Proposal for Lease of Airport Lands - Harvesting Hay Ernst noted the letter which had been sent by Bill Ward, Ward's Landscaping. Ernst said this would be a good time to consider such a proposal with the Airport Safety Improvement Project going on. However, the harvest would be confined specific sites to the west of the runway, which would involve approximately 200 acres. This project would have to go out to bid every five years since it's on FAA Lands. MOTION: Shackleton moved to recommend to Council that bids ~e solicited for harvest of hay on specific sites west of the runway, at the Kenai Municipal Airport. Ames seconded. Passed unanimously. 7. AIRPORT MANAGER ' S REPORT 8. COMMISSION COMMENTS AND QUESTIONS Toppa said that he would be gone part of July and August. The Commission concurred to postpone meeting for the rest of the summer. The next meeting will be September 10th. Shackleton reported there has been some movement to use reconditioned contaminated soils for large construction projects. He wondered how the City would feel about using such soils in their projects, such as runway improvement, etc. ? Ernst said he would check FAA regulations on using reconditioned soils. Toppa suggested that Shackleton research the possibility of using these soils and report at next meeting. The Commission could recommend to Council using these soils during the next construction season. Toppa also asked that Ernst set up a tour of the airport for new Commission members and also the new Flight Service Station Facility Manager. Ernst set the tour for Thursday, June 18th, 2'00 p.m. and said he would invite the new Manager. KENAI AIRPORT COMMISSION June 11, 1992 Page 3 · INFORMATION ITEMS a. City Council Agenda 10.
