the dirt to this area.
M.L. presented the bills ready for payment: he had an invoice
for $2,562.75, $3,902.75, an invoice from Givens Surveying & Engineering Co
for $660.00; a contractor's bill for $9,633.15 and bills from Jim Reid $45.00
and Parker Fickling Hartmann and Hanak $1,539.00 totaling $18,342.65.
Jim Gaston moved to make a draw and pay bills when funds become
available. Trisha Nelson seconded and motion carried unanimously.
There being no further business, meeting was duly adjourned.
