GENERAL AVIATION COMMITTEE UPDATE
Mr. Richard DesPortes reported the General Aviation Committee, consisting of
the following volunteer?s: Mr. Bill Buck, Mr. Chris Cook, Mr. Steven Hewlett,
Mr. Dean King, Mr. Jack Wright, and Mr. Desportes, held the first meeting on
January 12, 2015. These are Columbus Airport Tenants and long time aviators.
At the meeting items discussed was the adoption of the non-aeronautical
storage, vehicle access to the hangars, and hangar rental rates, Mr. DesPortes
provided copies of drawings to the Commissioner?s where he has measured the
fence line, without any obstruction, this will add more space to the areas in
meeting the criteria in keeping away by ten feet from the fence. He is not
sure if the grassy areas may be a problem during the rainy seasons. He
suggested they may try and see if there is a problem, prior to making final
decisions.
Mr. Kerry Hand asked Mr. DesPortes to brief everyone on other ideas he may have.
Mr. DesPortes stated that Dr. Michael Gorum, tenant for over a year, is a local
pilot who had learned to fly at the previous flight school ran by Mr. Todd
Shellnutt, on the airport property. This is an important item of interest to
have another flight school at the airport.
Mr. Hand asked if there has been an interest from anyone concerning opening a
new flight school on the airport property.
Mr. Howell reported he has had three separate proposers since the closing of
Skyline Columbus previously ran by Mr. Todd Shellnutt. Mr. Howell and the
Columbus Airport Commission discussed this matter in the November 2014 work
session. The decision was made at that time the previous building would not be
available as an option, due to traffic issues at the top of the hill, and
another hangar tenant, .to open a new flight school. Mr. Howell has been very
liberal in communicating with proposers of possible modifications made to
Hangar 13, or if someone is interested in placing a modular office building
outside the fence line. If a modular building is chosen, the Columbus Airport
Commission will add a gate, for their access to the offices. To date no formal
proposal has been received, only exploratory meetings with Mr. Howell have
taken place regarding opening a new flight school. Mr. Howell is interested,
and both encouraging and flexible with the proposers this far, as long as they
are meeting the minimal standards.
Mr. Desportes suggested maybe putting some pressure on the three contacts, in
hopes of squeezing and corralling them, may be a realistic option, to increase
the current revenue.
Mr. Flanagan told Mr. Desportes the Columbus Airport Commission will take all
this information in consideration.
Mr. Howell stated revenue has not been an issue and has not been discussed with
the three contacts. As candidates will be given breaks on any buildings on
the premises.
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF THE AIRFIELD FENCING BIDDING AND CONSRUCTION MANAGEMENT
WORK ORDER FOR REYNOLDS, SMITH & HILLS
Mr. Howell reported the Columbus Airport Commission recalls the FAA granted the
Columbus Airport $1.200, 000.00 to replace the airfield perimeter fence. The
fence design was conducted by Michael Baker, the previous engineering
consulting firm. The grant is a 90/10 grant with our ten percent coming from
the passenger facility charges and state funds. Our current Aviation
consultant Reynolds, Smith & Hills, have two of their staff present in the
meeting today. They have submitted a draft work order for services in support
of this project. Services to be provided are bidding, including development of
bid documents and contracts, construction administration, and Resident Project
Representative Services. These are the same services that were normally
provided by the previous consultant, Michael Baker, Inc. had proposed for the
project when Michael Baker, Inc. had completed our grant application for the
project in 2014. We have had the grant and FAA will start inquiring since it
has been six-eight months to draw off the grant. Mr. Howell recommended
approval of the work order and that the Columbus Airport Commission Chair signs
the document
Motion by Mr. Kerry Hand to consider approval of the Airfield Fencing Bidding
and Construction Management work order for Reynolds, Smith & Hills for the
Columbus
Airport as presented; seconded by Mr. Thomas Forsberg and unanimously approved
by the
Commission. Ayes: 3 / No: 0
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF THE PASSENGER FACILITY CHARGE (PFC) APPLICATION WORK ORDER
WITH REYNOLDS, SMITH & HILLS
Mr. Howell reported in the past, the Columbus Airport Commission has been
granted authority from the Federal Aviation Administration to collect and use
the Passenger Facility Charges as provided by the Federal law. The Columbus
Airport Commission has for many years had a passenger facility charge
application with FAA. Passenger facility charges provide $4.50 for each
enplanement, boarding at the airport, with them keeping nineteen cents for each
one collected; we receive the rest of the collection authority from the
airline. Passenger Facility Charges as normally used to meet the Columbus
Airport Commission local share requirements for the Airport Improvement Program
grants. The Commission?s collection authority for the current application will
expire February 1, 2015. The Commission is required to file a new application
with Federal Aviation Administration to get approval to collect and use
Passenger Facility Charges for future projects. This effort will improve the
creation of a project funding plan, consulting with the Federal Aviation
Administration, meeting with affected air carriers, preparation, and submission
of the Passenger Facility Charge application to the Federal Aviation
Administration. The Columbus Airport Commission selected Reynolds, Smith &
Hills as their Aviation General Consultant in 2014. Reynolds, Smith & Hills
has a great deal of expertise in Passenger Facility Change Applications and at
the request of the Airport Director has submitted a draft work order to prepare
the Columbus Airport Commission?s next application. The cost for the work will
be $26,765.00 as the process takes ten to twelve months, depending on the
approval time at Federal Aviation Administration. The cost has been split
between this fiscal year and the fiscal year of 2016. The initial cost for the
application will be borne by the Columbus Airport Commission however; the cost
of the application itself will be included in the application and will
ultimately be reimbursed for the total amount. Staff of the Columbus Airport
recommended approval of the work order and for the Columbus Airport Commission
Chair to sign the document.
Motion by Mr. Kerry Hand to consider approval of the Passenger Facility Charge
application work order with Reynolds, Smith & Hills for the Columbus Airport as
presented; seconded by Mr. Thomas Forsberg and unanimously approved by the
Commission. Ayes: 3 / No: 0
CONSIDER APPROVAL TO REVIEW AND THE ADJUSTMENTS OF HANGAR RATES
Mr. Howell reported this matter has been discussed for some time, most recently
at the recent GA Committee Meeting as mentioned by Mr. Desportes, General
Aviation Chairman. This comes to pass, as CSG is an obligated airport. The
airport receives federal funding such as AIP and PFC, as an obligated airport
each year we receive a grant we sign grant assurances. In the grant assurances
we indicate to the Federal Aviation Administration we will establish pricing
practices that are fair and reasonable, that maintain a rental structure that
makes the airport as self-sustaining as possible, and use reasonable
methodologies including the market value. Historically the majority of the
fiscal burden in supporting the airport has rested with the Commercial
airlines. Over the span of time this has created a situation where the CSG
cost per enplaned passenger is one of the highest in the United States. Given
the level of activity of the commercial airlines, the burden fails the fair and
reasonable test and creates a hindrance to the recruitment of additional air
service. The Columbus Airport Commission owns one hundred ten hangars, not
including community hangar spaces, or tie downs. The rates for the hangars
have not been adjusted in a number of years. To date the Columbus Airport
Commission maintains a hangar waiting list with twelve entities waiting for
hangar space, one of those being on the list for over a year. In 2014 Ms.
Hollis performed a study of what some of the competing airports in our area are
charging for their hangars. In reviewing the information it was determined
none of them meet the standards of the Columbus Airport, We have a good
facility and people do want to be at our airport. On both small and large
hangars we are behind several other airports. We could be in violation of
Federal Aviation Administration since we are not currently charging fair market
value. Mr. Howell is proposing a fifteen percent increase effective March 1,
2015 across the board. Then in January 2016 increase another ten percent. In
the spring of 2016, we will go back out and conduct another hangar study. With
these increases, beginning March 1, 2015 we will gain $7,000.00 extra in this
fiscal years. For the first half of 2016, it will be an additional $14,000.00
increase in revenue. With the increases our airport will continue to be less
than the other airports in the area. The General Aviation Committee is very
supportive of the increase of the hangar rates, and the reality is that with
our current cash flow, and where it is now. In addressing and managing the
facility in moving forward with only one carrier, we need to address expenses.
We do have a hangar waiting list, the non-aeronautical revenue, the cost fees;
we have to take an active approach managing the facility in moving forward with
what type of revenue comes into the airport.
Mr. Matt Hinkle acknowledged he is aware the current hangar rates are below
market value; however, he asked the Columbus Airport Commission to consider in
moving forward increasing the hangar rent. The aircraft owners have to pay
evaloram taxes themselves which is a total cost of their planes being parked at
the airport. Those property taxes are a part of the current hangar rents.
Another item to consider would include repairs to the older hangars.
Mr. Howell reported that Public Safety will be providing hangar inspections,
primary goal that there are no fire hazards, which will be an addition to make
repairs needed. The work order system in place has been an asset where Tenants
were notified since the implementations of the new work order system, Tenants
can contact Ms. Mary Scarbrough for hangar repairs as needed.
Mr. Howell confirmed with Ms. Scarbrough there have been quite a few work
orders turned in over the past several months requested by the Tenants for
repairs in their hangars.
Mr. Richard Ramey, currently renting Hangar 5-D asked the Columbus Airport
Commission to solve and address all maintenance issues, needed repairs prior to
increasing the current hangar rent. Mr. Ramey reported currently has his plane
sitting in water, due to standing water. He thinks all repairs needed should
be done accordingly prior to raise the hangar rates not only for himself but,
for everyone.
Motion by Mr. Thomas Forsberg to consider approval to review and the adjustment
to hangar rates at the Columbus Airport as presented; seconded by Mr. Kerry
Hand and unanimously approved by the Commission. Ayes: 3 / No: 0
Mr. Kerry Hand commented in Mr. Ramey?s hangar and other needed repaired, he
encouraged the Columbus Airport Commission be advised with open issues as this
request.
Mr. Howell stated that these issues will be addressed, these repairs will be
identified, and a solution will be provided in addressing the repairs.
Mr. Hinkle stated through the years, the hangars are old and with the numerous
new black tops through the years, the taxiway has come up above ground level,
with the hangars remaining at the same ground level, as this has been the case
with his own hangar and where and why the waters goes into the hangars.
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF PUBLIC SAFET DEPARTMENT OVERTIME POLICY
Mr. Howell reported the federal work guidelines allow employers to set a policy
on the payment of overtime for Public Safety employees as long as such policies
do not violate federal laws. After the completion of last year?s salary survey
we determined that our overtime policy for shift working the Public Safety
employees far exceeds that of the federal standards. The majority of public
safety personnel are assigned to one of three work shifts. Each shift is
twenty-four hours on and forty-eight hours off. The pay periods for these
employees are one hundred and six hours versus the eighty hours for the regular
employees. We pay these shift employees approximately nineteen hours for every
twenty-four hours that are on duty. The remaining hours are designated for
sleep. Over the span of pay period, one shift will actually work seventy-seven
hours and the other two will work ninety-six hours, both below the one hundred
and six hour mark to normally quality for overtime. Currently when the public
safety officers are needed to respond during the designated sleep time, they
are compensated for the entire sleep period at time and a half. If an employee
is called in to cover a shift for a sick or vacationing employee, the employee
called in is paid time and a half for the entire shift. In most cases these
employees drawing this overtime pay have not exceed the one hundred and six
hours in the pay period, policy proved for them to be paid at the overtime
rate. The current policy creates a number of issues both fiscally and fairness
to other employees. The airlines reimburse us three hundred thousand dollars
per year for providing both police and fire safety presence to support the
airline operation. The existing policy artificially inflates those expenses by
charging overtime for hours that don?t actually qualify for that pay rate.
This in turn drives up the cost per enplaned passenger charged to the
carriers. For instance the public safety office in this fiscal year there was
a budget of twenty-six thousand plus change. With the remaining employees at
the airport only totaling thirteen thousand dollars. The higher numbers on the
enplaned contributes to the overall expenses of operating. With the current
structure of the public safety, overtime was being paid to those employees when
they had not exceeded the one hundred and six hours, where the regular
employees have to work over eighty hours to receive overtime pay. The
carriers pays the airport three hundred thousand dollars per year for police
support The proposal is to continue with the current structure and log it as
regular time, if they work sick or vacation time exceeding one hundred and six
hours.. Mr. Howell gave all public safety officers in attendance an opportunity
to ask questions or make comments concerning the public safety overtime policy
as provided.
Motion by Mr. Kerry Hand to approve the Public Safety Departments Overtime
Policy as presented; seconded by Mr. Thomas Forsberg and unanimously approved
by the Commission. Ayes: 3 / No: 0
CONSIDER APPROVAL OF THE COLUMBUS AIRPORT COMMISSION FEE SCHEDULE
Mr. Howell stated one of the most common comments received in meetings with the
Columbus Airport Commission customers is they request consistency in the
administration of policy. One area found to be lacking in the implementation
of fees for our services prior to moving forward with the reward program and
will be provided to all customers. In some areas they were inconsistent, and
some areas we don?t charge for services as an airport would normally collect
for. In resolving this Mr. Howell and Senior Staff has created the attached
fee schedule. Understanding that this will be a work in progress, we feel this
is a good start and approval will give staff a base line to work from. Staff
will review this schedule again during the fiscal year of 2016 budget process
and recommend any changes to be adopted. His schedule will be made part of the
2016 budget and get adopted in its final form when you adopt the 2016 budget.
In the future the schedule will be reviewed annually as part of the budget
process. Adoption of the schedule will begin the process of providing a
balanced and consistent approach to the charging of fees for services at the
Columbus Airport, and give direction to staff eliminating any guesswork on the
part of our customers or staff. This information will be added to the Columbus
Airport website for others to review.
The Columbus Airport Commission Fee Schedule was tabled and will be reviewed
again at the February 2015 Commission Meeting.
Motion by Mr. Kerry Hand to consider adoption of the Columbus Airport
Commission Fee Scheduled as presented; seconded by Mr. Thomas Forsberg and
unanimously approved by the
Commission. Ayes: 3 / No: 0

New Artwork has been placed in the terminal for 2015. Please take a
moment to look at the artwork at your convenience.
We will be attending the Schedulers and Dispatchers conference at the
end of the month. PowerPoint Presentation, Banners and flyers have been

PROPELLERS
Ms. Jennifer Wright provided the following update on Propellers:
? In October, Propeller?s cut total expenses around $4100 based on current
budget, and incurred a net loss of $2600.
? Jennifer Wright cut total expenses from prior fiscal year by $3100 and
decreased net loss by $3800.

? In December, Propeller?s cut total expenses around $3800, and incurred a net
loss of $4700.
? Jennifer Wright cut total expenses from prior fiscal year by $1700 and
decreased net losses by $900.
? Sales have decreased in comparison for the months of October to December 2013
due to lack of travelers in/out bound, cancellation of flights, and Delta
shuttling passengers via bus.
? Delta shuttled passengers on many occasions due to passengers exceeding
weight limit with luggage, flights delayed due to maintenance/ weather issues,
and aiding the patrons to make their connecting flights out of Atlanta.
? Jennifer Wright has been able to maintain the strategic goals of cutting
total expenses based on budget by $15,600 from July to December 2014.
? Propeller?s goal for fiscal year 2015 is to cut total expenses by $24,000.
Mr. DesPortes asked if Propeller?s is being advertised to the General
Aviation/Tenants at the airport. If discounts are available for the Tenants
and if their parking vouchers can be validated.
Ms. Wright stated yes.
Ms. Belobradic suggested more advertising to be available in the Fixed Based
Operations building. This information would draw in more business to
Propellers and was new information to the audience.
Ms. Renfroe stated that the Fixed Based Operations does have brochures and
information readily available for the customers on Propellers.
Ms. Hollis stated menus are available too at the Fixed Base Operations.
Mr. Howell provided some concrete numbers in reviewing the loss in the
restaurant which was about $73,000.00, in December 2014 Ms. Wright knocked off
one thousand dollars off her overall loss year after year. If she continues to
do that, she will know off a total of twelve thousand dollars off her revenue,
being thirteen percent increase in her revenue. She has worked very hard, very
proactive, and the Columbus Airport Commission is very fortunate to have Ms.
Wright as an employee.

are
Several charters already on the books and more Teams calling for future games.
? Sonya and I are excited about attending the upcoming schedulers and
dispatchers conference.
We will be marketing the FBO as well as the Columbus Airport in setting up a
booth with
The banners you see here today. This conference is a meet and greet with the
people that schedule and dispatch flights all over the world. We are looking
forward to setting up a business relationship with new companies that might be
flying to Florida or surrounding
States so they will look at the FBO for their fueling needs.
Ms. Renfroe provided a Fuel Price Comparison Chart to the Commissioner?s.
Mr. Hand inquired what exactly is reflected in the Jet A fuel.
Ms. Renfroe stated both Sports and Justice Flights are included.
Mr. Hand if the Sports and Justice Flights are under contract?
Ms. Renfroe stated sometimes they are under contract, sometimes retail.
Mr. Hand if these provides large increases?
Ms. Renfroe reported both she and Ms. Hollis would be attending an upcoming
conference in San Hosea, California which would serve as a meet and greet.
Ms. Renfroe reported on the Shell Flight Plan, passport book, Flightways
Columbus is one of twelve Fixed Based Operations on the flight plan, in
providing more exposure.
Mr. Renfroe thanked Mr. Joey Rosier, Master Built, Mr. Rick Payne, and Mr.
Martin Flournoy for allowing she and Ms. Hollis to photograph their planes
for the new Flilghtways Columbus brochure, as provided to the Columbus Airport
Commission.
Mr. Howell introduced Mr. Bruce Anderson, as the new Maintenance Manager at the
airport.
Mr. Flanagan welcomed Mr. Anderson to the Columbus Airport Commission.
OTHER MATTERS
Mr. Matt Hinkle stated his purpose today is to bring an issue that is safety
related and has the appearance of discriminatory business practices to your
General Aviation Tenants on the airport property. In the T-Hangar Leases, on
item four it states the following:
?T-Hangars will be vacated immediately if, for any reason, more than fifty
percent of the interest held by the original Lessee is sold, transferred or
otherwise conveyed to a new owner. Such new owner and any remaining original
Lessee will have no right of continued occupancy?
Mr. Hinkle provided each of the Commissioner?s with the Federal Aviation
Administration registration for three ?N? plane tail numbers leased to one
individual but, only one of the aircrafts are in their ownership.
Mr. Hinkle reported he had two reasons for bringing this information to the
Columbus Airport Commission.
1. He would like to eliminate the taxi hazards that currently exist around
Hangar 6-D and he does fly other owners aircraft in that area and he is
responsible as well as liable for those aircraft while under his command.
2. It is very concerning to Mr. Hinkle that a model tenant would be evicted
from their hangar on a technicality of hangar policy during the same time
another tenant has been allowed to disregard the entire premise of why someone
would have continued use of a hangar to begin with.
Mr. Hinkle asked the Commission Board, when he and the other General Aviation
Tenants on the field expect action by them to rectify this situation? He would
appreciate within their answer to include an exact time frame and method of
corrective action.
Mr. Winfield Flanagan addressed and provided a letter to notify and we will
enforce as of March 31, 2015.
At the end of the January 28, 2015 Columbus Airport Commission Meeting Public
Agenda, the Columbus Airport Commission went into a closed session to discuss a
personal matter. The meeting went back into the Public session on the motion
of Mr. Thomas Forsberg and seconded by Mr. Kerry Hand and unanimously approved
by the Commission. Ayes: 3 / No: 0
There being no further business, the meeting adjourned at 11:08 A.M.
