Section Street Present: Chairman Sue Mason; members Jeanette Puckett, Mike Baugh, Khim Vira, Bill Payne and Robert Coiling. Secretary Betty Rivenbark was also present The minutes were approved as published. A proposal from APG, Inc. of Picayune, Miss. was considered by the board. It was decided that this needs to go to Wayne Smith, the Purchasing Agent, for his study and then ask him to get back with Ms. Mason on how this compares with our supplier now, and would it be advantageous for us, as well as since we now have 2 wishing to do this do we need to go to the bid process? We had a bill from Tut Wynne .for $530.79. A motion was made by Bill Payne, seconded by Robert Coiling to pay, motion carried unanimously. Sue mentioned that we had 3 propos-als to consider today: N486MJ, Inc. Teledyne Continental Rohr Tony Gee, Chief Pilot and Brad Harris were here representing N486MJ, Inc. who had written a letter of proposal for leasing space. Mark Reed is the owner of the plane. They had requested leasing an office above the lobby area, approxi- mately 260 sq. ft. for $150.00 a month. In the letter he stated they had recently purchased an Auxiliary Ground Power Unit which they will make available to people at the airport who might need it. Further discussion about their needs and what available and use of the APU led to Sue saying she would get with Tut Wynne to have a Hold Harmless Agreement drawn up for anyone who might use the APU and that it would only be used by others in an emergency situation only. Mike Baugh moved to rent the space they were asking for: upstairs over the pilot's lounge for $150 a month for 6 months, with the understanding that we can use their APU, with them having 1st priority, in emergency situations, and with a hold harmless agreement being signed by any users. Khim Vira 2nd and motion carried unanimously. They mentioned something about a bad outlet and Sue said we will get Aaron to check it out. They also said they would like to see the weather station fixed or replaced(we will talk to Aaron) . John Cameron had submitted an application to strip and paint airplanes at the airport. Sue said they are a small operation so did not have much to sumbit. This was tabled to next month's meeting. Teledyne Continental Motors had sent some information. Further information led to the board deciding they wished some more detailed information from them. Mike Baugh said he is friends with Al Beech and would be glad to talk with him further and explain what we are looking for and mention what they would be willing to pay. Sue also said that Rohr has not received anything from the main office from Chula Vista, Calif. but that they still want the building. We are waiting to get word from them. It was the consensus of the board to give Mike time to talk with Teledyne, see if we can get something from Rohr and then get back together to discuss what we found out. There being no further business, meeting was duly adjourned.
