Your subject must specifically relate to matters under the jurisdiction of the Airport Advisory Committee, whether on the agenda or not. The Airport Advisory Committee should not engage in a discussion regarding comments because it was not part of the publicly noticed agenda. Upon conclusion of this Citizen Participation segment, members of the audience are not allowed further comment unless they are participating in a public hearing or if specifically allowed by a majority vote of the Airport Advisory Committee due to involvement in an agenda item. Sam Taber passed along the request to include the Breast Cancer Awareness runway painting on the September meeting agenda. Approval of Minutes  A motion to approve the July 8, 2024, meeting minutes was made by Mike Stark and seconded by Kim Weckerly. The motion passed unanimously. Standing and Old Business 1. Airport Manager’s Report • Jason Equitz shared that the Bureau of Aeronau�cs had authorized a request for proposal for a firm to design a plan for the hanger expansion. The process of iden�fying a firm will take approximately one month. A kickoff mee�ng, which will include the members of the AAC, is expected to be held later this fall. • Based on Doug Gauger's feedback, the search for a courtesy car has been put on hold indefinitely. The current arrangement with a service provider’s availability to provide shutle service when needed has been working very well. • Doug has been in contact with a local airplane mechanic who indicated an interest in ren�ng a por�on of the FBO hangar. 2. Ordinance Review Jason indicated that the ordinance review process is expected to be completed by year- end. The next step in the process is to submit the ordinance to the Bureau of Aeronautics (BOA) for review. However, because we have a couple of other things going  on with BOA, Jason does not want to add anything else to the mix right now. He noted that we are currently working with BOA on the Master planning/ALP, the potential to begin the design of the next hangar area, and a development adjacent to the airport. 3. Airport Layout Plan, Master Plan, and Planning Advisory Committee The Planning Advisory Commitee is scheduled to meet next on September 17, beginning at 3:00, followed by a public mee�ng beginning at 5:00. Comprehensive material regarding the Master Plan Process is posted on the Village of East Troy’s website. New Business None Adjourn:  Motion to adjourn was made by Mike Starck and seconded by Kim Weckerly. The motion passed unanimously at 6:50 PM. Next Meeting: 9/9/2024 at 6:00 PM at the FBO. Respectfully Submitted, Jim Holm, Chairperson
