the Airport Commission were approved as read.
CORRESPONDENCE
Secretary Engel reported receiving information regarding the Wisconsin Airport Management Association annual
conference, this year in LaCrosse from 10/20-22, and an Airport Management workshop in Mosinee, on 9/10. After
discussion, it was agreed Kyle should register for both and submit the total cost estimate for approval at next month's
Commission meeting. Engel also reported receiving from Clarence Schampers a list of items for which Schampers is
seeking reimbursement with proposed amounts. See later minutes discussion.
A formal letter of resignation was received from Colin Isom, whereby he agreed to continue in the role until such time
as his replacement was retained. With the hiring of Hotvedt, the resignation is now effective. Isom expressed interest
in being retained as the Maintenance Manager following the retirement of Schampers. The resignation was officially
accepted by the Commission. See further discussion in the minutes.

with an extra 5x8 he had and installed the new Wisconsin flag that was on hand. The old flags had been removed as

REPORTS
A. FINANCIAL/TREASURER'S REPORT
Review of Financial Statements and Budget Performance: Treasurer Brunson reviewed the monthly
financial statements, indicating that overall, most items remained consistent with budgeted amounts,
except 100LL margins in May and overall JetA results discussed last month. Engel explained that at
the present pace, compensation costs would exceed the budget by about $6k by year-end as a function
of the timing and transition of Schampers, Isom, and Hotvedt. Other trends are constant. A motion
was made by Commissioner Bloedorn, seconded by Hauer, to approve the Treasurer's report. Carried
in a voice vote.
Pricing Strategies Discussion: No further discussion.
Other Financial Matters: No further discussion.
B. AIRPORT DIRECTOR/MANAGER REPORT
New Airport Manager Hotvedt presented his first official report to the Commission. Kyle will work with Colin
on his return later this week and assured a smooth transition based on his earlier discussions with Colin and
support from various Commissioners in his first days on the job.
ARPA funds follow-up: remains a to-do, Kyle to submit support of sufficient expense and evidence of
payment
Follow up with DNR regarding dredging permits: Kyle to discuss with Colin and look into obtaining a
copy of the last dredging permit application for use in preparing a fresh one.
CONSIDER/APPROVE ACTION ITEMS
A. Planning Session Follow-up and Possible Actions in Connection Therewith
Obstruction Clearing Matters: meetings held with Omnni/Westwood who will take the lead on this
project, working with the Bureau, advising the Commission as to needs and updates
Petition in Support of Refreshed Master Plan and Related Matters: Commissioner Engel presented a
refreshed list of items either in need of a petition because they were new to the Master Plan update or
were timing out on a previous petition. Discussion followed. A motion was made by Commissioner
Bloedorn, seconded by Brunson, to initiate the petition process utilizing the list. A public hearing
will be held on the front of the July 15, 2025 Commission meeting (at 4:30 PM, at the Airport), in
anticipation of getting the Resolution on the Agenda and approved at the August City Council meeting.

hearing process and obtaining proper Sponsor resolution and approvals.

other matters of interest. Volunteer meetings are scheduled for July 15th and August 12th, at 6:00 PM in
Hangar 20.
Fence gate relocation: Kyle to discuss with Fortress Fence. Schampers reported that fencing materials
removed from the location of construction gate in anticipation of replacement, remained available next
to the maintenance hangar and might possibly be used as part of this project to avoid some material
costs.
Electrical support at the beacon: Bloedorn meeting with Olson electric to discuss options
Layout changes and related implications: Changes to last year's layout should enable more use of
former 9/27 grass areas for spectator parking and people transports will empty to the East of former
3/21 grass.
Budget plan and approval: initial expectations are that sponsorship funds should approximate last year
Page 2 of 24

spot landing and furthest flight contest to keep the kids interested during lulls in the action. EAA Chapter to
help out with the airplanes and perhaps provide assistance on the Mic with content. PA system arranged.

Therewith
It was agreed that Treasurer Brunson would work with new AM Hotvedt and Colin Isom to craft a resolution of
the roles and responsibilities of the relative positions of new AM and Maintenance Manager, with the
expectation that Isom would assume the role of Maintenance Manager following the retirement of Schampers.
Brunson to come back to the Commission for approval of the recommended salary adjustment for Isom and an

Assumptions -
DeGroot numbers stand
State works with DeGroot
Page 49 of 62
Engineering fee estimated
Admin fee estimated
Contingency estimated
Numbers are rounded
Conclusions -
Out of pocket cost, w/o State and 3 hangars contributing ... About $110-115k local funds needed
Local funding required will be somewhere between $70k -80k if assumptions hold up
We benefit to the extent of about $35k to use State 80/20 funds
Cautions -
Multiple bidders may be required
Process might delay project indefinately
Delays might drastically change the numbers
DeGroot numbers likely to change in a State bid project
Many other issues

Sewer & Water Project Planning and Funding
Discussion
July 10, 2025
Page 53 of 62
Meeting Objectives
• Explore the possibilities of moving forward on
a sewer and water project at the Airport
• Understand level of interest by hangar owners
• Discuss estimated project costs
• Understand financial implications
• Discuss cost implications to hangar owners
and Airport sponsor ... As a means of going
forward
Page 54 of 62
Things to Consider
• Location of main water and sewer lines relative to hangars
• Water ready hangars and future hangar development
• Number of interested parties (ready to go)
• Safety considerations on Airport
• Availability of AIP (Airport Improvement Project) funding
• Cost differential associated with AIP vs. local funds use
• Timeline to construction and other implications
• Cost per hangar/cost per sewer/water available plots
• Availability of Sponsor funds and timing thereof
• Creative funding alternatives ... If any
Page 55 of 62
Page 56 of 62
Location
• Between hangar rows 2 & 3 due to preponderance of hangar
ready and new development plots
• Hangar row 1 can access if desired directly to Gumaer Rd
• Hydrant placement provides best on-Airport access
• Best argument for safety objective support
• Ditch provides reasonably easy access to both rows of hangars
• Will enhance marketability of available hangar plots
Page 57 of 62
Cost to Construct
• DeGroot proposal for both sewer and water, with 3 hookups,
to cost approximately $170,000
• Westwood estimates for sewer and water substantially
greater, nearly double, if done as a State project
– Engineering fees
– BOA administrative fees
– Contingencies
– Items required of certified bidders, etc.
Page 58 of 62
Funding Alternatives
• Bureau of Aeronautics willingness to provide 80/20 funding
for water portion only
– Local funding only required for 20% of water side of project
– Must follow AIP funding guidelines
– Sewer portion totally locally funded
• Using DeGroot numbers (if possible) result in a differential of
about $35k with and without 80/20
– Most likely greater if DeGroot unwilling or BOA unwilling
– Likely changes the timeline
• If State was to bid the entire project, all costs would likely be
substantially higher under all considerations
• All alternatives will require funding beyond initial hangar
Page 59 of 62
owners
Hangar Owner Implications
• Cost per initial hangar owner likely to be
somewhere between $17k and $21k
• Additional plot leases on row 3 and further
hookups on row 2 would require buy-in at that
cost
• Additional cost would consist of sewer/water
utility charges for service ... No estimate at
present
Page 60 of 62
Where Are We on This
• Use of 80/20 funding not likely worth the
effort or additional costs
• 80/20 may not work with DeGroot numbers as
is
• All methods will require either more hangar
owner enlistment or substantial local funds
• Airport reserves are not sufficient nor
available for this project, at present
Page 61 of 62
Discussion
• Creative alternatives
– Private utility of some sort
– Private funding
– Investment/Contribution/Legacy
• Possible use of grant/development funds by
our sponsor
• Other
