  • CITY/COUNTY JOINT AIRPORT BOARD MEETING MINUTES August 23, 2016 Mission Field, Livingston 12:00 Noon
    CITY/COUNTY JOINT AIRPORT BOARD MEETING MINUTES August 23, 2016 Mission Field, Livingston 12:00 noon Members Present: Ray Sundling, Chairman Don Wilson Dennis Skattum George Denton Noreen Burg, Secretary Members Absent: Kerry LaDuke Others Present: Marty Malone, Russell Ferguson, JoAnn Ferguson, Parks Frady, Lance Bowser and Joan Bozlee The meeting was called to order Chairman Ray Sundling. The minutes of the previous meeting were approved as emailed. Unfinished Business Landfill Project Permit- Parks Frady states that the majority of the work on the Landfill Project is completed. He wants to address any concerns of the board members on the conditions of the Land use permit. Ray rode with the contractor prior to their reclamation and requested that the far end of the original road be left as it is and only the area where it curves around to the cut across be removed. The contractor did a good job removing the cut across and reclaiming the temporary road areas. There may be a section of the road that will need to be rolled at a later date. Reseeding has yet to be done. Russ was concerned about weeds invading the area. Parks states after reseeding they usually let it grow for 2 years and spray on the 3rd year. He will have his crew do the spraying. The board and county commissioner are satisfied with the reclamation work that's been done. Mission Field Crack Seal Project- Lance Bowser of Robert Peccia & Associates reported on the Mission Field Crack Seal Project. There have been two 2 day closures so far and the work is approximately 75-80% done.

The Center for Natural Lands Management strives to assist Joint Base Lewis-McChord in the conservation of its natural resources within the framework of the military training mandate. Joint Base Lewis- McChord and its conservation partners have shared interests because: Healthy natural ecosystems are essential for realistic and sustainable training lands. Rare species recovery throughout the region reduces the burden of recovery on any single landowner or site. Pest plants harm natural areas and reduce their suitability for military training.

This study was a two-year collaborative eflort between the Montana Department of Transportation (MDT) Aeronautics Division, the Federal Aviation Administration, Wilbur Smith and Associates and Morrison Maierle Inc. The enclosed study is an effort to break down aviation's significant contributions in Montana and show how these impacts affect economies on a statewide and local level. Depending on your location, you may also find enclosed several copies of an individual economic summary specific to your airport. Results ofthe study clearly show that Montana's 120 public use airports are a major catalyst to our economy. Montana enplanes over 1.5 million prissengers per year at our 15 commercial service airports, half of whom are visiting tourists. The economic value of aviation is over $1.56 billion and contributes nearly 4.5 percent to our total gross state product. There arc 18,759 aviation dependent positions in Montana, accounting for four percent of the total workforce and $600 million in wages. In addition to the economic benefits, the study also highlights how Montana residents increasingly depend on aviation to support their healtþ welfare, and safety. Montana airports support critical services for medical care, agriculture, recreation, emergency access, law enforcement, and fire fighting.
