April Airport operations were 8,294. Airport and City staff are negotiating with a firm for the Master Plan update study. The Airport has a grant offer from the FAA for $150,000 for this study. The goal is to start this process in August. An agenda letter will be taken to Council for acceptance of the grant money from the FAA. The South Ramp Project bids have been reissued and are now due back June 14. In an effort to conserve energy, all City buildings will be turning up the thermostat to 78° and the employees being allowed to dress "business casual." At the Airport, the security lighting can be lessened without losing the overall effectiveness of the lighting. Rod is discussing different possibilities with Skip's Electric staff. Rod announced that the Airport's proposed budget for Fiscal Years 2001-02 and 2002-03 will be presented to the City Council on June 12 at 4:00 p.m. and invited the Committee members to attend. Eagle Flight for the physically and mentally challenged is now scheduled for Saturday, October 6, 2001. The Sunrise Rotary of Fullerton organizes this event.
