Thacker Raps
City Inaction
Parachute school operator Gene
Thacker has recently built a hangar on
his own property ajoining the city
airport because he says he can't get city
officials to tell him where he can expect
to erect a building on land he is leasing
at the airport, according to minutes of
the last airport committee meeting.
The minutes, which have not yet
been approved by committee members,
record the March 26 meeting.
Thacker was reported to be reluctant
to move to the newly - leased portion of
city property until he gets his fuel
moved and other details resolved
according to the minutes.
The committee was also told that a
hangar owned by William Poole and
Tom Cameron would have to be moved
from the leased area.
The committee voted to allow
Thacker to sign an agreement with the
city to continue the use of his present
property until he can establish facilities
in his new lease area.
Also discussed were the operation of
the Unicom radio and the inoperative
visual aid lights. Acquisition of an
additional piece of land was discussed
and the committee was told by city
manager John Caddy that although
previous federal grant requests had been
denied, that another application for
funds would be submitted.
The next meeting of the airport
committee is set for April 9 at 7 p.m i
city hall.
