A
Good
evening,
everyone
welcome
to
the
city
council
meeting
today
is
Thursday
August.
The
24th
I
want
to
welcome
Mr,
barger's
High
School
class
here
as
well.
So
welcome
to
our
seniors
that
are
in
the
audience
tonight.
We
have
a
pretty
good
agenda,
we'll,
like
all
the
other
meetings,
we'll
start
by
bowing
our
heads,
reciting,
the
Lord's
Prayer,
followed
by
the
Pledge
of
Allegiance
and
then
we'll
get
into
tonight's
dinner.
Thank
you.
D
C
A
A
B
A
Thank
you.
Moving
on
tonight
we
are
honored
to
have
two
of
our
Aviation
Board
of
Commissioners,
as
well
as
our
Airport
Manager
here
with
us
to
give
us
an
overview
of
the
city
of
Madison,
Municipal,
Airport
and
I'd
like
to
begin
by
first
recognizing
Eric,
obscuth,
Dick,
Goodman
and
Brent.
A
Spry
and
I
also
would
like
to
start
by
reading
a
proclamation
recognizing
the
contributions
of
Aviation
to
the
country,
as
well
as
to
our
community,
whereas
in
1939
President
Franklin
Roosevelt
issued
a
proclamation
designating
August
19th
as
National
Aviation
day
to
coincide
with
the
birthday
of
Orville
Wright.
The
first
pilot,
who
was
born
on
August
19
1871.,
whereas
August
19th
through
the
25th
2023,
is
observed
nationally
as
National
Aviation
week
to
recognize
the
importance
of
Aviation
reflect
on
the
industry
and
honor
those
that
contributed
to
the
invention.
A
Houses
aircrafts
for
local
Industries
serves
as
a
hub
for
visitors
to
Madison,
offers
flight
instruction
for
student
and
seasoned
pilots
and
plays
a
significant
role
in
the
economy
of
Madison.
According
to
the
Indiana
Department
of
Transportation
Office
of
Aviation,
the
Madison
municipal
airport,
that
was
operational
capital
and
visitors,
has
a
total
economic
impact
of
over
8
million
dollars
in
the
community
each
year.
It's
my
honor
as
mayor
Madison,
on
behalf
of
the
citizens
to
Proclaim
August
19th
through
25th
2023,
as
National
Aviation
week
and
I
want
to
present
this
to
dick,
and
thank
you
guys.
A
Also
invite
you
to
give
your
presentation
about
the
about
the
airport.
Thank
you.
Thank
you
very
much.
D
Mr
mayor
council,
Madam
Clerk,
yes,
thank
you
for
having
us
today
and
we've
got
a
presentation
we've
put
together,
which
should
cover
a
number
of
areas
and
I'll
try
to
keep
it
reasonably
short.
I
could
be
here
for.
D
They're
all
about
it,
so
I
appreciate
that
so
first
off
the
photo
here,
this
is
the
Madison
municipal
airport
is,
as
you
saw,
and
as
you
heard
from
the
mayor
when
we
started
and
I'll
go
through
a
brief
history
of
the
airport,
but
the
first
things
that
I
really
want
to
say
and
the
most
important
things
I
have
to
share
with
you
tonight.
This
is
our
community's
front
door
when
decision
makers
and
others
come
to
community.
This
is
their
first
impression.
D
D
Here's
some
general
information
give
some
of
the
history.
Some
of
the
important
things
are
when
the
run
when
the
airport
first
opened,
the
runway
was
3
200
feet
long.
It
was
as
you'll
see
in
some
of
the
Milestones.
It
was
lengthened
to
four
thousand
feet
and
then,
finally,
to
five
thousand
feet
where
it
is
now
and
and
for
what
it's
worth.
D
Airports
typically
are
these
days,
this
kind
of
airport,
five
thousand
fifty
five
hundred
there's
been
a
tendency:
a
trend
of
aircraft
manufacturers
even
for
larger
aircraft
to
design
them
to
operate
off
five
thousand
foot
runways,
even
5
000
foot
runways
with
InterContinental
range.
So
it's
it's
really
been
a
trend
to
aim
for
this
kind
of
Runway.
D
In
Madison
we
have
54
based
aircraft,
three
Jets,
one
helicopter,
the
airport's
regularly
used
by
nine
of
our
local
companies.
We
have
38
hangars,
37
of
which
were
built
with
private
capital,
and
we
have
one
large
Hangar
that
we,
the
airport
built
and
that
was
funded
through
a
rural
development.
Grant
eight
companies
on
the
field
operate
these
activities,
but
the
important
statistic
is
there
are
33
full-time
jobs
out
at
the
airport
and
I.
Don't
know
many
people
realize
it.
It's
a
business
out
there.
D
There
are
33
jobs,
as
I
said,
the
runway
is
5
000
feet,
runways
are
numbered
and
the
numbers,
the
closest
10
degrees,
to
The
Heading
on
the
compass
that
you're
going
when
you
approach
it.
So
our
runways
are
three
and
two
one
and
we
have
instrument
approaches
to
both,
which
means
the
airport
is
usable
under
all
weather
conditions.
The
approaches
One
Direction,
get
you
down
to
under
400
feet
and
the
other
gets
you
down
to
280
feet.
D
Imagine
it's
going
145
miles
an
hour.
The
wheels
are
stopped
and
you
drop
it.
That's
the
impact
load
on
a
Runway.
That's
why
runways
are
built
to
a
much
higher
standard
than
our
highways.
They
have
to
take
these
Shop
clothes
and
it's
not
getting
hit
by
18
Wheels.
It's
getting
hit
by
four
that
are
hitting
at
those
typical
tire
pressures,
120
PSI
running
up
to
the
commercials
or
whatever
yeah
up
to
200
PSI.
D
So
the
tires
are
pretty
hard,
so
just
wanted
to
share
that
with
you
get
some
insight
into
what
happens
at
an
airport
people
new
to
community.
This
is
where
the
airport's
located
as
the
mayor
mentioned,
we're
a
board
of
Aviation
Commissioners
in
Indiana.
Public
use.
Airports
are
operated
one
of
two
ways,
either
as
a
board
of
Aviation
Commissioners
or
is
an
airport
Authority,
and
they
both
have
different
organizational
structures.
Here
in
Madison
we
are
a
boac
when
I
talk
about
our
some
of
our
operating
budgets.
D
D
That's
a
lot
of
time
and
two
of
them
are
city
employees,
so
they
have
vacations
sick
days
and
whatnot.
It
takes
a
lot
of
commitment.
We
used
to
be
able
to
get
volunteers
for
part-timers,
but
things
have
changed
and
it's
hard
you.
We
can't
get
people
to
do
work
if
you
pay
them
anymore.
We've
been
fortunate
to
have
these
part-timers
but
they're
more
than
part-timers.
We
have
to
train
them.
D
They
have
to
be
trained
on
how
to
properly
Marshal
aircraft
which,
how
to
give
the
proper
signals
to
park
them
tell
them
where
to
park,
help
them
fuel.
We
have
cell
fueling,
but
a
lot
of
our
customers
want
us
to
fuel
the
aircraft
and
then
move
the
aircraft.
When
you
start
talking
about
moving
a
60
million
dollar
airplane,
you
don't
just
tell
somebody
the
first
ad
give
it
a
shot.
You
know
it
it.
We
need
to
train
these
people
and
that's
why
we
need
to
keep
them.
D
This
is
the
terminal
building
which
we
we
built,
that
that
was
funded
with
a
gaming
money
and
also
some
money
from
the
local
Tiff
fund.
I.
Think
mayor
Huntington
was
here
when
we
did
that
so
the
inside
it's
a
little
threadberry.
We
built
this
in
2020.
That's
the
original
carpet
original
carpet
original
paint
original
walls.
We
would
like
to
maybe
put
some
new
carpet
down
at
some
point:
2000
I'm,
sorry
2000.
What
was
that
built
yeah?
So
it's
20,
it's
23
years
that
that's
been
there.
D
It's
done
pretty
well,
this
is
the
city-owned
hanger
and
you
can
see
aircraft
we
park
in
there
and
the
size,
aircraft
and
number
of
aircraft,
and
we
have
the
ability
to
move
those
in
and
out.
We
can
both
put
a
Transit
aircraft.
We
rent
this
hanger
right
now,
it's
a
significant
income
generator
for
the
airport
and
that's
when
we
were
running
it
for
numerous
small
aircraft.
D
So
how
do
we
generate
Revenue?
Where
do
we
make
money?
Well,
we
have
our
tax
levy,
but
we
also
generate
revenue
on
the
airport.
When
you
take
federal
grants,
it
comes
with
a
number
of
grand
assurances
and
one
of
those
grand
assurances
is
that
any
money
generated
on
the
airport
has
to
stay
on
which
everybody's
always
been
very
good
about
the
ways
we
generate.
We
have
land
leases
for
private
hangers
and
also
land
leases
for
cropping
what
we
can
parts
of
the
airport.
We
can
crop
other
parts.
D
We
can't
crop
we're
restricted
by
the
USDA
on
on
what
areas.
As
you
all
know,
the
whole
Hilltop
meets
the
USDA
standard
of
a
wetland.
So
when
we've
cleared
areas,
they
called
a
converted
Wetland
and
we
can't
put-
we
can't
crop
it.
We
do
the
cropping
both
to
generate
Revenue
other
areas
we
put
in
grass
that
people
cut
for
hay
just
so
we
don't
have
to
pay
to
mow.
It
mowing
is
one
of
our
biggest
expenses
at
the
airport.
We
generate
money
from
the
hangar
rental
and
fuel
cells
for
Capital
Improvements.
D
We
get
federal
funds
and
again
the
importance
of
an
airport
is
infrastructure.
The
FAA
funds,
these
things
to
90
percent,
to
State,
face
five
percent
in
the
local
match
is
five
percent.
As
you'll
see
the
amount
of
money
that's
gone
into
this
airport
in
the
last
really
30
years.
The
FAA
is
not
going
to
spend
millions
of
dollars
on
a
lark,
I
mean
they
do
it,
because
it's
important
it's
an
important
element
of
our
total
transportation
system.
D
D
Hit
something
the
tug
there
and
that
generator
we
got
those
basically
the
cost
of
freight
of
getting
them
here,
the
one
generator.
How
many
hours
did
it
have
on
it,
Brent
500
hours
on
the
tug
seven
hours,
some
of
this
stuff
was
destined
to
go
to
Afghanistan
and
then
it
didn't
and
it
became
Surplus.
So
Brent's
been
really
good
about
keeping
his
eye
out
and
it's
it's
kind
of
a
semi-competitive
process.
But
when
we
see
something
it
looks
like
it'd
be
useful
to
us,
he's
he's
very
aggressive
about
trying
to
get
hold
of
it.
D
Snow
removal.
When
we
talk
about
a
commitment
of
our
employees,
one
of
the
things
we've
learned
from
years
of
experience
is
the
key
to
snow.
Removal
is
timing.
We
can't
just
wait
till
the
next
nice
day
to
clear
it.
There's
typically
after
snows
there'll
be
a
temperature
change
and
you
have
a
fairly
short
window.
If
you
get
on
it,
then
it'll
clear
much
more
easily
and
it's
much
more
effective.
D
This
is
some
equipment,
and
if
that
critical
time
is
at
four
o'clock
in
the
morning,
our
employees
and
our
volunteers
are
both
paid
and
unpaid.
Eric's
been
out
there
and
driving
some
of
this
equipment
to
to
get
the
runway
open,
so
we
can
be
open
for
business
some
years
ago
when
we
had
no
equipment
and
the
good
graces
of
the
city
would
come
out
when
they
had
the
streets
clear.
D
D
Some
of
these
These
are
both
pieces
of
surplus
equipment.
Again
we
picked
up
for
the
freight
cost.
We
have
a
grant
right
now
that
we're
in
the
middle
of
to
get
a
new
piece
of
equipment
with
a
broom
that
hopefully
will
give
us
the
ability
to
get
rid
of
some
of
the
smaller
snowfalls,
which
are
more
typical
of
what
we
get
here
here.
You
can
see
people
working
these
were
a
couple
small
broom
units
that
we
rented
to
do
the
project
and
that's
a
snow
blower
that
gets
the
snow
further
away
from
the
runway.
D
As
you
say,
you
realize
how
big?
How
big
it
is.
It's
a
mile
long,
it's
75
feet
wide.
You've
got
to
know
the
35
feet
of
taxiway
and
if
you
look
at
you
see
how
dark
that
is,
because
the
temperatures
just
right
from
moving
the
snow
out
of
the
way
we've
upgraded
the
fuel
system,
our
fuel
is
self-served,
but
a
number
of
the
use
of
the
airport
have
one
of
the
biggest
uses
is
netjets.
Their
pilots
are
not
required
to
fuel
aircraft,
so
they
some
will.
D
D
D
Type
of
aircraft
that
typical
aircraft
that
visit
us,
we
get
some
business
from
the
army,
they
will
fuel,
we
get
out
to
help
them
day
or
night.
One
of
the
things
we
hope
to
do
is
try
to
find
a
surplus
fuel
truck.
If
not,
we
may
look
at
trying
to
fund
one
down
the
road,
a
chinook
like
this.
They
really
want
to
feel
much
faster
than
we
can
feel
them.
They
want
fuel
flows,
50,
80,
gallons,
a
minute.
D
This
is
a
project
landmarks,
so
the
terminal
building
was
completed
in
2001
on
the
right
are
the
costs
that
were
associated
with
it.
The
awos
is
a
weather
reporting
system.
You
can
see
the
others.
As
I
said,
the
city
Hangar
was
a
rural
development
Grant
when
we
started
lengthy
runways,
some
of
our
projects
run
many
years
long
and
which
has
been
a
challenge
sometimes
for
the
state
Auditors
recognizing.
We
might
have
a
single
grant
that
might
be
open
for
three
years
four
years.
Even-
and
this
was
a
good
example-
they
did
engineering.
D
Then
we
had
to
move
a
road
and
then
there
was
a
phase
one,
a
phase,
two
of
the
construction.
The
mouse
f
is
an
approach.
Lighting
system
that
lets
people
successfully
and
legally
completed
an
approach
when
the
visibilities
are
low,
we
have
a
ceiling
requirement,
but
there's
also
a
visibility
requirement.
So
you
have
to
be
able
to
see
the
runway
environment
ultimately,
except
for
the
very
largest
International
aircraft.
D
D
D
If
it's
wet
that
jumps
up
to
4
500
feet,
so
you
can
see
the
dramatic
difference
between
wet
and
dry,
the
wildlife
fence
we
just
completed.
That
was
a
multi-year
project,
and
this
year
they
just
finished
up
some
improvements
to
the
paving
around
the
fuel
Farm
snowmobile.
These
are
we.
We
do
our
planning
system,
we
call
it
a
CIP,
it's
a
capital,
Improvement
program
and
we're
required
to
submit
a
five-year
plan
to
the
f
State.
The
first
step
is:
it
goes
to
the
state
when
they
basically
bless
it,
then
it
goes
on
to
the
FAA.
D
Now
these
are
it's
a
living
document.
You
review
it
a
minimum
once
a
year
and
things
may
change.
If
something
compelling
comes
up
or
a
special
program
comes
along,
where
there
may
be
a
grant
opportunity,
you
can
move
things
in
and
out
of
the
CIP
you're,
not
you're,
not
married
to
it,
but
it's
an
important
planning
document
and
the
ones
I
want
you
to
look
potential
particularly
carefully
is
in
25
we're
starting
a
Runway
rebuild
typical
Runway
lives
are
15
years
or
less.
D
D
They
actually
send
equipment
out
and
they
measure
the
durability
of
the
pavement
in
its
condition,
and
our
last
index
was
51
percent,
you
qualify
to
rebuild
when
you
fall
under
50
and
they
assume
you
do
grade
two
percent
per
year
in
the
absence
of
evidence
that
it's
so
the
FAA
is
projected
in
a
Runway
reconstruction
in
26,
and
to
do
that
the
project
will
start
in
25
with
engineering
and
letting
bids
and
six
that
will
be
the
actual
work
and
they
will
pulverize
the
runway.
It
will
be
all
gone.
Remember.
D
I
said
we
went
from
3
200
to
4
000
to
5
000.,
when
we
did
that
when
it
was
3200,
it
was
only
50
feet
wide.
When
we
went
to
75
feet,
they
just
laid
new
stuff
down
the
side
and
so
there's
a
joint
there.
So
we
get
some
longitudinal
cracking
and
we
get
lateral
cracking
on
the
runway
as
well,
and
this
is
one
of
the
things
that
really
degrades
the
life.
What's
underneath
the
runway,
it's
pretty
stunning
I
mean
some
places.
D
D
D
D
D
This
is
how
how
they
categorize
airports
and
one
of
the
things
that
that
does
is
determine
what
kind
of
funding
you
get
when
your
regionals
do.
I'll
show
you
later
what
kind
of
types
of
funding,
but
you
become
eligible
for
certain
automatic
funding
you
get
every
year
and
then
there's
other
funding,
that's
more
competitive
and
it
increases
the
amount
of
what
you
get
as
you
move
up
in
class.
D
So
as
a
local
airport,
we
get
a
hundred
and
fifty
thousand
dollars
a
year
call
entitlement
money,
and
that
is
we
just
get
it
year
in
year
out,
but
it
can
only
be
used
for
Capital
Improvements.
It
can't
be
used
for
operations.
It
can't
be
generally
used
for
anything,
that's
not
what
they
call
airside,
there's
air
side
and
land
side
terminal,
building,
hangers
or
land
side,
Runway,
Runway,
environment
lighting,
whatnot.
That's
that's
air
side.
D
Typically
you're
going
to
they're
going
to
want
to
see
that
go
for
airside
work.
There's
a
short-term
program
called
Bill
funds
and
the
entitlements
are
95
and
5
match.
That
means
90,
fed
five
State,
five
local,
the
bill
funds,
which
is
a
five-year
program.
That's
100,
there's
no
match
and
that's
part
of
what
we're
using
to
do
some
of
the
work
that
will
describe
this
projects.
We
got
underway.
D
Discretionary
funds
are
those
those
are
the
big
dollars.
That's
where
that
five
or
six
million
dollars
will
come
from
and
that
scored
and
it's
based
on
need.
It's
it's
based
on
a
number
of
factors,
not
the
least
of
which
is
how
much
local
support.
Do
you
have
how
much
private
investment
is
there
on
the
field?
What's
the
activity
level
on
the
field,
all
these
things
go
into
the
scoring
and
it's
a
competitive
program
to
get
discretionary
money.
I
didn't
show
here,
there's
one
other,
it's
a
hybrid.
D
D
What
happens,
then?
Is
it
it
can
get
shifted
around
between
FAA
funding
regions
and
even
within
States,
and
we're
in
What's
called
the
Great
Lakes
region
and
historically
Great
Lakes.
The
other
regions
and
states
can
suck
up
that
money,
what
they
call
year-end
projects
but
to
have
a
year
in
project.
Out
of
all
your
ducks
in
a
row,
you
have
to
have
it
on
your
CIP.
You
have
to
have
bids
that
are
less
than
90
days
old.
D
All
the
squares
got
to
be
filled,
eyes
dotted
T's
crossed.
So
what
we've
often
done
is
put
ourselves
in
position.
We've
got
a
project
we
want
to
do.
We
don't
bid
it
until
July,
so
we
know
that
we're
ready
to
go
and
when
those
crumbs
fall
off
the
table,
we
want
to
pick
them
up
and
we've
funded
an
awful
lot
of
things
with
those
crumbs,
but
to
the
FAA.
D
D
D
D
The
other
big
thing
we
did.
We
used
to
have
self-service
fuel
that
we
just
got
a
Flowage
rate
from
the
vendor
and
they
owned
the
fuel
when
we
started
taking
ownership
of
that.
That's
one
of
our
biggest
Revenue
sources.
Now
so
when
we
used
to
just
be
getting
50
cents
a
gallon
depending
on
the
type
of
fuel
we
make
anywhere
from
50
cents
to
two
dollars,
a
gallon
gallon
and
that's
where
we
get
some
of
that
local
funding
that
helps
fill
out
the
shortfall
in
our
budget,
the
flight
school.
We
have
Aero
club's
new.
D
Another
big
one
is
the
medical
helicopter
located
here
that
brought
19
jobs
on
its
own
you'll,
see
a
picture
here.
A
gentleman's
got
a
FAA
approved
flight,
simulator
and
just
I
think.
Is
it
tomorrow
the
official
opening
of
an
FAA
testing
center,
the
FAA
contracts?
All
the
testing
out
you
used
to
have
to
go
to
Louisville
somewhere.
We
do
have
a
number
of
student
pilots
and
people
upgrading
their
licenses
working
with
Ivy
Tech.
D
In
that
vendor,
people
will
be
able
to
now
test
here
in
Madison
over
at
Ivy
Tech,
but
that's
a
deal
that
those
worked
out
with
Ivy
Tech
and
us
upgrades
new
tax
away
lighting
system,
the
fuel
branding
again
I
mentioned
the
weather,
the
nice
thing
about
the
weather.
It
now
ties
into
the
Louisville
TV
stations,
so
when
they
tell
you
what
the
temperature
is
in
Madison
or
the
weather
conditions,
that's
where
it's
coming
from.
D
So
you
can
be
flying
toward
Madison
and
you
can
be
over
Western
Pennsylvania
and
you
can
see
what's
the
current
weather
at
Madison
you're
outside
a
radio
range
of
the
weather,
Reporting
System,
but
for
planning
purposes,
you
know
what
what's
happening
in
Madison
or
is
the
weather
coming
up
as
forecasts,
if
you're
flying
three
or
four
hours
from
somewhere
you'll,
look
at
that
weather
a
number
of
times,
you'll
say:
what's
the
weather
trending?
Are
these
things
coming
after
they
going
down?
You
know?
What
can
we
expect
when
we
get
there?
E
D
So
here's
the
lighting
system,
you
can
see
what
the
we
didn't
have:
the
blue
taxiway
lights
for
some
time,
aircraft
are
operated
under
a
number
of
different
rules:
private
aircraft
or
part
91,
there's
fractionals
or
what
they
call
91k
Charters
are
135
in
scheduled
air
carriers
at
141.,
135
of
91ks
and
135s
and
141s
cannot
leave
a
taxiway
at
night
unless
it's
lighted.
So
we
had
some
fractionals
coming
in
here
right
now,
we've
got
three
and
they
they
were
pretty
unhappy
that
we
didn't
have
lighted
taxiways.
D
So
we
built
that
end
system
and
we
got
a
grand
for
it.
One
of
the
users,
a
gentleman
here
in
town,
he
said
well,
I'll
help
pay
for
it.
I
said
I,
don't
think
you
understand
how
much
these
things
cost,
because
we
talk
about
a
lighting
system.
It's
not
just
the
light.
I
mean
there's
a
whole
building
that
goes
along
with
it,
with
all
the
equipment,
the
radio
controls
and
these
what
they
call
a
constant
amperage
systems.
D
So
those
lights,
the
primary
cabling,
runs
at
5000
volts
and
then
it
steps
down
to
Transformers
for
every
third
light.
So
it's
a
fairly
complicated
systems.
The
blue
ones
are
LEDs
less
energy.
Energy
is
a
significant
cost
for
us
at
the
airport.
When
we
do
the
runway
rebuild
the
lights
you
see
on
the
runway
will
be
switching
to
LEDs
right
now.
They're
incandescent
fuel
Farm
upgrade
that's
what
it
looks
like
now
before
it
was
pretty
ratty.
It's
also
lighted.
It
makes
it
better
when
rifting
feel
at
night.
D
D
If
you
look
to
the
left,
the
fa
definition
of
a
wet
runway's
reflected
light
so
on
the
left,
you're
seeing
reflected
light
in
the
center,
where
it's
grooved
it
drains
the
water
away,
the
grooves
actually
run
across
the
runway
and
the
runway's
crowned
in
the
middle.
Our
Runway
has
a
different
slope
on
each
half,
which
is
a
little
unusual,
but
that
goes
back
to
the
old
3200
foot
and
also
you
can
see
down
the
side
there
where
the
grooving
stops.
D
It's
a
it's
a
huge
Improvement
for
utility
of
the
airport
to
have
Runway
and
in
fact
all
runways
that
are
built
now
are
grooved.
We
did
that
through
a
grant
program.
Ours
were
not
grooves.
Originally
pavement
upgrades
is
some
of
the
parking
areas,
that's
one
area
that
we
did
a
couple
years
ago.
This
is
why
you
do
it
this
this
airplane
here,
typically
full
growth
takeoff.
That
could
be
a
hundred
thousand
pounds
and
that's
on
those
four
wheels.
The
nose
wheel
doesn't
carry
a
very
small
percentage
of
the
weight.
Jimmy
did
Eric.
D
This
wasn't
here
on
the
left.
You
you
see
a
about
an
80
or
90
million
dollar
airplane.
It
suffered
millions
of
dollars
of
damage.
It
literally
just
sank
through
the
pavement.
The
pavement
wasn't
strong
enough.
What
was
under
it
wasn't
strong
enough.
Here's,
a
FedEx
that
got
off
the
beaten
path
and
that's
what
happens
when
a
heavy
airplane
gets
onto
an
improper
surface.
F
D
That's
the
you,
the
the
Medevac
there
is
you
probably
hear
out
and
about
all
the
time
this
is
a
simulator.
That's
now
on
the
field,
is
you
can
use
up
to
15
hours
of
that,
for
your
private
license,
training,
it's
more
cost
effective
than
applying
an
actual.
You
can
do
a
lot
of
things
in
simulator.
You
wouldn't
do
I
mean
this
is
for
a
small
simulator.
This
is
a
very
sophisticated
one.
It's
got
visuals
and
it
it's
I've
flown.
It's
fun
to
fly
yeah
yeah.
D
D
Recent
Project,
Wildlife
fish
asked
about
the
deer.
This
is
about
a
1.2
million
dollar
project,
this
drug
out
for
years
and
years
fa
said
we
want
to
do
it.
Then
we
start
on
the
project.
Then
they
said.
Why
are
you
doing
it?
We
said
well,
because
you
asked
us
to
oh
yeah
yeah
go
ahead
with
it,
and
but
then
it
took
a
year-long
wildlife
study.
So
we
had
to
study
one
of
the
things
that
helped
us,
particularly
with
the
state.
D
D
One
of
the
big
deals-
and
this
was
it-
doesn't
show
up
in
things
because
there's
a
zero
crossed
undertaking
to
the
airport
in
the
city.
Again,
this
was
a
project
that
took
a
good
six
years
to
get
done
and
it
was
an
instrument
approach
to
the
runway
2-1
from
the
other
direction,
and
one
of
the
real
complicating
factors
is
The.
G
D
Ground,
that
is
still
restricted
airspace.
It's
very
important
air
supports
the
military.
They
still
use
it
for
air-to-ground
operations,
there's
a
range
in
there
and
getting
them
to
agree
to
even
on
an
intermittent
basis,
give
up
the
use
of
that
airspace
was
a
lengthy
negotiation
and
in
fact
it
didn't
happen.
D
I
think
the
mayor
spoke
with
a
congressman
who
inquired
with
the
FAA
is.
Why
is
this
taking
so
long
and
lo
and
behold,
it
was
not,
and
that
was
absolutely
due
to
the
efforts
of
the
mayor
and
our
congressman.
That
was
a
that
was
a
great
day
for
us,
so
local
projects
things
we
plan
to
do
this.
One
you
saw
the
runway
rebuild.
We
got
some
utility
upgrades
to
do.
We
only
have
single
phase
power.
We've
had
some
requests
for
three
pays
that
might
open
the
opportunity
for
other
businesses
on
the
field.
D
Who
would
need
three-phase
one
of
the
things
we've
talked
about?
One
of
our
newest
board.
Members
is
with
the
port
authority
and
he
said
some
really
creative
ideas.
There's
some
discussion
that
e-vital
electric
aircraft
may
be
used
for
short,
Haul
transportation.
They
may
need
a
place
to
base
them
we're
kind
of
between
Louisville,
Cincinnati
and
Indianapolis
that
they're
going
to
need
power
to
charge
them
up.
So
one
of
the
things
we're
wondering
about,
could
we
become
a
home
plate
for
Ev
tall
aircraft
serving
regionally
fuel
Farm
upgrade?
D
We
need
faster
pumps,
terminal,
estate's,
original
2000
interior.
We
would
like
to
do
some
work
there
at
some
point,
we're
going
to
need
another
corporate
hanger.
We
typically
going
to
try
to
work
with
a
contingent
lessee
on
that
we
are
building
a
new
maintenance
hanger
to
house
all
this
equipment.
We've
got
we
finally
qualified
to
build
that,
and
we
have
a
grant
already
established
to
to
do
that
project
starting
this
year
and
we'll
have
it
done
next
year.
D
Fuel
trucks
we're
trying
to
get
some
Surplus
ones
down
the
road
we
may
want
to
look
into
buying
one
but
they're
fiercely
expensive,
I
mean
half
a
million
dollars
is
not
out
of
the
realm
for
a
fuel
truck
more
business
is
what
we're.
After
we
want
more
activity.
We
want
more
people
here.
We
have
about
15
000
operations
a
year,
that's
done
by
it
used
to
be
done
by
microphones
and
now
it's
actually
data,
that's
collected
by
something
called
adsb,
which
is
automatic,
dependent
surveillance
aircraft
now
broadcasts
their
location.
D
It
also
means
the
FAA
can
see
you
down
to
the
ground,
are
getting
data
and
GPS
data,
so
people
that
used
to
think
I'll
cut
through
the
Proving
Ground,
because
I'm
down
at
1500
feet
and
nobody
don't
know
yeah.
They
know
we
had
a
plane
come
in
one
day
and
the
phone
rang,
and
so
this
is
Cincinnati
approach
that
plane
that
just
landed
we'd
like
to
have
a
chat
with
him,
which
is
a
pilot.
You
never
want
to
hear
those
words
call
the
tower.
D
D
D
We
operate
on
about
a
third
of
the
budget
at
most
airports
and
when
I
say
many
airports,
Seymour
Jasper,
County
Huntingburg.
Those
airports
operate
about
a
nine
hundred
thousand
dollar
year
budget,
we're
doing
on
a
shoestring,
it's
known
through
the
state,
most
people
that
can't
be
done
in
we're
struggling
a
bit.
We
used
to
get
a
little
more
support
in
terms
of
contribution
from
you
all.
D
By
doing
that,
we
were
able
to
take
some
of
the
revenue
that
we
had
generated
on
the
field
and
pay
some
of
these
bills
that
the
biggest
bills
really
are
these
matches.
We
have
not
come
the
council
for
a
match,
I
think
in
15
or
20
years
we
were
self-funding,
those
right
now,
I,
don't
think
we're
going
to
be
able
to
do
that.
So
we
could
really
use
some
more
budget
support
in
order
to
really
justify
that
people
need
to
know
what
we
do,
how
we
contribute
to
the
community.
Why
we're
there?
D
We
really
encourage
people
to
come
visit
the
airport.
This
was
an
aircraft
that
visited
us
recently
that
happens
to
belong
to
Scots,
Turf
and
Seed,
whatever
they
call
themselves,
that
was,
they
were
here
in
business,
people
come
and
go
may
have
not
realize
we're
here.
That's
a
good
example
that
airplane
weighs
about
50,
000
pounds,
I!
Think
it's
a
longitude
I!
Guess
that's
what
it
is.
D
D
Yeah
and
we
we
get
a
fair
amount
of
traffic
coming
up
from
Louisville
people,
student,
pilots
and
they'll
do
what's
called
a
touch
and
go
where
they'll
land
and
take
off
and
that's
two
operations,
the
Scots
you
know
planes
are
coming,
they
leave
that's
it's
two
operations
and
they
are
counted.
That's
not
a
pie
in
the
sky
number,
the
not
every
aircraft
has
adsb.
D
The
state
has
an
algorithm
where
they
know
roughly
what
percentage
of
aircrafts
have
adsb
and
what
don't
and
they
take
the
adsb
data,
and
then
they
correct
it
for
what
percentage
of
aircraft
would
not
be
adsb
equipped
at
that
kind
of
airport,
so
for
a
local
airport
or
Regional
Airport,
they
know.
Maybe
17
percent
are
not
adsb
equipped,
let's
say
a
national
airport.
It
would
be
like
two
percent,
so.
A
A
D
Our
biggest
Revenue
generators
and
the
turbine
aircraft
tend
to
buy
fuel
if
nothing
else,
a
turbine
aircraft
or
jet
airplane.
When
it
visits
an
airport,
it's
considered
bad
form
not
to
make
a
courtesy,
purchase,
courtesy
purchase
for
a
that
kind
of
airplane
is
150
gallons,
which
might
from
an
operation
standpoint
somebody
flying
in
a
much
smaller
request.
They
assess
the
172.,
they
might
buy
15
or
20
gallons,
and
we
make
less
on
that.
D
But
them
coming
helps
us,
because
those
traffic
counts
are
part
of
that
algorithm
that
the
FAA
uses
for
discretionary
funding.
So
we,
like
the
traffic,
count
it's
important
to
us,
so
we
don't
discount
that
the
little
guy
coming
is
just
as
important
to
us
as
the
big
guy.
He
may
not
make
bring
us
as
much
money
on
a
fuel
sale
or
any.
We
don't
charge
any
fees
for
people
Landing
in
Madison,
but
that
traffic
account
may
bring
us
significant
dollars
through
is.
D
For
the
municipal
airport
yeah,
it's
not
until
you
get
into
the
regional
airports
or
typically
fees
and
and
those
can
generate
some
real
ill
will
recently,
the
aopa,
the
aircraft
owners
and
pots
Association
now
publishes
a
guide
of
who's
charging.
What
some
of
the
bigger
airports?
The
there's
been
a
lot
of
consolidation
in
the
what
they
call
the
FBO,
the
fixed-based
operator
industry,
and
there
are
now
four
big
Nationals
that
have
gone
around
tried
to
buy
people
up
and
they've
bought
them
up.
D
They
charge
a
pretty
good
size
fees,
they
might
charge
you
150
200
300
to
walk
through
the
dorm
and
their
fuel
prices
are
exorbitant,
I
mean
they
I've
seen
fuel
prices.
What
do
we
charge
right
now?
Brett,
we're
570
for
Jed
a
you'll
see
prices,
seven
dollars
nine
dollars.
You
get
to
a
place
where
they
really
don't
want.
You.
There,
like
Logan
at
Boston,
11
12,
a
gallon.
D
So
it
that
is
a
kind
of
a
hot
hot
button
item
and,
as
I
said,
the
aopa
is
trying
to
work
around
that
by
publishing
what
these
are.
So
one
of
the
things
that
they're
trying
to
get
through
Congress
to
build
that
Eric's,
referring
to
is
some
of
these
big
airports,
say
you're,
going
to
have
a
public
parking
area.
That
airport
was
paid
for
with
public
money
and
you
don't
have
a
right
to
say
a
guy
showing
up
in
his
Mooney.
D
You
shouldn't
be
charged
him
to
300.
He
should
have
a
place
where
he
can
go
park
and
go
out
the
gate
and
not
pay
anybody
anything
because
the
taxpayers
paid
for
that
now,
where's
the
taxpayer
money
come
from.
It
comes
from
two
places
for
general
aviation:
we
pay
21
cents
a
gallon
on
on
fuel,
and
that
goes
into
the
aviation
trust
fund.
D
The
airlines
pay
about
a
nickel
a
gallon
into
that,
but
they
also
charge
a
federal
excise
tax
on
your
ticket,
a
ticket
tax
and
that
ticket
tax
also
goes
into
that
Aviation
trust
fund.
So
when
we
talk
about
FAA
money,
that's
not
coming
from
the
general
fund.
That's
not
coming
from
the
taxes
we
pay
the
IRS,
it
all
comes
from
people
using
the
system.
D
A
They
did
thank
you
and
describe
describe
to
counsel
in
the
community
the
board
structure
and
how
long
you
and
Cliff
have
been
on
the
board.
Here
are
the
two
veterans.
D
A
As
you
know,
we
have
Madison
Railroad
and
we
thought
there
would
be
some
good
benefits
by
having
you
know:
Adam
robillard
who's,
the
general
manager
at
the
railroad
beyond
the
board
of
Aviation
Commissioners
and
really
start
talking
about.
You
know:
Transportation
related
industry
matters
and
you
know
just
trying
to
find
out
if
there's
any
synergies
between
the
two
Transportation
businesses
that
the
city
owns.
B
A
Well,
very,
very
great
information
I
really
appreciate
it
and
thank
you
for
pulling
it
together
so
quickly
after
I
reached
out
to
you
council.
Do
you
have
any
questions
for
dick
or
Eric
or
Brent
I.
D
And
hangarmint
will
be
to
be
seen
well,
they'll
be
gone,
but
they
still
own
the
hangar.
So
we'll
see
whether
we'll
see
how
kind
or
less
he
is
whether
he's
enthusiastic
about
continuing
to
pay
his
rent
in
the
absence
of
using
the
Airport
I
would
I
would
argue
that
if
he
didn't,
someone
else
might
want
to
jump
in
and
use
that
space
you
might
want
to
not
lose
his
place
so
that
we'll
negotiate.
D
D
We
do
we
have
a
lot
of
space
there
and
again
all
these
things
are
phased.
We
we
have
of
the
hangar
row,
that's
open
right
now.
One
of
those
spots
is
spoken
for
there's
still
two
open
ones.
When
those
fill
up,
then
we
will
apply
for
a
grant
to
build
another
row
in
order
to
help
fund
our
part
and
what
we
do.
When
someone
leases
a
hanger,
we
charge
an
impact
fee
and
I
mentioned
we
have
the
land
leases.
D
So
when
we
lease
the
Farmland
we're
leasing
that
for
a
hundred
and
twenty
dollars
an
acre,
if
you
look
at
what
we
charge
in
the
land
lease
on
the
hangers,
the
old
leases
we're
charging
2500
an
acre
per
year.
Now
people
aren't
using
a
whole
acre,
but
if
they
did
that's
what
it
would
be
and
we
mayor
suggested,
we
increase
our
rates,
so
the
new
rate
is,
we
would
be
charging
5
thousand
dollars
an
acre
so
relative
to
what
we
get
for
the
Farmland
hangers
are
a
good
deal
and
it's
a
good
deal
for
users.
D
I
mean
one
of
the
reasons
that
we
were
so
aggressive
about
how
we
set
up
our
lease
structure
was
one
to
bring
people
to
the
community.
We
wanted
to
bring
private
investment
to
the
airport
again
to
score
with
the
FAA,
and
we've
had
37
private
hangers
built
that
they
paid
for
entirely
and
they
simply
have
a
land
lease.
A
F
A
Week
and
that's
why
I'd
reached
out
to
you
not
only
because
honor
you
know
Aviation
week,
but
also
the
preview
of
the
importance
of
the
airport
and
Railroad,
and
you
know
other
businesses
the
city's
involved
in
what
contributes
to
the
city
infrastructure,
I.
A
D
I
would
say,
as
a
board
I
don't
think.
We've
done
a
very
good
job,
probably
the
last
10
or
15
years
being
involved
with
Council
we've,
just
kind
of
as
a
mayor
point
out,
we've
kind
of
operated
in
our
own
little
world
out
there
between
the
money
that
we
got
from
the
budgetary
process
and
what
we're
generating
on
the
field.
We
didn't
need
to
come
ask
for
anything,
and
probably
we
should
have
been
at
least
telling
you
more.
What
was
going
on
I
mean
that's
a
lot
of
money,
I.
F
A
D
D
There's
some
cities
wanted
to
close
airports
and
one
of
the
mechanisms
is
they
have
to
pay
the
money
back
after
fighting
numerous
alphabet
soup
organizations,
you
don't
ever
want
to
see
an
airport
close,
so
the
amount
of
money
you
pay
back,
the
FAA
can
sometimes
payable
for
the
legal
costs.
They'll
get
the
aopa
the
NBA.
All
these
alphabet,
soup
organizations
don't
want
to
see
any
airport.
Close
and
Airport
closures
are
very
rare,
I
mean
there's,
maybe
one
a
year
to
a
year.
D
D
D
A
restoration
we
got
the
restoration,
we've
got
two
repair
operations.
We've
got
an
AG
spraying
operation
of
other
people
whose
jobs
are
full-time
out
there
associated
with
Pilots.
As
I
said
there,
there
are
four
based
jet
aircraft
or
three
and
those
are
full-time
employees
that
operate
those.
So
those
are
that's.
We
had
I.
Actually,
when
Brent
I
said
how
many
jobs
are
out
here
and
he
said,
30
I
said:
let's,
let's
add
that
up.
F
D
A
C
A
D
And
on
the
private
side
we
have
things
like
boys
and
girls.
Club
I
mean
it
serves
County
and
people
from
other
states.
We
don't
really
get
support
there.
Bethany
just
gave
a
wonderful
donation
to
the
Boys
and
Girls
Club,
which
is
very
helpful
to
answer
your
question
not
right
now,
and
that
would
be
something
that
would
need
to
be
explored.
If
that's
the
wishes
of
the
council
or
the
County
Council,
we
serve
at
the
pleasure
of
the
mayor.
B
D
That's
that's
a
threshold,
and
what
do
we
call
the
AC
b1c,
whatever.
F
F
D
Those
those
categories
when
I
say
the
300
operations.
It's
also
that's
based
upon
the
approach
speed
of
the
aircraft,
which
is
a
relative
measure,
how
big
they
are
so
mostly
aircrafts
that
we
have
their
their
approach,
speed
and
it's.
In
fact,
your
minimums
on
the
charts
are
based
on
your
category
and
size
and
your
speeds,
so
a
heavier
aircraft
would
if
there
are
300
operations
here
and
that's
takeoff.
Landing
would
be
two
that
kicks
you
into
that
next
category,
but
for
us
it
would
mean
building
a
new
taxiway.
D
D
D
D
D
Quonset
building
that
went
back
to
the
airport's
original
construction
and
this
King
Air,
which
is
a
twin
engine,
turbo,
prop,
came
in,
and
these
three
guys
had
their
three
-piece
suits
on
and
they're
walking
across
the
ramp
and
Bill
was
sitting
in
a
chair.
They
didn't
see
and
they
were
maybe
from
me
to
you
and
they
were
speaking
the
one
guy
said
geez.
Would
you
like
to
live
to
live
in
Bill
mentioned
that
to
Mayor
Huntington
and
that's
when
Al
said.
We
need
to
do
something
about
that
now,
fast
forward.
D
Engine
three:
you
know
three
engine
jet
out
there
pretty
big
Air
flight.
It's
sitting
out
there,
and
here
comes
this
Entourage
into
the
terminal.
I
happen
to
be
over
there
again.
Maybe
sitting
in
a
chair
may
be
invisible.
There
were
five
or
six
in
this
Gaggle
and
it
was
obvious
that
the
alpha
person
in
this
was
a
a
lady
who
was
rather
handsomely
dressed
and
she
looked
around
the
terminal
and
she
looked
up
and
she
said
I
like
this,
we'll
be
back.
D
D
A
E
D
A
We
have
a
couple
other
reports
we're
going
to
do.
Let's
follow
up
I'll
ask
Chief
Wallace
to
give
you
an
update
on
the
saturation
Patrol.
They
did
over
Riverfest
weekend.
H
Evening,
Council
I'll
I'll
be
brief.
We
periodically
throughout
the
year
do
a
saturation
Patrol,
which
is
essentially
that
they're
bringing
on
some
additional
officers
from
the
PD
and
joining
forces
with
our
counterparts
at
the
Sheriff's,
Office
and
saturate
the
area
in
which
we
feel
that
they're,
you
know
maybe
some
narcotic
activities
going
on
or
traffic
issues
or
dangerous
drivers.
So
those
are
the
three
areas
that
we're
really
trying
to
focus
on.
H
So
we
conducted
one
of
those
over
last
weekend
last
Saturday
night
for
a
five
hour
period
of
time
had
a
total
of
13
officers
participate,
nine
from
the
PD
and
then
four
from
the
Sheriff's
Office
and
the
final
totals
we
end
up
with
41
traffic
stops
37
written
warnings,
four
citations,
six
arrests
and
deployed
our
canines
six
times.
H
Those
arrests
included
several
DUIs
and
and
one
individual
actually
had
an
active
warrant
out
for
their.
So
again,
we
do
this
periodically
throughout
the
year,
try
to
coincide
with
maybe
a
lot
of
activity
in
the
community
and
hopefully
make
a
significant
impact
difference
with
this.
It's
also
a
good
thing:
building
camaraderie
at
the.
H
Program
one
other
thing
I
may
touch
upon
real
quick
is
our
four
gentlemen
at
the
Academy
graduated
last
Friday.
They
all
all
did
well
they're
back
with
us
and
they
started
this
week
with
their
field
training
program.
It's
a
six
week
long
program
led
by
be
I've,
said
in
on
a
few
of
the
courses
and
heard
some
of
the
comments
from
these
younger
officers
who
feel
that
some
of
the
information
are
getting
through
officer.
Wimpy's
courses
are
probably
more
informative
than
what
they
even
received
at
the
Academy,
so
very
proud
of
that
program.
H
You
graduated
from
Academy
and
they
threw
your
keys
well,
actually,
you
threw
your
keys
for
you
went
to
the
academy
and
said:
go
get
them
tiger,
so
we
We've
really
expelled
upon
that,
and
it's
really
a
good
program
so
really
excited
about
these
four
officer.
H
Suite
will
be
back
on
September
4th
from
his
eight
months
in
Kosovo.
We're
excited
to
get
him
back
and
you.
H
've
been
down
and
out
just
a
little
bit
by
Personnel
wise
to
really
really
getting
ready
to
take
off
and
and
once
we
do
that,
then
there's
a
lot
more
things.
We
can
accomplish
obviously
you're
on
one
side
of
the
aspect
trying
to
get
by
day
to
day.
Now,
we'll
be
more
in
that
proactive
aspect
where
we
start
running.
A
Those
additional
research
resources
are
really
going
to
help
us
with
our
Public
Safety
initiative,
particularly
traffic,
absolutely.
H
A
H
A
H
H
Appreciated
quite
often
Law
Enforcement
Officers
will
hold
things
in.
You
see
a
lot
to
explain,
sometimes
afraid
to
show
our
emotions
or
afraid
to
let
somebody
know
that
something.
That's
bothering
us.
So,
with
this
program
we
will
have
a
a
therapist,
essentially
not
on
staff
but
available
to
US
24
7..
The
officers
can
go
to
this,
this
young
lady,
with
any
issues
they
may
be
having
emotionally
and
it's
all
held
in
confidence.
H
It's
also
required
that
they'll
be
meeting
with
her,
neither
face
to
face
once
a
year
to
have
a
sit
down
meeting
and
see
if
there's
anything
that
she
can
help
us
out
with
so
opening
that
Avenue
up
for
the
officers,
I
feel
would
be
beneficial
and
hopefully,
if
they
are
hurting
for
whatever
reason
it
may
be,
that
they
thought
it
was
important
to
to
create
that
opportunity.
For
the.
G
H
That
program
is
in
place
along
with
now
through
the
Bethany
foundation's
aeds,
we'll
have
an
AED
in
each
each
squad
car.
We
have
them
in
the
office
now
once
we
get
them
disseminated,
each
each
police
officer
throughout
the
entire
County
will
have
an
AED
if
we
don't
need
it
on
anybody,
but
but
that's
going
to
be
it's
going
to
be
available
and
we
appreciate
all
that
Foundation
is
doing.
Of
course,.
A
The
support
from
Bethany
Legacy
foundation
for
the
city-
it's
been
phenomenal
and
literally
the
support
they're
giving
across
the
county
has
been
great,
there's,
probably
not
a
week
that
doesn't
go
by
where
you're
reading
about
a
new
program,
a
new
investment
collaborations
co-funding
and
investing
in
different
initiatives
that
promote
health
and
wellness
across
the
community.
So
they've
been
doing
phenomenal
and
I'm
proud
of
our
staff
here,
who
are
also,
you
know,
capitalizing
on
that
relationship
and
bringing
some
new
services
and
new
investment
to
the
city
as
well.
H
Say
coincide
with
that
or
Grant
the
Health
Securities
has
been
approved
and
we'll
be
starting
on
Security
on
Bond
drive
camera
wise,
so
we'll
have
the
entire
similar
to
what
we
have
on
Main
Street
Bond
drive,
we'll
we'll
have
security
cameras
as
well.
So
that's
that
should
be
starting
up
fairly
soon,
that
Grant's
been
secured
and
you
ever
got
done
a
Homeland
Security
Grant
a
lot.
F
E
H
H
Our
field
training
officers,
which
we
have
a
staff
of
six
now
we'll
we'll
all
get
together
and
evaluate
each
one
and
make
a
determination
if
they're
ready
to
ready
to
go
out
on
their
own,
but
we'll
shame
in
it.
We
don't
rush
it
if
they're
not
ready,
they're,
not
ready.
F
A
G
Yeah,
thank
you.
Council
to
our
colleagues
at
the
airport.
I
was
just
compliment
them.
As
you
will
know
the
developers
we
have
come
to
town
often
one
one
such
developer
is
also
president
of
a
of
an
International
Airport
board
and
he's
always
been
very
impressed
with
the
way
we
operate
and
the
way
they've
been
received.
What
they've
landed.
So
we
should
just
give
kudos
of
that.
It
does
matter
so.
G
I
didn't
want
to
give
a
little
bit
update
on
some
economic
development
activity,
we're
working
with
the
county
and
the
County
Commissioners
and
County
Council
on
a
couple
Alternative
Energy
opportunities
that
have
come
into
the
county
and
we're
working
through
those
currently
we're
trying
to
continue
to
deal
with
some
housing
strategies,
as
it
relates
to
Bringing
housing
units
into
the
Madison
Jefferson
County
Market.
G
I
would
also
say:
we've
got
a
great
partnership,
not
just
with
folks
within
the
city,
but
also
our
nonprofits
in
the
community
I'm
working
hand
in
hand
with
the
master
Main
Street
program
on
a
number
of
opportunities
in
our
downtown
a
couple
of
restaurant
opportunities
here
and
continue
to
work
with
them,
as
well
as
VMI
on
our
tourism
enhancements.
So
we
want
to
congratulate
and
keep
keep
those
non-profit
relationships
strong
and
we're
doing
a
really
good
job
there.
G
If
you
drive
up
there,
you'll
see
a
lot
of
activity
and
some
new
equipment
there's
some
exciting
news
to
come
here
in
the
next
couple
weeks
as
it
relates
to
the
Madison
Railroad
Oak
Hill.
We
had
a
great
city
council
meeting
there,
we're
just
in
the
punchless
stage
on
a
few
minor
details
that
are
left
to
be
done.
G
We
have
lit
the
three
entrances
into
the
community
with
solar
lighting.
It's
our
first
attempt
at
solar
lighting
and
those
three
now
are
lit,
welcoming
people
at
night
to
our
community
on
State
Road,
7
421
and
at
56
and
62..
So
that
is
complete.
Our
Duke
LED
project
is
almost
complete,
should
be
done
by
the
end
of
September.
That's
where
we're
replacing
the
old,
sometimes
30,
40
year
old,
metal,
Halon
street
lights,
with
new
LED
technology,
as
which
will
save
us
tens
of
thousands
of
dollars
a
year
in
electricity
with
Duke
Energy.
G
The
super
overlook
today,
I
I
was
informed,
we're
going
to
be
starting
phase,
two
of
that
which
is
the
terracing
on
the
left
and
right
side
of
the
super
Overlook
on
September
11th.
That
was
delayed
a
little
bit
because
of
regatta
and
then
also
for
the
pleasure
boaters.
So
that'll
start
back
up
here
in
September
our
Gateway
project.
G
If
you
drive
down
there
today,
you'll
notice,
it's
been
seated
in
straw
and
all
the
Landscaping
is
complete,
we'll
be
entering
that
punch
list
here
in
the
next
week
or
two,
and
that
project
will
not
be
completed
until
the
Arts
installed.
We
are
have
selected
three
artists,
a
public,
Arts
commission
and
a
committee
locally
have
selected
three
artists.
They
visited
the
community
about
a
month
ago
and
are
out
being
creative.
G
We
hope
and
inspired
by
their
visits
and
we'll
be
back
in
in
October
to
make
some
public
presentations
of
their
designs
for
that
committee
to
make
some
recommendations
to
the
public
Arts
Commission
in
November,
and
we
hope
that
project
to
be
installed
by
June
of
next
year,
EV
Chargers.
We
have
five
active
now
in
the
community.
Just
a
few
months
ago,
we
only
had
two.
G
Those
five
are
all
active:
two
at
Mulberry
two
at
Maine
and
one
at
the
Bridge
Approach
parking
lot,
all
of
which
are
being
run
by
an
app
called
amp
amp
up
amp
up
that
app
is
will
be
active
and
we
will
be
charging
the
Board
of
Public
Works
authorized
charging
at
those
Chargers
25
cents.
A
kilowatt
hour
plus
all
the
appropriate
taxes
and
fees
associated
with
using
the
app
we
hope
to
have
that
up
and
running
here
in
the
next
week.
As
soon
as
the
signage
is
finished,
Gaines
Park
we're
excited
it's
under
construction.
G
If
you
drive
down
there,
the
playground
equipment
honoring
their
school
colors
from
that
Broadway
School,
the
purple
and
gold
it'll
be
a
highlight
in
that
Park
September
16th
be
looking
for
some
invitations
on
ribbon
cuttings
for
that
evening.
For
the
Broadway
reunion
we'll
be
celebrating
that
ribbon
cutting
for
their
Festival
that
evening,
Crystal
Beach,
the
16
inch
slabs
are
being
poured
as
we
speak
throughout
the
floor
of
the
new
pool.
The
diving
well
is
complete
and
you'll
start
to
see
other
activity.
G
All
the
pumps
filters
are
in
the
basement
and
all
that
plumbing
is
about
done
and
we'll
be
pouring
a
lot
of
concrete
over
the
next
month
and
the
contractors
saying
we're
we're
on
schedule.
So
it's
been.
It's
been
a
good
process:
Sunrise
Crossing,
if
you
you've,
been
seeing
the
Facebook
post
and
want
to
apologize
to
the
community
for
the
inconvenience
on
Michigan
Road,
one
more
week
of
maybe
inconvenience.
G
Next
week,
we've
got
striping
and
to
finish
this
traffic
light,
but
you're,
seeing
the
decorative
lighting
being
installed
along
Michigan
road
traffic
lights,
up
Paving
was
done.
Yesterday,
we've
got
striping
to
go
and
some
landscape
architectural
work
to
complete
here
over
the
next
two
months,
TJ
Maxx
met
with
the
new
manager
she's
moving
here
from
out
of
town
with
her
family
and
we're
excited
about
having
a
new
resident
of
Madison.
She
and
her
two
kids
and
her
husband
will
be
here
in
the
next
30
days.
G
They
will
be
opening
September,
10th,
September,
10th,
TJ
Maxx
that
day
can
fluctuate
just
a
little,
but
we're
excited
about
that.
It's
a
little
ahead
of
schedule
from
what
we
heard
a
month
ago.
We
still
we
still
anticipate
Hobby
Lobby
opening
by
the
end
of
September
and
then
Kohl's
by
the
end
of
October,
so
we're
tentatively
scheduling
an
October
30th
ribbon
cutting
in
celebration
with
the
developers.
G
All
our
participants
in
the
community
on
October,
30th
and
finally
I'm
really
happy
to
say
after
a
long
18
months
and
several
years
of
conversation
that,
as
of
yesterday
afternoon,
the
Dollar
General
Corporation
did
officially
approve
the
DG
Market
in
our
downtown.
We
will
be
closing
on
that
property
in
the
next
30
days
with
the
developer
and
they
have
requested
the
project
to
be
open
by
May
of
next
spring.
So
it'll
be
a
fast-paced
project
here,
the
developers
up
to
the
challenge
the
city's
up
to
the
challenge.
G
We
have
some
Investments
to
make
and
we're
really
excited
about
that
and
want
to
thank
the
council
and
all
those
in
the
community.
Who've
supported
that
process
over
the
last
several
years,
and
especially
the
last
last
12
months
as
we've
moved
Tighter
and
Tighter
with
the
Dollar
General
market.
So
the
DG
Market
is
official,
be
looking
for
construction
to
start
very
very
soon.
So
we're
excited
about
that
excellent.
Okay,.
A
Tony,

news,
we'll
move
on

the
agenda:

for
a
bill
on
second
reading.
C
A

Thank

Nothing
on
miscellaneous,
we'll
open
the
floor
up
to
public
comments.
If
there,
if
there
is
anyone
present
who
would
like
to
address
the
mayor's
office
in
city
council,
please
do
so
by
coming
to
the
podium
and
providing
your
name
and
address
and
making
your
your
comments.
Please.
A
Not
I'll
move
to
some
brief
comments
just
want
to
let
the
community
know
that
City
made
an
announcement
just
a
little
while
ago,
the
city
of
Madison
fire
department
will
be
having
a
kind
of
a
pop-up
Splash
Pad,
which
was
fun
during
National
Night
Out
they'll
be
doing
that
on
Saturday
afternoon
of
Bicentennial
Park.
So
look
for
that
we'll
have
our
budget
Workshop
next
week,
we're
all
planned
for
that
and
last
week
or
I'm
sorry.
A
Earlier
this
week
we
did
Issue
a
after
the
Board
of
Public
Works
meeting
storm
water
RFP
for
services
to
update
our
ordinances,
which
is
required
since
the
city
of
Madison
is
an
ms4
Community.
We
have
to
have
an
updated
ordinance
by
next
spring.
We're
also
using
this
opportunity
to
not
only
develop
new
policies,
but
also
do
an
inventory
of
the
city
of
Madison
storm
water
infrastructure
and
network,
so
that
we
can
properly.
A
You
know,
devise
the
policies
for
improved
storm
water
management,
which
is
which
is
critical
for
our
community,
but
also
has
been
lacking
the
investment
that
it's
needed
for
many
many
years.
I
will
stop
there.
Thank
everybody
for
being
here
tonight.
If
there
are
any
questions
comments
that
Council
would
like
to
make,
please
do
so
not
we'll
entertain
a
motion
to
adjourn
foreign.
