passed 3-0.
Item A was Aviation Commerce Park (ACP). Harry Wolf of Iowa Realty presented marketing
information and discussed activity on the sale of lots.
Item B is runway 07 project. David Hughes from Earth Tech and Sue Dulek discussed Earth Tech
contract and changes that would need to be made before signing it. There was a resolution to accept
the Earth Tech contract contingent upon the changes that were discussed and after obtaining the FAA
grant. Motion moved by Clay and seconded by Williams. Resolution approved three to zero.
Item C is the 2004-2005 T-Hangar leases. The Commission discussed the rates and other issues
including methods of counting for excessive electrical use in hangars and flowage fees as they pertain
to fuel brought onto the field by tenants. It was decided to set up an ad hoc committee to look into the
electrical usage.
For item E, Mr. O'Neil discussed the progress of the obstruction mitigation process.
Item F is the strategic plan. In respect to marketing issues, Mr. Clay discussed the need for a park
area at the airport. He also discussed the need for a press kit and/or media guide.

breakfast to be held on August 29, 2004. The commission reaffirmed its support of this event.
Item H is the vertical infrastructure roof bids. Motion by Clay, seconded by Williams to accept the
lowest bid for roof repair on building B. Motion passed three to zero.
Item I -Airport Manager Performance. Hartwig offered Mr. ONeil the option to go into Executive
Session. Mr. ONeil said the Commission could not go into Executive Session since it was not on the
Agenda. Ms. Dulek said that was not necessary. Mr. ONeil did not request Executive Session. Hartwig
said he had come to the opinion that he lost trust in Mr. ONeil's ability to represent the Airport
Commission due to comments Mr.ONeil made in a public forum. Mr. ONeil gave a timeline of events
to his recollection. Mr. Clay said that Mr ONeil's bringing up at a public forum the issue that the FAA
grant was in jeopardy because of the Commission's action with respect to airport management was at
the least poor judgment and possibly misinformation. Mr.ONeil said he did not bring the issue up at
the public forum. Mr. ONeil said he was attempting to do just the just the opposite of what Mr. Clay
said. Mr. Williams asked if the people Mr. ONeil and Mr. Hartwig had talked to at the FAA were
different persons. He also said no one should do anything to jeopardize possible FAA grants. Mr. Clay
said that he had lost confidence in Mr. ONeil's ability to serve the Commission. Mr. Hartwig moved
and Mr. Clay seconded a motion to terminate Mr. ONeil's contract effective immediately. Mr. ONeil
said that entire Commission should be present to vote on this issue instead of just a majority. The
motion carried 2-1 with Mr. Williams voting no and Mr. Hartwig and Mr. Clay voting yes.
Item D- Airport budget and management. Mr. Clay wanted to discuss the budget item concerning
vehicle replacement. Mr. Hartwig said he would look into exactly what is covered and how the fund
works. He felt that the Commission does not need to purchase vehicles as often as in the past. Mr. Clay
and Mr. Williams seconded a motion to authorize the Chair to enter into negotiations with Jet Air to
effect an interim management agreement. Motion passed 3-0.
Chairperson's Report:
The Chair publicly thanked Mr. Krystenansky for his service to the Commission.

Mr. Clay offered his support for the upcoming Sertoma Breakfast

hangers and asked tenants for advice on this problem. Tenants suggested asking people to

to continue looking into cost estimates for a proposed airport park. Williams seconded the
motion and motion passed four to zero.

Plan. Time was spent describing the Iowa City Comprehensive Plan (specifically the South

� MEMORANDUM
Date: September 21, 2004
To: Iowa City Municipal Airport Commission
From: Jeff Davidson, Asst. Director, Dept. of Planning and Community Development
Re: Preparation of Iowa City Municipal Airport Strategic Plan
At your meeting on September 9 we had a good initial strategic planning session. After
reviewing the results of the stakeholder input sessions and the "givens" that we are going to
proceed with, we spent the majority of our time developing the vision statement and mission
statement on which the 5 year strategic plan will be based. Attached is the draft vision
statement and mission statement developed at the September 9 meeting. Let's plan at the
October 14 meeting to take some time to review the draft vision statement and mission
statement and determine if any further modifications are needed.
On October 14 let's plan on the balance of our time to be spent on two tasks:
Brainstorming session: what are the strengths and opportunities of the airport for
achieving the vision; what are the weaknesses and threats for achieving the vision?
2. Develop goals for achieving the vision: for a 5 year plan this is likely to be 3 to 10 items;
prioritize the goals; outline resources needed to accomplish the goals.
It is my intention to get through these tasks on October 14, which will hopefully allow for
preparation of a draft strategic plan to be presented at your November meeting.
Remember that we need to be developing a plan that is understandable to the public and has
measurable goals which will allow for periodic assessment by the Airport Manager and Airport
Commission during the 5 year strategic planning period. I have also attached for your
information the strategic planning documents from Tracy, California and Dubois County, Indiana
that were referenced at the last meeting, and a previous strategic planning effort for the Iowa
City Municipal Airport that was forwarded by Dennis Gordon.
I look forward to the October 14 discussion.

STRATEGIC PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS
Environment:
The Tracy Municipal Airport (TMA) is a non -controlled airport owned by
the City and managed by the Parks and Community Services
Department. A non controlled airport does not have a control tower but
is still under strict flight requirements for pilots to comply with while
flying in and around the area. The runways are wide, which is good
from a safety standpoint, and are in good condition. Although all of the
hangars are currently occupied, there are over 150 tie -down spots that
are vacant.
There are many users of the TMA, which results in positive economic
impacts to the City of Tracy. For example, aerobatics, flight training,
ultra -light operations, commercial operations, aircraft maintenance and
repair all result in jobs that produce revenue directly to the City, in
addition to visitors to Tracy businesses. The TMA is lacking in facilities
that airport users expect, which results in loss of potential revenue. For
example, the TMA is considered a major training airport for student
pilots. There are many pilots who fly to the TMA to practice flight
maneuvers but are not able to stay, due to the lack of facilities. Airport
users prefer amenities such as restrooms, flight planning areas,
responsive ground transportation, aircraft wash rack, eating
establishments, newer hangars, and airplane related services.
Challenges. -
The strategic concern for the Airport is that if no actions are
implemented proactively, the airport will not be able to generate
sufficient revenue to be able to be a key contributor to the future
economic development of the City of Tracy.
Other concerns of the airport are the increasing negative cash flow,
missing future business opportunities, funding airport expansion, and
boosting revenue and recreational opportunities.

The Future of Tracy Municipal Airport as a Community
Partner
In November of 2001, the Airport Advisory Committee (AAC) and the Parks
and Community Services Department began the development of a
strategic plan in order to align with the strategic goals of the City of Tracy,
reposition the Tracy Municipal Airport within the Tracy community and eval-
uate the future direction of the airport.
This effort complements the issues described in the Tracy Tomorrow
Report, and other planning documents, through proactively addressing
encroaching development, operational costs, projected revenue and future
growth opportunities.
As a direct result of the 9-11-01 incidents, there have been changes in FAA
requirements pertaining to security at airports. General aviation has seen
an increase in corporate air traffic due to long and unacceptable delays in
processing passengers at larger airports. Additionally, use of the Tracy
Municipal Airport is expected to increase in general aviation activity as the
community continues to grow.
This plan will be implemented through focusing on five strategic areas:
• Community Relations
• Economic Development
• Financial Management
• Airport enhancements
• Identifying and Safeguarding Improvements
As part of the Strategic Planning Process, the AAC and City Staff employed
a comprehensive approach by evaluating the current status of the airport,
examining future opportunities/threats and identifying affected
stakeholders. The Strategic Plan was
developed to address these
current issues as well as to
determine the future direction
of the airport.
"The purpose of this plan is to.meet
the strategic goals of the City of
Tracy, reposition the Tracy Municipal
Airport in the community, and
provide a cost effective service that
is viewed as a quality asset to
stakeholders".

The Future of Huntingburg Airport as a Community Partner
In the spring of 2003, the office of the airport manager began the development of a
strategic plan. The goal of this plan is to align the Huntingburg Airport within the
strategic goals of the regional community, reposition it within the community, evaluation
of its future direction and to become a partner in Economic Development.
As a direct result of the 9-11-01 incidents, the FAA has changed requirements pertaining
to security at airports. General aviation has seen an increase in corporate air traffic due to
long and unacceptable delays in processing passengers at larger airports. Additionally,
use of the Huntingburg Airport is expected to increase in general aviation activity as the
community economic engines continue to grow.

STRATEGIC PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS
Environment:
The Huntingburg Airport is a non -controlled airport owned by the Dubois County Airport
Authority. The airport is non controlled meaning it does not have a control tower but is
still under strict flight requirements (FAR Part 91) for pilots to comply with while flying
in and around the area. The existing runway is 5002'x75' and is in fair condition.
Although all of the hangars are currently occupied, there are future hangar development
sites available and over 10 tie -down spots that are vacant on both a new apron and grass
areas.
There are many users of the Huntingburg Airport, which results in positive economic
impacts to the Dubois County area. For example, flight training, business operations,
aircraft maintenance and repair all result in jobs that produce revenue directly to the
Airport. In 2001 according to the Aviation Association of Indiana the Huntingburg
Airport had an economic impact of $18,665,569

airport expansion, boosting revenue and recreational opportunities.

Re: Iowa City Municipal Airport Update
Dear City Council,
I apologize we were unable to attend Tuesday's council meeting and give
you this update in person. Since last month's meeting the Commission has
renewed leases on the T-hangers at the airport. Included in this year's lease was
the result of an ad -hoc committee's work on addressing increased electrical
usage. We have worked to increase co-operation with City's accounting
department which I believe will insure more accurate billing and record keeping.
As of today it appears we will have 100% occupancy.
As I informed you last month, we have hired Snyder & Associates (Mr. Bill
Flannery) to help oversee and manage on -going DOT grants. Bill has met with us
three times and has been introduced to many City staff personnel. The results at
this time exceed my expectations. Among the progress we have made is working
with the City Clerk to better organize and maintain Commission / Airport records;
beginning to assemble a basic marketing plan utilizing free/low cost material that
is available; and indirectly providing valuable information that is a result from his
20 year airport management career. This will prove a great aid in our strategic
planning.
In short, I am very encouraged by the direction and co-operation we on
the Commission have received and look forward to keeping the Council abreast
of developments. Please do not hesitate to contact any of us on the Commission
to discuss further.
